TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY POPS ARE BACK TO NEAR CLIMO...ALTHOUGH I SEE LITTLE CHANGE IN THE PATTERN...PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES STILL AROUND 2 INCHES...BUT THE H5 TROUGH WILL BE A BIT MORE TO THE NORTHEAST...BEFORE IT TURNS THE CORNER AND COMES BACK WEST LATER IN THE WEEK. .LONG TERM...TYPICAL SUMMER WEATHER IN STORE FOR THE EXTENDED RANGE FORECAST.
