 .DISCUSSION...
 Straggling showers across the lowlands and some ice across the 
 mountains early this morning. This activity will taper off later 
 this morning as it moves out of the area.
 
 Rounds of rain are then expected for the span of the week. A warming 
 trend kicks off today and goes into the weekend. Will have to 
 monitor for potential flooding later this week given repeated 
 rainfall and snow melt across the mountains.
