Cooler conditions expected again today with increasing moist NW flow, keeping RH values above 50%. Gusts up to 15 mph possible with afternoon daytime heating. Winds may become more W in the afternoon while being funneled into the Klamath River Valley, briefly SW in the early evening. Marine stratus to have a lesser inland extent overnight. Offshore flow should enhance warming and drying, tamping down the marine layer Friday morning to allow for a quicker mix out. .REST OF TODAY...
