 .DISCUSSION...
 Active and colder weather returns for the first couple days of 
 meteorological spring. Still many uncertainties with the models, but 
 chances for wintry weather in the form of snow and some freezing 
 rain from Monday into Tuesday. Some impacts may be possible for the 
 Monday morning and evening commutes. Light snowfall accumulations 
 and some ice accretions up to a couple tenths of an inch are 
 possible.
 
 Remaining wet and unsettled through the balance of the week with a 
 warming trend. Will have to keep watch for water issues later this 
 week with daily rain chances and snow melt.
