.DISCUSSION...

It will be a chilly morning with temperatures a couple degrees
below freezing by the start of the prescribed burn at 7 AM. An
inversion will still be in place at this time, but we should see
that inversion lift around 12 PM to 1 PM. Until then, the
inversion height looks to be only a couple hundred feet off the
ground, so this could play a role on smoke dispersion initially.
Otherwise, light and variable wind speeds expected with skies
generally clearing through the day.
