&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AT 18Z...987 MILLIBAR LOW /REMNANTS OF SANDY/ WAS VICINITY OF
PITTSBURGH /KPIT/. A MOIST SOUTHEAST FLOW ASSOCIATED WITH THIS
SYSTEM CONTINUED ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA WITH RADAR AND SATELLITE
SHOWING SCATTERED TO BROKEN UPSTREAM CONVECTION CONTINUING TO
TRACK ONSHORE. THE POSSIBILITY FOR LOCALIZED FLOODING CONTINUES
THROUGH EVENING WITH THESE AREAS OF CONVECTION...NAMELY ACROSS THE
HIGHER TERRAIN...AND THE FLOOD WATCH WILL CONTINUE THROUGH LATE
EVENING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
THE REMNANTS OF SANDY CONTINUES TO WEAKEN ON WEDNESDAY...BUT THE

THE REMNANTS OF SANDY WILL LIFT NORTH INTO ONTARIO PROVINCE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT. SHOWERS SHOULD END ACROSS THE COASTAL PLAIN BY

SANDY WILL HAVE MIGRATED INTO CENTRAL QUEBEC. THE HEAVIER RAIN
SHOWERS WILL HAVE MOVED NORTH OF NH AND MAINE WITH ONLY LIGHT
SHOWERS OCCURRING FROM TIME TO TIME WITH NO REAL FOCUS OR FORCING
MECHANISM BESIDES OROGRAPHIC LIFT. THE WEAKENING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
WILL FILL AND MOVE EAST...DRIFTING OVER NORTHERN MAINE FRIDAY NIGHT
BEFORE FINALLY MOVING OFFSHORE SATURDAY NIGHT.

THIS WILL ALLOW COLD NORTHWEST FLOW TO DEVELOP AT THE SURFACE.
TEMPERATURES WILL DROP A FEW DEGREES OVER THE WEEKEND AS COLD AIR
ADVECTION FILTERS IN FROM THE NORTH. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BEGIN
FLIRTING WITH FREEZING TEMPERATURES SATURDAY NIGHT. THE COLDEST
NIGHT LOOKS TO BE SUNDAY NIGHT AS A COLD DOME OF HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTHWEST. THE SURFACE HIGH DOMINATES THROUGH
