.Discussion...
Strong north to northeast breezes will prevail before slackening
and veering northeast later today. Dry and cooler conditions will
continue through the short term with near nil PoPs and min RH
values in the mid 40s. There is a significant fire potential
rating of Moderate today due to our drier conditions, but
slackening winds and lower dispersion values make it less
impressive than earlier conditions.
