.DISCUSSION...
A cold front will bring forth gusty northwest winds (20-30 mph)
and critically low RH values (< 20 percent) in a few spots north
of I-70 today. The net effect will be elevated fire danger and a
concern for rapid fire spread with any field or brush fire that
might ignite. Despite the good to very good vent rates, we do not
recommend burning today. For the remainder of this week, high
pressure will result in weak transport winds and generally poor
vent rates, improving somewhat by Friday - Saturday.
