FORECAST IS BASED ON INCIDENT TIME OF 0716 CDT ON APRIL 25.
IF CONDITIONS BECOME UNREPRESENTATIVE...CONTACT THE NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE.

.DISCUSSION...
MODEST EASTERLY WINDS ARE A BIT SURPRISING THIS MORNING...BUT ALL
INDICATIONS ARE THAT THESE WINDS WILL DIMINISH SLIGHTLY BY LATE IN
THE AFTERNOON AND BECOME MORE SOUTHERLY. THESE WIND CONDITIONS WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND WHILE THE FORECAST CONTINUES THIS
INTO TONIGHT...THERE IS A CHANCE THAT WINDS COULD INCREASE A BIT
OVERNIGHT...BEFORE DIMINISHING TOWARD SUNRISE SO BE AWARE OF THAT
POSSIBILITY. OTHERWISE HOT TEMPERATURES WILL ALLOW FOR LOW AFTERNOON
MIN HUMIDITIES THOUGH RECOVERY IS EXPECTED TO BE EXCELLENT TONIGHT.
EXPECT SIMILAR CONDITIONS TOMORROW.
