weather conditions are likely across the CWA through Saturday thanks

scattered showers/thunderstorms return Sunday. Shower coverage
remains a low confidence forecast, thanks to inconsistent moisture
supply and model inconsistencies. Non-zero precipitation chances
remain in the forecast each afternoon next week.
