.DISCUSSION...
Near Red Flag conditions will continue near Delta Junction
into this evening due to strong Chinook winds and low humidity
values. Humidity values will recover this evening and winds
will subside overnight. Humidity values will remain near 30
percent through much of the week, with slightly lower values
by late week. Winds look to remain under thresholds once they
dissipate this evening. A few showers will be possible Monday,
and again during the Wednesday through Friday time frame.
