DISCUSSION
SW WINDS WILL BECOME BETTER ESTABLISHED TODAY, AND STICK WITH US
THROUGH FRIDAY. THOUGH THESE WINDS SHOULD GRADUALLY BRING MORE
HUMIDITY INTO THE AREA, IT WILL NOT BE A QUICK PROCESS FARTHER
INLAND, AND A WARMING TREND WILL SLOW THE INCREASE IN RELATIVE
HUMIDITY VALUES EVEN MORE. EXPECT THURSSDAY'S MINIMUM RH VALUES TO
FALL TO AROUND 30 PERCENT WELL INLAND, CLOSER TO 40 PERCENT AS
ONE MOVES TOWARD THE COAST, AND GENERALLY ABOVE 50 PERCENT RIGHT
AT THE COAST WHERE THE NEWLY ONSHORE WINDS WILL IMPACT MOST
QUICKLY. THOSE VALUES SHOULD INCREASE MODESTLY THROUGH FRIDAY. BY
SATURDAY MORNING, HOWEVER, A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL FILTER DRIER AIR
BACK INTO THE REGION.
AS SURFACE WINDS SHIFT, TRANSPORT WINDS WILL ALSO DO THE SAME,
ENDING THE STRETCH OF OFFSHORE WINDS FOR SMOKE MANAGEMENT,
BECOMING WESTERLY AND THEN SOUTHWESTERLY BY THURSDAY. MIXING
HEIGHTS WILL GENERALLY BE KEPT DOWN BY MORE STABLE AIR, BUT THE
GRADUAL WARMING EXPECTED SHOULD ALLOW THEM TO DRIFT SLIGHTLY
UPWARDS OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS.
