.DISCUSSION...
Onshore winds will persist through the forecast period with low-
level moisture returning across the area. RH is not expected to
fall below 50 percent through this forecast period. While the
south to southeasterly winds look to be fairly light through the
mid-week, expect wind speeds to become stronger towards the
weekend.

Fog potential remains low to none this morning given the elevated
winds at the lower levels. Fog potential could be a bit higher
tomorrow morning with slightly decreased winds. Isolated showers
late this morning and this afternoon could produce wind gusts
to 20 knots.
