.DISCUSSION...

RH values will drop into the mid to upper 20 percent this afternoon post
dry cold front. Luckily, surface wind speeds will only be around 5
to 10 mph post front, and therefore just above elevated fire
danger headlines. Mixing heights will exceed 4 thousand feet by
this afternoon and evening, with transport winds in the 5 to 10
mph range resulting in fair dispersion values. Flow will back
gradually throughout the day, becoming more westerly by this
evening. Wind speeds increase throughout the boundary layer
Saturday and result in good to high dispersions in a westerly
flow. RH values will be slightly higher, but still in the upper 20
percent.
