.DISCUSSION...

Rain showers will return to the higher terrain this afternoon with
breezy winds continuing, although they will be less than what was
seen the previous couple days. The rest of the week is leaning
toward a cool and unsettled weather pattern with a short- lived
drying period Wednesday into Thursday although there remains
considerable uncertainty regarding day to day details, especially
outside the Basin which carries the greatest risk for showers.
