Fire Weather Planning Forecast for the Florida Keys

.Discussion...
Expansive high pressure in the North Atlantic will continue to
dictate the sensible weather over the next several days.
Southeasterly transport winds near 10 mph will continue into the
first half of the weekend. This flow will bring periodic waves of
Saharan dust into the Florida Keys, resulting in slightly below
normal rain and thunder chances. Despite the lack of appreciable
rainfall, afternoon relative humidity values will remain at or
above 60 percent through the first half of the weekend.
