Saturday. Limited humidity recovery to 30-50% Friday night.

could also rekindle fires in areas which received lightning in
recent days.

* Additional Details…Dry conditions and shorter periods of gusty
winds will also produce elevated to locally critical fire
weather conditions each afternoon today and Thursday.
