.DISCUSSION...A weak cold front moved through yesterday bringing
colder temperatures and slightly increased winds. Drier air has
moved half way down the Snake Plain. Models dried our entire area
out previously. However, low clouds remain over our Southwest
areas and the burn area. It is unlikely these clouds will
dissipate until later Sunday when drier dew points and breezy
winds make it to the burn site. However, there is a lot of
uncertainty of the arrival of drier air.
