Notes:

     1.  Mixing height, as used here, is the lowest height at which the
         potential temperature exceeds the potential temperature at the
         surface.  As a practical matter it is the approximate height to
         which a smoke plume will rise assuming good ignition, dry fuels,
         and winds less than about 15 mph.

     2.  Transport winds are a layer average through the mixing height,
         weighted slightly toward the winds at the top of the layer.

     3.  Ventilation Index is the height of the mixing layer (ft) times
         the transport wind speed (mph) divided by 1000.

     4.  Surface wind direction is the general expected wind direction.
         At a specific point surface winds are highly dependent on local
         terrain conditions.

This forecast is provided under an agreement between the Oregon Department
of Agriculture (ODA) and the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF).  For
