.DISCUSSION...

An increasingly active and unsettled weather pattern will evolve
through the first half of the week with increasing chances of
showers and thunderstorms through Monday night and Tuesday as a
cold front slowly approaches. Rainfall totals are forecast to
range from one half to 2 inches, with locally higher totals
possible, especially along the I-64 corridor. Much cooler
conditions and lower humidity can be expected behind the cold
front for the rest of the week. Fair to poor dispersion is
anticipated through Monday.
