KEY MESSAGES

- the warming trend continues with temps above normal Friday.

- The next chance for isolated showers and perhaps a lone thunderstorm looks to be on Thursday afternoon.

- A slightly wetter system arrives Friday night into Saturday with over a tenth of an inch possible in parts of Phillips county.

- Above normal temps with mainly dry conditions expected to return Sunday.

DISCUSSION

WEATHER PATTERN OVERVIEW: With the strong upper low departing south-central Canada, the upper ridge over the Pacific NW will have a greater influence. This will bring a return to warmer conditions with a couple weak disturbances.

The first one will move southeast through Thursday over the SW zones.

The second one is expected to bring more precipitation to the same area Friday night and Saturday.

Temperatures will finally reach above normal levels Friday with highs in the low to mid 70s. Temps will cool Saturday with the abundant clouds, then rebound Sunday with the return of at least partial sunshine.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS:

NBM captured overall trends reasonably well, though confidence is below average on precipitation amounts and placement through the period given the hit or miss nature of convection, especially at later time periods. As HREF guidance and other short term higher resolution data become available, trends should become more clear. TFJ
