Charles, I believe you submitted a spot around 9 AM on July 4th but we
did not receive it, so I recreated one using on of the previous spot
request you gave us and just changed the date/time group to current
date time. When you get this please give us a call. Hodanish

   *****************************************

Meteorologically...

Not much in the way of any significant weather the next few days. A
large ridge of high pressure at mid levels is going to develop over
the western United States and this will cause mid level northwesterly
flow to develop over the region. This pattern will bring dry air in
from the northwest but the temperatures will be relatively normally
for the foreseeable future.

During the afternoon when the atmosphere is well mixed the northwesterly
flow will be brought down to the surface, while at night/early AM flow
will be diurnally driven by the terrain.
