.DISCUSSION...
Mild air streaming northwards ahead of a slow moving cold front will
maintain above normal temperatures through at least Wednesday...but
the more comfortable conditions will be accompanied by the potential
for some showers. The greatest chance will be over the far west late
today with just about all areas having the chance to get some rain
tonight into early Wednesday. Fair dry weather with more seasonable
conditions can be expected for Thursday and Friday.
