If conditions become unrepresentative...contact the National Weather
Service.

.DISCUSSION...Slightly cooler than normal temperatures and slightly
higher than normal humidities with typical afternoon and early evening
breezes expected through the rest of the week. Winds will likely shift
frequently due to eddies originating from the escarpment and high
terrain along the western edge of the fire. An isolated thunderstorm is
possible through late Monday evening, with the primary concern
being strong outflow winds, especially from any storms that
develop to the south and west of the fire. Additional convective
chances arrive Wednesday and especially Thursday afternoons.
