.DISCUSSION...
HIGH PRESSURE WHICH HAS PRODUCED THE HOT AND DRY CONDITIONS OVER
THE PAST WEEK IS CURRENTLY WEAKENING. THIS WILL RESULT IN A COOLING
TREND AND ALLOW FOR A STEADY INCREASE IN RELATIVE HUMIDITIES THIS
WEEK. WEAK WEATHER DISTURBANCES WILL BRING AN INCREASE IN WINDS
DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS EACH DAY THIS WEEK. THE BREEZIEST
CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY OCCUR THURSDAY EVENING WHEN A MOSTLY DRY
COLD FRONT PASSES. A STRONGER STORM SYSTEM WILL BRING ANOTHER BOUT
OF WIND AND A CHANCE OF LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS TO THE AREA ON SUNDAY.
