.DISCUSSION...
A significant increase in moisture is expected today with
intervals of showers and thunderstorms into Tuesday. Wetting rain
chances peak tonight into Tuesday morning when the heaviest rain
is expected. Rainfall totals are forecast between 1 to 3 inches on
average, with locally higher amounts over the Kentucky Pennyrile.
The lack of mixing in the boundary layer will yield poor
dispersion each day.
