.DISCUSSION...

After today, cooler weather develops with a damp weekend expected.
Rain exits the area Sunday night into Monday morning and no rain 
is expected through the next work week. The fall fire weather
season may be a growing concern if we have locations that don't 
see much rain this weekend. Temperatures will hover in the 60s and
low 70s for highs as high pressure builds in for next week.
