.DISCUSSION...
Humidity will continue to increase today as a cold front
approaches from the northwest. Afternoon mixing heights will climb
just above 4kft on Saturday and below 4000 feet on Sunday.
However, weaker 20 foot and transport winds should limit smoke
dispersions. Low to medium chances for rain and thunderstorms will
increase today and over the weekend, with wetting rains becoming
more likely on Sunday.
Fog potential over the next few days: None is expected at this
time.
Potential for Red Flag Conditions: None due to high afternoon RH
values forecast.
