.DISCUSSION...

The wind near the wildfire site is currently around 5-10 mph out of
varying directions. Relative humidity values are around 50 percent
at this time. The wind should increase this afternoon out of the
southwest around 10-15 mph with gusts up to 20 mph. The minimum
relative humidity values today should only drop to around 25-30
percent. The main concern/uncertainty will be the potential for
light rain showers or a thunderstorm to move near the wildfire site.
That potential will be from now through early this afternoon. The
chances are very low (10-20 percent) for showers or storms but that
will be something to keep an eye on. The main threat would be gusty
and sporadic wind along with lightning if any storms do move near
the site.
