.DISCUSSION...

A rather pleasant couple of days are in store today and Saturday with
highs in the upper 80s, minimum relative humidity around 40%, and
partly cloudy skies with light easterly to north-northeasterly
winds. Due to the southeast aspect of the prescribed location,
minimum relative humidity may be a bit lower to around 30-35%,
with upslope winds adding a couple mph to the current forecast
(5-10 mph total).

The mixed layer will be a bit shallow today at around 4-6 kft due
to the recent passage of a cold front. Saturday should be a bit
higher at 5-7 kft with more fair ventrates. Another cold frontal
passage Saturday night into Sunday would likely produce a shallow
inversion into early next week.
