.DISCUSSION...
Humidity will remain high this morning, then a cold front crosses
which will allow for better mixing, clearing, and drying. Tuesday
will be the driest day of the period, with mostly sunny skies and
temperatures warming into the 70s over most of the area. Though,
light winds will allow a seabreeze to develop. Rainy weather
returns with a couple waves crossing through the area through the
middle and end of the week.
