.DISCUSSION...

There are a few showers in the area, which could produce gusty 
outflow winds and some sprinkles between now and 730 PM. 
Storms will likely develop over the peaks of the Sangre de Cristo
mountains Thursday afternoon, then drift eastward towards the 
wildfire in the afternoon. The most likely time for a storm
to move over the wildfire tomorrow afternoon is between 1 and
4PM, although gusty and erratic wind gusts will remain a threat 
through the afternoon into the evening hours. Storms are likely 
to be in the area again on Friday, but rain chances will be 
slightly lower. Prevailing winds the next couple of days will
generally be light (less than 10 mph) outside of storm outflows.
