Smoke Call Status: Next Smoke call will be 1 PM Friday May16th
Issued: 12:30 PM   Friday, May 16, 2008
Discussion:
With the high pressure ridge over us, mixing heights won't be that deep overall, except for some areas of NE CA. Transport winds will weaken with light/slope driven winds along with lower mixing heights expected thru the weekend, along with near record heat.
