STILL NOTHING TO GET EXCITED ABOUT FOR THE NEXT 8 DAYS.
SHORTWAVE/FRONT TO SWING THROUGH LATE TONIGHT/SATURDAY SHOULD BRING
SOME --SN. FORCING IS VERY WEAK AND MOISTURE LIMITED SO CAN/T SEE
MUCH MORE THAN FLURRIES...IF THAT. SYSTEM FOR SUN/MON LOOKS MORE
INTERESTING. A LITTLE MORE MOISTURE TO WORK WITH COMBINED WITH
STRONG WAA CREATES NICE LIFT OVER CWFA BY LATE SUNDAY/SUNDAY NIGHT.
FIGURE THIS TO BE A HIGH PROBABILITY/LOW AMOUNT EVENT LIKE ALL THE
OTHER EVENTS THIS WINTER SEASON. SNOW WISE...EXPECT AMOUNTS TO BE
AN INCH OR LESS BY MONDAY MORNING.

EXTENDED TO REMAIN FAIRLY QUIET. GOOD PUSH OF RE-ENFORCING ARCTIC
AIR TO ARRIVE MONDAY NIGHT/TUESDAY TO PUSH TEMPS NEAR ZERO WITH WHAT
NEW SNOW COVER WE GET SUNDAY NIGHT. AFTER THAT COLD NORTHWEST FLOW
TO CONTINUE BUT BAROCLINIC ZONE TO BE VERY NEAR BY. THUS EXPECT
PLENTY OF CLOUDS DURING THE EXTENDED HELPING TO KEEP TEMPS DOWN. BY
LATE NEXT WEEK SYSTEM IN THE SOUTHERN STREAM TO PASS CLOSE TO CWFA.
HAVE INCLUDED LOW POPS FOR SOUTHERN THIRD OF CWFA. HOWEVER MOST OF
THE ENERGY IS WELL SOUTH OF CWFA AND WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF PRECIP
MISSES US ENTIRELY.

.DVN...
IA...NONE.
IL...NONE.
MO...NONE.
