.DISCUSSION...Have seen southwest winds pick up a bit today, but
not as much as originally forecast. With that in mind, there will
be some wind gusts up to 25 mph through the early evening.
Precipitation will increase in coverage this evening, becoming
widespread overnight, with the approach of a storm system. The
associated front will cross the burn during the early to mid
morning, bringing a wind shift to the west or northwest. Snow will
continue through the morning before tapering off in the afternoon
as a drier and more stable airmass moves in. Clearing indices will
be in the vicinity of 500 for Sunday, but as of right now they
look like they will most likely be a bit below that value. Mixing
will be poor Monday, but will improve with the arrival of a more
significant storm Tuesday into Wednesday.
