Uneventful Dry Week Ahead.

Compared to last week these next two weeks are going to be very calm and dry.
Here is text output of the 18z GFS model from Brian Schmits program.
Note: the high temps are not accurate.
After Sundays cold front comes through Monday and Tuesday look to be dry however a very small system could pass through the area on Wednesday but it will give us very small rainfall totals. After the system on Wednesday models are showing an area of high pressure building up over the area giving us dry weather the rest of the week to put up your Christmas lights.  
The image below shows the 18z GFS model showing high pressure building over the area on Thursday
