.DISCUSSION...
Breezy southwest winds are expected today, with gusts of 25-35
mph. Afternoon RH values are expected to be between 30-40%, so
there is minor risk of unwanted fire spread today. Given the
breezy winds, ventilation will be good. Winds turn westerly on
Wednesday, becoming a bit weaker but still modestly breezy (gusts
around 20 mph) which will maintain the good ventilation. Mostly
dry conditions are expected through the day on Saturday, aside
from some isolated flurries this morning and a low chance of light
rain south of I-70 early Friday morning.
