Service.

.DISCUSSION...A ridge of high pressure will gradually approach the
region today, moving overhead on Saturday and Saturday night. This
will bring increasingly stable conditions with progressively poorer
mixing and clearing. A weak wave of low pressure passing by to the
north is poised to improve clearing to around 500 on Sunday. An
approaching system from the east Pacific will further improve
mixing and clearing on Monday thanks to an increase in southwest winds.
Excellent clearing is expected Tuesday as the system passes through.
Models for the last two days have continued to cut down on potential
snow amounts for this burn site, with now only a 20% chance of snow
Tuesday. High pressure ridging then builds back in for Wednesday and
Thursday, with a return to poor mixing and clearing. Latest indications
suggest improvement in the next Friday to early the following week window
with a potential for another system to move through the area in this general
timeframe.
