AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BURLINGTON VT
1100 AM EDT SUN APR 23 2006

.SHORT TERM /REST OF TODAY/...
COMPOSITE RADAR LOOP SHOWING RAIN COVERING MOST OF THE FORECAST
AREA AT THIS TIME. PREVIOUS FORECAST HAS THIS COVERED WELL.
HAVE RECEIVED SOME REPORTS OF HIGHER WIND GUSTS OVER THE GREEN
MOUNTAINS THIS MORNING. HAVE ALREADY SENT OUT UPDATED ZONE FORECASTS
TO MENTION WIND GUSTS AROUND 30 MPH OVER THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS...BUT
WITH SOME LOCALLY HIGHER WIND GUSTS POSSIBLE OVER THE HIGHER
ELEVATIONS. BUFKIT SOUNDINGS STILL SHOW A LOW LEVEL INVERSION OVER
THE REGION THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF TODAY...SO AM NOT EXPECTING ANY
OF THESE STRONGER WINDS TO MIX DOWN INTO VALLEY LOCATIONS.
OTHERWISE...THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST LOOKS GOOD.
