.DISCUSSION...SOUTHEAST LOW LEVEL WINDS HAVE WEAKENED SINCE THIS TIME
WEDNESDAY EVENING, AND EXPECT WINDS TO DROP OFF QUICKER AND MORE FULLY
THAN TONIGHT ONTO FRIDAY MORNING WHAT OCCURRED THIS MORNING. THIS WILL
RESULT IN A HIGHER MAXIMUM RH NEAR 100% AND A BETTER CHANCE FOR A MIX
AND SETTLING OF SMOKE AND FOG, WHILE LIGHTER WINDS MAY RESULT IN LESS
TRANSPORT AND DRIFT OF ANY SMOKE/FOG MIXTURE, ROADS OR RESIDENCES NEAR
AND TO THE IMMEDIATE NORTHWEST OR NORTH OF THE BURN AREA WILL HAVE A
BETTER CHANCE FOR SEEING SMOKE AND FOG TONIGHT.
