Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Burlington VT
348 AM EDT Fri Jul 15 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
Surface high pressure will slowly build across the region this 
weekend, and outside a stray shower or storm across southern 
counties Saturday afternoon, mainly dry weather with seasonably 
warm summertime weather is expected. The next chance of more 
widespread, significant rainfall occurs by Monday as low 
pressure advances east from the Great Lakes. Thereafter, muggy 
and warm to hot weather makes a return to the region for the 
middle and later portions of next week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
As of 318 AM EDT Friday...Outstanding mid-summer weather is on 
tap for today as surface high pressure bridges east from the 
Great Lakes. Outside a few passing fair weather clouds, mainly 
sunny skies are expected under light west to northwesterly 
breezes as high temperatures top out from the mid 70s to lower 
80s. Quiet conditions continue tonight with near calm winds and 
nil PoPs. Scattered to broken high level cloudiness currently 
across the upper Midwest/western Ontario will slide into the 
region overnight on mid to upper level northwesterly flow, so 
have gone a few degrees above MOS guidance for minimum 
temperatures offering values in the 50s in the mountains, and 
from 55 to 60 in the broad valleys. 

By Saturday a weak shortwave trough aloft will track across the 
region by the afternoon hours. While most areas should remain dry, 
some of this morning's CAM output, namely the 00Z HRRR and to some 
extent the ARW and HRDPS do show the potential for a few/widely 
scattered showers/isolated storms across our southern counties 
during the afternoon hours. Other solutions are less bullish, and 
they may end up being correct given relatively dry lower levels. 
However, given the variability in this morning's output, I've 
offered a middle of the road solution for now showing a 15-20% 
chance for a few showers/storms during this period, mainly along and 
south of an Adirondacks High Peaks to Montpelier line. Temperatures 
warm slightly from today's values - mainly lower to mid 80s under 
modest humidity levels.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 347 AM EDT Friday...High pressure remains in control Saturday
night and Sunday. Should see fair and quiet wx conditions Saturday
night with near normal mid- July low temperatures in the lower 60s
for the Champlain and St. Lawrence Valleys, and mid-upper 50s
elsewhere across the forecast area. Developing shortwave ridging and
light SW low-level flow will both contribute to very warm and more
humid conditions for Sunday. With 850mb temperatures moderating to
+15C to +17C Sunday afternoon, should see afternoon highs in the
mid-upper 80s in most valley locations, including near 88F at BTV
and MSS. Humidity levels will also be higher than on Saturday, as
2-m dewpoints rise into the lower 60s. While not oppressive, it will
be noticeably more humid. General lack of synoptic
support/subsidence aloft should preclude any convective chances, but
included a slight chance (PoP ~20%) across the higher terrain of
s-central VT and in the Adirondacks during the period afternoon
heating period on Sunday.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 347 AM EDT Friday...Building heat and humidity will be the
primary wx story heading into next week, with the potential for 2-3
days of 90+ degree high temperatures mid week in some valley
locations. Still a ways out, but may ultimately require 
potential heat headlines based on current indications for the 
Wednesday/Thursday time frame.

Leading up to the mid-week period, we'll first be watching a
shortwave trough expected to translate from the Ohio Valley newd
across NY/New England on Monday. This idea is supported by 00Z NWP
operational runs of the ECMWF/Canadian/GFS, with timing differences
the main discrepancy between the models. S-SW low-mid level 
flow in advance of this system will bring a surge of higher 
precipitable water values newd into NY/New England, with PWAT 
values of 1.8-2" possible across the region on Monday per the 
00Z GFS and Canadian. As is typical with high PWAT air masses, 
modest mid-level lapse rates (around 6C/km) are expected. This 
will limit overall instability, but approaching synoptic forcing
and high PWAT values should support widespread showers and some
embedded thunderstorms with the potential for brief/locally 
heavy rainfall. Antecedent soil conditions are relatively dry, 
but we'll continue to monitor this system for localized heavy 
rain potential, with the highest PoPs (50- 60% currently) late 
Monday into Monday night. Should see high temperatures on Monday
83-88F depending on amount of (partial) sunshine in between 
rounds of showers and possible t-storm activity.

Once Monday's mid-level trough passes, low-level 
thermal/theta-e ridging builds back strongly from the SW into 
NY/New England, along with moisture advection likely bringing 
dewpoints well into the 60s, which has been an infrequent 
occurrence so far this summer. Have trended toward the higher 
end of available guidance based on synoptic evolution, with 
highs in the upper 80s on Tuesday, and then potentially into the
low 90s for Wednesday and possibly Thursday (depending on 
timing of next shortwave trough/cold front on day 7/8 timeframe).
Likely looking at heat index values in the mid-90s - especially
on Wednesday - and will need to monitor for possible heat 
headlines as we get closer to the event. Lower chances for 
diurnally driven thunderstorm activity Tue-Wednesday, and then 
potentially more organized/widespread showers and thunderstorms 
Thursday afternoon with next frontal system.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
Through 06Z Saturday...Mainly VFR through the period. Only
exception will be patchy MVFR/IFR vsbys in mist/fog at
KEFK/KMPV/KSLK through about 11Z, most prevalent at KEFK.
Otherwise expecting light winds this morning, trending 
west/northwesterly from 04-08 kts this afternoon (southeasterly 
at KPBG due to lake breezes) with SKC to a few fair wx cumulus 
with bases from 045-060 AGL. After 00Z winds trend light once
again with scattered high clouds, mainly above 200 AGL.

Outlook...

Saturday Night: VFR. Slight chance SHRA, Slight chance TSRA.
Sunday: Mainly VFR, with local MVFR possible. Likely SHRA, Likely
TSRA.
Sunday Night: Mainly VFR, with local MVFR possible. Chance SHRA,
Slight chance TSRA.
Monday: VFR. NO SIG WX.
Monday Night: VFR. NO SIG WX.
Tuesday: VFR. NO SIG WX.
Tuesday Night: VFR. Slight chance SHRA.
Wednesday: VFR. Chance SHRA.
