.DISCUSSION...

Fog development will be the primary forecast issue for burn
management planning over the next several days. Areas of fog will
develop each night through Thursday night. The fog will be light
to moderate tonight, but could turn more dense as we move through
the week. Outside of the fog concerns, minimum RH values will
be around 60 to 70 percent each day through at least Thursday.
This increase in overall humidity will also support some
shower and thunderstorm activity starting as early as Wednesday,
but more likely from Friday into the upcoming weekend.


1) Overall, light to moderate fog is forecast Tuesday night
into Wednesday morning with some potential (around 30%)
for it to become dense at times, especially in the early
morning hours on Wednesday morning.  The window for fog chances
will be approximately 12 AM Wednesday through 8 AM Wednesday,
however fog could develop late Tuesday night before midnight.
Any fog that forms will begin to lift after sunrise and
full visibility should return by mid morning.
