.DISCUSSION...

afternoon minimum relative humidity will remain above 30 percent
across the region, with surface winds holding below 10 mph. The 
next chance for wetting rainfall will be Monday, more so across 
northwest North Carolina, as a weak disturbance passes across

quarter inch for most, but will be locally higher if any storms 
develop.
