The Florida Peninsula can expect clouds, showers and spotty thunderstorms ahead of the push of cooler air. Snow will fall on part of northern Maine for a time. As moist air settles southeastward, showers of rain and wet snow will extend from around Lake Michigan to lakes Erie and Ontario. Snow showers will extend from the upper Great Lakes to part of the northern Plains. Most areas from the central and southern Plains will be sunny.

A predecessor to the Cen- tral Intelligence Agency, the Office of Strategic Services was formed in 1942 and at one point employed almost 13,000 men and women re- cruited from all branches of the military. Famous mem- bers include actor Sterling Hayden and director John Ford, baseball player Mo Berg, chef Julia Child and future CIA director William Casey. Estimates of how many OSS members are still alive range from a few dozen to 100. Legislation to award the spies the medal had passed the Senate and had more than 300 sponsors in the House, but was held up by HouseRepublicanrulesthat required a special waiver to grant the medal to groups of people. Lawmakers were concerned too many of the medals were being given out and the prestige of the award was waning. After lobbying by some of the spies themselves — many in their 90s — House Majority Leader Kevin Mc- Carthy, R-Calif., this month secured the waiver, which required sign off from all members of Republican leadership. The House passed the legislation Wednesday by voice vote, along with two separate bills granting the medal to Filipino veterans and Merchant Marines in World War II. The legisla- tion granting the Filipino veterans' medal will also head to Obama's desk, while the Merchant Marine legis- lation is awaiting Senate ac- tion. "As we enter into un- charted waters with the in- coming administration, I hope that we will all take pause and heed the lessons of the OSS and remember that America is at its best when we work together with our longstanding al- lies and when we recruit diverse personnel to serve our government," said Rep. Bill Foster, D-Ill. Missouri Sen. Roy Blunt, the bill's Senate sponsor, urged Obama to sign it quickly. "From establishing in- telligence networks deep behind enemy lines to bol- stering resistance organi- zations throughout Europe and Asia, these intelligence officers played a critical role in securing the Allied vic- tory," he said. After years of lobbying, many of the OSS members became frustrated as the bill continued to stall. Hugh Montgomery, 93, of McLean, Va., served in the OSS during World War II and watched from the House visitor's gallery as the chamber debated the bill. Montgomery jumped into Normandy on D-Day with the 82nd Airborne and was among the first Amer- icans to enter the Buchen- wald concentration camp.
