Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Burlington VT
441 AM EDT Sat Mar 31 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
Building high pressure will lead to a quiet day on Saturday with
clear skies and seasonal temperatures. Unsettled weather returns
Saturday evening as a period of rain and snow showers will spread
across the North Country. Gusty winds develop overnight and 
continue into Sunday afternoon. High pressure returns Sunday 
into Monday as temperatures trend below normal. The next 
widespread rain event will move through Tuesday into Wednesday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 434 AM EDT Saturday...High pressure continues to build 
across the North Country as skies are clearing overnight. Temps 
will continue to fall through the evening as we've cleared out 
slightly faster than initially thought. With high pressure over 
the region we'll continue to see clear skies through the
morning and it should be a pleasant day. Temps will warm into 
the upper 40s to low 50s as cloud cover begins to increase 
through the afternoon. Our next chance for snow and or rain 
showers will be this evening into Sunday as a deepening low 
pressure system tracks to our north and west. Moisture and 
forcing indicates widespread precip for northern New York while 
east of Lake Champlain activity will be more scattered.

The larger item of notice will be the strong winds that develop
overnight and continue through mid afternoon Sunday. A strong 
925-850mb low level southwesterly jet of 40-60kts will move over
the region. With steep lapse rates behind a cold front and a 
tight pressure gradient, anticipate gusts of 25 to 35 kts 
developing especially over the open terrain of the Saint 
Lawrence Valley. Wind gusts could approach 40kts and the 
concern is that with moist soil conditions its possible a few 
isolated trees could be downed causing isolated power outages.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
As of 434 AM EDT Saturday...Quiet weather expected Sunday night
into Monday as high pressure builds in behind the departing low
to our northeast. Drier weather is expected during this time 
period along with less wind...but below normal temperatures are 
expected with highs on Monday generally in the upper 30s to mid 
40s.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
As of 434 AM EDT Saturday...Unsettled weather pattern will 
exist through much of the extended forecast period. First in a 
series of low pressure systems moves into the region Tuesday 
into Wednesday with widespread precipitation 
expected...especially Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday 
morning as low tracks across northern New York and up into 
southeast Quebec Province. Could be a little light snow Tuesday 
morning for some areas before everyone gets warm enough for rain
Tuesday afternoon with some snow in the mountains Tuesday night
into Wednesday morning as colder air moves in on the backside 
of the low. Highs on Tuesday will be in the lower to mid 40s 
with lows in the 30s Tuesday night. Timing of departing low on 
Wednesday suggests a noticeable temperature gradient with highs 
in the 30s over northern New York and in the 40s across 
Vermont...but this will likely be in the morning hours with 
falling temperatures in the afternoon. Northwest flow aloft for 
Thursday will keep below normal temperatures over the area with 
highs in the 30s to around 40. Flow aloft turns around to the 
southwest on Friday with highs in the upper 30s to mid 40s...but
another low pressure system moving in later Friday into 
Saturday morning looks to be another scenario of rain or snow 
for the region.

&&

.AVIATION /09Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Through 06Z Sunday...VFR conditions will prevail with clear 
skies through much of the day Saturday. Increasing high and mid 
level clouds will remain VFR through Saturday evening. 
Northwest winds generally less than 6 kts will persist 
overnight, then turn more to the south- southwest after 12z 
Saturday, becoming gusty to around 20kts late in the day. 
Between 03-06z a strong low level jet will move into the Saint 
Lawrence valley and lead to strong gusty winds with gusts as 
high as 40kts at MSS. This will lead to some LLWS and low level 
turbulence over the Saint Lawrence Valley and Adirondacks.

Outlook...

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