 .DISCUSSION...
 Dry and pleasant conditions are expected area-wide through the 
 balance of the work week, as high pressure remains large and in 
 charge. There will be early morning valley fog, but also 
 progressively warmer afternoons, as an upper-level ridge crosses.
 
 This sets us up with a warm start to the weekend, but showers are 
 likely, and thunderstorms possible by late Saturday, as the next 
 system approaches, and then drifts southward through the area 
 through Sunday.
 
 There is not likely to be a clean cold frontal passage with this 
 system. Instead, a more summer-like pattern is likely to unfold 
 during the next work week, with weak small disturbances embedded 
 within broader upper-level ridging.
