.DISCUSSION...
High pressure over the region keeps conditions relatively
consistent with a high near 80 and minimum RH value near 40. Winds
are expected to be mostly light and unorganized under the high
pressure, but the occasional southerly gust up to 15 mph is
possible in the late afternoon once mixing has reached it`s
maximum extent. Slightly cooler conditions with higher RHs are
expected Friday as a weak front brings isolated showers to the
area. Isolated showers continue Saturday and Sunday with some
potential for isolated thunderstorms also developing over the
weekend.
