.DISCUSSION...

Dry weather continues through the beginning of next week, the the
area under the influence of surface high pressure. Deep mixing of
very dry air aloft during the afternoons will result in minimum 
relative humidity values in the 20% to 30%, with a few isolated 
locations possibly in the teens. Northerly winds remain less than 
10 knots through Wednesday, turning more northwesterly Thursday, 
and northeast to easterly by the end of the week. Temperatures 
will remain near seasonal normals, with highs in the 60s and 70s, 
and lows in the 30s and 40s.

No measurable rainfall is anticipated through the seven day 
forecast, and is not looking likely through the end of the month.
There are currently no fire weather concerns at this time.
