DISCUSSION
AFTER A DRY DAY TODAY WITH RHS DIPPING INTO THE 20S, MOISTURE
WILL INCREASE ONCE AGAIN THIS EVENING AS RAIN CHANCES INCREASE.
ALTHOUGH THIS SHOWER ACTIVITY IS SLATED TO CLEAR OUT SATURDAY
MORNING, LOW CHANCES OF SHOWERS RETURNS FOR SATURDAY EVENING.
MINIMUM RH VALUES WILL THEREFORE BE WELL ABOVE ANY CRITICAL
THRESHOLDS ON SATURDAY; BUT, THIS WILL BE SHORT-LIVED, AS RH
VALUES ARE FORECAST TO DROP INTO THE UPPER 20S TO AROUND 40
PERCENT ON SUNDAY. WESTERLY TRANSPORT WINDS SHIFT TO BE OUT OF THE
NORTH THROUGH THE DAY ON SATURDAY AND INCREASE TO BETWEEN 10-20
MPH DURING THIS TIME. HOWEVER, BY SUNDAY, EXPECT NORTHWEST
TRANSPORT WINDS BETWEEN 25-35 MPH TO DEVELOP. ADDITIONALLY, MIXING
HEIGHTS BETWEEN 1500-4500 FEET ARE ANTICIPATED ON SATURDAY, WITH
HEIGHTS BETWEEN 4000-6300 FEET ON SUNDAY. LASTLY, FAIR DAYTIME
DISPERSIONS ON SATURDAY ARE FORECAST TO IMPROVE TO BE GOOD TO VERY
GOOD ON SUNDAY.
FOG POTENTIAL OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS: NONE AT THIS TIME.
POTENTIAL FOR RED FLAG CONDITIONS: ALTHOUGH RHS DROP INTO THE 20
PERCENT RANGE FOR SOME LOCATIONS AND WINDS ARE ELEVATED ON SUNDAY,
THE NICC HAS THE REGION IN A LITTLE TO NO RISK OF SIGNIFICANT
FIRE POTENTIAL. THEREFORE, THERE IS NO POTENTIAL FOR RED FLAG
CONDITIONS AT THIS TIME.
