Service.

.DISCUSSION...Unusually hot weather Wednesday and Thursday will give way
to more seasonal temperatures as the ridge flattens and cooler
air advects in from the north. Conditions will stay mostly dry
Wednesday and Thursday with some afternoon cumulus, but these will
pose <5% chance of precipitation. Low pressure will be passing by
to the south on Friday. This will mainly increase cloud cover and
bump up RH slightly. Chance of precipitation Friday afternoon is
~15% as most precipitation stays well to the south. Good transport
winds will keep clearing indices excellent throughout the entire
period.

Little to no precipitation is expected after Friday as a
dry airmass moves into the region, but cooler temperatures will
allow for high RH. Winds each day will primarily be out of the
south/west with gusts picking up each afternoon 20-25 mph.
