.DISCUSSION...
A warm front will bring showers to parts of the area today, with
thunderstorms also possible, although they should be rather isolated
in nature.
Warmer temperatures will also take hold across the area today and
Tuesday, as warm southwesterly flow increases out ahead of an
approaching front. This, along with several waves of low pressure,
will provide a soaking rain to the region Tuesday night through
Thursday.
Drier conditions look to briefly take hold for much of Friday, but
additional disturbances are expected over the weekend.
