.DISCUSSION...
A few showers will move across the area early this morning, mainly
north of highway 2. Therefore these should mostly stay north of
your burn site, although there is a very low potential they could
affect your site. Precipitation amounts with these showers should
be very low, less than a tenth of an inch. These showers should
exit the area around or after sunrise. The rest of the day then
looks rain free.
