SHORT-TERM FORECAST
High pressure will temporarily weaken which will allow a cold front into the Northwest later Friday. Cooler weather along with gusty winds and the chance of a few scattered showers are possible as the front moves through, but the bigger story will be the considerably cooler weather. Thereafter, expect more dry weather with some rather chilly overnight lows into early next week.
LONG-TERM FORECAST
Stubborn high presssure will remain the dominating feature in one form or another. One front may produce some scattered rain and mtn snow late Tuesday into Weds, otherwise expect unseasonably dry weather to continue.
General Short-Term Model Agreement: EXCELLENT
General Long-Term Model Agreement: GOOD
