.DISCUSSION...
Look for times of clouds and sun with more clouds today with more
sun heading into the weekend and beyond. Deeper mixing will tap
into stronger winds aloft allowing some surface gusts to reach 30
to 35 mph. This trend of gusty winds continues through the
extended period. Continued low humidities and warm temperatures
will be the rule for the next several days. Winds are forecast to
be from the southwest... maybe with some westerly
component...during much of the extended period. However, minor
disturbances moving through may cause some directional shifts from
time to time. Dry conditions remain in place through the weekend
and beyond.
