 .DISCUSSION...
 Heavy showers and thunderstorms can be expected today into this 
 evening as an upper level disturbance moves atop our moisture laden 
 airmass. Localized high water issues are possible in any more 
 persistent downpours. Some storms may also contain locally damaging 
 wind gusts.
 
 A return to mainly daytime heating driven isolated to scattered 
 showers and thunderstorms is expected for Thursday into Saturday,
