Westerly general winds will rise a bit again east of the Cascades during the day but not to strong levels. A wetter frontal system will arrive Friday. Check local forecasts for details in your area.
Northwest Fire Potential Summary
The potential for large fire initiation over the region is minimal on Thursday. The only slight risk area for fire activity appears to be in the Columbia Basin due to winds in rangeland fuels.
