 .DISCUSSION...
 A big warm-up is on the way for the beginning of the week. After a 
 long period of bitter cold, temperatures will climb into the 50s on 
 Tuesday afternoon across much of the area after one more chilly 
 night tonight, albeit much warmer than last night. This will cause a 
 lot of our remaining snow and river ice to melt away across the 
 lower elevations. While we aren't expecting major flooding, we will 
 be watching for ice jams on local rivers. A weak cold front will 
 bring some light rain showers Tuesday evening, which will turn into 
 a few snow flakes by Wednesday morning. Any snow accumulation will 
 be very light and mostly in the mountains. The middle of the week 
 will be dry and cooler. We are watching another stronger storm that 
 could bring a mix of lower elevation rain and higher elevation snow 
 this weekend.
