.DISCUSSION...High pressure will build into the region through the
end of the week and continuing this weekend. This will result in
warm and dry conditions area-wide. Occasionally gusty winds each
afternoon will lead to periods of localized, near critical fire
weather conditions where fuels are critical. Moisture looks to
trickle back into the region early to mid next week with the
potential for mountain showers and thunderstorms increasing.
...GUSTY ERRATIC WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED NEAR ANY SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS...
