THE JET STREAM MAINTAINS A ZONAL PATTERN THROUGH THE END OF THE
WEEK WHILE REMAINING ACROSS THE NORTHERN UNITED STATES. A FEW
DISTURBANCES MOVING THROUGH THE PATTERN WILL SEND WEAK COLD FRONTS
INTO OUR CWA THROUGHOUT THE WEEK. THERE WILL BE LITTLE COLD AIR
ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONTS AND WILL NOT EVEN BE ABLE TO GET
TEMPERATURES BACK DOWN TO NORMAL. WE WILL KEEP AN EYE ON
SATURDAY NOT FOR WINTRY WEATHER, BUT FOR THE POTENTIAL FOR RECORD
WARMTH WHEN HIGHS COULD ACTUALLY REACH THE LOW 80S. THERE IS NO
PRECIPITATION EXPECTED THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS.
