.DISCUSSION...
A WEAK DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE ACROSS MONTANA TOMORROW WITH THE
BULK OF SCATTERED AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS OCCURRING
MAINLY NORTH OF THE BURN SITE. ANY ACTIVITY THAT DOES HAPPEN TO
DEVELOP AROUND THE BURN SITE WILL BE LATE IN THE DAY. GENERALLY
LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS WILL BE FOUND OVER THE AREA EARLY
MONDAY...BUT WE EXPECT BRISK SOUTHWEST WINDS TO DOMINATE IN THE
AFTERNOON. RH LEVELS WILL DROP INTO THE MID 20S TO AROUND 30 FOR
MONDAY AFTERNOON. WE EXPECT ANOTHER SOMEWHAT STRONGER WAVE ACROSS
THE REGION TUESDAY AND THIS WILL INCREASE THE CHANCE OF RAIN FOR
TUESDAY OVER THE BIG HORNS. BT
