Remember that there are burn bans in effect - please don't burn brush or other.
Mild into the weekend then colder next Tuesday or Wednesday - followed by warmer with another storm system. Depending on track - we will have to watch for thunderstorms.
NWS has a slight chance of snow in the forecast for Monday night - behind the next storm system. Low chances - but does give you an indication of the colder air behind the cold front next Monday.
Will monitor - but not expecting too much out of the system.
