.DISCUSSION...
A STALLED BOUNDARY TO THE NORTH WILL BEGIN TO LIFT NORTHWARD TODAY
AS SOUTHERLY FLOW PUSHES IT SLOWLY OUT OF CENTRAL FLORIDA OVER THE
NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. THIS WILL LESSEN THE CHANCE OF ANY PRECIPITATION
FOR TODAY. TOMORROW, A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST,
INCREASING CHANCES FOR RAIN TOMORROW. THERE MAY EVEN BE AN ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORM. WINDS WILL BE BETWEEN 5 AND 10 MPH. RELATIVE HUMIDITY
WILL DROP INTO THE LOW 40S THIS AFTERNOON.

PATCHY FOG THIS MORNING WILL BURN OFF IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS.
THERE IS ANOTHER ROUND OF PATCHY FOG EXPECTED FOR THE AREA TOMORROW,
WHICH WILL INCREASE IN LIKELIHOOD IF THERE ARE AND SHOWERS AROUND
TODAY.
