.DISCUSSION...A strong increase in moisture will bring better
RH values along with a chance of thunderstorms into next week.
Some storms will generate strong and erratic outflow winds.
Moisture is expected to be deep enough for some storms to
generate locally heavy rain. Temperatures may heat back up by mid
week as high pressure builds nearly overhead, however we should
keep some storm chances around.
