level air mass in place through Tuesday while temperatures
moderate to well above normal. This will result in critical RH
values during afternoon periods for the next several days, but
will be accompanied by light winds, at least through Monday. A

Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons as south to southwesterly winds
increase ahead of a weakening weather system which passes through
