.DISCUSSION...Temperatures are expected to be a degree or two warmer
this afternoon as compared to yesterday, with similar min RH values
this afternoon and decent recoveries expected tonight. Up-valley
south to southwest winds are expected to develop in the Klamath
drainage again this afternoon, similar to yesterday afternoon.
Portions of the burn site may be sheltered from these winds, while
areas closer to the 96 may be more exposed. In these exposed areas,
gusts of 10 to 15 mph are possible. Winds significantly weaken this
evening and overnight.
The marine layer is forecast to compress late tonight,and while the burn
site is expected to remain below the inversion, areas slightly higher in
elevation may see a period of low RH values and light NNE winds early
Friday morning, followed by improvement mid-morning as daytime heating
lifts the inversion height. The wind evolution is expected to be similar
Friday, while afternoon temperatures trend a little higher with lower
min RH values in the afternoon.
