.DISCUSSION...Breezy to windy conditions are expected to develop
at the burn site Monday. The trend in the model guidance is for
stronger winds (as noted in yesterday`s follow-up phone call),
with gusts into the 30 to 35 mph range off and on through the day.
A brief peak gust or two for the day could get closer to 40 mph.
We think the most persistent gusty winds would be from late
morning through the afternoon when the strongest mixing occurs.
Temperatures will be warm, and humidity will be low, dropping
close to 15% for a minimum.
Smoke dispersal will be very good to excellent during the
afternoon, and becoming good by 1000.
Lighter winds can be expected for Tuesday.
