.Discussion...
Dry conditions are expected over the next couple of days, with
minimum relative humidity values dipping below 60% each afternoon
across the Island Chain. Despite the dry conditions, elevated
transport winds this morning will quickly slacken, resulting in
rapidly decreasing dispersion indices for the remainder of the
work week. With high pressure dominating the large-scale pattern,
measurable rain chances will remain very low through Friday.
