Following the end of shower and thunderstorm early this
morning, an extended dry, hot, and muggy period of weather
is expected through early next week. Daily minimum RH values
will fall to 45-55% with mixing heights reaching 4000-5000 ft.
However, transport winds will be rather weak, bringing poor
to fair conditions for smoke dispersion.
