.Synopsis...
Mountain showers and isolated thunderstorms continue through this
evening. Drier weather will then follow with seasonable
temperatures and occasionally breezy winds through the end of the
week. The next weather system then looks to arrive by the weekend,
bringing mountain/foothills thunderstorm chances Saturday,
followed by gusty and drying north winds Sunday into next week.
Resultant elevated fire weather conditions are anticipated Sunday
and Monday throughout the Valley due to the gusty winds and
expected low relative humidity.
