WEDNESDAY AS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS OFFSHORE. OVERNIGHT
RELATIVE HUMIDITY RECOVERIES WILL REMAIN GOOD DUE A CONTINUED

CANYONS TO THE NORTH OF THE BURN AREA...AND THERE IS A CHANCE THAT
SOME OF THESE WINDS COULD SURFACE ACROSS THE BURN AREA IN THE
EARLY MORNING HOURS. THE AIR MASS WILL MOISTEN FOR THE LATTER HALF
OF THE WEEK AS A TROUGH PASSES BY TO THE NORTH AND ONSHORE FLOW
STRENGTHENS.
