.DISCUSSION...A cold front will cross the area this afternoon from
north to south, and may bring a few sprinkles or raindrops in
isolated locations. However, the boundary layer will be well-mixed
and dry, making it difficult for anything to reach the ground. Cool
and dry conditions persist into the weekend before rain chances
increase next week.
