.DISCUSSION...
Clouds will be pushing in today with highs likely to peak in the low to
mid 50s with fairly light east to southeast winds. Mixing will
likely peak in the 3500 ft range with pretty good smoke dispersal.
Increasing chance for rain into the afternoon but given the
further north location this location should avoid much of the rain
this afternoon. No major concerns for the forecast to change in
any dramatic fashion outside of a rain shower pushing in a bit
earlier than expected.
