.DISCUSSION...RH will be high Tuesday afternoon for the start of
this prescribed burn with forecast values around 85 percent.
However, this is sort of a tricky area near the river with RH
values dropping down significantly (~60%) away from the river.
That said, still high RH values expected in the afternoon with
values quickly approaching 95+ percent after daytime heating.
Winds are expected to be out of the northwest with speeds dropping
significantly after sunset. Lastly, expecting a strong inversion
around this area in the afternoon, so smoke may disperse poorly in
the lower levels as the top of the inversion could be around
700-1000 feet in the afternoon.
