.DISCUSSION...
...RELATIVE HUMIDITY LEVELS TO FALL TO 20 TO 25 PERCENT THIS AFTERNOON...

DRY AIR WILL WEDGE IN FROM THE EAST...WHICH WILL LEAD TO LOW
HUMIDITY LEVELS UNDER 30 PERCENT DURING THE AFTERNOON. THE WIND WILL BE
LIGHTER THAN YESTERDAY...GENERALLY 5 TO 15 MPH FROM A SOUTH TO
SOUTHEASTERLY DIRECTION.

CLEAR CALM AND CHILLY TONIGHT LEADING TO A NEARLY FULL RECOVERY IN
MOST PLACES...PROMOTING THE FORMATION OF A LITTLE DEW OR EVEN FROST.

TOMORROW WITH LOTS OF SUNSHINE...RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES LOOK TO
DROP TO BELOW 30 PERCENT REGION WIDE DURING THE AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...THE
WIND WILL BE LIGHT OUT OF THE SOUTH 5 TO 10 MPH.

IT LOOKS AS IF WE ARE HEADED INTO AN EXTENDED DRY PERIOD. THERE IS
NO CLEAR INDICATION WHEN OUR NEXT CHANCE OF SIGNIFICANT WETTING RAIN
WILL TAKE PLACE. FORTUNATELY...WE DO NOT SEE ANY SIGNIFICANT WIND
EVENTS AT THIS TIME ALTHOUGH IT MIGHT TURN A LITTLE BREEZY ON FRIDAY
AS WIND FROM A ATLANTIC LOW PRESSURE BRUSH OUR REGION BEFORE MOVING
BY.
