 .DISCUSSION...
 A very dry air mass has settled into the region.  Minimum relative 
 humidity during the afternoons through Friday will generally bottom 
 out in the 20 percent range for most areas, however, pockets of 
 relative humidity in the teens are possible in some locations.
 
 Winds will be lighter today than previous days, but a southeasterly 
 downslope component will kick in near the higher terrain after 
 sunset on Wednesday replacing light northerly winds.
 
 While some low end rain chances exist late Friday into Saturday, a 
 widespread wetting rain is not expected until at least the middle of 
 next week.
