.DISCUSSION...Critical fire weather conditions are not forecast
to develop as pulses of moisture over the next week keep humidity
elevated. A moisture push today will bring showers and thunderstorm
chances to the southern Colorado mountains through tomorrow. A
stronger push of tropical moisture arrives Sunday and brings an
uptick in thunderstorm activity to much of the area. This active
pattern continues through next week.
...GUSTY ERRATIC WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED NEAR ANY SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS...
