Models indicate a relatively strong zonal pattern over much of the CONUS for Sun/D4 into Mon/D5, with a shortwave trough skirting the Great Lakes area. Then, through the Thu/D8 period, there is a possibility of a low-amplitude trough amplification within this strong belt of flow, moving across the southern Plains and Southeast. Predictability for this later scenario is low at this time, as there is little run-to-run consistency. However, the air mass over the western
