.DISCUSSION...

Lighter winds mainly from the southeast are expected at the burn
site on Thursday, resulting in low dispersions during peak
daytime heating. A dense fog advisory is also in effect for
Thursday Morning, as we expect widespread dense fog to affect the
area through about 9-10AM Thursday. Expecting fog once again at
the site on Friday Morning, though early indications are for less
widespread of coverage. Dispersion will also be better on Friday
as low level flow continues to pick up out of the south to
southeast.
