.DISCUSSION...Elevated fire weather conditions will continue
today through Saturday across the region. Min RHs today will be in
the 20s to lower 30s. Gusty westerly winds today, especially
across northwest SD, will lead to near critical conditions there.
On Friday, drier air returns with Min RHs in the teens to mid 20s.
Near critical conditions will likely develop over parts of
northeast WY and far southwest SD where winds may gust over 20
mph. On Saturday, gusty northwest winds will develop behind a cold
front, but RH`s will rise back into the 20s and 30s.
