 .DISCUSSION...
 Friday will be dry and very warm, with relative humidity values 
 potentially lowering into the 20s to 30s during the afternoon. Winds 
 should remain fairly light across the majority of the area, though 
 some gusts into the 15 to 25 mph range could be possible along the 
 higher mountain ridges.
 
 A cold front brings a better likelihood for storms Saturday 
 afternoon and evening, with a conditional wetting rain into Saturday 
 night. Temperatures remain unusually warm into Saturday, then the 
 front ushers in much colder air with potential for critically low 
 minimum afternoon relative humidity percentages in the 20s Monday 
 and Tuesday of next week.
