.DISCUSSION...
HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE ALOFT WILL WEAKEN TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...THEN
REBUILD THURSDAY. SOME CIRRUS CLOUDS ARE LIKELY THROUGH THURSDAY.
GENERAL WINDS WILL BE MOSTLY FROM THE WEST AND LESS THAN 15 MPH.
THIS SHOULD ALLOW SLOPE WINDS TO DOMINATE. AIR MASS SHOULD REMAIN
STABLE THROUGH THURSDAY.

BY FRIDAY AND SATURDAY TEMPERATURES WARM ENOUGH TO DOUBLE MIXING
HEIGHTS. THE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE AXIS WILL ALSO HAVE SHIFTED
EAST OF THE AREA DUE TO A DEEPENING TROUGH OFFSHORE. THIS WILL
RESULT IN GENERAL WINDS BACKING TO A MORE SOUTHERLY DIRECTION.
THESE CHANGES SHOULD RESULT IN A MORE UNSTABLE AIR MASS. EXPECT
INCREASED FIRE BEHAVIOR ON THESE DAYS.
