.DISCUSSION...
Dry weather persists through at least next Tuesday, with
MinRH values in the 30-40% range each day. With high pressure
dominating the weather pattern, winds will remain light through
Tuesday.
Temperatures fall back to around normal beginning today, with
highs in the 50s/60s. This is in part due to the passing cold
front, but also due to heavy cloud cover that moves in later today and
lingers through the weekend and most of next week. Despite this,
the next chance of rain does not arrive until Wednesday afternoon at
the earliest.
