.DISCUSSION...

...Poor humidity recoveries across mid and higher slopes through
the weekend...

A strong ridge will retain its grip through the weekend and
beyond. This will deliver hot temperatures, low humidity values for
all locations during the afternoon, and poor overnight recoveries
in the mid slopes and ridges. These conditions will combine with
gusty afternoon and evening winds Sunday creating critical fire
weather conditions for portions of central and southern Washington.
There is a 10 to 15 percent chance of thunderstorms Wednesday
along the crest of the Cascades as moisture moves into the area,
but confidence is very low at this time.
