.DISCUSSION...CORRECTION
HIGH PRESSURE OVER NEVADA WILL CREATE DRY NORTHEAST TO EAST FLOW
ACROSS THE BURN AREA TODAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BREAKDOWN TONIGHT AS
A COLD FRONT MOVES INTO NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. EXPECT THE WINDS TO
SHIFT TO THE SOUTH TONIGHT AND INCREASE FROM THE SOUTHWEST FRIDAY AS
THIS COLD FRONT MOVES SOUTHWARD. THE AIR MASS WILL LIKELY REMAIN DRY
OVER THE BURN AREA THROUGH MOST OF FRIDAY. HOWEVER A RAPIDLY
DEEPENING MARINE LAYER WILL REACH THE BURN ELEVATIONS LATE FRIDAY
NIGHT AND SATURDAY MAKING FOG AND DRIZZLE POSSIBLE BY SATURDAY
MORNING. COOL...BREEZY...AND MOIST CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE INTO
SUNDAY. HIGH PRESSURE REBUILDING TO THE NORTH MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY
SHOULD BRING WARMER TEMPERATURES AND LOWER HUMIDITY...ALONG WITH
LIGHT EAST WINDS.
