Relatively deep moisture will keep RH values on the higher side
into next week, along with daily chances for thunderstorms.

locally heavy rain. Winds should generally remain below 15 mph
each afternoon, though occasional gusts to 20 mph are possible.
Stronger erratic outflows with some thunderstorms.
