The storm chances continue into early Tuesday and then again later in the week, including Thursday and Friday as the State Fair gets underway. Hopefully next weekend will be drier. Look for lots of 80s this coming week with lows in the 60s and 70s. Humidity will be higher as well with the milder temps. Typical summertime weather.
