.DISCUSSION...
(This afternoon through next Wednesday)

WEATHER PATTERN OVERVIEW: Upper level ridging and high pressure
continue to be the dominant story this week. Daytime highs
continue to be well above normal, in the 40s and 50s, while
morning lows remain on the chilly side. Light winds and no
precipitation still expected for the duration of the ridge.


FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS: High confidence continues
regarding the ridge and associated high pressure. Low temperatures
overnight were adjusted down from base NBM values using NBM 25%
and observed values from last night as base NBM has been
consistently forecasting too warm, particularly in valley
locations.

.AVIATION...Light winds and VFR conditions continue through the
next 24 hours.
