.DISCUSSION...
MOISTURE STREAMING NORTH FROM SUSPICIOUS AREA IN LOWER BAY OF CAMPECHE SHOULD 
APPLY A BETTER COVERAGE OF CONVECTION TODAY BUT STRONG DELINEATION OF DRIER AIR
TO OUR NORTH AND WEST STILL LEAVES UNCERTAINTIES WITH POP FORECAST. WILL 
MAINTAIN THE 30 PERCENT NORTH HALF/40 PERCENT SOUTH HALF LAYOUT FOR TODAY THEN 
RETURN TO 20 PERCENT CHANCES EACH OF THE NEXT SEVERAL PERIODS AS BAY OF CAMPECHE
FEATURE MOVES INLAND OVER MEXICO AND MOISTURE DIVERGES OVER OUR AREA AFTER TODAY.
UPPER COL SEEMS TO BECOME PERSISTENT THROUGH THE LATTER PART OF THE WEEK WHICH
TYPICALLY MEANS LOW WEATHER IMPACTS. TEMPERATURES SHOULD ALSO BE ABLE TO 
INCREMENT A DEGREE PER DAY WARMER THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK.
