.DISCUSSION...
High pressure and dry air over the region will keep RH lower than
usual through Saturday morning. Overnight recoveries are expected
to be slightly higher than last night in the 70-80% range.
Dew point temperatures will be rising through the day Saturday as
a weak system moves into the Northeast bringing some showers
Saturday night into early Sunday. Rain amounts will be less than
0.1", so it will not be considered a wetting rain, but will aid in
RH recovery. A very isolated thunderstorm may be possible Saturday
night into Sunday afternoon with about a 10% chance of occurrence.
