.DISCUSSION...
Tuesday will deliver another warm and dry day under high pressure.
Winds will be light and terrain driven however the light northerly
component common on Monday could be more variable at times as
general winds start to shift to the south competing local winds.
Look for the morning inversion to weaken around 1000 pdt with
transport winds out of the south.  The arrival of a strong cold front Wednesday
will bring gusty westerly winds and brief chance for showers with little
to no rainfall.
