.DISCUSSION...

Abundant sunshine and deep mixing heights should yield fair vent
rates today. Tomorrow will also feature fair vent rates with
transport winds increasing but mixing heights decreasing ahead of
a cold front. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will likely
accompany this frontal passage Friday night through Saturday
afternoon, with cooler, drier and less humid conditions returning
Sunday through Monday.
