.DISCUSSION...
A WEAK UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL TRACK OVER THE FIRE FROM THE
SOUTHWEST OVERNIGHT. THIS COULD TRIGGER A THUNDERSTORM...HOWEVER
THE ODDS ARE SMALL THAT IT WILL HIT THE FIRE. DRIER WESTERLY
FLOW WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION BEHIND THIS DISTURBANCE ELIMINATING
THE CHANCES FOR THUNDER...HOWEVER IT WILL BE BREEZY AT TIMES
ESPECIALLY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. ANOTHER WEAK
DISTURBANCE IS POSSIBLE ON FRIDAY...HOWEVER IT WILL MAINLY RESULT
IN MORE BREEZY WINDS. DRY WEATHER WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE
WEEKEND.
