.DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms are possible each day through the
forecast period. Areas most likely to see thunderstorm activity
include Mohave County and the southern Great Basin. Hot
temperatures will continue through the next week. Even with
monsoon moisture in place, this will allow for minimum RH values
of 10-20% across the lower and mid elevations. Light ambient winds
will prevail, however strong and gusty winds will be found
wherever there is thunderstorm activity.


Note:   Thunderstorms imply gusty and erratic winds.
