.DISCUSSION...
Minimum precipitation chances today will carry over into Sunday,
while area max temperature rises from the upper 70s to the lower
80s.  An uptick in southerly, veering westerly, wind should bump
dewpoints enough to offset the higher temperature and keep
minimum humidities in the lower 40s. A few more cumulus and cirrus
clouds may also limit the degree of daytime heating and help
prevent further humidity bottoming.

An isolated shower after 8pm Sunday can`t be ruled out, but
prevailing dry conditions is the more likely outcome.  Similar,
but slightly warmer, conditions are favored Monday with a low
probability for an afternoon shower or thunderstorm.
