HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL MOVE EAST THROUGH THE DAY AS A DEEP
TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE MOVES TOWARD THE BURN SITE. THE TROUGH
WILL BRING INCREASING CLOUDS BY EARLY AFTERNOON. TEMPERATURES ARE
EXPECTED TO WARM INTO THE MID 70S THIS AFTERNOON WHICH WILL ALLOW
RH'S TO LOWER INTO THE LOWER 20 PERCENT RANGE. WINDS WILL REMAIN
SOUTHEAST AT 5 TO 15 MPH THROUGH THE DAY. THE UPPER THROUGH WILL
BEGIN TO AFFECT THE BURN SITE BY EARLY THIS EVENING AND WILL
BRING A CHANCE OF SCATTERED SHOWERS AND POSSIBLE THUNDERSTORMS.
WINDS WILL BECOME SOUTH THIS EVENING THEN SWITCH TO THE WEST BY
THURSDAY MORNING. LOOK FOR VARIABLE WIND DIRECTIONS AND GUSTY
WINDS IN AND NEAR ANY SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORMS. SCATTERED SHOWERS
AND A POSSIBLE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM WILL CONTINUE ON THURSDAY
