.DISCUSSION...

Southerly winds 5-8 mph with gusts up to 10 mph at most this evening,
becoming south-southeasterly just after sunset before settling to be
more light and variable (around 5 mph or less) for the rest of the
overnight hours.

A nocturnal inversion will begin setting up around 8 PM local time,
becoming more stout and persisting until 9-10 AM local time Wednesday
morning. This inversion will act to trap smoke closer to the surface.

There is a low chance of isolated to scattered pop-up showers and
thunderstorms this afternoon/evening until around 6 PM local time.
Confidence in these localized storms impacting any one point is very
low, but the chance does exist for some brief heavy rainfall if a storm
develops in close proximity to the site.
