 .DISCUSSION...
 Thunderstorms and showers will continue this afternoon and this 
 evening, as the warm front lifts north through the area today, ahead 
 of a cold front to the west. These thunderstorms could produce 
 strong wind gusts and hail. Localized flooding is possible with any 
 heavy rainfall.
 
 Unseasonably warm weather continues to finish out the work week 
 thanks to the warm front, with temperatures feeling more like April 
 than February. Highs through Friday will be in the 60s across the 
 lower elevations, even as the cold front crosses in the morning.
 
 Colder air will not start to arrive in ernest until a second cold 
 front crosses later on Friday, and cold, unsettled weather will 
 follow for the weekend, and into the next work week, including the 
 possibility for snow by Sunday.
