 .DISCUSSION...
 The chance for showers returns today, but any activity should remain 
 on the lighter side, although a wetting rain could occur in a few 
 locations. Gusty southwest winds of 20 to 30 mph are expected at 
 times today, but minimum relative humidity values should remain 
 higher than of late, generally between 40 to 50 percent. 
 Unseasonably hot weather will continue across the region through 
 much of this week beginning on Tuesday, with high temperatures 
 reaching the mid to upper 80s, which is nearly 20 degrees warmer 
 than normal for this time of year. Record high temperatures are 
 possible on Wednesday. While isolated showers or storms cannot be 
 completely ruled out on any given day this week, major relief from 
 the dryness is not expected on anything more than an extremely 
 localized basis.
