.DISCUSSION...
Winds may see slight variation in direction throughout the day,
largely favoring a westerly component though perhaps starting a
bit north of west, and ending the day more to the south of west.
Speeds average 10-12 mph, with occasional gusts 15-20 mph. The
moderate wind speeds and deep mixing should allow for good to
excellent smoke dispersal.

Winds turn southerly this evening and increase quickly Thursday
morning, ahead of a cool front which will bring a chance of
showers and thunderstorms to the area by late Thursday afternoon.
