MONDAY: A new week & an active weather pattern returns. We’re waking up to a few clouds this Monday morning, but showers & storms will develop by the afternoon. Temperatures will climb to the upper 80s. Don’t forget that humidity thanks to that SW wind at 10-15 mph. No widespread severe weather is expected, but some stronger storms will be capable of producing gusty winds and small hail. Also expect heavy downpours at times as we could receive 1-2 inches of rain now through Wednesday morning.
