- Frost/Freeze Next Couple Nights
Canadian surface high builds in tonight with clear skies and light
winds leading to frost/freeze conditions for all of the forecast
area. This should be the coldest night of the week since the sfc
high is moving east Monday night and clouds may be moving in late
in the night but temperatures could still fall below freezing in
the cold spots where winds stay decoupled.
- Rain Chances Tuesday and Late Week
A clipper low moving in the fast northwest flow arrives on Tuesday
with the first widespread rain this month. QPF expected to be
around a quarter inch with some isolated half inch amounts
possible with scattered convection Tuesday evening.
Flow goes more zonal late week and deeper moisture streams up from
the Gulf ahead of a shortwave trough that arrives Friday or
Saturday with showers and scattered convection.
