.Mostly sunny conditions expected today as temperatures again
warm into the 70s. Mixing starts early, and this will lead to
drying at the surface with RH values beginning in the 60 to 70
percent range at ignition time before falling into the 30 to
40 percent range this afternoon. A general westerly wind flow
will switch to a sea breeze by afternoon. This will also
help in some RH recovery with cooler temperatures. There will
be a chance of showers overnight into Sunday, but is not
expected to be wetting. The next chance of more widespread
wetting rains arrives Monday into Monday night.
