High pressure will be in control through the weekend. RH values
lower to 30 to 40 percent this afternoon and Sunday afternoon. RH
recoveries of 80 to 100 percent expected each night, with
dew/frost in most areas. Winds will be light through the weekend
at 10 mph or less with the surface high nearby. A cold front will
move across the area on Monday, which will result in northwesterly
wind gusts increasing to 15-20 mph during the afternoon. Min RH
values are only expected to be around 45 to 60 percent though. The
dry stretch of weather will continue through much of the next
