...Dry Afternoon RH Through Tuesday...

.DISCUSSION...High pressure will keep fair weather and a dry low-
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
period of near-critical fire weather conditions is possible
Tuesday afternoon as south to southwesterly winds increase ahead
of an approaching, but weakening, weather system.
