.DISCUSSION...

Gusty northwesterly winds continue today with much drier airmass
and RH values. Min RH values look to range between 25-35 percent
this afternoon with pockets potentially falling below 25 percent,
especially for areas along and west of I-39/90 corridor. Mixing
heights will be deeper as well with the highest heights topping
off between 3.6-4.2 kft this afternoon. As a result may see a bit
of elevated fire weather conditions today, but fuel conditions
remain on the wetter side. Winds will then gradually weakening
through this evening as high pressure begins to work its way into
the area for Monday.
