 .DISCUSSION...
 Unseasonably warm weather continues to finish out the work week, 
 with temperatures feeling more like April than February. Highs 
 through Friday will be in the 60s across the lower elevations.
 
 A low pressure system is likely to bring rain from its warm front 
 today, and then rain showers, even a thunderstorm or two, from its 
 cold front tonight.
 
 Colder and unsettled weather will follow for the weekend, and into 
 the next work week, including the possibility for snow by Sunday. 
 However, while the cold front whips through Friday morning, it will 
 take a second, drier cold front later in the day to start ushering 
 in the colder air.
