DISCUSSION
A MILD AND DRY AIRMASS REMAINS OVER THE AREA TODAY. DESPITE EASTERLY
WINDS, THERE IS A VERY DRY LAYER ABOVE THE SURFACE WHICH WILL EASILY
BE REACHED BY THE MIXING HEIGHT. THIS WILL HELP TRANSPORT SOME EVEN
DRIER AIR TO THE SURFACE. HAVE UPDATED THE FORECAST WITH THE LATEST
GUIDANCE, WHICH INDICATES SLIGHTLY COOLER TEMPS, BUT THE DEW POINTS
REMAIN NEARLY THE SAME. THIS STILL DROPS RH BELOW 25% BUT THE MINIMUM
RH IS SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN THE PREVIOUS FORECAST.
