.DISCUSSION...
Temperatures will continue to warm over the weekend, lending
toward low relative humidity values in the afternoon and not
quite as high of rh`s for the overnight recoveries going
forward through Monday night. Expect light winds over the
weekend. Conditions will be dry with no dry thunderstorm risk.
***Winds are 20 foot 10 minute averages ***
***CWR: Chance of wetting rain 0.10 or greater ***
***Ventilation Index is derived from transport wind
multiplied by the mixing height in 100`s of ft.
Categories are a generalized indicator and users
are encourage to develop criteria that are
suitable and representative of dispersion
conditions in their local area of interest.
Categories: low (< 200), moderate (200-500),
high (500-700), and very high (> 700).
-Note: Max transport winds may not occur
at the same time as max mixing height. ***
