.DISCUSSION...

Monday will bring mostly sunny conditions with likely even less
in the way of mid and high cloud cover compared to today. Light
near surface winds from the S to SW around 5 mph in the morning
will increase a bit into the afternoon, generally in the 5 to 8
mph from the southwest. Transport winds will max out from the
southwest in the 8 to 12 mph range. With slight moisture return,
relative humidity values are expected to be a bit higher than
today, likely bottoming out in the mid-to-upper 30 percent range
in the burn site area. Mixing heights are forecast to reach just
over 5000 feet Monday afternoon. Fog formation is not expected
Monday night. Dry conditions are expected to persist through
Tuesday, though more widespread high cloud cover is expected on
