   normal temperatures, with below normal temperatures expected
   Wednesday in areas adjacent to the Delta.
 - Smoke will continue to impact areas in the vicinity of the
   Green Fire, though more southerly winds this evening and on
   Wednesday should keep most smoke out of the Valley during the
   day.
 - Locally breezy northerly flow in the northern/central
   Sacramento Valley and adjacent terrain which may allow smoke
   from the Green Fire into the Valley, mainly in the overnight

- 20 to 50% in the central and northern Sacramento Valley

   closer to the Delta. Daytime humidities and overnight
   humidities decrease again Friday and into the weekend.

   troughing/northwesterly flow across interior NorCal.
 - Near seasonable temperatures continue late in the week,
   increasing slightly over the weekend, before cooling again
   early next week.

   afternoon and evening late this week, shifting toward terrain
   driven influence during the overnight hours.
