434 AM EDT WED MAR 16 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
DRY WEATHER AND ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE
NORTH COUNTRY TODAY. CONDITIONS WILL CHANGE TONIGHT AS AN UPPER
LEVEL DISTURBANCE CREATES A FAIRLY WIDESPREAD AREA OF RAIN ACROSS
THE AREA TONIGHT...BUT IT WILL BE SHORT LIVED AS MOST OF THE
PRECIPITATION EXITS THE AREA BY THURSDAY MORNING. HOWEVER...THE
PATTERN WILL REMAIN UNSETTLED THURSDAY AND FRIDAY WITH SHOWERS
THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING AND POSSIBLY A RUMBLE OF THUNDER
FOLLOWED BY SNOW SHOWERS ON FRIDAY. COOLER AND DRIER CONDITIONS
MOVE IN FOR THE WEEK AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS DOWN FROM CANADA.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 434 AM EDT WEDNESDAY...OTHER THAN A FEW SHOWERS OVER
NORTHEAST VERMONT EARLY THIS MORNING...RELATIVELY DRY WEATHER IS
EXPECTED DURING THE DAY. CLOUDS AND FOG THIS MORNING WILL GIVE WAY
TO SOME SUNSHINE LATER THIS MORNING AND AFTERNOON...WHICH SHOULD
ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO WARM INTO THE 50S. WELL DEFINED UPPER TROUGH
ACROSS THE UPPER MIDWEST EARLY THIS MORNING WILL MOVE EVER SO
SLOWLY EASTWARD TODAY AND THUS DYNAMIC SUPPORT/PRECIPITATION
CHANCES WILL NOT INCREASE UNTIL TONIGHT.

FOR TONIGHT...BAND OF RAIN ASSOCIATED WITH INCREASING DYNAMIC
SUPPORT WILL MOVE EAST-NORTHEAST ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT. THUS
GOING FORECAST OF LIKELY TO CATEGORICAL PRECIPITATION CHANCES
LOOKS REAL GOOD. SHARP BACK EDGE TO THE PRECIPITATION WILL
EXIST...THUS THE RAIN SHOULD END QUICKLY ACROSS NORTHERN NEW YORK
BY MIDNIGHT AND ACROSS VERMONT DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.
TOTAL RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE 0.20-0.40 INCH
RANGE. WITH ALL THE CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION MOST AREAS WILL SEE
LOW TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 30S TO LOWER 40S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 434 AM EDT WEDNESDAY...WARM AIR ADVECTION CONTINUES ACROSS
OUR FORECAST AREA ON THURSDAY AND MAX TEMPS WILL REACH THE MID 50S
AND DRIER AIR WILL WORK INTO THE NORTH COUNTRY. MODELS SHOW
SHOWALTERS GO NEGATIVE THU AFTERNOON AND SOME MINOR CAPE SO HAVE
CONTINUED WITH PREVIOUS FORECASTERS MENTION OF THUNDER. ON
THURSDAY NIGHT COLD FRONT DROPS SOUTH ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA AND
SHUTS DOWN ANY CHANCE FOR THUNDER WITH RAIN SHOWERS CHANGING TO
SNOW SHOWERS OVERNIGHT WITH TEMPS DROPPING BELOW FREEZING WITH
COLD AIR ADVECTION IN PLACE. CHANCE FOR RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS
CONTINUES ON FRIDAY WITH FRONT DRAPED JUST TO OUR SOUTH FRIDAY
MORNING AND NORTHWEST FLOW IN PLACE. TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY WILL
ACTUALLY BE BELOW SEASONAL NORMALS...TOPPING OUT IN THE LOWER TO
MID 30S.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 434 AM EDT WEDNESDAY...FROM FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THE
WEEKEND SURFACE AND UPPER LEVEL RIDGES WILL BUILD OVER THE AREA
AND COLDER TEMPERATURES WILL RESULT ALONG WITH DRY WEATHER. FRIDAY
NIGHT WILL BE THE COLDEST NIGHT WE HAVE HAD IN A WHILE WITH COLD
AIR ADVECTION CONTINUING AND TEMPS DROPPING INTO THE TEENS ACROSS
THE AREA. TEMPERATURES ON SATURDAY WILL STRUGGLE TO MAKE IT ABOVE
FREEZING AND SATURDAY NIGHT WILL NEARLY BE A REPEAT OF FRIDAY
NIGHT. ON SUNDAY SOME WARM AIR ADVECTION BEGINS AS AN UPPER LEVEL
TROF MOVES TOWARD THE AREA AND REMAINS THROUGH TUESDAY. MODELS
STILL INDICATING COASTAL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL STAY WELL OUT TO
SEA AND NOT IMPACT OUR REGION. FROM SUNDAY ONWARD TEMPERATURES
RETURN TO NEAR SEASONAL NORMALS.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY...WIDESPREAD MVFR/IFR CEILINGS WILL EXIST
THROUGH ABOUT 14Z ALONG WITH SOME FOG THAT WILL TAKE VFR
VISIBILITIES DOWN INTO THE MVFR/IFR CATEGORIES AS WELL. VFR
CEILINGS/VISIBILITIES ARE EXPECTED BETWEEN 14Z AND 23Z BEFORE AN
AREA OF RAIN MOVES FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST ACROSS THE AREA
BETWEEN 23Z AND THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD. LOOK FOR CEILINGS AND
VISIBILITIES TO LOWER BACK INTO THE MVFR AND IFR CATEGORIES DURING
THIS TIME PERIOD. LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS WILL EXIST THROUGH AT
LEAST 12Z BEFORE BECOMING NORTH AND NORTHEAST FOR THE REMAINDER OF
THE PERIOD. WINDS SHOULD GENERALLY BE 10 KNOTS OR LESS...BUT GUSTS
