MODELS SHOW A MID/UPR TROUGH MOVING INTO THE WESTERN U.S. LATE THIS
WEEKEND AND CONT TO MOVE EAST ACROSS THE U.S. EARLY NEXT WEEK. THIS
SYSTEM WILL PUSH ANOTHER FRONT SOUTH INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS EARLY
NEXT WEEK... WITH A CHANCE OF SHWRS/TSTMS FOR PARTS OF THE FA WITH
THE FRONT. COOLER AND WET WEATHER MAY OCCUR EARLY TO MIDDLE NEXT
