.DISCUSSION...Hot and dry conditions are expected again today
with high temperatures expected to be a few degrees warmer than
yesterday (Tuesday). Hot afternoon temperatures will bring an increased
risk for heat related illness and a heat advisory is in effect
through Wednesday evening. Additionally, smoke from area wildfires
to the north is expected to filter into the area bringing haze and
potentially lowering air quality, with impacts possible, especially
for sensitive groups. Temperatures trend slightly less hot on Thursday.

Breezy winds are expected each afternoon and  evening. There
is a high chance (90%) for winds to gust to 15 to 19 mph Wednesday
and Thursday. Strongest wind gusts are expected from from 4pm to
8pm each day.
