.DISCUSSION...
Fire weather concerns are minimal. Despite cold temperatures today,
we warm by midweek until another front knocks temperatures down well
below normal Thursday. The forecast remains dry until late week when
a low chance (10-40%) of rain enters the picture. ERCs remain below
the 50th percentile, min RHs remain above critical thresholds, and
RH recovery overnight will be good to excellent through the period.

Service Office.
