220 AM MST MON MAY 20 2013
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+++ 20-FOOT WIND FORECAST OF `LIGHT WINDS` INDICATES MAINLY
TERRAIN DRIVEN WINDS +++
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
.DISCUSSION...A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE MOVING THROUGH THE FOUR
CORNERS REGION WILL BRING GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS...ESPECIALLY TO THOSE
NW-SE ORIENTED VALLEYS EAST OF TUCSON THIS AFTERNOON. THE
COMBINATION OF THESE WINDS ALONG WITH AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITY
VALUES BETWEEN 6-10 PERCENT...A FEW SPOTS MIGHT BRIEFLY APPROACH
CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER THRESHOLDS FOR AN HOUR OR TWO. HOWEVER...
COVERAGE IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE WIDESPREAD ENOUGH TO WARRANT A RED
FLAG WARNING.
OTHERWISE...NORMAL DIURNAL WINDS TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...WITH
OCCASIONAL GUSTS DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS DUE TO
STRONG DAYTIME HEATING. STRONGER SOUTHWEST WINDS ARE FORECAST TO
OCCUR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY AS A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM DEEPENS NORTHWEST
OF THE AREA.
