.DISCUSSION...
Monsoon moisture remains over the region so the risk of afternoon
and evening thunderstorms continues today. If a storm happens to 
impact the fire site - strong outflows, lighting, hail, and heavy 
rain are the main threats. Drier air moves in for Wednesday with a
much reduced risk of storms. These drier conditions will persist 
into the weekend along with typical westerly breezes in the 
afternoon.
