.DISCUSSION...Winds will pick up aloft with clouds moving through
from time to time. These stronger winds aloft will result in
enough mixing to produce fair smoke dispersal. Inversions are
likely to set up overnight, however, so the period of mixing and
fair dispersal will be brief for maybe a couple hours in the
early afternoon. Conditions are expected to remain dry through
the week with next chance of precipitation arriving this weekend.
