Winds will generally remain light thru the week to come with the
exception of stronger winds near showers and storms. With some
moisture expected to linger across the region, afternoon and
evening thunderstorms will remain possible. The mountains will see
the best chances for wetting precip early in the week with all
areas joining in later in the week. Lowland temps will return to
the triple digits thru midweek and then cool a bit towards the
weekend.
