THURSDAY...EAST WINDS WILL PREVAIL DURING THE DAY WITH A SLIGHT DECREASE
IN WIND SPEEDS DURING THE DAY. SEASONAL TEMPERATURES WILL PREVAIL AND
MOISTURE LEVELS WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE BUT RAIN IS NOT EXPECTED.

FRIDAY...MOISTURE LEVELS WILL CONTINUE TO DEEPEN AND AN UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE WILL GENERATE SOME RAIN TOWARD AFTERNOON AND LINGER INTO
THE EVENING. EAST WINDS WILL BECOME NORTHEAST ON FRIDAY NIGHT AND
INCREASE TO 10 TO 15 KNOTS.

SATURDAY...DRIER AIR WILL WORK INTO THE REGION ON SATURDAY WITH
NORTHEAST TO EAST WINDS.

SUNDAY...EAST WINDS WILL INCREASE TO 15 TO 20 ON SUNDAY. MOISTURE
LEVELS WILL AGAIN DEEPEN BUT RAIN CHANCES LOOK TO REMAIN LOW.

MONDAY...A STRONG UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL PUSH ACROSS THE REGION
AND GENERATE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ON MONDAY. EAST WINDS WILL
BECOME SOUTHEAST AND INCREASE TO 15 TO 20 KNOTS.

JUST LIKE LAST NIGHT...MODEL CONSENSUS FOR THE SUNDAY/MONDAY PERIOD IS
POOR. ONE MODEL REMAINS AN OUTLIER AND BRINGS THE PRECIPITATION THROUGH
THE AREA ON SUNDAY NIGHT.

TUESDAY...THE RAIN WILL EXIT THE REGION WITH WARM TEMPERATURES. LIGHT
AND VARIABLE WINDS WILL BECOME SOUTHEAST NEAR 10 KNOTS BY EVENING.
