.DISCUSSION...

As high pressure dominates the region into next week we will see
temperatures continue to rise and rain will be very difficult to
come by. This will also lead winds being highly diurnal in nature
with generally calm to light and variable winds overnight and
winds of 5-10 mph out of the southwest to southeast during the
day. RH values will begin to lower toward the mid 30% range today
through the weekend.
