   Monday: Mostly Sunny. Highs around 70 with lows around 40.

   Tuesday: Parlty Cloudy. Highs in the low 70's with lows around 40.

                            Forecast Discussion


   I am happy to give a promising forecast for the weekend. As high
   pressure moves in from the upper mid-west United States, sunny skies
   will prevail all the way into early next week. There is not too much
   variation in low temperatures throughout the forecast period since the
   high pressure will be slow to move out of the region. However, there
   will be a gradual increase in high temperatures through the weekend
   and into next week. Not too much else to say about the forecast,
   except take advantage of this wonderful weather and make it a good
   weekend.
