.DISCUSSION...
Heading into the weekend, there is a medium to high (50-70%)
chance of minimum relative humidity values falling below
35 percent as dry air continues to filter into the region.
20 foot winds are expected to remain less than 10 mph through the
weekend, but fuels will continue to dry. A prolonged dry period
with no appreciable rainfall may result in elevated fire weather
danger heading into next week.
