BE THE MAIN FORECAST CONCERN OVER THE NEXT24 TO 48 HOURS. ETA MOVES

LOCATION OF PRECIPITATION AND HIGH TEMPERATURES. HAVE KEPT POPS 
MOSTLY IN THE NORTH TODAY...SAGGING FURTHER SOUTH TONIGHT. WITH THE 
FRONT TO THE NORTH...HIGHS TODAY WILL BE A COUPLE DEGREES COOLER 
THAN YESTERDAY DUE TO ADDITIONAL CLOUDS.

POP FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS THE BOUNDARY WASHES OUT ACROSS THE AREA.
