Rest of Sunday through Saturday… The ridge will move farther to our east, upper-level southwest flow with increase, and we’ll dry out. There’s a slight chance for an afternoon shower or thunderstorm, mostly over the mountains. I think most of us will be dry.

The 8-14 day period… The weather pattern will get less active with just a slight chance for spotty afternoon showers and thunderstorms. The models hint at a more organized system 18-20 May. Right now it looks pretty wimpy.
The next post will be on Tuesday.
