.SYNOPSIS...The next low pressure system, 29.30 inches, moves
through the central Plains today and is expected to affect the
central Great Lakes through the weekend. The system brings
increasing southeast wind and a pattern of showers and

into the region while supporting a continued thunderstorm threat
Saturday and Saturday night. The associated cold front stalls

another low pressure system moves in from the Plains to wrap up
the weekend.
