DISCUSSION
ABOVE-NORMAL TEMPERATURES ARE ANTICIPATED OVER MUCH OF THE NEXT
WEEK, ALONG WITH AN UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN THAT WILL BRING US
PERIODS OF RAIN AND WINTRY PRECIPITATION. WINDS WILL BECOME
GUSTY OUT OF THE SOUTH TO START TODAY, GRADUALLY VEERING TO THE
WEST BY THIS EVENING UPON THE PASSAGE OF A COLD FRONT. ANOTHER
PERIOD OF GUSTY WINDS IS EXPECTED SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT IN THE
WAKE OF A COMPLEX WINTER SYSTEM, THOUGH FUELS WILL BE WET FROM
PRE-EXISTING SNOW PACK AND RECENT PRECIPITATION.
