DISCUSSION
ANOMALOUS HEAT CONTINUES SUNDAY, AND AN EXPANSIVE RIDGE
OF HIGH PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO SUPPRESS PRECIPITATION CHANCES. AS
THIS HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE SHIFTS EAST, MONSOONAL MOISTURE WILL
GRADUAL MOVE INTO THE AREA THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEK. THIS WILL
RESULT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS EACH AFTERNOON THROUGH THE EVENING. ANY STRONGER
ACTIVITY WILL HAVE POTENTIAL TO BRING A PERIOD OF MODERATE TO
HEAVY RAIN, LIGHTNING, AND GUSTY ERRATIC OUTFLOW WINDS. OUTSIDE OF
THESE OUTFLOW WINDS, DAYTIME WIND DIRECTIONS ARE GENERALLY
FAVORED TO REMAIN OUT OF A SOUTHERLY DIRECTION, RELAXING DURING
THE OVERNIGHT HOURS AND BECOMING AT TIMES LIGHT AND VARIABLE TO
DOWN-TERRAIN. WITH THE MONSOONAL PUSH OF MOISTURE AND ASSOCIATED
PRECIPITATION CHANCES, DAYTIME HUMIDITY VALUES AND ESPECIALLY
OVERNIGHT RECOVERIES WILL INCREASE.
