.DISCUSSION...
A moist airmass accompanied by daily chances for rain
showers and thunderstorms through the end of the work
week will keep any fire weather concerns to a minimum.
Upper level ridging is expected to nudge east by the weekend
which may reduce shower and thunderstorm coverage; however,
isolated to scattered chances are still forecast across
mountain locations, with the aforementioned moist airmass
remaining in place areawide.
