.DISCUSSION...Moisture has started to increase over the area
today, with the peak in moisture anticipated tomorrow. Forecast
for the fire has a bit more uncertainty than usual as it sits
around the most westward point of the moisture surge. (That is,
areas west of the site will be dry and see little to no
precipitation, and precipitation will be much more widespread to
the east of the fire.) Regardless, showers will be around during
the day, with a 30-40 percent chance of wetting rainfall.
Conditions will dry out on Saturday, but some moisture will
linger Saturday into Sunday, bringing a threat of thunderstorms
that will produce gusty winds (20 percent chance each day). After
Friday, winds will tend to be generally light and terrain driven.

.FRIDAY...

Sky/weather.........Partly cloudy (45-55 percent cloud cover).
                    Isolated thunderstorms in the morning.
