.DISCUSSION...
While an isolated light shower could affect mountains of far
eastern districts Friday, dry weather will prevail otherwise with
temperatures a few degrees below normal. Minimum humidity values
will range between 30-50% across eastern districts, while readings
in the western districts fall closer to 20-30%. This follows fair
to good overnight recovery near 30-50% in western areas to
excellent levels above 80% in eastern areas. Some gusty winds
will develop Friday afternoon across the lower Colorado River
Valley with light winds and limited gustiness elsewhere.

Note...Additional Fire Weather Forecast information can be found
