.DISCUSSION...
High pressure will remain over the area today with minimum RH
values of 30 to 35 percent expected. Winds will be light from the
southeast. Humidity values will increase above 40 percent on
Thursday and remain above that level through early next week as
the ridge of high pressure shifts to the east. Wetting rains could
also impact the area on Thursday and Friday as a fast moving
system slides to the north of the region. Otherwise, rainfall
chances will be limited through early next week.
.QUESTIONS...
1) What is the chance, intensity, and duration of fog expected
Tonight into Thursday morning?
The chance for patchy fog is possible, less confident on density
but some areas of dense fog could be possible around daybreak
Thursday morning.
2) Is there a sea breeze expected?
Yes, likely later this morning followed by an increase in SSE
winds thru the afternoon. Another chance around the same time late
Thursday morning into the afternoon.
3) Is there a chance the the RH will drop below 28?
Very unlikely. MinRH`s should average into the low 50`s but can`t
rule out upper 40`s this afternoon. Increasing to upper 50`s to
low 60`s Thursday afternoon.
4) Can we expect a southeasterly wind component to remain through
1500
Yes winds will be from the SE to eventual SSE thru the rest of
today and again on Thursday.
