.DISCUSSION...

A very dry airmass has settled into the region. RH values this
morning have recovered very little with max RH only into the 30
percent to low 40 percent range. Will see another quick drop in
RH today as daytime temperatures rise into the 50s and low 60s 
and dew points fall into the teens. This will result in min RH 
values in the low 20 percent range across the mountains and
upper teens east of the mountains. 

Although winds will be lighter today than yesterday, still 
could have gusts around 20 to 25mph for a couple hours during 
peak mixing in the afternoon. These winds, combined with very 
low RH, will result in an increased risk of adverse fire
behavior. Outdoor burning is discouraged...any fire could 
quickly spread.
