.DISCUSSION...
High pressure will hold strong in keeping seasonally mild and
dry conditions through the remainder of the work week. Minimum RH
will bottom out thru the 30s percentile each day but recent rainfall,
generally light winds, and still sheltered fuels will offer ample
counterweights to its potential impacts on fire behavior. Wetting
rain chances pick up next weekend.
