ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES CONTINUE THROUGH TOMORROW. A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY IS SLOWLY SAGGING SOUTH THROUGH THE NORTHERN PORTIONS OF
THE CWA THIS AFTERNOON. THE FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO DRIFT SOUTH THIS
EVENING AND SHOULD END UP SOUTH OF THE CWA BY THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.
IT WILL THEN LIFT BACK NORTH THROUGH THE DAY TOMORROW. THE REMAINDER
OF TODAY LOOKS DRIER THAN ORIGINALLY FORECAST WITH DRY AIR
INFILTRATING THE MID LEVELS. SOME REDEVELOPMENT MAY OCCUR LATER
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING BUT UNCERTAINTY IS HIGHER DUE TO THE
MODELS NOT PICKING UP ON THE CURRENT SITUATION VERY WELL. SOME
SHOWERS AND STORMS COULD FORM ALONG AND NORTH OF THE FRONT
TOMORROW. A SMALL PORTION OF THE AREAS INCLUDING OUR NORTHERN
MOST COUNTIES COULD SEE A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WITH THE
MAIN THREAT BEING DAMAGING WINDS.
TOMORROW NIGHT A COLD FRONT COMES THROUGH AND BRINGS COOLER AND
BREEZIER CONDITIONS FOR FRIDAY. DUE TO CLOUD COVER AND A STRONGER
COLD AIR ADVECTION SIGNAL, HAVE LOWERED HIGHS SLIGHTLY FOR FRIDAY.
FRIDAY'S HIGHS LOOK TO BE IN THE UPPER 50S AND LOWER 60S WITH BREEZY
NORTHWEST WINDS WITH GUSTS UP TO 30 MPH (MAINLY FOR NORTHWEST
PORTIONS OF THE AREA WITH LESSER GUSTS ELSEWHERE). SATURDAY HIGHS
LOOK TO BE IN THE 60S BUT SATURDAY NIGHT LOWS COULD BE IN THE 30S
AND COULD BRING A FIRST FROST FOR THE SEASON. SUNDAY THEN KICKS OFF
A WARMING TREND WITH HIGHS COMING BACK UP TO AROUND NORMAL OR EVEN
SLIGHTLY ABOVE BY MIDWEEK.
