STILL LOOKS INTERESTING FOR LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING.

NOW LOOKS LIKE BEST CHANCE FOR THE STRONGEST STORMS WILL BE ALONG
LINE THAT FORMS...OR EVOLVES OUT OF SEVERAL THIN LINES NOW FORMING
RIGHT ALONG THE FRONT.  LINE WILL GET OUT AHEAD OF FRONT A
LITTLE...AND CROSS WV...STRADDLING THE 0Z HOUR...WITH BEST
INSTABILITY SOUTHERN HALF OF CWA ALTHOUGH BEST DYNAMICS/UPPER
COOLING IS ACROSS THE NORTH.  MESO ETA STILL SHOWS INTERESTING BOW
PATTERN IN MOISTURE AND LIFT FIELDS ACROSS SOUTHERN HALF AT 0Z.

WILL MASSAGE THUNDERSTORM EARLY WORDING...POSSIBLY STRONG EASTERN
SECTIONS...OUT OF SHOTGUN...BASED ON RADAR AND OTHER DIAGNOSTIC
TRENDS.

OTHERWISE WILL KEEP CHANCE POPS FOR SHOWERS GOING OVERNIGHT WITH
AMPLE POST FRONTAL MOISTURE INDICATED.  WILL ADD CHANCE POPS FOR
SHOWERS SUNDAY FOR NORTHERN MOUNTAINS AT LEAST...GIVEN LOW LEVEL
CONVERGENT CYCLONIC UPSLOPE FLOW AND LINGERING MOISTURE.

SHORT BREAK ASSOCIATED WITH NARROW DEFORMATION ZONE SUNDAY EVENING.
WILL BITE ON MESO ETA/AVN TIMING ON WARM FRONT AND INTRODUCE CHANCE
POPS SOUTHWEST BY MONDAY MORNING.  THESE MODELS ALSO AGREE ON WARM
ADVECTION PRECIPITATION FALLING APART DURING THE DAY ON MONDAY AS
THE FRONT PUSHES THROUGH.  WITH JUST CHANCE POPS...DESTABILIZATION
ASSOCIATED WITH WARM FRONT PUSHING THROUGH...AND TIME OF YEAR...WILL
OPT TO CALL IT SHOWERS RATHER THAN RAIN.

WILL CARRY THIS IDEA INTO MONDAY NIGHT...ALTHOUGH COULD NOT RULE OUT
A THUNDERSTORM AS WELL BY THEN.  WILL HAVE THUNDERSTORMS IN FORECAST
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY WITH FRONT STALLED CLOSE BY AND SOUPY AIR MASS
ON ITS SOUTH SIDE.  WILL DEFINITELY NEED TO WATCH RAINFALL AMOUNTS
WITH THIS...WITH MOST POTENTIAL FOR PROBLEMS WEDNESDAY AS SHORT WAVE
APPROACHES.

NUMBERS:  CLOSE TONIGHT AND SUNDAY...AT OR BELOW SUNDAY NIGHT...AND
BETWEEN WIDE RANGE ON MONDAY...WHICH AGREES WITH ONGOING PACKAGE.
POPS:  CLOSER TO FWC/S.
