.DISCUSSION...

A few hours of patchy fog can be expected this morning, but this
fog should lift by mid-morning. Expect partly cloudy skies today,
with highs in the lower 90s. Mixing heights should climb just
above 4500 ft this afternoon, with min RH percent values in the
mid to upper 40s. Expect 20 foot southerly winds between 5 to 10
mph. Low clouds will return by Saturday morning near daybreak,
then lift by mid to late morning. Can`t rule out some brief patchy
fog, although at the moment, winds look to be just high enough to
help mitigate that.
