The monsoonal weather pattern across the Southwest that's to blame for these muggy conditions has produced yet another Flash Flood Warning in East San Diego County.

The warning was issued by the National Weather Service in San Diego until 7 p.m. The impacted area includes Campo, Boulevard, Pine Valley and Mount Laguna and covers an estimated population of 5,415 people, according to the NWS.

Monday's warning likely won't be the last in our region. The heat and humidity we've come to know in August are expected to stick around.

“This hot pattern is going to stay pretty steady for a while, at least for this week,” NBC 7 Meteorologist Sheena Parveen said.

Along with the humidity will come a continued chance of some wet weather for parts of the county.

“Mountains, deserts, will have an afternoon storm chance,” Parveen said in her forecast. “That’s pretty much going to stick around for most of this week, too.”

Although those areas will have rain chances each day for the rest of the week, that possibility will only bring a bit of inclement weather. Parveen described it as what can be expected to be “isolated and fairly brief” pop-up chances of showers.

San Diego is in for some more unseasonably warm temperatures, so NBC 7’s Lauren Coronado has some tips on how to keep cool.
