Weather forecast for Kuala Lumpur produced at 7:10 AM Sunday March 5

Kuala Lumpur 7 day weather forecast produced at 7:10 AM Sunday March 5:
Explanatory notes:

Update:Showers and thunderstorms have formed within the forecast area due to low level wind convergence associated with the outflow boundaries associated with offshore showers and thunderstorms in a moist and unstable atmosphere.

Light northeast monsoon conditions persist over the region throughout the forecast period.

During early this week(from Sunday) enhanced risk of showers and thunderstorms as weak background low
level easterly winds the development of sea breezes are likely from 
afternoon to early night.This will lead to sea breeze convergence and/or
anabatic lifting of sea breezes up the Titiwangsa mountain range 
leading to the development of showers and thunderstorms,the models are now generally converging on a steering flow from the northwest during this period.This also means possible showers and thunderstorms during the morning especially over the coastal areas with the development of showers and thunderstorms over the Straits of Melaka due to land breeze convergence.


During the middle of next week drier 
and more stable air from the subtropics penetrates into the 
region,reducing the rain chances to slight to medium chances with the development of sea breeze convergence and/or 
anabatic lifting of sea breezes still expected then along with strong solar heating.The timing of any showers and thunderstorms should be later than earlier during the week as the drier air means that it will take time for the convection inhibition to be overcomed and instability to build up with the strong solar heating.

and "chance of any rain forecasts" are for Kuala Lumpur City Center
