.DISCUSSION...

Dry high pressure will be the main weather feature today and into
Saturday as well. Excellent mixing will keep dispersions in a fair range
despite low level winds generally below 10 mph today, but this will also
result in MinRH values below 30% during the afternoon and evening.
Saturday, flow shifts around towards the west to southwest and picks up
a bit as well, increasing RH values slightly but dispersion as well with
good to borderline high dispersions expected.
