This in turn should allow for composite outflow/cold frontal zone to sink sewd into at least northwest portions of the area later Sunday night, providing chances for tstorms that will then extend through mid week timed with active storm track through srn Canada. Hottest temps expected Sat - Mon beneath heart of upper ridge yet temps expected to continue well above normal through the week with reamplification of upper ridge likely again by next weekend. In between, proximity of stalled frontal zone implied across parts of the area supports chance pops tied to the diurnal curve, mainly afternoon and evening. && .AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SUNDAY/...
