.DISCUSSION...
Although the weekend will be dry, high humidity is expected, and
smoke dispersion will be poor. Our next round of rainfall will
arrive over the Mark Twain Monday. A wetting rain is expected
throughout the region Monday night into early Tuesday. A cold
front Tuesday night will usher cooler and much drier air into the
region for Wednesday through the holiday weekend.
