AS OF 630 AM EDT SUNDAY...UPDATED FCST TO MENTION SPRINKLES ACRS
THE EASTERN CPV AND WESTERN SLOPES FOR A COUPLE HOURS THIS MORNING
AND INCREASED CLOUD COVER ACRS MOST OF THE REGION. LATEST RADAR
TRENDS SHOW A RIBBON OF LIGHT RAIN/SPRINKLES ACRS THE EASTERN CPV
AND WESTERN SLOPES ATTM. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD DISSIPATE OVER THE
NEXT 1 TO 2 HOURS WITH CLOUDS SLOWLY DECREASE IN AREAL COVERAGE AS
MIXING OCCURS AND HELPS TO ADVECT DRIER AIR ALOFT TO THE SURFACE.
CLOUDS WL HOLD ON THE LONGEST ACRS THE MTNS OF CENTRAL/NORTHERN
VT...BUT SHOULD CLR BY MIDDAY. ALSO...HAVE NOTED A 29F FOR THE LOW

SUBSIDENCE INVERSION THIS MORNING WITH UPSLOPE FLW. USING THE RAP
SOUNDING ANALYSIS SHOWS LOW CLOUDS BREAKING UP BY 15Z AT BTV AND
BTWN 15Z-17Z ACRS THE NORTHERN DACKS AND PARTS OF THE GREEN

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 405 AM EDT SUNDAY...MID/UPPER LVL RIDGE AND ASSOCIATED SFC HIGH 
PRES IS LOCATED DIRECTLY OVERHEAD TONIGHT INTO MONDAY...RESULTING
IN MAINLY CLR SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS. THIS WL ALLOW FOR TEMPS TO
QUICKLY DROP THIS EVENING...ESPECIALLY IN THE SHELTERED MTN
VALLEYS WITH LOWS RANGING FROM THE U30S DACKS/NEK TO NEAR 50F
CPV/UHI. WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED MID 30S FOR SLK...CRNT MAV FOR SLK

AREAS OF PATCHY FOG...ESPECIALLY CT RIVER VALLEY AND DEEPER

VALLEY. BOTH NAM/GFS SHOW DECAYING 5H VORT AND WEAK TROF
APPROACHING THE SLV AROUND 21Z AND MOVING INTO THE CPV BY 03Z
TUES. THIS SYSTEM WL BE ENCOUNTERING DEEP DRY LAYER ASSOCIATED
WITH RIDGE/SUBSIDENCE ACRS OUR CWA...ALONG WITH LIMITED
INSTABILITY. THINKING A WEAK LINE OF MAINLY RAIN SHOWERS CAN BE
EXPECTED WITH VERY MINOR/LIGHT QPF. WL MENTION SCHC/LOW CHC POPS
BTWN 21Z MONDAY INTO 06Z TUES...BUT NOT EXPECTING A WASHOUT...ONLY
A QUICK SHOWER AND BEST CHC SLV. TEMPS WL BE WARMER ON MONDAY

TUESDAY...WESTERLY FLW ALOFT DEVELOPS WITH ANOTHER EMBEDDED 5H VORT 
MOVING ACRS OUR NORTHERN ZNS BTWN 18Z-00Z. INCREASED LLVL MOISTURE 
WL RESULT IN HIGHER HUMIDITY VALUES AND GREATER INSTABILITY. NAM/GFS 
SHOW CAPE VALUES BTWN 500 AND 1000 J/KG WITH GREATEST VALUES ACRS 
THE NORTHERN SLV ON TUES ALONG WITH LIS BTWN -1C AND -3C. SOME 
INSTABILITY IS AVAILABLE BUT DEEP LAYER MOISTURE IS VERY LIMITED 
ACRS OUR FA ON TUESDAY...RESULTING IN VERY SLIGHT CHCS FOR

AS OF 407 AM EDT SUNDAY...A SHORTWAVE TROUGH IS EXPECTED TO MOVE
THROUGH THE AREA LATER TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY...BRINGING A
CHANCE OF SHOWERS TUESDAY NIGHT AND SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS
DURING THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY. LEANED TOWARDS THE EARLIER TIMING OF
THE ECMWF WITH THIS FEATURE...ALTHOUGH BELIEVE ITS DEPICTION OF
MCS WITH HEAVIER RAINFALL LOOKS OVERDONE. HAVE GONE WITH POPS
ANYWHERE FROM 30 TO 50 PERCENT FOR LATER TUESDAY NIGHT INTO
WEDNESDAY. SOME SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN GFS AND ECMWF FOR
THURSDAY. GFS MAINTAINS WARM AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS OVER THE REGION
     WITH COLD FRONT BRINGING ANOTHER CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS.
ECMWF ON THE OTHER HAND...INDICATES DRIER AND COOLER NORTHWEST
FLOW. STAYED CLOSER TO THE ECMWF SOLUTION...WHICH HAS MAINTAINED
CONSISTENCY WITH THIS SCENARIO OVER PAST SEVERAL MODEL RUNS. BY
FRIDAY...BOTH GFS AND ECMWF INDICATE THAT OUR WEATHER WILL BE
DOMINATED BY CUTOFF LOW OVER EASTERN CANADA...WHICH WILL PROVIDE
THE NORTH COUNTRY WITH A DRY NORTHWEST FLOW OF AIR. AS FOR
TEMPERATURES...THEY WILL BE ABOVE NORMAL WEDNESDAY WITH HIGHS IN
THE LOWER 80S...THEN COOL TO SEASONAL NORMS LATER IN THE WEEK
