Reflection

Daily Summary So Far — this cycle will be validated at the next planning cycle.

Hypothesis

Testing: Guardrail-compatible Saturday hot-dry posture: preserve dew safety and keep daylight wet/fog assist band-coupled; judge success by lower VPD/heat severity and fewer guardrail conflicts, not full corridor recovery. Expected outcome: By sunset/midnight: 0h dew-risk, cold, and VPD-low stress; VPD-high and heat stress likely persist but should stay near or below recent hot-dry baseline severity; wet/fog assist should remain available during daylight VENTILATE while dew margin is safe.
