SPOT FORECAST FOR LITTLE JAKE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UT
751 AM MDT FRI AUG 27 2010

.DISCUSSION...AN INCREASE IN MOISTURE WILL BRING A BETTER CHANCE
OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO SOUTHERN UTAH TODAY INCLUDING THE
FIRE SITE. THIS WILL ALSO INCLUDE A 30 PERCENT CHANCE OF WETTING
RAINS ON THE FIRE. WINDS OUTSIDE OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL ALSO PICK
UP TODAY OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST. THE WINDS WILL BECOME EVEN
STRONGER SATURDAY BUT THE AIRMASS WILL START TO DRY. THERE WILL
STILL BE A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY BUT THERE IS ONLY A
10 PERCENT CHANCE OF WETTING RAINS AND THE THREAT OF STRONG WINDS
FROM STORMS IS GREATER. THE DRYING TREND WILL CONTINUE INTO
SUNDAY AND SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL CONTINUE ALTHOUGH THEY WILL NOT
BE QUITE AS STRONG.
