.DISCUSSION...Cooler, drier, and more stable conditions will
settle in at the burn site today behind a cold front, with west to
northwest winds weakening through the day. Winds will increase out
of the southeast tonight, continuing into tomorrow as the next
storm system deepens over the West Coast. This will help bring
warmer temperatures and improved mixing to the area for tomorrow.
Additionally, moisture will increase once again tomorrow. Showers
will begin to spread into the area tomorrow afternoon, especially
by late afternoon. Moisture is not as abundant as the previous
storm, and precipitation amounts of up to 0.15 inches will be
possible from noon Monday through noon Tuesday, along with a
dusting of snow. Unsettled weather will then continue through at
least Wednesday as the storm system crosses the area.
