Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Wrn Colorado and Ern Utah
National Weather Service Grand Junction CO
202 PM MDT Fri Jun 28 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Showers and thunderstorms will fire again today but coverage and
intensity should be less than seen recently. Moisture will start
decreasing through the day and again tomorrow so humidities will
also be lower. Even so, some isolated showers and storms remain
possible Saturday. Sunday onwards, moisture returns as flow
becomes southerly and a trough approaches from the west.
Widespread showers and storms are expected Sunday and Monday,
decreasing Tuesday into Wednesday. Dry conditions may build in for
the rest of the week as high pressure builds in overhead.

...GUSTY ERRATIC WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED NEAR ANY SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS...
