.DISCUSSION...

The previous discussion remains on track for this afternoon.
Focusing in on tomorrow morning onwards, RH values peak early on
Wednesday around 75 to 80 percent. These will likely only fall to
around 45 to 50 percent by the late afternoon and early evening
before climbing climbing back near 85 percent overnight. Winds will
be out of the Southwest at 2 to 7 mph early tomorrow morning and
pick up from the Northwest at 5 to 10 mph. We could see winds gust
of 10 to 15 mph, however these will likely we during the afternoon
hours. Sky conditions will be scattered to broken tomorrow morning
as a weak surface boundary moves through the area. While we will
likely see some isolated showers further south, precipitation
chances for the site are less than 5 percent. Mixing heights
tomorrow afternoon will peak out at only 3500 ft, mostly due to the
incoming surface boundary. Transport winds will be quite high,
staying 20+ mph through the morning and early afternoon hours. These
drop closer to 15 mph later in the afternoon.
As stated previously, given the local terrain, winds could get
funneled down allowing for some higher sustained winds than
originally forecast.
