Service.

.DISCUSSION...

Most of the week will be unseasonably cool as an upper level
area of low pressure lingers for most, if not all, of the weekend
and the upcoming workweek. As such forecast temperatures will be
on the cool side of normal for this time of year with daytime highs
in the 60s...which should help when it comes to keeping cool in
level A suits. Rain Tuesday night and Wednesday may make for a wet
training ground as there is a 40 percent chance of receiving one
quarter inch of rainfall and only a 10 percent chance of receiving
one half inch of rainfall.  Any thunderstorms that form are expected
to be the weak short lived pulse variety type with the main concern
being the infrequent lightning and and gusty wind, and perhaps some
small hail. -Rocco
