DISCUSSION
KEY MESSAGE 1...
Surface high pressure will build into the region today, however with an upper level trough still overhead, diurnal showers will be possible this afternoon. Tonight will be mostly clear and cool with some valley fog. Overnight low temperatures will drop into the 40s.
High temperatures today and Saturday will be mainly in the mid and upper 70s. Sunday is expected to trend warmer as the flow becomes more westerly with highs in the upper 70s and lower 80s.
KEY MESSAGE 2...
A zonal flow pattern sets up next week with several weak waves pushing across the region. A surface frontal boundary dips south out of Canada on Monday and may stall out across New York. This could lead to multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms through the middle of next week and several shortwaves push through the zonal flow pattern. High temperatures early next week will mainly in the upper 70s and low 80s.
AVIATION /06Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/
Rain showers and thunderstorms are dissipating early this morning with clouds starting to clear. Fog will develop quickly in the valleys and eventually spreading up to the higher elevations. All terminals will likely see some restrictions from fog, with ITH, BGM, and ELM with the best chance at LIFR. SYR and RME have the lower confidence of IFR fog but still added a tempo just in case. AVP may be more delayed with clouds lingering but with heavier rain around the Wyoming valley this past evening, fog will develop there as soon as the clouds clear.
Tomorrow is looking VFR after the fog mixes out between 12Z and 14Z.
Outlook...
Saturday through Sunday...Mainly VFR.
Monday through Tuesday... Scattered showers and thunderstorms possible with associated restrictions, especially each afternoon.
BGM WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES
PA...None. NY...None.
