.DISCUSSION...

Quiet, and mostly dry weather expected into late next week. A dry
airmass in place this weekend will start to see a gradual 
increase in dewpoints through the middle of next week. Wetting 
rain chances will likely not return til next weekend. Gusty winds
look to be elevated today in the 20-25 mph range; however, minimum
RH values will remain in the mid 30 to mid 50 percent range
through the afternoon hours. This should keep fire weather
concerns to a minimum today; however, with gusty winds, and the
dry weather conditions as of late, it's not recommended to burn 
unless a trained professional. With winds decreasing by early next
week, fire weather concerns should diminish, and remain low
through much of the week.
