.DISCUSSION...
Monsoon moisture over the region will trigger another round of 
scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms.  Storms will be 
capable of producing heavy rainfall and flash flooding will be 
possible on the burn scar if a stronger storm impacts the area.  
Light winds in the morning will become gusty from the northwest 
in the afternoon with winds becoming more erratic in speed and 
direction in and near showers and thunderstorms. The monsoon 
plume will keep elevated thunderstorm chances over the area 
through Tuesday, then drier air will bring a downward trend 
to thunderstorm chances each afternoon and evening through the 
remainder of the week into next weekend.
