...ELEVATED FIRE RISK THIS AFTERNOON...
EVEN THOUGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE NOTICEABLY COOLER THAN
YESTERDAY...THIS AFTERNOON WILL STILL SEE AN ELEVATED FIRE RISK.
DRY AIR IS ADVECTING INTO THE REGION AT THE SURFACE AND WILL
COMBINE WITH COOLER TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWER TO MID 50S THIS
AFTERNOON TO PRODUCE MINIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES NEAR
CRITICAL LEVELS. THIS WILL COMBINE WITH BREEZY NORTHWEST WINDS TO
PRODUCE AN ELEVATED FIRE RISK ACROSS THE REGION TODAY. A SLIGHT
CHANCE FOR LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS TODAY COULD PRODUCE SOME LOCALLY
STRONG ERRATIC WIND GUSTS...AND ANY SHOWER MAY CAUSE RELATIVE
HUMIDITY VALUES TO BRIEFLY RECOVER.
