.DISCUSSION...
Isolated to scattered thunderstorms remain possible overnight
along with some resultant patchy fog. A cold front moving through
the area on Memorial Day brings a higher chance for organized
thunderstorms, with the potential for a few storms to become
severe. After the front passes, a drier airmass and cooling trend
begins Tuesday and persists through much of the week ahead.
Fog potential for tonight: Patchy fog possible.
