.DISCUSSION...

Decaying shower to the north that may track over the burn area.
Given the state of the shower, most likely any significant wind
gusts out of it are done for the evening. Still would be on the
lookout in the next hour or two for a rouge gust, maybe 15 to 25
mph out of the north as the shower moves over. Tomorrow, we`ll be
looking at another hot day with RH values down in the mid teens,
and winds right around 15 mph out of the south for most of the
afternoon. That will support elevated Fire Conditions for most of
the afternoon.
