.DISCUSSION...
Light winds are expected through the weekend as high pressure
remains in control and the pressure gradient remains weak. A more
substantial south wind may develop next week as a low pressure
system tries to organize over the central Plains. RH values are
expected to increase slightly tomorrow with generally poor
dispersion expected due to light winds and modest mixing heights.
No rain is anticipated into the middle of next week outside of a
few sprinkles tonight.
