.DISCUSSION...A weak upper level trough is set up over the western US
this weekend. This atmospheric feature is fairly stagnate leading to
temperatures just at normal or seasonal average for the Trinity River.
Expect continued afternoon upslope winds with gusts up to 15mph at
20ft. The aspect of the fire will mean that afternoon temperatures will
rise a little later in the morning than the surrounding areas. This will
keep overnight RH recoveries remaining over the incident through dawn.
Ample cloud coverage, yet no wetting rain or drizzle is expected for the
next 7-10days at this point. The daily weather conditions will be
repetitive through most of the coming work week.
