.DISCUSSION...
Fire weather concerns will remain low through this weekend, with
temperatures slightly below normal, minimum RH values around 40%,
and light 20-foot winds. As temperatures climb into the mid to
upper 80s and RH values dip below 40% next week, fire weather
concerns will increase. No rain is forecast for the next seven
days, which will contribute to this trend.
