.DISCUSSION...
Cooler air will continue through the period, bringing a drier
airmass along with it. MinRH values are anticipated to begin
dropping below 40% next week. Therefore, fire danger concerns are
elevated through the week which is only compounded by a growing
drought throughout the region. Winds are expected to be light,
which will dampen the overall severity of any fire danger.
