.DISCUSSION...
Warm and dry conditions expected today as high pressure remains
over the state. Minimum RH values this afternoon will drop into
the lower 40s but should remain above critical thresholds, with
winds in the 10-15 mph range. Gradient tightens into the weekend,
favoring an uptick in winds on Saturday that will likely lead to
higher dispersions during the afternoon hours. Additional fire
weather concerns expected to remain low, however, as minimum RH
values should remain above critical thresholds.
