.DISCUSSION...

There is a very low chance for a shower or thunderstorm to form in the
late afternoon or early evening hours and a near zero chance of a
wetting rain. However there is a likely potential for outflow
winds from distant storm or sea-breeze by around 6 PM. High
temperatures threatening to reach 100 could aid in the gusty wind
potential, should a thunderstorm form within 15 miles of the area.
In the absence of storm outflows a mainly due south wind is expected
through the morning with an SSE/SE direction possible by late in the
afternoon. Most of the daytime wind speeds will be lower than 10
mph, but 10 to 20 mph winds and slightly higher gusts to 25 mph are
possible near storms or when an evening sea-breeze arrives. Minimum
RH values should be in the 36 to 40 percent range. Very similar
conditions are forecast for daytime Saturday.
