.DISCUSSION...
A MORE MOIST AIR MASS IS MOVING WESTWARD UP THE ARKANSAS RIVER
VALLEY. THE WESTERN EDGE OF THIS MORE MOIST AIR MASS SHOULD REACH THE
FIRE OVERNIGHT...AND HUMIDITIES SHOULD INCREASE OVERNIGHT TO
AROUND 60 PERCENT BY MORNING.

THE MORE MOIST AIR MASS WILL QUICKLY MOVE EAST ON THURSDAY...WITH
WARM...DRY AND BREEZY WEATHER RETURNING TO THE REGION.
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WHICH DEVELOP ON THURSDAY CAN PRODUCE
GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS...BUT WITH LITTLE OR NO RAINFALL.

THERE IS A CHANCE THE MORE MOIST AIR MASS WILL NOT REACH THE FIRE
OVERNIGHT. IF THE MORE MOIST AIR MASS DOES NOT REACH THE
FIRE...HUMIDITIES WILL ONLY RECOVER TO AROUND 30 PERCENT
OVERNIGHT.
