.DISCUSSION...
Friday looks like it will stay dry with mostly clear skies for
most fire districts. Surface winds should stay southerly at around
5-10 mph through the afternoon, with mixing heights in excess of
5500 ft. Portions of Cherokee, Angelina, and Nacogdoches Counties
in TX may see some shower development beginning early afternoon.
Models are suggesting these should be relatively scattered, but
they could still have impacts to burn operations in the area.
