...REMARKS...
Riverkern RAWS was used for the weather.
http://raws.wrh.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/roman/meso_base.cgistnKRNC1timeGMT
This RAWS is very exposed to the winds.  Riverkern tends to be more
sheltered.

Please include a 3 to 5 day outlook.  I am also interested in timing
of the front coming down, wind associated with it, and moisture.
