Where are you getting your numbers? You high is correct for Silverlakes for Saturday, but at that time, approx. 3 PM, the humidity for Silverlakes is predicted to be 29%. 71% humidity occurs at 2 AM. http://www.intellicast.com/Local/Hourly.aspx?location=USCA0772

Same for Temecula. 92, with 36% humidity at 2 PM.

Your info can be helpful, but just want to make sure it is correct. Is it possible you are just gathering the high humidity and temperature for each day?
 
San Diego has 30% (40% inland) chance of rain this weekend. After what Albion went through two years ago, I hope they have a plan this year. At least the weather will be good with overcast, slightly humid and daytime temps 70-80 degrees. Should be much nicer than those inland locations.

Good point! I am pulling from Weather Underground, which doesn't chart predicted humidity per hour. Looks like humidity will vary at each of those locations throughout the day, and the Heat Index with it, from 82% humidity at 6am to a low of 30% at 4pm. Maybe an early morning game isn't preferable!
