...REMARKS...
We will continue to need spot forecasts into the future but I will
submit another request daily so that we can submit other
observations.
From NWS: Spoke with POC main concerns are thunderstorms and any
impactful wind (any direction no gust thresholds). Crews will be on
the fire for the next week to week and a half and would like a 7-day
outlook included. Spots will be due at 6 PM the night before with the
forecast starting at 7 AM the following day. Separate from the other
Woods spot could not get in touch with other spot POC to confirm if
they need both. Scheduled spots through the 17th.
