.DISCUSSION...There will be a little more wind this afternoon, but
strong winds are quite unlikely. Afternoon snow showers are
expected to be light, with accumulation of an inch or less. Winds
will be lighter on Saturday, with warmer and drier conditions. The
winds will limit smoke dispersal, but marginally fair conditions
are expected in the afternoon. Sunday and Monday will have better
dispersal with warmer temperatures and just a little bit more
wind.
