THE FA AT 00Z WILL GO HIGHER THAN MAV POPS SOME AREAS AND GO AT
LEAST LIKELY EVERYWHERE. WILL CONTINUE SEVERE WORDING TIL ABOUT 03Z
UNTIL FROPA. AFT MIDNIGHT MOISTURE WILL BE SWEPT TO THE EAST AS
COLDER DRIER AIR FLOWS IN. WILL GO DRY OVERNIGHT. STRONG COLD
ADVECTION APPARENT BEHIND FRONT SO BELIEVE TEMPS WILL GO A LITTLE
COOLER THAN MAV ACROSS NRN FA AND NEAR A MAV/MET BLEND ACROSS SRN
