...DISPERSION INDICES BELOW 20 EXPECTED TODAY...

.Discussion...
Light to gentle east to southeast breezes will become variable at
times this afternoon and evening. The lack of flow and associated
transport winds will support low dispersion indices today.
Despite the poor dispersion, minimum relative humidity values will
remain above 60% for each forecast period. Similar conditions
will continue for the next several days, including near-nil rain
and thunder chances. Temperatures will be above normal, with highs
in the upper 80s, and lows struggling to fall below 80 in the
overnight periods.
