.DISCUSSION...
Somewhat elevated winds are ongoing today. Expect winds to
increase each day as the pressure gradient tightens between high
to the east and approaching frontal system on Sunday. Rain chances
return Sunday morning from the northwest as a frontal system
starts moving into the area. Scattered showers and thunderstorms
are then expected into Monday as the front sags into the area.
