THE NORTHEAST REGION WILL REMAIN UNDER A WEAK AREA OF LOW PRESSURE
TONIGHT INTO LATE THURSDAY BEFORE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO PORTIONS
OF THE REGION ON FRIDAY. THIS WILL KEEP THE CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION

THE MAIN WEATHER-PRODUCING FEATURES FOR THIS PERIOD ARE A WEAK QUASI-
STATIONARY FRONT THAT MOVES NORTH AS A WARM FRONT LATER SATURDAY
FOLLOWED BY A DIGGING UPPER TROF LATER SUNDAY INTO TUESDAY WITH A
COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE LATE MONDAY. SO IT WILL BE ACTIVE WITH A
THREAT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ESPECIALLY SAT-MON.

CONSISTENT MODEL SOLUTIONS CONTINUE TODAY WITH THE LARGE SCALE
LEADING TO DECENT FORECAST CONFIDENCE.

COMPLETELY IN THE WARM SECTOR. THERE WILL BE INSTABILITY AGAIN WITH

EVEN BETTER CHANCES FOR SHOWERS/STORMS STILL LOOKS TO BE MONDAY
AND MONDAY NIGHT WHEN THE COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO PASS AND CAPES
RISE TO 1000-2000J/KG, INCREASING UPPER LEVEL DYNAMICS AND SHEAR FOR
A SLIGHT SEVERE THREAT.

BEHIND THE FRONT COOLER AIR RETURNS TO THE REGION FOR TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY...BUT WITH THE UPPER TROF REMAINING OVERHEAD COULD SEE
SOME LINGERING SHOWERS AROUND ESPECIALLY ACROSS EASTERN VERMONT ON

UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S AND LOWS IN THE UPPER 40S TO UPPER 50S.
