Expected Fire Weather Conditions:
Sunday and Labor Day: Slightly elevated fire weather conditions across portions of southern WY where gusty southwest winds will combine with afternoon relative humidity in the 20 to 25 percent range. Otherwise the sharp trend of decreasing fire weather conditions will continue as cooler and inclement weather continues Sunday. On Monday most of the precipitation will be confined across northwest and northern Wyoming. Minor mountain snow accumulations could occur Sunday night and Monday. Please see the special weather statement for more details.
