.DISCUSSION...
Fire weather conditions are low for the next seven days.
Scattered rainfall is expected through the end of the week adding
to soil and fuel moisture already present. The greatest fire
threat will be from lightning starts, but due low critical fire
conditions any fires that form should have low activity and be
easily contained.
