WEATHER SUMMARY FOR THE NORTH CENTRAL UNITED STATES 
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
400 AM CDT MON OCT 17 2005

SHOWERS AND EVEN A FEW THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE OVER PORTIONS OF 
EASTERN MINNESOTA THIS MORNING IN RESPONSE TO AN UPPER LEVEL STORM 
SYSTEM MOVING OVER THE AREA.  ELSEWHERE...A WEAK SURFACE TROF OR 
WIND SHIFT LINE...WILL PROGRESS THROUGH THE TRI STATE AREA TODAY.  
THE ONLY AFFECT FROM THIS TROF WILL BE THE WIND SWITCHING TO THE 
NORTHWEST.  THESE NORTHWEST WINDS WILL ALLOW A LITTLE COOLER AIR TO 
FILTER INTO THE AREA...BUT EVEN WITH THAT...TODAYS HIGH 
TEMPERATURES SHOULD STILL BE WELL ABOVE NORMAL.  

A COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO MOVE THROUGH THE DAKOTAS AND MINNESOTA 
TUESDAY EVENING. THIS WILL CAUSE A FEW SHOWERS TO FORM IN NORTHERN 
MINNESOTA...WHILE OTHER AREAS WILL REMAIN DRY.  THE NEXT CHANCE FOR 
RAIN WILL BE WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY.

HIGH TEMPERATURES TODAY WILL BE IN THE 70S...EXCEPT FOR 60 DEGREE 
READINGS IN NORTHEAST NORTH DAKOTA AND NORTHERN MINNESOTA.  LOWS 
TONIGHT WILL BE IN THE 40S...EXCEPT 30S IN PORTIONS OF NORTH DAKOTA 
AND NORTHERN MINNESOTA.
