.DISCUSSION...
High pressure remains over the area for the next several days as
temperatures warm through the weekend. The center of high pressure
should be located to the northwest on Thursday and Thursday night
with a weak pressure trough to the southeast of the mountains. This
feature could result in some variability in near-surface wind
direction from west to north, but speeds will generally be around
5 mph. Less variability is expected with transport winds which
should stay northwest. The forecast could easily trend drier for
Thursday afternoon, so a minimum RH down around 25 percent is a
strong possibility. Moisture recovery will not be as good Thursday
night as it has been the last few days. Friday will be another
dry day with RH getting down to at least the lower 30 percents.
By then, winds will shift more to the west and southwest but should
remain light. No chance of rain.
