.DISCUSSION...

yesterday. North to northeast winds will be light, however, about
5 to 10 mph most of the day. Occasional gusts into the low to mid
teens will be possible. Mixing heights will be around 3 to 5 kft
through the day as well. Similar conditions anticipated on
Saturday; dry with relatively light winds, afternoon humidity in
the 30s, and similar stability.
