.DISCUSSION...
Partly sunny with light shower potential this afternoon. Shower
potential increases Sunday and Monday with some isolated
thunderstorms possible. Showers and storms Sunday and Monday are
most likely to initiate over elevated terrain near the fire and
then move southwest, although storm motion is expected to be
fairly slow. Otherwise conditions remain fairly stable through
Monday with highs in the mid to low 70s and minimum RHs in the mid
30s to near 40. Winds will be fairly weak and favor a westerly
direction, but gusts from nearby showers and storms will be strong
enough to overcome this tendency leading to possible sudden winds
shifts in the afternoons.
