.DISCUSSION...
High pressure initially in control should promote dry weather at the start
of the day with steady southerly winds around 10 mph. However, rain chances
appear to slightly increase later in the day ahead of a cold front that is expected
to approach the area but there is some uncertainty in the timing of this front
at this time. It appears that the front could move through the area Thursday
morning which should allow most of the day on Wednesday to be rain-free, but if
the frontal passage occurs a bit earlier then rain chances could increase earlier by
Wednesday evening. Otherwise, generally good dispersion conditions are expected by
early to mid afternoon with breezy southerly transport winds in place throughout
the day.
