COLD FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH ACROSS THE STATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING. STRONG WIND GUSTS REMAIN ALONG AND BEHIND THIS
FRONT. THUS WILL LET THE WIND ADVISORY REMAIN AS IS. GUSTY WINDS
MAY LINGER INTO THIS EVENING, HOWEVER, WITH THE EARLIER SUNSET,
PEAK MIXING SHOULD BE BEFORE THE WIND ADVISORY IS SLATED TO
EXPECTED. THUS WILL LET LATER SHIFTS DECIDE IF ANY TIME
EXTENSION IS NEEDED FOR THE CURRENT WIND ADVISORY. OTHERWISE,
ABUNDANT CLOUD COVER WILL BE FOUND THROUGH THIS EVENING THEN
CLEAR OUT BEHIND THE FRONT TONIGHT. A FEW SPRINKLES ARE STILL
FORECAST WITH THIS CLOUD COVER ESPECIALLY IN THE LOWER CLOUDS
ACROSS THE NORTH AND EAST. MAINLY CLEAR SKIES WITH DIMINISHED
WINDS ARE THEN EXPECTED TONIGHT. LOOK FOR LOWS IN THE MID 20S TO
MID 30S.
FLAT RIDGING THEN LOOKS TO KEEP MAINLY DRY NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT
EARLY TO MID WEEK. THE RESULT WILL BE NEAR TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE
SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES THROUGH MID WEEK WITH HIGHS IN THE MID
40S TO MID 50S, AND LOWS IN THE 20S TO LOWER 30S. WINDS MAY
REMAIN SOMEWHAT BREEZY ON MONDAY, THEN BECOME LIGHTER THROUGH
MID WEEK. DRY CONDITIONS ARE CURRENTLY IN THE FORECAST FROM THE
NBM. WEAK WAVES IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW COULD BRING AN ISOLATED
SHOWER AT TIMES, ALTHOUGH CONFIDENCE IS TOO LOW TO ADD IN POPS
AT THIS TIME.
WEAK RIDGING FOLLOWED BY SOUTHWEST FLOW COULD BRING SOME WARMING
TEMPERATURES MID TO LATE WEEK. LATER IN THE WEEK INTO NEXT
WEEKEND CLUSTERS HINT A WEAK TROUGH PATTERN MAY RETURN TO THE
AREA. TEMPERATURES SPREADS STILL SHOWING NEAR TO ABOVE AVERAGE
TEMPERATURES LOOK TO REMAIN THOUGH. WITH THIS TROUGH PATTERN
COULD RETURN CHANCES FOR RAIN AND PERHAPS LIGHT SNOW DEPENDING
ON WAVE TIMING. SOME BREEZY WINDS MAY ALSO RETURN WITH THIS
PATTERN, WITH THE ECMWF EFI VALUES HINTING AND WINDY DAYS ON
THURSDAY AND AGAIN SATURDAY.
