 .DISCUSSION...
 A cold front will drop through our region tonight with showers and 
 breezy winds. Dry weather then returns Saturday amid continuing mild 
 temperatures, but with a low overcast through much of the day.
 
 The threat for showers returns with a warm front moving up from the 
 south on Sunday with the better rain chances the farther north you 
 go and warmer temperatures the farther south you go.
 
 A strong cold front then approaches late Sunday night and passes on 
 Monday, bringing strong winds, thunderstorms, then rain changing to 
 snow and much colder temperatures. Behind this front, winter returns 
 next week with prolonged cold temperatures and at least a couple 
 opportunities for snow.
