The blocking high that has brought the wonderful weather this month is going to begin loosening its grip a bit.  That's going to allow for a bit more cloud cover and the possibility of a few showers to return to parts of south central this week.  For the southeast you will continue to see periods of rain and snow showers most of the week.  Western Alaska and the Interior will continue to see dry, sunny conditions the rest of the week.
