.DISCUSSION...
Today, periods of showers and storms will make burning
unfavorable. Sunday, ventilation may briefly improve due to
increased southerly transport winds ahead of the next system, but
the depth of mixing will depend on any breaks in shower activity.
In addition, fuels will likely remain damp Sunday due to today
and tomorrow`s rains.
