 .DISCUSSION...
 While much of the area should remain dry through mid week, isolated 
 showers or storms cannot be completely ruled out, particuarly this 
 afternoon. Building high pressure will bring a steady warming trend, 
 with lowland high temperatures in the mid to upper 90s by midweek. 
 This is likely to bring heat indices into the lower to even mid 100s 
 by Wednesday, and perhaps again on Thursday.
