Florida have diminished somewhat, al
though there is still a probability OF nigh
winds along the coast of the earolinas.

cradle magnitude is moving eastward over
the plateau region, its crest having reached
the middle Rocky mountain region.

IL. Florida and locally in Kansas, Nebraska,
and Washington. Snow is falling in eastern
Wy oming and northeastern Colorado.
1t is warmer in the lower lake region and
