.DISCUSSION... Excellent (95-100%) humidity recoveries this
morning due to an approaching cold front and persistent light rain
associated with a dissipating atmospheric river event. As a
result, rain chances will decrease through the day. The cold front
will bring breezy conditions this morning, slowly tapering off
through the evening hours as it retreats north. Rain amounts
today are expected to reach around a wetting rain (0.10").
