.DISCUSSION...

Overnight tonight could see an isolated thunderstorm near the
fire. Tomorrow conditions are looking to be influenced by the
strong low pressure beginning to move onto the Northwest coast of
Alaska. This system will bring strong southwest winds tomorrow and
then continue to strengthen Wednesday night. There is a good
chance for significant wetting rain Wednesday night through
Thursday. This cooler and rainy pattern is looking to persist
through the rest of the weekend.
