TEMPS WILL BE NEAR NORMAL WITH NOT MUCH WIND THROUGH THE SHORT TERM. .LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY MEDIUM RANGE MODELS ARE DOING WELL WITH THE CURRENT PATTERN AND WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE ECMWF ARE FAIRLY CONSISTENT WITH EACH OTHER. NO BIG CHANGES IN THINKING FROM THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. MONDAY OPENS WITH AN H5 UPPER LOW DIGGING SOUTH INTO THE SOUTH WEST UNITED STATES WITH AN UPPER RIDGE OVER THIS AREA TILTING NORTHWEST. A SURFACE LOW PRESSURE INVERTED TROUGH IS SETTING UP OVER THE MIDWEST. THERE ARE SEVERAL OLD FRONTAL BOUNDARIES LAYING ACROSS THE REGION. AS THE H5 LOW STARTS TO MOVE EAST THE SURFACE REFLECTIONS WILL LIKELY BE THE FOCUS OF CONVECTION. AS IS USUALLY THE CASE IT IS DIFFICULT TO PREDICT THE PLACEMENT OF THE BAROCLINIC ZONES SO FAR IN ADVANCE. HOWEVER THESE BOUNDARIES WILL FOCUS THE INITIATION OF CONVECTION. FOR THE PRESENT TIME HAVE GONE ALONG WITH NCEP PLACEMENT EXCEPT THAT WILL NOT BRING CONVECTION IN UNTIL TUESDAY AFTERNOON. EXPECT THIS FRONTAL POSITION IS A LITTLE TOO FAR SOUTH.
