RAWS site has 19mph west winds with gusts up to 2mph from the west, in the past the winds in the valley which Bullhead sits in have been about 5mph less then predicted. This may not be a consistent estimate since the Grand River RAWS has only been up for about 11 months but RX burns prior to that had 1-5mph differences and due to the valley caused some wind direction shifts since Bullhead sits at about the center of the valley bottom of a few draws. ...WEATHER PARAMETERS REQUESTED...
