.DISCUSSION...
Dry conditions are forecast over the next 7 days. The coolest

but values into the 35-40% range are likely for some areas Sunday
and Monday. Transport winds will be out of the west-southwest on
Thursday and then swing around to northerly on Friday and Saturday
behind a cold frontal passage Thursday night. Dispersion will
generally be poor to fair over the next couple of days.
