.DISCUSSION...High pressure will move off to the east of the region today
as a cold front approaches the region from the north. While deep mixing is
expected once again late this morning into the afternoon, increasing mid-
level moisture may limit the amount of dry air mixdown, especially across
southern Indiana. With that being said, relative humidity values are likely
to fall into the mid-to-upper 20s again across Kentucky this afternoon,
especially for south and west aspects. Winds will continue to be fairly light,
limiting dispersion values across the area. Temperatures should be a few
degrees warmer, with most locations reaching the low-to-mid 80s by this
afternoon. Dry weather is likely to continue into the Labor Day weekend.
