.DISCUSSION...

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE OVER THE AREA THROUGH SUNDAY
PROVIDING CLEAR SKIES...DRY WEATHER AND LOW HUMIDITY.
THE DRY AIRMASS WILL SUPPORT A RELATIVELY COOL
START TO THE DAY SUNDAY...WITH POTENTIAL FOR FROST
IN THE VALLEY SUNDAY MORNING. TEMPERATURES WILL TREND
A BIT WARMER FOR SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

HUMIDITY RECOVERY TONIGHT WILL BE POOR IN THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS
BUT GOOD IN THE VALLEYS DUE TO THE LIGHT WINDS AND POOR MIXING.
LOOK FOR ANOTHER DRY AFTERNOON SUNDAY WITH HUMIDITY MINIMUMS
AS LOW AS 20 PERCENT DURING THE AFTERNOON.

WITH HIGH PRESSURE OVERHEAD...WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BE LIGHT.

A WEAK FRONT WILL BRING SOME CLOUDS MONDAY.  THE CHANCE OF
WETTING RAIN IS PRETTY SLIM.
