TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY: HEAT STRESS CONTINUES TO BE THE PRIMARY
CONCERN GOING THROUGH THE NEXT WEEK. A STOUT UPPER-LEVEL RIDGE OF
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE DESERT SOUTHWEST WILL BREAK DOWN OVER THE
NEXT FEW DAYS AND ALLOW A MORE ZONAL FLOW PATTERN TO DEVELOP OVER
THE NORTHERN CONUS. TO THE SOUTH, A TROPICAL WAVE WILL BRING THE
RETURN OF EASTERLY FLOW AND DEEPER 2+ INCH PWAT AIR TO OUR REGION.
THIS WILL RESULT IN BETTER RAIN CHANCES AND MORE HUMIDITY BY THE
EARLY PARTS OF NEXT WEEK. NWP GUIDANCE CONSENSUS HAS CONSISTENTLY
INDICATED THAT HEAT STRESS WOULD BUILD, AND WITH TODAY'S FORECAST
NEAR 105, WE ARE INTRODUCING A LIMITED THREAT HEAT GRAPHIC FOR
WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA. /NF/EC/

A FEW LIGHT SHRA HAVE MANAGED TO WORK THEIR WAY INTO THE GLH AREA
TONGIHT, BUT THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD DIMINISH AND NOT HAVE MUCH
IMPACT. OTHERWISE, ASIDE FROM A FEW PATCHY AREAS OF FOG
DEVELOPING AND PERSISTING THROUGH EARLY MORNING, VFR CONDITIONS
SHOULD PREVAIL THIS FORECAST PERIOD. ISOLATED AFTERNOON SHRA/TSRA
CAN BE EXPECTED, PARTICULARLY IN THE HBG/PIB AREA. /EC/
