LAKES. THE SOUTHERLY WINDS AHEAD OF THE STORM SYSTEM WILL ALLOW
FOR A MILDER AIRMASS, WITH VALLEY AREAS REACHING NEAR 60
DEGREES. ALTHOUGH THE DAY WILL START OUT MAINLY SUNNY WITH NO
PRECIP, THERE WILL BE AN INCREASING CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AS THE
DAY GOES ON WITH INCREASING CLOUDS FROM WEST TO EAST. SOUTH TO
SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL BE BREEZY BY MONDAY AFTERNOON, WITH SOME
