.DISCUSSION...

Low overcast skies are ongoing near the burn site this morning.
The low clouds are going to hang around through the morning before
lifting and scattering out through the afternoon. That being
said, RH percentages will fall into the low 60`s this afternoon,
while winds at the burn site remain from the SW near 10 mph. A
tighter pressure gradient in place will support gusts between
15-20 mph through the afternoon, deceasing to 10-15 mph by the end
of the period. Mixing heights through the burn period will again
climb to near 3500ft. Similar to this morning, low cloud and fog
potential will exist across the burn site overnight.
