.DISCUSSION...Southwest flow will be in place through the weekend,
with an increase in winds expected on Sunday as a disturbance
passes through northern Utah. Otherwise, a slight increase in
temperature and humidity is expected on Sunday when compared to
Saturday. The biggest difference between the two days will be the
wind. In drainages, we think drainage flow will develop both
Friday night and Saturday night. We do not expect any shower or
thunderstorm activity through the weekend.
