.DISCUSSION...

Sent an update later this morning to fine tune and update the
forecast, mostly for chance of precipitation based on the latest
and best model agreement blend I could find. A good part of today
and tonight will be characterized by scattered and isolated
chances for a mix of rain and snow showers - in other words, of
the hit-and-miss variety. Some locations may accumulate a few
hundredths while others will see nothing.

PREVIOUS MORNING DISCUSSION:
Another shortwave will drop out of Canada Monday and bring
another round of rain and snow showers over our area. Does not
look like precipitation amounts will be as high as the they were
on Sunday, trace to a tenth of an inch likely with snowfall
amounts less than an inch expected. Temperatures will continue to
stay well below normal with highs only in the 30s and 40s and lows
in the 20s.

Tuesday will see another weak wave drop out of Canada and give us
another slight chance of rain and snow showers, however
precipitation if any will remain very light. Temperatures again
stay below normal with highs only in the 30s and 40s.

During Wednesday and Thursday a quick moving ridge will move
through the area and we dry out and warm up to where we should be
this time of year with highs in the mid 50s to low 60s. Thursday
night our next cold front arrives and brings another shot at rain
and snow showers with highs dropping back into the 40s by Friday.
