 .DISCUSSION...
 Daily chances of afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms 
 will persist amid warm and muggy conditions this week. Locally heavy 
 downpours could lead to some instances of flooding, particularly as 
 the ground becomes saturated by successive days of rain.
 
 There is also a small risk of an isolated storm or two producing 
 strong gusty winds today or Thursday.
 
 Lowland areas will consistently see highs in the upper 80s to mid 
 90s this week with heat indices in the mid to upper 90s given the 
 muggy conditions.
