.DISCUSSION...
Dispersions are forecast to be generally poor to fair on Saturday
and Sunday. This is due to mixing heights being around 1k-5k ft on
Saturday and 3k-5k ft on Sunday, however this will be largely
dependent on cloud coverage and presence of rainfall, which is
still a bit uncertain. The transport winds are forecasted
to be 2-8 mph from the east on Saturday and 5-13 mph from the south
on Sunday. Wetting rains should also be a factor this weekend.
Specifically, up to 0.4 inch possible in SW counties on Saturday and
up to 0.8 inch possible across the entire area on Sunday. Although,
rainfall amounts will likely be higher in isolated locations.
RH minimums are forecasted to be around 60-70% both days.
Fog potential over the next few days: Patchy fog remains possible
across the area on both Saturday and Sunday mornings, but will be
more prone to occur where rainfall fell the previous evening.
Potential for Red Flag Conditions: No potential for red flag
