High pressure will be overhead just south of the wildfire location Monday and Tuesday. This will result in warmer temperatures closer to late June normals. However, above average atmospheric moisture will remain in place and this will result in the chance for some showers and storms during the afternoon and evening hours. Generally, rainfall amounts through Tuesday evening look to be around 0.25 to 0.75 inches. However, locally heavy rainfall rates and amounts will be possible due to the above average moisture and slow storm motion. This could possibly result in some localized flash flooding. Erratic and gusty winds will also be possible near any storms that develop. The overnight hours will be quieter with partly to mostly cloudy skies and excellent humidity recoveries. A greater coverage of showers and storms is expected mid week. .REST OF TONIGHT... Sky/weather.........Mostly cloudy then becoming partly cloudy.
