.DISCUSSION...
Good afternoon, conditions look to remain dry through the day
Wednesday. Relative humidity values are forecast to start around
65 percent near sunrise. Though, given the proximity to the lake
and light winds, RHs could start off 10 to 20 percent higher than
this. RH values quickly drop with sunrise to around 25 percent by
noon and bottom out in the upper teen percentages. No morning fog
is expected at this time and afternoon RH values would be within
at least fire danger statement criteria. Winds in the morning will
be out of the Southwest at less than 5 mph and slowly climb
through the morning. Winds after noon will peak at 8 to 13 mph
with gusts up to 25 mph possible, remaining out of the southwest.
Transport winds in the morning will be less than 5 mph and will
increase through the late morning to 20 to 25 mph out of the
southwest.
Mixing heights tomorrow climb to 4 to 5 kft by the afternoon.
LVORI values after 10am of 1 and 2. Skies remain clear to lightly
scattered through the day with no precipitation forecast until
Thursday morning. Any precipitation Thursday morning will be light
with limited accumulations of up to 0.1".
We will rerun this spot forecast before 8am on Wednesday, however
if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to reach
out to us.
