Looking Ahead
The potential for flash flooding and strong thunderstorms will continue today over the state as an upper disturbance and surface trough remain in place. The threat will begin to diminish tonight through Tuesday as the upper disturbance begins to lift north and away from the state and some drier air begins to fill in from the west. Light east to southeast winds, likely giving way to daytime sea breezes and overnight land breezes, and isolated to scattered showers will remain possible through midweek. A return of unsettled weather will become a possibility once again Thursday through the upcoming weekend as another upper low drops south into the area.
