WEATHER CONDITION AT INCIDENT OR NEARBY STATIONS

...REMARKS...
Good Afternoon, if
possible could you
please use both the
Benchmark RAWS and the
L-C portable 1 RAWS for
observations?  Planning
on burning piles in the
Elk Creek drainage and
feel like Benchmark Raws
might be somewhat not as
representative but using
along with L-C portable
might help with the
weather in the burn
area.  Piles are in the
Elk Creek drainage and
are partially sheltered
in a somewhat open South
facing hillside which is
in the sun all day and
most of the snow is
melted off.  The more
moisture in the forecast
the better for us as
these are piles.   any
questions feel free to
call. Noelle, 406-544-
9735. thank you very
much in advance.
