.DISCUSSION...

By noon, the morning inversion will be mostly broken with mixing
heights steady climbing to around 2500 - 3000 ft by 3pm. Southerly
winds will be dominant this afternoon. Expect gusts up to 20 to 25
mph. Today`s relative humidity values will bottom near 40% between
1pm and 4pm. However, if mixing is more efficient than forecast,
this value may decrease. If it does decrease, it will likely not
fall enough to cause any elevated fire concerns.
