.DISCUSSION...

Good morning Amy,

Looks like a good day to burn. We`re expecting mostly sunny skies
with winds out of the SSE at less than 8 mph. Could see a few
gusts to 15mph by the afternoon if we mix into the transport
winds.

Minimum RH values will fall into the low 40s this afternoon and
with southerly winds it`s unlikely they`ll fall significantly
below the forecast.

The next chance of precip isn`t until late afternoon Tuesday and
it`s unlikely that the Oconee will see any significant rainfall
totals with it. Mostly a couple rumbles of thunder and around a
tenth of an inch of new rain.

We`ll have the day shift keep an eye on the RAWS for you and give
you a heads up if anything goes sideways. Otherwise, have a good
burn and let us know if you need anything.
