The main hazard this afternoon through Thursday will be low chances for isolated convection at or near the incident location. The most likely timing, IF showers or storms occur in the incident area, would be the afternoon hours. Lightning and gusty winds will be the main threats. Low level boundary layer winds will generally be from the south or southeast at less than 10 mph through the end of the week, but winds could become gusty and erratic if any convection occurs nearby. Otherwise, seasonal temperatures and mostly sunny skies are expected. .REST OF TODAY... Sky/weather.........Sunny (20-30 percent). Temperature.........85 at forecast start...Max 94.
