...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT SUNDAY 12 PM THROUGH 9 PM FOR FIRE
WEATHER ZONES 475 AND 476 DUE TO GUSTY WIND AND LOW HUMIDITY...

Critical fire weather conditions are anticipated through the first
part of next week due to the combination of critical minimum RH
values and gusty wind. Widespread gusts will reach 25 mph with
ridgelines experiencing gusts closer to 30 mph. Winds will increase
slightly Sunday and Monday. A gradual cool-down will begin today
and continue through late this upcoming week while dry conditions
linger for another week. Models indicate the return of monsoon
moisture by the latter half of next week.

* East Idaho Dispatch Area weather impact summary (Zones 410...411
and 413)...

Elevated fire weather conditions are anticipated through the first
part of next week due to the combination of critical minimum RH
values and gusty wind. Winds will increase slightly Sunday and
Monday, which is when we expect more pockets of Red Flag conditions
to materialize. By Monday, a Red Flag Warning may be warranted for
FWZ 410 due to more widespread 30 mph wind gusts. A gradual
cool-down will begin today and continue through late this upcoming
week while dry conditions linger for another week. Models indicate
the return of monsoon moisture by the latter half of next week.
