...REMARKS...
1. What are the highest wind gusts we should expect today

2. We experienced variability in the wind directions out in the field
ranging from ESE to WSW. Is current thinking still for SE winds to
hold until mid-night

3. Any particular reason for variability of wind directions out of
forecast for the time frame 0900 thru 1200 today

3. What is the fog potential for tonight and tomorrow morning, and
what time is fog most likely to occur

4. What are the chances of wind going calm tonight, and for what
timeframe

5. If wind does go calm, what will determine the movement of smoke
overnight: laminar flow, down drainage flow, pressure gradients, or
some other factor

6. Forecast soundings for this afternoon have southwesterly flow
aloft...will this have any effect on our transport wind direction.

7.    What can we expect the RH to fall to this afternoon considering
the actual recorded RH for the day has been well below the forecast.

Please provide info in one hour increments from most recent until
1800 hours and then 2 hour increments thru 0600 hours and then 4 hour
increments thereafter.
