.DISCUSSION...

A push of moisture has begun to make its way over the region,
lifting the forecasted relative humidities above 20%, and
prompting concerns of precipitation. While wetting rain is not
likely directly over the spot location today, a few showers may
develop over the La Sal mountains. This may prompt gusty outflow
winds nearby and lightning in the vicinity. Wetting rain becomes
much more likely tomorrow as the plume of moisture intensifies.
