High confidence that it will be quite windy today with southeasterly sustained 20 ft winds at 15-20 mph and gusts at 25-35 mph. Nearest RAWs site has observed gusts a bit earlier than anticipated, which may give credence to slightly higher wind gusts this afternoon than currently forecasted. These gusty winds will slowly pivot to southwesterly by the middle of Wednesday morning, with a decreasing trend after noon. Minimum relative humidities will not be too bad today. Current forecast is between 30 and 40%. Even our models that have a very dry bias show MinRHs around 30-35%, so this is medium-high confidence. The only aspect that gives me pause, is this is a departing surface high pressure pattern, which usually yields slower moisture return and a bit lower dewpoints/RHs. We will monitor, but our drier models still hold above 30%. .TODAY... TIME (CDT) 6AM 7AM 8AM 9AM 10A 11A 12P 1PM 2PM 3PM 4PM 5PM Sky (%).........65 70 49 23 16 23 34 45 37 40 52 43 Weather cov.....
