.DISCUSSION...

Monday should be a mostly sunny day with no chance for
precipitation until the overnight hours. We will see a day with
ample mixing, increasing to around 5000 feet by mid day with
excellent smoke dispersal. This will allow breezy southeast winds
5 to 10 mph with gusts 15-20 mph in the afternoon. This good low
level mixing will also make for good drying in the afternoon, with
relative humidity dropping into the low 30 percent range. Rain
should begin to arrive overnight, continuing through Tuesday. A
half inch to three quarters of an inch of rain is expected by
Wednesday morning.
