readings running 3-5 degrees above normal. Humidities will
continue to drop across the western districts today and likely
into south-central Arizona on Saturday with lower desert MinRHs
between 15-20%. Humidities over the Arizona higher terrain should
stay above 25%. Afternoon breeziness will be common today with
gusts reaching to or just over 20 mph in many locations before
