THANKS WFO ALBANY FOR COORDINATION.

ACROSS THE AREA OVERNIGHT...WITH BARELY ENOUGH DYNAMICS TO DEPOSIT
MORE THAN 0.1 INCHES OF RAIN AREA-WIDE.  WILL STILL GO WITH LIKELY
POPS DESPITE LOW QPF...SINCE ALL LOCATIONS SHOULD SEE AT LEAST AN
HOUR OR TWO OF RAIN SHOWERS.

BY 12 UTC FRIDAY...SHORT-TERM MODELS SHOW ADVECTION OF PRECIPITABLE

                        _LSC WEATHER CENTER FORECAST
                         10PM Wednesday May 3, 2000
                     STUDENT METEOROLOGIST: Keith Rivet_
       _** The latest forecast for Northeast & North Central Vermont**
       ** The area bounded by Waterbury, St. Johnsbury, and Newport**_


   _
   Overnight: Mostly clear skies with lows falling into the mid to upper
   30's. Winds will be out of the southwest at less than 10 mph.

   Thursday: Partly to mostly sunny skies and mild, a wonderful day to go
   for a bike ride. Highs will get to near 70 in St. Johnsbury and 68 in
   Lunenburg.

   Thursday Night: Clouds will be on the increase with the possibility of
   a shower or two. Lows will be in the mid to upper 40's.

   Friday: Mostly cloudy to start, with the chance of a shower early in
   the morning. Conditions will improve in the afternoon allowing
   temperatures to once again reach 70. Lows will be in the upper 40's to
   low 50's.

                             Extended Forecast

   Saturday: Partly to mostly sunny skies and even milder with highs
   approaching 80. Lows will be in the low 50's.

   Sunday: Another unseasonably warm day as highs will again get to
   around 80 under mostly sunny skies. A shower is not out of the
   question however. Lows will get down to around 50.

   Monday: Increasing cloudiness with the possibility of some showers.
   Highs will be in the upper 70's with lows in the mid 50's.

                            Forecast Discussion


   Now THIS is more like it!!! With the change of the calendar to May,
   the weather has turned for the better here in the Northeast. High
   pressure is sitting just off the coast of Cape Cod, and the
   circulation around that area of high pressure is pumping in warmer air
   from the south and west. This is likely to continue through the
   beginning of next week as highs through that time will be in the 70's
   to near 80. With that added warmth we have the possibility of some
   showers Thursday night into Friday morning, and on Sunday into Monday.
   But none of these days should be washouts, so make sure you get
   outdoors and enjoy the almost "summerlike" conditions.
