Similar to Saturday, Sunday will bring spotty showers and storms to parts of the Stateline. Most will remain dry through the early afternoon before scattered showers increase in coverage over the second half of the day. Spotty showers and storms will remain possible into the evening followed by the potential for some areas of fog Sunday night into Monday.

Much of the week will feature isolated to widely scattered showers most days. This means coverage of rain any given day will remain near or below 40%. No single day will be a washout, but intermittent showers and a few storms will remain possible many days. It is plausible even a 20-40% chance for rain could result in no rainfall for a day or two, as that means 60-80% of spots are dry at any given time. But multiple rounds of spotty showers and isolated storms will be possible nearly every day next week.

Highest potential for rain will be Monday through Wednesday, but rainfall coverage will only peak at 40-50% at the most between those three days. Most of the week will only feature 20% coverage of rain, including Sunday.
The exact coverage of showers and storms next week will be determined by the merger of two upper-level waves. This process is called "phasing". How much phasing occurs will determine the strength and placement of the resulting single wave. If this tracks overhead, it could result in continued showers each day throughout the end of next week. If it stays just South, we may end up drier after Tuesday. Either way, temperatures will drop a bit through the week, back to the low and mid-70s for highs by Wednesday.
