Modest northwest flow continues across the region as a short wave trough continues to translate east across the northern tier. Flow aloft will continue to moderate through the rest of the work week, as upper level ridging building across the Great Basin, continues to build into the Rockies. This will allow for less wind across the burn site, as well as, above seasonal temperatures through the rest of the work week. While there could be a few afternoon cumulus build ups over the higher terrain, generally dry conditions are expected across the burn site. .REST OF TODAY...
