.DISCUSSION....
High pressure will remain centered off the coast through the
weekend bringing temps well above normal along with higher
relative humidity. The next chance of wetting precipitation
looks to come early next week and the slow moving nature of
the system may allow for appreciable rainfall amounts. Cool
high pressure builds in for the middle of next week.

Very patchy fog will be possible through 9 AM this morning. SSW
winds will increase through the day with gusts 20 to 25 mph this
afternoon.
