.DISCUSSION...
Hot and dry conditions will be developing into the weekend with
temperatures topping out around 90 degrees on Saturday. Fire
weather concerns will be increasing on Saturday with the relative
humidity dropping into the teens, but are not expected to be
critical as winds remain mostly below 15 mph. Sunday will begin a
slow cooling trend as an upper low pushes over the Pacific
northwest, leading to higher rain chances through next week.
