.DISCUSSION...
Quiet weather continues this afternoon, with seasonably cool
temperatures and minimum relative humidity in the 35 to 50 percent
range. Northerly winds are gusting to around 20 mph.
A strong cold front will move through the area Thursday, with very
windy conditions expected across the forecast area. Northwest
winds gusting to 55 mph are likely, with low to medium chances for
showers and a few thunderstorms north and central. This will help
keep relative humidity somewhat elevated, around 40 percent or
higher, with the exception of the far southwest where some 30s are
possible.
Winds diminish some on Friday with a return to cooler
temperatures, with northwest winds around 15 to 20 mph. Minimum
relative humidity will be in the 30 percent range southwest and
higher elsewhere.
Dry conditions and light winds persist through the weekend, with
the lowest relative humidity values in the 20 percent range in the
southwest.
