.DISCUSSION...
A cold front will cross the region Thursday night through
Friday. In the wake of the front, a cooler and drier air mass
will advect into the region. There will be a slight breeze
behind the front on Friday with winds occasionally gusting to
around 20 mph. RH values will gradually fall Friday afternoon
with values reaching 35 to 45 percent by the late afternoon
hours. Lower RH values are expected on Saturday (25 to 35
percent) though winds will be lighter on the order of 5-10 mph.
Additionally, little to no appreciable rainfall is expected
through the next 7 days. Therefore, dry conditions are expected
to continue through at least early next week with increasing
rainfall deficits.
