...Erratic Wildfire Behavior This Afternoon...

Winds will pick up out of the south to southwest by midday. This
will result in even warmer temperatures with only a modest climb
in dew points. The end result will be relative humidity flirting
with 25 percent in many places while winds gust to near 30 mph.
This combination will lead to erratic wildfire behavior into the
first part of the evening.
