.DISCUSSION...

Today will start off with partly to mostly cloudy skies, with weak
southwesterly winds. Could see some weak showers pass overhead
between 8 to 10 AM, but little to no accumulation is expected with
no threat for lightning. Throughout the rest of the day, cloud
coverage will increase, with a surface high pressure sliding
directly overhead, and will bring numerous changes to the wind
direction.

After starting with light southwesterly winds, westerly
winds are expected by the mid-morning, northerly around noon,
easterly by the mid afternoon hours possibly becoming southeasterly
as the surface high exits the region during the late afternoon
hours. May see gusts develop into the teens by the late afternoon
hours, with chances for light rain building into the area throughout
the afternoon hours. Overnight into Thursday, 1 to 1.25 inches of
rain is expected.
