.DISCUSSION...
Fire weather will remain a low threat through the next few days given
ample precipitation and high RH throughout all zones. By the weekend,
a drying trend will move in with slightly lower RH expected. Another
round of unsettled weather on Monday into Tuesday will result in an
increase in surface wind speeds, however RH will also increase with
precipitation possible so no fire weather threats are expected.
