.DISCUSSION...LITTLE BIT COMPLICATED TODAY. THERE IS A LEAST A SMALL
CHANCE FOR SOME MID TO LATE MORNING SHOWERS DEVELOPING FROM THE CURRENT
MID CLOUDS IN PLACE...SAY MAYBE AROUND 9 OR 10 AM. PROBABLY WON/T KNOW
UNTIL IT ACTUALLY HAPPENS...AT WHICH TIME YOU MAY HAVE A FEW HUNDREDTHS
OF ACCUMULATION. LOOK FOR MAINLY EASTERLY WINDS AS THE BURN AREA REMAINS
ON THE NORTHERN SIDE OF DEVELOPING WARM FRONT. SKIES SHOULD BE MAINLY
CLOUDY FOR MOST OF THE DAY TODAY WITH MIXING HEIGHTS ONLY SLOWLY RISING.
SLIGHTLY BETTER RISK FOR SOME SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT

WINDS MAY BE SOMEWHAT VARIABLE IN DIRECTION LATE TONIGHT BEFORE TURNING
NORTH/NORTHEAST BY EARLY TUESDAY. WINDS ON TUESDAY WILL LIKELY GET GOING PRETTY
GOOD BY EVENING...WITH A WETTING RAIN MOVING INTO THE AREA. STRONG WINDS LIKELY
WEDNESDAY.
