 A four phase pattern continues to develop across North America as strong height
rises occur between Siberia and Alaska and a strong northern latitude block over
Greenland.  Strong jet from the eastern Pacific trough will move into the Great
Basin and Southwest and develop a strong low which will move into Texas early
Wednesday and lifts northeast into the Ohio Valley dye to the strong ridge off
the Southeast coast.  The ridge will bring Moisture north into the Mississippi
Valley early Thursday and will spread east and increase in intensity.  High
pressure will move over the Northeast tonight with mostly fair and breezy
conditions into Wednesday.  Rain from this system should not arrive until Friday
as moisture overrides warm frontal boundary to the south.  Expected moderate to
heavy rains over the mid-Atlantic Saturday.  Far inland over the mid-Atlantic
cold air damming may result in mixed precipitation.  By Sunday rain moves into
New England as cold front moves off the coast.  Colder and breezy conditions
will follow on Sunday.
