.DISCUSSION...Cooler than normal temperatures the next few days
will keep humidity up. Gusty east to southeast winds Sunday into
Monday will increase fire weather concerns. However, a low
pressure system will advance northeast across the fire weather
zones Sunday evening through Monday bringing a potential for light
rain showers. Then, conditions should remain mostly cool with a
slight warming trend to near normal into the weekend.
