WILL WARM BACK UP.  NARROW NW-SE ORIENTED RAINBAND LINES UP PRETTY
WELL WITH 850-700MB FRONTOGENESIS DEPICTED BY THE RUC ON THE BACK
SIDE OF THE UPPER LOW.  BOTH THE GFS/RUC SHOWING THIS BAND WANING
AROUND 00Z...SO HAVE HIGH CHANCE POPS FOR -SHRA GOING THIS EVENING
OVER MUCH OF THE CWA...WITH LESSER CHANCES OVERNIGHT AS SUBSIDENCE
BEGINS TO SET UP IN THE WAKE OF EXITING UPPER LOW.  HAVE JUST SLIGHT
CHANCE POPS FOR SHRA OVER THE AREA ON MONDAY MORNING AS SHORTWAVE
RIDGE ZIPS THROUGH THE AREA...BUT THEN HAVE CHANCE -SHRA/ISOLD TSRA
OVER CNTRL/NERN MO ON MONDAY AFTERNOON AND CHANCE -SHRA ACROSS
THE ENTIRE CWA ON MONDAY NIGHT. LIKE THE GFS'S SLIGHTLY QUICKER
PROGRESSION OF THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH THAT WILL DROP DOWN ACROSS THE
AREA IN NWLY FLOW ALOFT MONDAY NIGHT BECAUSE IS MATCHES BETTER
WITH THE OTHER GLOBAL MODELS VERSUS THE SLIGHTLY SLOWER NAM.
LARGE SCALE SUBSIDENCE WILL THEN SET IN OVER THE AREA MIDWEEK AS
LONGWAVE RIDGE BUILDS IN FROM THE WEST ALLOWING FOR DRY WEATHER.

TEMPERATURE GUIDANCE IS IN GENERALLY GOOD AGREEMENT THE NEXT FEW
DAYS WITH BELOW AVERAGE TEMPERATURES BECAUSE OF THE CLOUDS AND
RAIN.  TEMPS WILL GET BACK TO NORMAL BY WEDNESDAY ONCE SFC WINDS
TURN S-SWLY BEHIND SFC RIDGE AXIS.

HAVE FOLLOWED THE ECWMF FOR LATE IN THE WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND AS IT
HAS MUCH BETTER RUN TO RUN CONTINUITY THAN THE GFS.  CHANCE OF TSRA
WILL RETURN AS EARLY AS FRIDAY AS UPPER RIDGE AXIS MOVES EWD AND
GULF MOISTURE SURGES NWD IN RESPONSE TIGHTENING PRESSURE GRADIENT
BETWEEN RETREATING HIGH AND SHORTWAVE MID LEVEL TROUGH/SFC COLD
FRONT MOVING EWD OVER THE NRN AND CNTRL PLAINS.  SHORTWAVE WILL PASS
NORTH OF THE AREA EARLY IN THE WEEKEND CAUSING THE FRONT TO BECOME
W-E ORIENTED OVER THE MID MS VALLEY BEFORE IT MOVES BACK NWD IN
RESPONSE TO SECOND SHORTWAVE MOVING ACROSS THE PLAINS.  AS IS
TYPICAL WITH THIS PATTERN...THINK THERE WILL BE SEVERAL CHANCES FOR
RAIN NEXT WEEKEND GIVEN THE PROXIMITY OF THE SFC FRONT...THE
PERIODIC LARGE SCALE ASCENT FROM THE SHORTWAVES...AND THE INCREASED
INSTABILITY. AN EPISODE OR TWO OF SEVERE WEATHER WILL ALSO BE
POSSIBLE GIVEN THE EXPECTED MAGNITUDE OF THE DEEP LAYER SHEAR/
INSTABILITY. HIGHS AROUND 80 SEEM REASONABLE GIVEN EXPECTED 850MB
TEMPS AROUND 15C.
