.DISCUSSION...

Biggest concern from a fire weather standpoint will be afternoon
relative humidity values today and Friday as much drier is moving
into the area. Minimum Relative humidity values today and Friday
could drop to 20 to 25%, and possibly a bit lower before a little
bit of moisture recovery over the weekend.

.REMARKS...
1) There could be a short duration land brz by early evening causing
wind direction to change from due north to NE and due east at times.
Winds will then become lighter overnight and could go calm around or
after midnight. General winds will rise from a SE direction Friday
morning.
2)Today low  tide  7:38am +0.01
  high tide  9:50pm +0.49
Fri   low  tide  8:48am -0.03
  high tide 10:23pm +0.54
3)Probability of fog is <10%. A strong sfc inversion will exist
from the sfc up to 1600ft this morning and this will be mixed out by
10am today. This same sfc inversion will set up after dark today and
should be at similar levels Fri morning.
