.DISCUSSION...

Winds will continue to weaken as high pressure builds across.  
Humidity recovery overnight will be good in the valleys, but 
fair to poor along the ridgetops. Ahead of a cold front Friday,
southwest winds look to increase with gusts to 20-25 mph
possible, but RH values will also be on the rise, along with
increasing clouds. Wetting showers anticipated Friday night may
help but not expecting a lot of rain.
