...SCATTERED PRECIP MAINLY NEAR CA/OR BORDER WED INTO THU...
...COOLER THAN NORMAL TEMPS WILL WARM BY THIS WEEKEND...

.METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS (MON AM - SUN AM)...

General troffing exists along the west coast this morning as the 
s/wv trof from this weekend moving across the Pacific Northwest and 
far northern CA slowly makes its way toward the northern Rockies. As 
this occurs...another disturbance currently over the Gulf of Alaska 
is anticipated to dive down the AK and BC coast before settling over 
northern CA by the middle of the week. This will bring an increased 
chance of showers mainly Wednesday and Thursday to the upper Klamath 
River basin and possibly down toward the Shasta Lake drainage and 
Trinity Alps. Not a lot of moisture entrained into this system...and 
as a result...amounts should be limited to 0.25-inch or less. 

For the end of the week...this slow moving system will pick up its 
forward speed and begin to shift off toward the northeast...reaching 
the northern Rockies by later Friday into Saturday...while high 
pressure over the eastern Pacific begins to build toward the west 
coast. This will bring warmer and drier conditions to the region.
