.DISCUSSION...
Currently seeing RH improve across the area, with steady increase in
moisture and light winds expected overnight. Could see occasional S
breeze during the first part of the night. Expect RH to drop into the
lower 40s on Sunday afternoon alongside winds of 3-6mph with gusts up
to 12mph during peak heating in the afternoon.
Unfortunately, no rain is expected to affect the area for the next
several days. There`s a very small possibility that a shower could make
it to the area on Sunday afternoon, but even if this happens, it`ll
be brief and produce very little accumulating rainfall.
If you have questions, contact the office at any time and a meteorologist
will assist you.
