DISCUSSION
DRY WEATHER WILL CONTINUE THIS WEEK, ALONG WITH ABOVE NORMAL
DAYTIME TEMPERATURES. HIGHS SHOULD REACH THE MID 70S EACH AFTERNOON, FALLING
INTO THE 40S AT NIGHT. TODAY AND TUESDAY, THE LINGERING INFLUENCE OF HIGH

THERE SHOULD ALSO BE LARGE SWINGS BETWEEN AFTERNOON RH VALUES IN THE 30-40%
RANGE, WITH NIGHTTIME RECOVERY TO 80+%. WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY, A WEAK SYSTEM
PASSING TO THE NORTH OF THE AREA MAY BRING A SLIGHTLY STRONGER SW BREEZE, THOUGH
THIS SHOULD ONLY GET TRANSPORT WINDS UP TO AROUND 10 KT. DAYTIME MIXING DEPTHS
SHOULD BE FAIRLY CONSISTENT AROUND 4-5K FT, ALTHOUGH INCREASING MID- AND HIGH
CLOUDS TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY MAY LIMIT THIS.
