DISCUSSION

KEY MESSAGE 1...

Today will be another warm day, with highs in the upper 60s to lower 70s for most of the area. Even with mostly cloudy conditions and rain showers ahead of an approaching cold front, temperatures remain warm.

KEY MESSAGE 2...

The aforementioned cold front will move through the region on today, with widespread rain showers this morning and then drying out later this afternoon.

Most of the area should stay dry Friday, with possibly showers continuing across the Poconos and southern Catskills as a wave of low pressure tracks along the Mid Atlantic Coast. Shower potential will increase again Saturday morning from west to east, as the upper level low tracks into the area and slowly pushes through, with isolated to scattered showers lingering until Sunday morning.

Another trough dropping southeast out of Canada will bring another chance for showers late Sunday night into Monday, with lake enhancement adding to the shower potential.

AVIATION /06Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/

Scattered showers moving in overnight should lead to the formation of restrictions toward sunrise that last through most of the morning hours. General improvement to VFR in the afternoon. Spotty LLWS mention continues in TAFS in locations where gusts decrease for the overnight period.

Outlook...

Friday... Mainly VFR.

Friday night and Saturday...Showers may bring occasional restrictions.

Sunday and Monday...Mainly VFR though lingering showers also possible.
