.DISCUSSION....
High pressure will remain centered off the coast through the end
of the week bringing temps well above normal along with higher
relative humidity. While well above normal to near record warmth will
continue to help accelerate greenup, it will also continue to further
the drought due to a continued lack of appreciable rainfall. The next
chance of wetting precipitation looks to come late this weekend or
early next week.
