.DISCUSSION...

Slightly cooler temperatures on Saturday will give way to another
warming trend through mid next week. Luckily, persistant southerly
flow over recent days has brought up RH values to be in the 50s
and low 60s. Expect RH`s to generally remain in the 40-60% range
over the next several days until a series of upper-level lows
bring rain back into the forecast during the latter half of next
week.
