.DISCUSSION...A FEW POINTS IN THE FORECAST HAVE CHANGED TODAY: ONE,
WE ARE EXPECTING WEST WINDS TO BE SLIGHTLY STRONGER THAN FIRST
EXPECTED FOR TODAY. SECONDLY, WE ARE ALSO EXPECTING RH'S TO BE
SLIGHTLY LOWER THAN YESTERDAY AS WELL. WITH THESE TWO FACTORS IN
MIND, EXPECT CONDITIONS AT THE FIRE TO BE AT, OR SLIGHTLY DRIER,
THAN YESTERDAY, WITH ACTIVE BURNING LIKELY OVERNIGHT. WEST WINDS
TODAY WILL BE OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST THROUGH 1200, THEN BECOME MORE
WESTERLY AND INCREASE IN SPEED BETWEEN 1400 AND 1900. EXPECT SOME
GUSTS UP TO 25 MPH AT TIMES. WINDS WILL DECREASE YET REMAIN
