As such, precipitation chances will remain quite minimal, winds fairly light, and conditions dry. Despite that, strong mixing and modest transport winds will support excellent ventilation and associated clearing index values. A weak embedded system will pass through Sunday as the high shifts east, which will result in an increase in wind magnitudes as well as isolated to scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Given the precip chances and slight uptick in moisture, humidity values will trend upward slightly. Ventilation/clearing index values remain excellent. .REST OF TODAY...
