 .DISCUSSION...
 A steady warming trend will continue into midweek. There is a chance 
 for isolated showers and perhaps a rumble of thunder on Tuesday, 
 followed by more widespread showers and storms expected on Wednesday 
 as a strong area of low pressure moves through the southern Great 
 Lakes. Strong to severe storms are possible late Wednesday as the 
 cold front associated with that system crosses through the area, 
 with the primary hazard being strong winds.
 
 By Thursday, much cooler conditions, as well as the possibility for 
 snow or a rain snow mix, will take hold across portions of the area, 
 the snow being primarily across the mountains.
