.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday.
SATURDAY...Thunderstorm and High Wind Potential.
SUNDAY...High Wind Potential.

TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...No Hazards.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
Showers and isolated thunderstorms will likely be ongoing Saturday
morning, ending from west to east into the evening as a strong
cold front moves through the region. Gusty winds will also
continue, with a shift from southerly winds to the north and
northwest behind the front. The gusty winds will continue into the
day Sunday. With cold air in place in advance of another storm
system Monday and into Monday night, wintry precipitation remains
in the forecast. Trends in the available data continue to point
toward snow as the most likely wintry precipitation type for areas
north of Interstate 40, with potential for a period of light
freezing rain along and south of the interstate. At this time, any
amounts appear to be light, with a low chance of minor travel
impacts. Although confidence is somewhat increased in this
overall scenario compared to recent days, moderate uncertainty
persists in the details, including specific amounts. Continue to
monitor forecasts through the weekend.
