.DISCUSSION...

Look for sunny skies today with light southerly winds in the
morning increasing to around 5 to 10 mph by the afternoon.
Humidity values in the morning will be around 90 percent,
decreasing to 55 to 60 percent in the afternoon. The combination
of lower mixing heights of 500-1500 ft and light winds will lead
to poor to fair smoke dispersal conditions. A cold front moves
through early Saturday morning, resulting in winds switching to
the northwest shortly after sunrise. No wetting rain is forecast
for the next few days.
