.DISCUSSION...

Mostly sunny and dry for today with highs in the mid 80s. Winds will
become southerly at 6 to 12 mph by late morning with gusts to
around 20 mph by this afternoon. This new issuance includes
updated lower humidity values - afternoon RH values will fall to
around 25%. Clouds should build in this evening with shower
chances. Shower and thunderstorms activity is expected to be
weakening as it approaches the burn site and very scattered at
first. Better coverage could come to the burn site early Thursday
morning. Additional isolated to scattered showers and
thunderstorms will be possible Thursday afternoon and evening into
Friday morning. Precipitation chances are as follows for tonight
through Thursday afternoon:

0.1" - 70%
0.2" - 50%
0.3" - 40%
0.4" - 20%
0.5" or greater - 15%

Given nature of the activity with decaying storms, overall
coverage and duration will likely be low overall. Duration would
likely be an hour or less. However, if a storm moves directly over
the burn site, heavier rainfall will be possible, but the overall
chance of this is only around 20% at this time.
