.DISCUSSION...
Expect dry weather with warmer temperatures into Friday. For this
weekend, rainfall chances will increase thanks to a slow moving
front that looks to stall over the region. Another cold front
brings an end to the rain and reinforces cooler weather for next
week. Minimum RH values drop to 35 to 55 percent next week. We
cool down with the front into next week. Overall, there are
currently no fire weather concerns at this time.
