.DISCUSSION...

Winds continue to veer westerly this morning behind the exiting
cold front. This will lead to excellent/very good vent rates
today, but as the winds and mixing heights decrease conditions
will be less conducive to burning Thursday. Another wave of
showers and thunderstorms are likely tomorrow as well.
