 .DISCUSSION...
 A prolonged period of very dry conditions is expected to take hold 
 across the area this week. Minimum relative humidity most afternoons 
 will generally dip into the 20 to 30 percent range, although pockets 
 of relative humidity in the teens cannot be ruled out, particularly 
 from Tuesday onward. Winds will occasionally become gusty during the 
 afternoon hours area wide, with wind gusts in the teens to 20s not 
 uncommon. 
 
 Although there is the small chance for a light passing shower across 
 the northeastern mountains later today, the next arrival of a 
 wetting rain is uncertain at this time. Light rain is possible with 
 the approach of a front late in the week into the weekend across 
 parts of Southeast Ohio and the Mid Ohio Valley region, but overall, 
 dry weather is anticipated to continue across much of the area, 
 possibly even into next week.
