.DISCUSSION...An upper low will pass south of the state today and
be located just east of the state on Sunday. The burn site will
reside on the northern periphery of this low`s influence, and
as such isolated showers and thunderstorms will develop off the
terrain both afternoons. By Monday, a grazing system cruising
through the Northern Rockies will bring another chance of isolated
afternoon showers and thunderstorms, and these will linger into
Tuesday as well. It does appear that a warming and drying trend
will attempt to emerge by the middle of next week. Clearing
indicies appear favorable all week.
