Service.



.DISCUSSION...Compared to Sunday, low pressure moving inland on 

Monday will shift the region of instability well east of the site,

with isolated afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms 

expected to be limited to near the Cascades, from around Lake of 

the Woods southward to Mt. Shasta. Then, a lesser slight chance 

risk in either much the same area, or farther to the southeast on 

Tuesday. For the site, lingering low level moisture is expected to

produce clouds on Monday with breaks in the afternoon. Low clouds

thicken again Monday night, but they will have much more success 

at diminishing on Tuesday with sunny skies likely by 10 AM. Warm 

and dry conditions will then continue through the rest of the 

week.
