.DISCUSSION...LOW PRESSURE TO THE NORTHEAST WILL MEAN NORTHWESTERLY
FLOW IN THE UPPER ATMOSPHERE WITH A LIGHT PRECIPITATION THREAT TODAY
AND TONIGHT.  MOST OF THE PRECIPITATION SHOULD BE TO THE NORTH OF
GALENA SUMMIT...BUT A STRAY SHOWER COULD MOVE SOUTHWARD DOWN THE
WOOD RIVER VALLEY. TUESDAY WILL BE MUCH DRIER AND SOMEWHAT COLDER.
LOWER ELEVATIONS IN THE BURN AREA APPEAR TO BE SHELTERED.  THE
TERRAIN MAY MAKE THE WIND DIRECTION MORE ERRATIC AS EDDYS DEVELOP ON
THE LEE SIDE OF THE MOUNTAINS TO THE NORTH. WINDY CONDITIONS ALOFT
WILL BE MUCH CALMER TUESDAY.
