.DISCUSSION...
A PARTLY TO MOSTLY SUNNY SKY WILL PREVAIL OVER THE FIRE THE REST
OF TODAY. THE UNSETTLED PATTERN REMAINS IN PLACE SO CANNOT RULE
OUT A THUNDERSTORM LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO THIS EVENING
ALTHOUGH THE POTENTIAL APPEARS TO BE LESS THAN 30 PERCENT.
ABUNDANT SUNSHINE WILL PUSH TEMPERATURES WELL INTO THE 90S WITH
RELATIVE HUMIDITIES DOWN TO NEAR 20 PERCENT. RELATIVE HUMIDITY
RECOVERY OVERNIGHT WILL ONLY REBOUND TO ABOUT 60 PERCENT.
ANTICIPATE MUCH OF THE SAME FOR MONDAY.
