.DISCUSSION...
Little to no fire weather concerns today. A weak passing cold front
ahead of modest daytime heating will allow the development of
showers and thunderstorms this afternoon and evening. Strong mixing
will create W to NW gusts upwards of 15-20 kts mainly in the western
UP and RHs to fall as low as 40%. Behind passing showers/storms this
evening, winds will fall to a calm overnight with good RH recovery
expected. Looking ahead, no fire wx concerns Thursday with calm
winds and very similar RHs. Warmer and more humid days are expected
into the holiday weekend with daily thunderstorm chances.
