.DISCUSSION... 
No fire weather concerns for the remainder of the week. 
Weather is expected to remain unsettled. 

A strong cold front will pass across the region Wednesday
afternoon, bringing wind, and triggering another round of snow 
showers that will mainly impact the mountains, particularly the 
higher mountains from southeast West Virginia through the High 
Country of North Carolina. Another disturbance has the potential
to bring a mixture of mountain rain and snow on Friday, 
followed by a strong cold front during the coming weekend.
