.DISCUSSION...
Continued warm and dry conditions across the area through the
weekend and into next week. Onshore flow returns to the area on
Sunday, prompting increases in daytime/overnight humidity values
in the Sacramento Valley. A non-zero chance (5-10%) of an
afternoon/evening t-storm is in the forecast Monday, with the best
chances remaining south of HWY-50. Confidence remains low on any
precipitation developing at this time.
