...REMARKS...
1200 we had light precip yesterday which unexpected based on
forecast. Driest RH came at 1600 with 22. Smoke pooled in the Chaffin
Creek/Spoon McCoy drainage. Need a best assessment of arrival time
for winds from Tstorms  wondering if this will affect the burn today.
65 acres burned another 120 planned for today.
