.DISCUSSION...
WEAKENING PRESSURE GRADIENTS AND A BUILDING RIDGE OF HIGH
PRESSURE ALOFT WILL BRING A WARMING AND DRYING TREND THROUGH
EARLY NEXT WEEK...ALONG WITH WEAKER WIND SPEEDS DURING THE
AFTERNOONS/EARLY EVENINGS. EXPECT BREEZY SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS TO
CONTINUE DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING AT THE HATHAWAY
FIRE...WITH LIGHTER NORTHERLY DOWNSLOPE WINDS AT NIGHT AND IN THE
EARLY MORNING. THE LOWER SLOPES OF THE BURN AREA ARE LIKELY TO
FEEL MORE OF A WESTERLY DIRECTION TO THE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING
WINDS DUE TO THE CLOSER PROXIMITY TO THE BANNING PASS IN THOSE
AREAS...WHILE THE UPPER SLOPES AND RIDGE-TOPS SHOULD FEEL MORE OF
A SOUTH TO SOUTHWESTERLY UPSLOPE DIRECTION.

CONDITIONS WILL BECOME RATHER HOT AND DRY BY WEEKS END...WITH
DAY-TIME HIGH TEMPERATURES RISING INTO THE THE LOW 100S ALONG THE
LOWER SLOPES OF THE BURN AREA...AND MINIMUM HUMIDITIES FALLING
DOWN TO NEAR 10 PERCENT.
