 .DISCUSSION...
 A stalled boundary over the area this morning will gradually lift 
 northward as a warm front heading into the afternoon. The chance for 
 showers and a few storms continues today for parts of the Ohio 
 Valley and Appalachian mountains. A strong cold front is slated to 
 move through on Friday, with additional showers, storms, and gusty 
 winds. A mainly dry but chilly weekend is expected in the wake of 
 the frontal passage, with a widespread frost or freeze on Sunday 
 morning.
