Weather Concerns

Weather and Fire Behavior: The region will see a slight cooling trend with temperatures in the mid to high 80’s. RH’s will be in the mid 20’s to high 30’s, and winds will be light and variable out of the south. Fuel moistures continue to recover but will support creeping surface fire. No significant spread is expected.
