.DISCUSSION...
A quiet day of weather is expected through the day as high
pressure settles across the area. Morning inversion is forecast to
break between 9a and 10a, setting back in around 6p near sunset.
Some brief gusts over 10mph possible from 10-11am as this inversion
fully mixes out, otherwise light and variable winds expected
throughout the day. The airmass is very dry but tried to adjust RH
values to account a bit better for proximity to the swamp. Still,
min RH values are likely to be in the 22%-26% range this afternoon.
