.DISCUSSION...

Relatively quiet weather will prevail with high pressure to our
south and low pressure passing through the Pacific Northwest
region. This pattern will result in modest onshore winds with
breezy conditions especially during the afternoon hours. Daytime
humidity levels at the burn site should drop into the 30 to lower
40 percent range, with a low potential they could drop even a bit
lower than that. Overnight recoveries at the 5,000 ft elevation
should be modest and around 50 percent at best. Since this forecast
is for a few days out please note that specific forecast details
will become clearer closer to the anticipated burn day. So please
reach out for updates as needed.
