.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
No major changes were needed for this update other than to blend
in the latest observations to the going forecast and to update
the aviation forecast.

.KEY MESSAGES...
1. High pressure continues to dominate the weather into next
week. Expect mainly dry conditions and no significant weather
impacts. Chances for rainfall may increase toward the end of
next week.

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1 DESCRIPTION...

Partly cloudy skies will prevail behind a cold front today after
any early morning showers end. Developing upslope flow will
result in mainly cloudy skies across the mountains. High
temperatures will range from the 50s across the north with 60s
further to the south. West-northwest wind gusts may approach 30
mph during the afternoon. Tonight will be cooler with CAA
continuing as overnight lows fall into the 20s and 30s. Dry
conditions are expected this weekend with warming temperatures
Sunday and especially Monday.

Mainly dry conditions are likely to persist through at least the
middle of next week with fluctuating temperatures, although it
will generally be warmer than avg. The next chance for any
meaningful rainfall may come at the end of the week as we
potentially get into a pattern where richer moisture gets pulled
northward ahead of a potentially deep trough.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
Through tonight: VFR conditions early on today with SSW flow of
5-10 kts. W flow will prevail in the wake of a cold front today
with gusts up to 25, perhaps 30 kts. VFR will persist, although
some MVFR CIGS are possible at KHIE and KLEB.

Outlook:

Saturday-Tuesday: VFR conditions expected.
