.DISCUSSION...

A slow moving low pressure system will start to dissipate over
the area today and tomorrow. High pressure over Florida and the
eastern Gulf will then spread back over the area as we move into
next week. Prevailing southerly winds of 5 to 10 mph will be the
rule, and this will keep minimum RH values of 50 to 70 percent
for each afternoon in place through early next week. Scattered to
numerous showers and storms will also occur each day through
early next week. Fog development is not expected in the area
tonight.
