It appears that gusty winds will be back today and tomorrow.
But it also appears we might (just might) get our first real monsoon storm later this week. Starting Thursday night through Sunday, it is forecast that we'll be getting thunderstorms in Jamestown. The percentages range from 20% to 50%.
We need the water are the area is drought-parched. Also, heavy rains will tamp down the gnats that have been annoying everyone.
