.DISCUSSION...
No wetting rain through Sunday night. Wetting rains are possible
Sunday night through the middle of the week, but confidence is
low depending on how close low pressure to south of the region can
make it. Afternoon RHs through the weekend will be 30-45 percent,
with good recovery during the nights. Quite breezy tonight, but
less breezy after today.
