.DISCUSSION...SOUTHERLY FLOW HAS BROUGHT A SLIGHT INCREASE IN MOISTURE
TO THE FORECAST AREA TODAY. AS A RESULT...SURFACE HUMIDITY WILL BE
JUST SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN YESTERDAY AND WE EXPECT A FEW ISOLATED
HIGH BASED SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP. ANY STORMS THAT
DEVELOP ARE EXPECTED TO PUSH FAIRLY QUICKLY TO THE NORTHEAST...BUT
WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING ERRATIC AND GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS.
OTHERWISE...EXPECT BREEZY SOUTHWEST WINDS ACROSS THE FIRE SITE
THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH EARLY EVENING.
