CAA OCCURS BEHIND THE FRONT DESPITE THE PASSAGE OF A CLOSED UPPER

NO SENSIBLE WEATHER CONCERNS EXIST THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND AT LEAST
THE FIRST PART OF THE UPCOMING WEEK AS UPPER LEVEL RIDGING KEEPS ANT

THE AREA TUESDAY NIGHT AS THE RIDGE FLATTENS SOMEWHAT. MOISTURE

EVENTUALLY WORKS EAST TO MAINTAIN DRY AND SEASONABLY WARM CONDITIONS
THROUGH AT LEAST FRIDAY. THEREAFTER, A POTENTIALLY MORE ACTIVE
PATTERN BEGINS TO SETUP WITH SEVERAL DISTURBANCES TO OUR WEST
FOR THE NEXT WEEKEND ALONG WITH SIGNS OF INCREASING LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE POSSIBLY MAKING A RETURN. MODELS VARY ON POTENTIAL
IMPACTS TO THE AREA, MOST OF WHICH WOULD BE CONFINED TO NW
