 .DISCUSSION...
 A cold front will drop through our region overnight with showers and 
 slightly gusty winds. Dry weather then returns Saturday, but it 
 will not as warm as Friday with a low overcast through much of the 
 day.
 
 The chance for showers returns with a warm front moving up from the 
 southwest on Sunday with the better chance rain the farther north you 
 go, and warmer the farther south you go.
 
 A strong cold front then approaches Sunday night and whips through 
 the area early Monday morning, bringing showers with strong wind 
 gusts early, then rain changing briefly to snow as it turns much 
 colder behind the front. There may be another brief shot of snow 
 later in the day with flurries Monday night, and upslope snow 
 showers may persist in the mountains through Monday night.
 
 Winter will be in full control next week, with a reinforcing 
 shot of arctic air to ring in the new year while assuring a 
 prolonged period cold weather, along with another opportunity
 for snow.
