Heading back to work tomorrow, weather conditions don't actually look too shabby! Conditions should remain dry tonight under partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the mid to upper-60s. With low-level moisture still in place, and light winds, some patchy fog is possible late tonight and into the early morning hours tomorrow.
As for the day, skies will be mostly sunny with temperatures in the mid to upper-80s. Not bad for a Monday! With the next low pressure system approaching from the west, southwesterly flow will ramp up tomorrow afternoon allowing for higher temperatures, higher dew points, and greater instability in the atmosphere. This may all add up to a few isolated showers and thunderstorms late Monday, with an increased chance overnight. Temperatures Monday night will drop into the low 70s.

Tuesday looks to be the rainiest day of the week as that aforementioned front drops into our region. The majority of storms from this system will remain to our north, but showers and thunderstorms (some strong) are likely. The Storm Prediction Center currently has us under a "Marginal" risk for severe weather Tuesday afternoon and evening. This front will stall out over our area, as disturbances ride through and allow for more rain Tuesday night and into Wednesday.
