...GUSTY WINDS AND VERY DRY AIR BEHIND A DRYLINE AND PACIFIC
FRONT WILL RESULT IN CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS FRIDAY
AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING...

.A dryline and Pacific cold front are expected to move across
South Central Texas today. Strong west to northwest winds and 
very dry air behind the front will bring critical fire weather 
conditions across much of South Central Texas. These conditions 
will quickly spread eastward, becoming widespread along and west 
of the I-35 corridor. Sustained winds of 15 to 30 mph with gusts 
to 45 mph will coincide with minimum RH values of 5 to 15 percent 
along and west of the I-35 corridor late this morning through 
early this evening. Winds are forecast to diminish after sunset. 
Strong winds and very dry air are forecast across all of South 
Central Texas on Saturday and will result in another critical fire
weather day.
