thursday morning (20jan)>

temps are a bit milder early this morning, thanks to a thin layer of cloud cover overnight.  current satellite pics show a broad area of mixed mid and high cloudiness streaming in from the west and southwest, associated with an upper-level disturbance moving into pakistan.  although there is a good bit of moisture aloft, this system is fairly "moisture starved" at the surface... so i'll be surprised if we get much in the way of significant rain and snow out of this one.  still... starting late this afternoon, and continuing into saturday, be on the lookout for an occasional period of light rain and/or snow.  better chances of snow remain in the higher elevations to our north...

THURSDAY: partly to mostly cloudy skies with a risk of a rain shower by late afternoon.
high: 10C (50F)

THURSDAY NIGHT: mostly cloudy with a few rain/snow showers possible... any snow accumulations should be light.
low: 4C (39F)

FRIDAY: clouds, with a few peeks of sun.  occasional rain and/or snow showers in the area.  no significant snow accumulations expected.
high: 9C (48F)

SATURDAY: chance of a brief rain/snow shower, otherwise partly cloudy and breezy.
high: 9C (48F)

SUNDAY: partly to mostly sunny skies.
high: 10C (50F)

MONDAY: mostly sunny, with near normal january temps.
high: 10C (50F)
