 .DISCUSSION...
 It will be chilly tonight, but not quite as cold as last night, and 
 fog should be limited to the deeper, better sheltered valleys in and 
 near the mountains. Dry weather continues Saturday, with a milder 
 afternoon, as high pressure gives way to a return southwest flow.
 
 A cold front brings a small chance for rain and snow showers early 
 Sunday. The colder air behind it brings a cold finish to the 
 weekend, and sets up a precipitation type transition zone with the 
 next system on Monday, with snow north, rain south, and a mix in 
 between.
 
 West of the mountains, warm air surges north Monday afternoon and 
 night, while a classic cold air damming wedge sets up east of the 
 mountains. This spells rain west of the mountains and a potential 
 mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain along and east of the mountains.
 
 The rest of the week brings increasingly mild weather, but with rain 
 at times as various systems cross.
