.DISCUSSION...

While thunderstorms are forecast to stay well to the northwest of
the wildfire, they could send a gusty and erratic outflow boundary
into the area. Should this happen, the boundary will likely come
from the northwest. Otherwise, minimum relative humidity will
remain above critical levels each day, although overnight recovery
will be moderate. 20-ft winds will be out of the southeast/south
at under 20 mph.
