There is little change to the forecast overall. The Rex-block
like pattern holds coolish 70s and 50s temps here thru the
weekend into early next week, with the only rain chances
peripheral and minimal glancing shots at best. The ridge breaks
down by mid week as a SW-4 Low develops and sweeps into/across
the Plains. Its approach while the surface flow shifts to
southerlies enables a mid-late week warmup back into the
80s/60s, with dew points and rain chances coincident
reappearance over the back half of the week.
