Service.

...HEAT ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM PDT TUESDAY...

.DISCUSSION...
Hot and dry conditions will persist today, with slight
cooling and moistening expected on Tuesday. The hot conditions will
result in deep mixing heights each afternoon, highest over the
eastern sections of the burn area. Some monsoonal moisture will move
into the area later tonight into Tuesday, accounting for the rise in
minimum humidities on Tuesday.  While better chances of shower and
thunderstorm activity will be south and east of the fire location,
there is a 10 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms from late
tonight into Tuesday morning. If any thunderstorms were to develop,
the main risks would be isolated dry lightning strikes and gusty
outflow winds.
