Discussion

A cold front heads this way from north of here by later tonight and then it stalls in rather close proximity by later tomorrow. Several waves of low pressure are likely to ride along the nearly stationary frontal boundary zone generating a stretch of unsettled weather around here all the way from later tomorrow into the middle of next week. While there should be plenty of rain-free time during this extended time period, showers will be possible on each day from tomorrow through Wednesday, thunderstorms can mix into the picture, and some of the rain will likely be heavy at times.
