.DISCUSSION...A cold front draped across the area will serve as a
focus for showers and thunderstorms late this afternoon through this
evening. Total precip amounts through tonight will be around 0.10
with perhaps a dusting of snow.

The pattern will remain active through the upcoming weekend.
Wednesday looks to be the warmest day through the remainder of the
week, as temperatures trend roughly 10 degrees warmer and reach the
low to mid 60s while RH falls into the upper teens. Another cold
front is expected to push through the area late Wednesday night or
early Thursday, bringing a small chance of showers along with a
slight cool down. May see another brief warm-up Saturday as
southwesterly winds increase ahead of another front which looks
to arrive Sunday, although confidence is a bit low with respect to
how this weekend scenario will play out. Beyond this weekend, it`s
looking like a warming and drying trend will set up for the first
half of next week and perhaps beyond.
