.DISCUSSION...LATE AFTERNOON SHOWERS OVER THE ATLANTIC SHOULD NOT
IMPACT THE MAINLAND OVERNIGHT. EXPECTING THAT THE WINDS WILL BECOME
LIGHT TO CALM AFTER MIDNIGHT AS THE SURFACE LAYER OF THE ATMOSPHERE
DECOUPLES FROM THE LAYERS ABOVE IT VERY SIMILAR TO THE HOURS JUST
BEFORE SUNRISE TODAY. THE COMBINATION OF AN ONSHORE WIND BRINGING
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ASHORE THURSDAY AND ANY SMOLDERING FIRES IN THE
AREA WILL INCREASE THE POTENTIAL FOR A MIXTURE OF FOG AND SMOKE
TOWARD SUNRISE WHICH IS AROUND 0730 FRIDAY MORNING.
