.DISCUSSION...
High pressure is centered south of our region. Clockwise wind
flow around the high will result in westerly winds across the
area today and Thursday. In general, expect increasing
temperatures and dry conditions through the remainder of the
week. It will remain windy, with gusty westerly winds
persisting through Thursday before diminishing. The biggest
concern over the next several days will be the wind and its
potential to contribute to elevated fire danger.
