.DISCUSSION...

High pressure skirting by to the south today will bring drier and
light westerly winds to southern WI. Hazy surface conditions due
to deeper mixing heights exceeding 4kft bringing down Canadian
wildfire smoke to the surface through the afternoon. Min RHs will
be lower than previous days, but still ranging from around 50 to
60 percent. Light southerly winds and slightly higher min RHs
return Monday as high pressure pushes east.
