THIS WILL GIVE THE OWENS VALLEY DAYTIME TEMPERATURES AROUND 100 THROUGH THE WEEK AND MAMMOTH THE LOW 80S FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THE HIGH COUNTRY MIGHT GET A SLIGHT COOL DOWN ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AS SOME MID LEVEL MOISTURE MAY SNEAK UP FROM SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, RESULTING IN A SLIGHT CHANCE OF ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS. ON SUNDAY AND MONDAY, A WEAK SHORTWAVE WILL WORK ITS WAY ACROSS NORTHERN CALIFORNIA AND BRING ANOTHER CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS TO THE UPPER ELEVATIONS, PARTICULARLY IN MONO COUNTY.
