.DISCUSSION...
Temperatures will begin a climb today but remain somewhat below
seasonal averages. Evening thunderstorms are also expected. A few
could be severe with large hail or gusty, shifting winds. Wetting
rains are also possible with the steadiest storms. Warmer
temperatures will continue through the weekend, but winds overall
look light and continuing thunderstorms at times will remain in
the forecast. In short, fire weather concerns will remain low for
the next several days.
