.DISCUSSION...
Gusty northerly winds are expected to start the day, with widespread
wind gusts of 30-45mph. The strongest winds are expected to be along
and north of Interstate 80. Winds steadily weaken during the
afternoon with gusts dropping to 20-25mph by the mid afternoon
(3-4pm) and dropping below 15mph by the evening hours (6-7pm). Highs
today will be seasonably cool, keeping relative humidity values above
45 percent when winds are the gustiest. This keeps fire weather
concerns lower despite the strong winds to start the day.
Freezing temperatures are expected to start the day on Saturday
which may accelerate fuels drying out. Despite the cold start to the
day, temperatures climb into the low 60s by the afternoon. Winds will
be breezy throughout the daytime hours, gusting 20-35mph, strongest
for areas along and northwest of a line from Cambridge to Kearney to
Fullerton. Relative humidity values fall to around 35 percent across
the area, with values around 30 percent for areas along and west of
Highway 183. If deeper mixing occurs, a brief window of near-critical
fire weather conditions may develop. Sunday will be similar to
Saturday where a brief window of near-critical fire weather
conditions is possible. Otherwise seasonably warm weather is expected
next week though winds do not appear to be as breezy as this
weekend, lowering fire weather concerns despite the warm
temperatures.
