.DISCUSSION...
Good morning Amy,
Forecast looks pretty good for burning today. The only concern
will be the 20ft winds which could up to 20mph down there.
Prevailing wind direction will continue to be out of the NE at
5-10mph. Your transport winds will become due east as the day
progresses at around 10-15mph. Winds will remain gusty until
around 7PM and ease as the sun goes down.
The rest of the forecast looks good though! Plenty of solar time
to dry out your fuels and minimum RH values falling to around 45%
this afternoon. Dry air through the mixing layer should prevent
any kind of fog formation the day after the burn.
We`ll make sure we keep an eye on the site today and let you know
if anything changes, otherwise have a good burn!
