.DISCUSSION...

Quiet, dry, and seasonable conditions are expected to continue 
through Wednesday, thanks to high pressure in place across the area. 
However, a stray shower cannot be ruled out through tonight, but 
confidence remains low, and amounts would be extremely light. MinRh 
values will be lowest this afternoon, between 25-35%, increasing to 
near 40% on Monday and to over 50% by Tuesday, despite temperatures 
rising to well above normal. Winds are expected to remain light 
each day, increasing by Wednesday out of the southeast, gusting up 
to 20 mph in the mountains. 

Although rainfall amounts with the mid to late week system are 
trending downward, the entire area is still expected to receive a 
wetting rainfall, particularly along/west of the Blue Ridge.
