GUSTY WINDS WILL CONTINUE TONIGHT AND TOMORROW IN THE WAKE OF A
COLD FRONT AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE REGION. WEAK UPPER-
LEVEL DISTURBANCES WILL CROSS THE REGION WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY
NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

IN MAGNITUDE AS LOW-LVL WIND FIELD WEAKENS MODESTLY. BKN STRATOCU
XPCD TO PERSIST THRU RMNDR OF TDA. SHRTWV TROF OVER MI WILL MOVE
SEWD THRU THIS EVE AND WILL PROVIDE LIFT TO FURTHER ENHANCE CLD
CVR.

WINDS WILL BCM NWLY TNGT AS POTENT COLD AIR ARRIVES...LEADING TO A
VERY FAVORABLE TRAJECTORY FOR UPSLP SNOW ON WRN SLOPES. SYNOPTIC
FORCING FOR ASCENT...COMBINED WITH DP AND INCRG INSTBY AND UPSLP

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
THE REST OF THE WEEK WILL BE CHARACTERIZED BY ALMOST DAILY
SHRTWV TROFS CROSSING THE AREA. EACH OF THESE WAVES WILL BE
WEAKER AS THEY MOVE EASTWARD...MINIMIZING THE EFFECTS FOR THE MID-
ATLC AS THE MAIN UPPER TROUGH GRADUALLY DRIFTS OFF THE COAST. THIS

STEEP LAPSE RATES. TURBULENT BNDRY LYR WILL PERMIT GUSTS IN EXCESS
OF 25 KT AT TERMINALS TDA...WHICH WILL DIMINISH LATE THIS AFTN AND
THIS EVE. HOWEVER...COLD AIR SURGE LATE TNGT WILL INVIGORATE GUSTS
AGAIN BY TUE MRNG.

A FEW SNOW SHWRS MAY DVLP NR KMRB EARLY THIS EVE...BUT FCST DOES
NOT CALL FOR ANY ACCUMULATION. VFR CONDS XPCD THRU TAF PD AS DRY
BNDRY LYR WILL PRECLUDE LOW CIGS AND VSBYS.

GUSTY WINDS WILL SUBSIDE INTO THE EVE/OVERNIGHT HRS. A COUPLE
MORE UPPER-LEVEL TROUGHS /DRY AND BREEZY CONDITIONS/ WILL SWING
ACROSS THE MID-ATLC THRU THE END OF THE WEEK...BUT WINDS WILL BE
MAINLY IN THE 10-20KT RANGE. HIGH PRESSURE WILL SLOWLY BUILD IN
