.DISCUSSION...
Showers and thunderstorms will continue through Tuesday, with
showers lingering near the Indiana state line into Tuesday night
and Wednesday morning. This will offer little time for fuels to
dry before the next system brings more rain to the region Thursday
into Friday. Vent rates will also be poor to fair on Wednesday as
mixing heights remain shallow and transport winds in the 10-15
mph range.
