DISCUSSION...
WINDS WILL LARGELY BE DOMINATED BY THE TERRAIN TODAY ALTHOUGH THERE
WILL BE SOME SORT OF NORTHERLY COMPONENT FOR A TIME. A LITTLE
BETTER VENTILATION IS EXPECTED TODAY THANKS TO SLIGHTLY HIGHER
TRANSPORT WINDS ALTHOUGH THE TRANSPORT WIND DIRECTION WILL BE
NORTH OR NORTHEASTERLY MOST OF THE DAY. EXCELLENT HUMIDITY
RECOVERIES EXPECTED TONIGHT AND THIS WILL BE ACCOMPANIED WITH A
HARD FREEZE. TERRAIN INFLUENCED WINDS EXPECTED ON THURSDAY WITH A
LIGHTER FLOW OVERALL. THIS WILL LEAD TO LESSENING VENTILATION.
