...INCREASED FIRE DANGER THREAT TODAY...

FOR THE SECOND DAY IN A ROW, THE AIRMASS OVER OUR AREA WILL BE
EXTREMELY DRY. RELATIVE HUMIDITIES THIS AFTERNOON WILL BE IN
THE TEENS TO LOW 20S. THE LACK OF PRECIPITATION HAS ALLOWED
FUEL MOISTURE TO DROP TO DANGEROUSLY LOW LEVELS. FORTUNATELY,
WIND SPEEDS WILL BE LOWER TODAY THAN THEY WERE YESTERDAY. FOR
THIS REASON, WE WILL NOT BE ISSUING A RED FLAG WARNING TODAY.
HOWEVER, THERE WILL STILL BE A HEIGHTENED CONCERN FOR WILDFIRES.

NORTHERLY WINDS WILL AVERAGE 10 TO 15 MPH THIS MORNING AND THERE
COULD BE A FEW GUSTS TO NEAR 20 MPH. WIND SPEEDS THIS AFTERNOON
WILL AVERAGE AROUND 10 MPH.

MOISTURE LEVELS WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE ON WEDNESDAY AS WINDS
BECOME ONSHORE. WE COULD SEE SOME LIGHT RAIN AS EARLY AS LATE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT OR THURSDAY. A MORE WIDESPREAD HEAVIER RAIN IS
POSSIBLE LATE THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT. AN YET ANOTHER ROUND
OF RAIN MAY AFFECT OUR AREA LATE SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY.
