near gale force are possible during this time frame, though 
whether or not they will be widespread enough to warrant headlines
remains uncertain. trends will continue to be monitored through 
the end of this week. scattered showers and storms will accompany 
the approaching/passing front, with widespread severe weather not 
currently anticipated.
