Monday...Increasing clouds. Areas of fog and patchy frost in the morning. Highs 68 to 73. Southwest winds 5 to 10 mph.

Tuesday...Cloudy with a 50 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Highs 67 to 72. South winds 5 to 10 mph.

Wednesday...Partly sunny with a 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Highs 65 to 70.

Thursday...Mostly cloudy with a 40 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Highs 70 to 75. Lows 50 to 55.

Friday...Mostly cloudy with a 40 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Highs 70 to 75. Lows 50 to 55.

Saturday...Cloudy with a 40 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Lows 50 to 55. Highs 70 to 75.

Sunday...Mostly cloudy with a 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms. Highs 70 to 75

Stay off the water if lightning is in the forecast and...

1.  Organize your baits.

2.  Watch DVDs on bass fishing.

3.  Read books and magazines on bass fishing.

4.  Re-spool all reels.

We want you around for many more years and not fishing in bad weather will help our wish to come true.  ;)

Hit the water, it doesn't get any better than fishing in the rain. Of course if it's lightning then stay inside.

Sounds like a great week to be fishing. Mild temps, a little rain, low light conditions-it's all good. Chatterbaits and spinnerbaits, frogs, buzzbaits and other noisy topwater baits would be my first choices. If you get a lot of rain, it might cool and muddy the water, slowing things down. Jigs/plastics tight to cover, or worked on deep structure would then be my choice. Enjoy. 8-)

As the other guys have said: Stay off the water during the storms. I haven't always followed this advice. I may not be any smarter than I used to be, but I am more careful. :)

Meh, they say it's going to storm here in PA about every day and it usually doesn't. As long as there is no lightning, I'd go fishing. My favorite time to fish is right before it starts raining and if your lucky, right after (if there is a fog or mist coming off the water).

If it's a cold rain, downsize and slowdown.

Stable weather is not necessarily blue bird skies, it is in your case chance of t-storms 6 days in a row.

Ideally for me would be Wednesday/Thursday or Thursday/Friday ;)

I'd kill for high of 75 and overcast days. It'll be 90 during our tourney Saturday with 100% humidity. I say go for it.
