.DISCUSSION...

High pressure ridge in place over the area today will allow
the east coast sea breeze to develop early at around 11am-Noon
and push inland. Max temps at the site is about 78 degrees with
Min RH about 45-50 percent. Max dispersion forecast to top out
in the 40s for most part.

Warmer temperatures and slightly lower Min RH on Thursday,
and dispersion slightly lower. An offshore wind looks probable
Thursday morning, but another sea breeze likely to form by
noon to 1 pm.
