.DISCUSSION...Patchy dense fog has developed in the northeast and
the dense fog is expected to remain patchy. Elsewhere, patchy
light fog is possible this morning and again Thursday morning.
With continued northwest flow aloft the stalled front just to our
northwest will be the focus for rain chances again today. At least
scattered coverage of convection is expected. Temperatures will
be slightly cooler than normal across the northern half of the
area and near normal across the south. Temperatures will warm back
above normal Thursday and Friday. Another cold front will move
through the region Saturday and bring cooler than normal
temperatures Sunday through Tuesday.
