.DISCUSSION...

Several opportunities for rain exist over the next 5 days, which
will help aid in reducing fire concerns. Widespread rainfall amounts
of 0.50" to 0.75" likely, with locally higher amounts possible
through Wednesday.

Overall, with increased rain chances and elevated RH values this 
week, the threat for fire weather concerns has diminished across 
the area; however, if a long spell of dry weather occurs across 
the area, these concerns could return.
