.DISCUSSION...

AT THE LOCATION OF THE BRUSH FIRE...AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY HAS PUSHED
SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE AREA...LEAVING NORTHWEST WINDS AROUND 10 MPH
GUSTING TO 20 MPH IN PLACE.  NO OTHER SIGNIFICANT WIND SHIFT LINES
ARE FORECAST TO MOVE THROUGH IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS.  BEHIND THIS
BOUNDARY...THERE IS A CHANCE THAT THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP NEAR
THE BRUSH FIRE LOCATION.  ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT OCCUR ARE EXPECTED
TO BE ACCOMPANIED WITH MODERATE RAINFALL...WHICH WOULD HELP TO
CONTROL THE AERIAL EXTENT OF THE BRUSH FIRE.  FOR THE NEXT HOUR...
NO THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY LOOKS TO DIRECTLY IMPACT THE BURN SITE.
RH VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE RAPIDLY BEHIND THIS OUTFLOW
BOUNDARY AS TEMPERATURES STEADILY FALL INTO THE UPPER 70S TO LOWER
80S.  WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO VEER FROM NORTHWEST TO NORTH BY 5 AM CDT.
