...REMARKS...
Please breakdown forecast into two hour increments for the burn
period 1100-1900 hrs.

Observations were taken at the burn unit and show a decrease of wind
as compared to todays forecast, likely due to sheltering.  Also RH
values were higher and temps were lower likely due to the elevation
of the site.

Weather observations were taken with a sling psycrometer.

Thank you for your help
