THE LIGHT SNOW WHICH DEVELOPED OVERNIGHT HAS SINCE ENDED AND PUSHED  
EAST OF THE TERMINALS EARLY THIS MORNING. WHILE ADDITIONAL SCATTERED  
LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER THE MOUNTAINS TODAY, ANY  
DEVELOPMENT WILL GENERALLY STAY AWAY FROM THE TAF SITES. A BRIEF  
LIGHT SNOW SHOWER OR TWO CAN'T BE RULED OUT, BUT DON'T EXPECT ANY  
IMPACTS IF THEY WERE TO MOVE OVERHEAD. VFR CONDITIONS WILL BE IN  
PLACE THIS PERIOD, THOUGH THERE IS A LOW CHANCE FOR A SMALL WINDOW  
OF MVFR CEILINGS AT COS AT THE START OF THE PERIOD. WINDS WILL AGAIN  
BE LIGHT AND DIURNALLY DRIVEN.
