.DISCUSSION:
Dry and unseasonably warm weather continues through the weekend
with high pressure over the region. Patchy morning fog gives way
to sunny skies, though some cirrus may spill into the area later
today. Temperatures climb into the 70s this afternoon, with
relative humidity falling into the 40s and 50s. Winds remain light
out of the north/northeast. Another sunny day is expected Sunday,
and while most of the interior UP should see highs in the 70s,
areas closer to Lake Superior may only top out in the 60s.
Relative humidity may dip into the 30s in the interior-western UP
and the spine of the Keweenaw, and NE winds may become elevated
with gusts up to 15-20mph possible mainly across the Keweenaw.
