.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure will remain in control through the weekend, continuing
the dry stretch. The cooler conditions will continue through mid
week, before an abrupt warming trend starts going into the weekend.
Areas of frost are increasingly likely Wednesday Night and Thursday
night, with the coldest conditions occurring Wednesday night.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
As of 207 PM EDT Tuesday...High pressure is building down into the
region out of Quebec, continuing the cold air advection.
Temperatures will drop quickly tonight and most areas should see
them fall into the thirties. The coldest hollows of the Adirondacks
and Northeast Kingdom may see them fall into the upper twenties.
While temperatures will be favorable for frost formation in many
areas, continuing boundary layer flow should prevent it form
occurring at a widespread level. A classic fall day will develop
tomorrow with temperatures climbing into the mid fifties to lower
sixties under clear skies. Remaining boundary layer flow should
lighten tomorrow night, and the radiational cooling conditions will
become much more favorable. Therefore, widespread frost is looking
increasing likely with some freezes in the coldest parts of the
Adirondacks and Vermont. The frost freeze program will end tomorrow
in the Adirondacks and Northeast Kingdom, so no more frost/freeze
headlines will be issued in those locations after tonight. Wind
gusts will again be in the 10 to 20 mph range during the day, with
isolated parts in the Champlain Valley seeing higher gusts. Relative
humidities will drop into the mid thirties to the mid forties, with
lower values in the broad valleys. Therefore, fire weather is a
concern again tomorrow, even though values will not reach critical
thresholds.
&&
.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
As of 207 PM EDT Tuesday...The center of the surface high will begin
to slide off to the east Thursday and Thursday night, initiating a
warming trend. While southerly flow will begin to develop Thursday
night, many protected hollows should remain decoupled, particularly
across eastern Vermont. Therefore patchy frost formation is again
expected in many areas, though not as widespread as Wednesday night.
Winds will be much lighter on Thursday so while relative humidities
will again drop into the 30s for most areas, fire weather concerns
will be lower.
&&
.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
As of 151 PM EDT Tuesday...From Friday onward drier and warmer
weather is expected for the most part. Surface and upper level
ridging will dominate our weather pattern from Friday through
early Monday, but then ridge will begin to break down. On
Tuesday a weak front will drop southward across our area, but at
this time looks like we`ll mainly just see some clouds with
this surface feature. Tuesday night into Wednesday we`ll have a
stronger frontal system cross our area, perhaps bringing our
only chance of precipitation through the next week. Very warm
temperatures are expected from Saturday through Monday with some
80 degree readings possible early next week.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Through 18Z Wednesday...VFR conditions are strongly favored for
most locations through the forecast period. Otherwise,
northerly flow will be increasing with speeds becoming 10-15kts
with some gusts up 25kts for channeled valleys; BTV/PBG were
capped at 20kts, but there could be a few gusts to 25kts in the
18-21Z time frame. Winds decrease after 23Z, but will likely
keep some northerly component through the remainder of the
period. There could be some fog encroaching on SLK/MPV/EFK
tonight after 06Z, but winds remains aloft and could preclude
fog formation.
Outlook...
Wednesday: VFR. NO SIG WX.
Wednesday Night: VFR. Patchy frost.
Thursday: VFR. NO SIG WX.
Thursday Night: VFR. NO SIG WX.
Friday: VFR. NO SIG WX.
Friday Night: VFR. NO SIG WX.
