enough moisture with it for isolated and gusty virga showers and
perhaps a dry thunderstorm this afternoon. Brief, localized, and

any dry thunderstorms or virga showers. A backdoor front is forecast
to bring a gentle southeasterly breeze to the burn area tonight with
humidities a little higher on Wednesday. There is a slight chance
that gusty virga showers will return Wednesday afternoon.
