...FIRE WEATHER WATCH IS CANCELLED FOR GUSTY WINDS, LOW RELATIVE
HUMIDITY AND DRY FUELS FOR COLORADO FIRE WEATHER ZONES 200, 202,
AND UTAH FIRE WEATHER ZONES 486, AND 487...
.DISCUSSION...A system brushing the north today will bring a
slight uptick in wind gusts this afternoon. Winds will largely
remain less than 25 mph but there will be some localized periods
of 30 mph across portions of NE Utah and NW Colorado. Given the
decreased confidence on more widespread duration and coverage of
winds, opted to cancel the Fire Weather Watch. Otherwise, mostly
dry and warmer weather prevails through the end of the week and
this weekend as high pressure remains overhead.
...GUSTY ERRATIC WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED NEAR ANY SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS...
...THE SMOKE DATA IS CALCULATED FROM AN AVERAGE AT 6000 FEET MSL...
