.DISCUSSION...

MUCH WARMER TEMPERATURES WILL GREET THE FIRST TWO DAYS OF THIS WEEK
WITH TUESDAY POSSIBLY REACHING RECORD HIGH READINGS. GOOD MIXING ON
TUESDAY WILL RESULT IN CONSIDERABLE DRYING TUESDAY AFTERNOON WITH
RELATIVE HUMIDITY LEVELS AROUND 30 PERCENT. THIS COMBINED WITH 10
HOUR FUEL VALUES AROUND 9 PERCENT AND GUSTY SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS WILL
INCREASE THE FIRE DANGER THREAT CONSIDERABLY.

THE THREAT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL RETURN BY WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON AND THE PROXIMITY OF A STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL
MAINTAIN THAT THREAT THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEKEND.
