.DISCUSSION...

Fairly quiet weather is forecast with the main fire weather
concern being elevated to high dispersions. Outside of that,
southeast winds this morning become southerly around midday
leading moisture feeding in from the Gulf. Surface winds should
increase over the next few hours with sustained speeds around 10
to 15 mph with gusts to 18 to 22 mph. Winds will begin to decrease
during the evening hours, with light easterly winds possible
overnight. MinRH values should only fall to about 50-55 percent,
though near excellent overnight recovery is expected.
