increased moisture tonight, another pocket of drier air will move
into the region again on Friday, and could continue for at least
portions of the state into Saturday. Highest confidence in Red
Flag conditions will be for Friday from late morning through the
afternoon hours, when lowest relative humidity values coincide
with the strongest expected wind speeds.
