Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Burlington VT
356 AM EDT Mon Apr 3 2023

.SYNOPSIS...
A clipper system will bring scattered shower activity this 
afternoon with a cold front washing out over the area. Mild 
weather is expected both today and tomorrow. Some sprinkles or
light drizzle will be possible as the remnant frontal boundary
staggers back to the north into Tuesday night and Wednesday
morning. Some light sleet or freezing rain will be possible
along the international border before temperatures warm above
freezing mid to late morning. Scattered showers will remain
possible until a stronger cold front shifts south and east
Thursday. Somewhat cooler conditions with dry high pressure 
will start off the upcoming weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
As of 353 AM EDT Monday...A clipper system is poised to run eastwards
across the Great Lakes region north through Montreal this evening.
The warm front is about half way across Lake Ontario at the moment,
and the reflectivity that passed over Toronto did not reach the
ground. The result should be largely the same as the warm front
advances over northern New York and Vermont, with a lot of virga due
to low-level dry air. The warm front shifts northeast mid to late
morning, and southerly flow and partly cloudy skies should warm us
into the upper 40s to mid 50s. It will be breezy with south winds 15
to 20 mph, gusting to 30 at times. Northern slopes of the Dacks
could experience some gusts to 40 mph. Late evening, the clipper
will pull away and northerly flow on the backside will drive a cold
front southwards. Again, dry air will likely inhibit widespread
precipitation from reaching the ground, though the odds are a bit
better with the cold front.

This front will slowly descend south overnight, where moisture
profiles are a bit better. Rain across central Vermont and the
Adirondacks with snow at higher peaks will gradually taper off as
the front washes out. Abundant clouds and little cold advection will
likely keep overnight lows in the 30s. Then for Tuesday, a thin
strip of moisture will linger across central New York and southern
Vermont, waffling north later in the day near the washed out remnant
front. Without significant forcing, this will likely just produce
very light rain or drizzle. At this time, the feature appears to
stay south of the area, but have a fairly large swath of slight
chance PoPs in case it ends up positioned further north. High
temperatures somewhat cooler in the abundant clouds, with mid 40s to
near 50.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
As of 353 AM EDT Monday...Light freezing rain potential is the main
forecast challenge for Tuesday night. As stationary boundary across
the southern tier of NY returns northward as a warm front Tuesday
night, concern is the presence of shallow, subfreezing air across
our northern areas, courtesy of light N-NE winds and strong high
pressure across southern Quebec. As warm front lifts northward,
isentropic ascent results in development of overcast skies and light
precipitation, especially after midnight. At present, appears most
likely areas for subfreezing temperatures (30-32F) will be across
the St. Lawrence Valley and along the Intl border across northern
VT. In these locations, some light freezing rain accumulation is
possible during the pre-dawn hours Wednesday with potential for
localized icy travel conditions. Will continue to monitor, but
currently up to 0.1" ice accumulation is possible in the St.
Lawrence Valley, with a few hundreths of an inch possible elsewhere
across northern areas of the forecast area. We have included mention
of this in the morning Hazardous Weather Outlook.

Heading into Wednesday, should see temperatures continue to warm as
warm front lifts across the North Country and into southern Quebec
by late afternoon/early evening. May see cooler conditions in the
low-mid 40s east of the Green Mtns. However, developing S-SE winds
and WAA should allow temperatures to climb into the lower 50s
Wednesday afternoon across the Champlain Valley, and into the 55-60F
range for the Adirondacks and St. Lawrence Valley. Periods of
additional warm frontal rainfall are likely, generally accumulating
in the 0.25 - 0.50" range. PoPs of 70-90% are forecast, highest
across northern sections. Winds may become moderately strong in the
afternoon with southerly gradient flow. Have included south winds 15-
25 mph with gusts to 35 mph. If steeper low-level lapse rates and
warmer temperatures materialize, may see somewhat stronger winds
with better downward mixing, especially with channeling in the
Champlain Valley.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 353 AM EDT Monday...North Country will be in the warm sector of
deep low pressure system expected to be tracking newd across
northern Ontario Wednesday night. Continued S-SW winds should keep
Wednesday night lows in the mid 40s in most locations, except upper
30s to lower 40s east of the Green Mountains. Should see one more
period of rain shower activity as trailing cold front arrives late
Wednesday night into Thursday morning. Cold front gradually clears
the region later Thursday, with gradual clearing taking place during
Thursday night. Highs on Thursday will generally be in the upper 50s
across nrn NY, and low- mid 60s across VT. However, these highs will
generally be reached early in the day before onset of low-level CAA
in the wake of the cold front. Low-level CAA and gusty NW winds
continue Thursday night into Friday. With 850mb temperatures falling
to -9C to -11C on Friday, should see daytime temperatures below
seasonal levels, and generally in the low-mid 40s for highs. Strong
high pressure across the Great Lakes Friday afternoon will build
eastward, bringing cool, mostly clear and dry conditions Friday
night and into the upcoming weekend. Should see widespread lows in
the 20s Friday night, and upper teens in the Adirondacks and
Northeast Kingdom. Highs on Saturday will only be in the mid 40s to
near 50. Better modification of the air mass is expected Sunday with
highs 55-60F.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Through 06Z Tuesday...Mainly VFR conditions are expected the
next 24 hours. High clouds are expanding over the area, with
calm to light south or southeast winds at present. A warm front
shifts east between 09z and 13z, but will largely be virga.
Still, ceilings should fall as it passed to 3500-5000 ft agl. 
Behind the warm front, south winds will increase towards 9 to 15
knots sustained with gusts 16 to 25 knots through about 21z. A 
cold front will slide south about 20z, but again, likely virga 
due to dry air. Odds of activity reaching the ground look best 
at KEFK and KRUT. After 21z, winds will become southwesterly and
gradually fall to 4 to 8 knots. By 03z, showers will be limited
mostly to KRUT and perhaps KMPV. Periods of LLWS are possible 
after the warm front from 13z through 06z Tuesday, though it 
seems sporadic and not widespread, with explicit mentions where 
confidence is highest at KSLK and KMSS. Conditions near the 
surface may still be somewhat turbulent over the region either 
way through 06z Tuesday.

Outlook...

Tuesday: VFR. Slight chance SHRA.
Tuesday Night: Mainly VFR, with local MVFR possible. Chance SHRA,
Chance SHSN.
Wednesday: Mainly MVFR, with areas VFR possible. Definite SHRA.
Wednesday Night: Mainly VFR, with local IFR possible. Likely
SHRA.
Thursday: Mainly VFR, with areas MVFR possible. Windy with gusts
to 30 kt. Chance SHRA.
Thursday Night: VFR. NO SIG WX.
Friday: VFR. Windy with gusts to 30 kt. NO SIG WX.
