LATE THIS PD IS EXPCD TO MOV TO THE NE OF THE FA...ENDING MUCH OF
THE PCPN THREAT BY THE NXT PD. WENT ON THE COOL SIDE OF MOS TEMPS AS
CLIMO SUGGESTS A 10F TEMP FALL AND STILL FAIRLY LONG MID MARCH
NIGHTS SHUD SUPPORT A STEADY RATE OF FALL DESPITE SLY SFC WNDS.

FOR SATURDAY...WRMFNT WL PUSH THRU THE NERN FA DURG THE MRNG HRS
LEAVING EVERYONE IN THE WRM SECTOR FOR THE AFTN. PWATS FALL
SOMEWHAT...WITH MAIN PCPN THREAT CONFINED TO THE LATE AFTN HRS AND
OVERNIGHT AS LO LVL JET WL AGAIN STRENGTHEN IN ADVANCE OF AN
APPROACHING CDFNT FM THE W. BEST PCPN CHCS WL BE ACRS THE SERN

COMMA HEAD MAY CLIP NRN/NERN SXNS OF THE FA MON NGT...BUT ONLY
LOOKING LIKE SPKLS/FLURRIES.

FOR THE EXTDD PD (MON NGT - FRI)...H500 LONGWAVE TROF...IN A
TRANSITORY STATE...BGNS THE PD OVR THE CNTRL CONUS WHERE THE /GRAND
FINALE/ TO OUR ACTIVE WX PTRN IS IN THE PROCESS OF EXITING. NAM/DGEX
SHOW A MUCH MORE SLY SFC LO TRACK VERSUS THE REST OF THE MED RNG
MDLS (GFS/ECMWF/CMC)...WHICH HV A MUCH MORE NLY AND MORE PROGRESSIVE
TRACK. PREFER THE LATTER...WHERE ONLY A FEW SPKLS OR FLURRIES ARE
EXPCD FOR MON NGT. A MORE QUIET MID LVL PTRN THEN TAKES HOLD...AS
LONGWAVE TROF SLIDES TO THE ERN CONUS FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK WITH
LONGWAVE RDG DOMINATES THE WRN 2/3RDS OF THE CONUS WITH MOSTLY SFC
HI PRES IN CONTROL. ONLY INTERRUPTION TO THIS WL BE DURG WED/WED
NGT...WHERE A WK SHRTWV WL CLIP MAINLY THE NRN/NERN SXNS OF THE FA.
DUE TO THE NWLY MID LVL FLOW PTRN AND DOMINANCE OF CANADIAN HI PRES
EXPCD...LOOK FOR TEMPS AOB NORMAL DURG THIS PD...AND GENERALLY DRY
FOR MOST LOCNS.
