.DISCUSSION...

Mid and high clouds will stream in from the west while maintaining
a dry forecast at the burn site today. The burn site will be
mostly sheltered from the stronger westerly winds that will funnel
down the Wenatchee Valley from the Cascade Crest, however there
is a 40% chance of seeing wind gusts of 25-28 mph for periods of
time after 1600 local time today before relaxing after 2100 local.
Thursday will be drier with lower humidities but similar wind
trends and a larger expanse of high clouds moving in from the
west.
