.SYNOPSIS...A 29.6 inch trough over Lake Superior this morning

afternoon. This high pressure continues building to 30.2 inches 
as it moves over the central Great Lakes Saturday, and continues 
shifting east toward New England on Sunday. Deepening low pressure
near 29.4 inches emerges out of the High Plains Saturday night, 
moving northeast towards Hudson Bay Sunday into Monday as it
deepens to 29.0 inches. This low extends a 29.6 inch trough over 
Lake Superior Sunday night before weak ridging of 29.9 inches
moves over Lake Superior from the Northern Plains Monday. A low
pressure of at least 29.5 inches looks to move off the Colorado
Rockies into the Northern Plains early next week.
