.DISCUSSION...
A combination of weak transport winds and low mixing heights will
generally make for poor ventilation through early next work week.
In addition, periods of thunderstorms will bring soaking rains to
much of the area today through Monday. The heaviest storms may
produce pockets rainfall amounts over 3 inches, while most
locations see rainfall totals (today through Monday) between a
half inch and 2 inches.
