.DISCUSSION...
Winds will be shifting from northeast early this morning to a
southeasterly this afternoon in response to a low pressure system
that will be heading our way on Friday. Relative humidity values
will fall around critical thresholds this afternoon, but winds
will remain 10 knots or less so no Red Flag conditions are
expected.
