.DISCUSSION...
Winds will be light and fairly variable, but mostly south to
southeast prior to a front arriving this weekend.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will come this afternoon
and evening. Some storms could become strong to severe with damaging
wind gusts. As the incoming front makes its way into the area
Saturday, it is expected to bring an even greater coverage of
rain
and storms on Saturday. Afternoon minimum RH values are expected
to generally be 45 to 55 percent on Friday, rising to 50 to 60
percent on Saturday. Values should be a little higher at the
coast.
