 .DISCUSSION...
 After another very warm evening, and warm and muggy overnight, the 
 new work week will bring a return to unsettled weather, but with 
 little relief from the heat.
 
 High pressure that dominated the Holiday weekend will give way to a 
 slow, wavy front that will wobble around but remain mostly north of 
 the area all week.
 
 Monday will still be hot, and a bit more humid, with the chance for 
 showers and thunderstorms returning in the afternoon, as the front 
 makes its initial approach. Lowland heat indices could get up into 
 the lower to mid 100s, especially in urban spots, before the 
 thunderstorms form.
 
 Showers and thunderstorms, mainly but not exclusively during the 
 afternoon and evening hours, will remain a possibility throughout the 
 week. The clouds and shower and thunderstorm activity will result in 
 slightly lower high temperatures during the week after Monday, but 
 it will remain humid, and nights will remain warm and muggy.
 
 Thunderstorms could bring heavy downpours, which could lead to 
 localized flooding, especially over the middle Ohio Valley on 
 Monday, but then most anywhere on Tuesday, and then mainly over the 
 central Appalachians, but with increasing uncertainty, after that.
