.DISCUSSION...

After this batch of showers and storms push through this morning,
there is a low chance for strong to severe storms this afternoon
into this evening. Westerly transport winds ~13 mph will weaken
tomorrow hovering around critical thresholds. Thanks to the mixing
heights, dispersions will be Good both days. Drier but much
hotter pattern the rest of this week and into next week, putting
dangerous heat as our primary concern. This will create lower RH
values and even lighter winds later this week.

Fog potential over the next few days: Patchy fog possible this
morning.

Potential for Red Flag Conditions: None.
