Potential Summary
Another hot, dry, day with breezy
conditions continue across the region especially in the Columbia River Basin
and NE Washington. Fuels will continue to cure and help promote fire growth on
any existing or new fires. The large fire potential conditions will not
moderate in the short term. There is a slight chance of thunderstorms east of
the Cascades.
