GOOD MORNING. HIGH CLOUDS WILL THINK OUT TODAY GIVING A GOOD DEAL
OF SUN. MAIN ISSUE WILL BE WIND AND HUMIDITY. SOUTH WINDS NOW NEAR
KITTSON AT 5 TO 10 MPH AND THEY WILL TURN SOUTHWEST MID TO LATE
MORNING AND THEN MORE WEST MID AFTERNOON AS A TROUGH OF LOW
PRESSURE MOVES THROUGH. A BIT BREEZY 2-5 PM WITH THE WEST WINDS 15
TO 25 MPH WITH A FEW HIGHER GUSTS POSSIBLE. WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES
CLIMBINB INTO THE UPPER 60S DO LOOK FOR RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES
TO DROP INTO THE UPPER 20S PERCENT AT PEAK HEATING...3-4 PM TIME
FRAME. WINDS WILL DIMINISH QUICKLY AROUND SUNSET. GOOD MIXING
TODAY BUT AS WINDS DIMINISH INVERSION SETTING UP AROUND SUNSET.
