.DISCUSSION...

Low fire danger is forecast today with RH values only slipping
into the mid to lower-40%s in the burn area today. Light
southeasterly winds of about 5mph will grow in speed over the
course of the day as the southerly component of the wind grows. By
3pm, wind speeds should average near 10mph. Expect dry conditions
through the day, but by 3pm, a 20% chance of rain showers
develops. These showers would produce very little moisture, but
may produce some wind gusts of various directions. Nearly no
