.DISCUSSION...

Light winds and patchy morning fog are expected Wednesday morning,
especially in the river valleys. Otherwise, look for temperatures
in the 20s and 30s to start the day.

Upper ridging will gradually progress eastward through the week
helping to maintain mainly dry and seasonable weather conditions.
An upper trough will push through the region on Friday with a cold
front Friday night and Saturday. For now, ensembles keep much of
the precipitation chances off to the south and west of the CWA.

Upper ridging looks to rebound over the weekend. Look for largely
dry weather and warming temperatures under the larger scale
subsidence as high temperatures by Sunday reach into the 50s and
60s.

No major deviations to NBM were used for this forecast cycle.

seasonable weather through the week.
