.DISCUSSION...
Hot and dry conditions will continue well into early next week.
Winds will be trending downward as a strong cell of high pressure
builds over the region. Localized critical fire weather conditions
will still be possible each afternoon as circulations from daily
heating mixes down some stronger winds. Humidity is likely to be
in the single digits to lower teens below 9000 feet until moisture
arrives. This is not likely to occur until next week and then
only limited to the Colorado mountains.
...GUSTY ERRATIC WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED NEAR ANY SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS...
