DISCUSSION...
TRANQUIL WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.
A PASSING BRIEF SHOWER MAY PASS THROUGH THE AREA PRIOR TO MIDNIGHT...
WHICH COULD PRODUCE GUSTY/ERRATIC WIND BEHAVIOR. ACTIVITY WILL NOT BE
WETTING IN NATURE. LOWS WILL BE SLIGHTLY ABOVE AVERAGE...WITH ONLY A
MODEST RECOVERY IN RELATIVE HUMIDITIES. ANOTHER REPEAT PERFORMANCE IS
EXPECTED TOMORROW WITH ISOLATED SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ERUPTING DURING
THE LATE MORNING/EARLY AFTERNOON AND PERSISTING INTO THE EVENING. IT
APPEARS TEMPERATURES AND MINIMUM HUMIDITIES MAY BE FAIRLY SIMILAR AS
COMPARED TO TODAY. DUE TO THE LACK OF OBSERVATIONAL WEATHER DATA...IT
IS UNCLEAR WHETHER MINIMUM HUMIDITIES WILL DIP INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS
AS INDICATED BY THE COYOTE RAWS SITE THIS AFTERNOON. IF THUNDERSTORM
COVERAGE IS LIMITED SIMILAR TO TODAY...THEN THIS MAY BE A POSSIBILITY.
