.DISCUSSION...A surface thermal trough will move over the region
becoming strongest on Saturday. The trough will bring very warm
and dry conditions across the area causing very poor daytime RH
values with only moderate overnight recoveries. Winds will be
diurnally driving and mostly light below 10 mph so there are no
fire weather concerns for the next few days.
***Winds are 20 foot 10 minute averages***
***CWR-chance of wetting rain 0.10 or greater***
