.DISCUSSION...Low fire weather concerns the next several days due
to lower than average temperatures, unsettled wet weather, and
elevated afternoon humidity. While isolated thunderstorms are
possible in the mountains, lightning will be largely infrequent
with any storm. A warming trend will begin Monday with near to
above average temps and dry conditions returning by midweek.
***Thunderstorms imply strong gusty winds ***
***Winds are 20 foot 10 minute averages ***
***CWR: Chance of wetting rain 0.10 or greater ***
***Ventilation Index is derived from transport wind
multiplied by the mixing height in 100`s of ft.
Categories are a generalized indicator and users
are encourage to develop criteria that are
suitable and representative of dispersion
conditions in their local area of interest.
Categories: low (< 200), moderate (200-500),
high (500-700), and very high (> 700).
-Note: Max transport winds may not occur
at the same time as max mixing height. ***
