.DISCUSSION...

Quiet weather with peeks of sunshine is expected to continue
through Monday with winds light and variable. Winds will continue
to be light on Tuesday but prevail from the southeast for most of
the day. Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, winds could become
more easterly, but by the afternoon, winds should return to
southeasterly for the rest of the afternoon. As the front
approaches Thursday and Friday, winds will likely shift east to
northeast.

Cloud cover will increase Monday night and become mostly cloudy
for the rest of this week. A chance of rain is possible around
midweek, though rainfall amounts should be light. Chances for rain
are becoming increasing likely for the later half, especially for
Friday. Confidence is low between Thursday through the end of the
week for the timing of a front that will bring precipitation and
increasing northeasterly winds. The visibility forecast could
change depending on how the late week system evolves, but it will
be related to rainfall rates and the precipitation forecast.
