 .DISCUSSION...
 Additional showers and thunderstorms will move across the region 
 this evening along a cold front. Heavy rainfall could lead to more 
 flash flooding and gusty winds could cause trees rooted in saturated 
 soils to fall. Fog and very low clouds develop late tonight into 
 Tuesday morning behind the departing cold front. Dry weather returns 
 Tuesday and Wednesday before another storm system brings a renewed 
 chance for heavy rain on Thursday.
