KEY MESSAGES:
1) Warm and dry weather will continue through this weekend.

2) A cold front will approach late Sunday with gusty northwest
winds and scattered showers.

3) Cooler and more seasonable temperatures are expected for much
of next week.


WEATHER PATTERN OVERVIEW:
The warm and dry weather pattern will continue in place across
the region through the upcoming weekend. A cold front is set to
approach late Sunday which will drive gusty northwest winds during
afternoon and evening hours along with scattered showers. After
seeing some locations approaching record highs on Sunday,
temperatures should be around 25 to 30 degrees colder on Monday.

Cooler temperatures that are near or below normal are expected
much of next week following the cold frontal passage.


FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS:
High confidence exists on both the warm weather through the
weekend and the cooler temperatures next week. Medium confidence
exists on shower chances on Sunday afternoon with the cold front
with timing and placement issues needing to be resolved. Will stay
the course and keep the forecast in line with NBM for now which
captures expected trends well.
