.DISCUSSION...

Warm and dry conditions will be in place for the next several days.
Humidity levels will remain near 15% this afternoon and be slow to
climb early evening. Overnight recoveries will be moderate, around
50%, with similarly warm and dry conditions expected tomorrow.

Prevailing wind direction will remain out of the east through the
remainder of the afternoon, shifting slightly to the southeast
in the evening before becoming increasingly light and variable
overnight. During the early morning hours, light drainage
winds (downslope and downvalley) are favored, mostly from the west.

Winds will turn upslope/easterly again tomorrow from mid to late
morning, with that transition likely occurring between 9-11 AM. A
few gusts to near 20 mph will be possible in the afternoon.
