Temperatures may slightly increase Monday, the NWS projected.
Some monsoonal moisture was expected to re-enter the region on Monday with a “slight” chance of scattered thunderstorms and dry lightning in the mountains and deserts, the NWS said.
This was a little earlier this afternoon–nearest thunderstorms were 50-55 miles south of the US-Mexico border. Towering cumulus tried to develop into t-storms closer to the border but couldn’t quite make it. There is a slight chance of t-storms over the SoCal mountains Monday. pic.twitter.com/Z1JkJdQ4rh
