.DISCUSSION...Monsoonal moisture is moving into the area and will
continue to increase through Tuesday. After that, the moisture

capable of producing gusty and erratic winds, with a decent chance
of wetting rainfall. Outside of thunderstorms, winds will be
generally light and terrain driven throughout the week with
temperatures dropping to around seasonal normals by Wednesday.
