.DISCUSSION...
Southeast winds will persist into tomorrow, but should start
weakening as a cold front slowly approaches the area. Winds will
gradually shift to the northeast and north starting on Saturday
and continuing into Sunday as a cold front slowly drifts south
across the region. These northerly winds will continue into
Monday. This front will bring higher rain chances to the area
Saturday night into Sunday night. High pressure will move over the
area Monday night, and winds will shift to the northeast and then
to the southeast by Tuesday. Humidity levels will drop quite a bit
on Monday, with min RH`s falling into the lower 30s to possibly
upper 20s. Should start to quickly see a rise in moisture as winds
shift around to onshore on Tuesday.
1)There is a moderate chance of light to moderate patchy fog during
the overnight hours through around sunrise on Saturday (midnight
through around 8 AM).
2)Winds are expected to become light and variable in the overnight
hours (after midnight through the morning hours).
3)Models are generally in agreement with a slow frontal passage
with it passing through the burn site around Sunday morning.
However, there may be rain out ahead of this front late
Saturday night. It`s unlikely, but can`t completely ruled out,
that there will be northerly winds late night/overnight on Saturday.
