.LONG TERM...(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 325 PM EDT SUN JUN 7 2015

FOR THE FIRST PORTION OF THE LONG TERM FORECAST THE CWA WILL BE
UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF A BROAD 500MB TROUGH PARKED OVER THE
NORTHEASTERN UNITED STATES...QUEBEC...AND ONTARIO. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THAT IMPACT THE AREA SUN/MON WILL EXIT THE AREA BY
MONDAY EVENING AS THE FIRST WAVE MOVES OUT. RELATIVELY ZONAL FLOW
TAKES OVER BRIEFLY FOR TUESDAY WITH SFC HIGH PRESSURE IN PLACE...SO
EXPECT DRY MAINLY DRY CONDITIONS FOR TUESDAY...WITH HIGHS IN THE LOW
TO MID 80S FOR MOST LOCATIONS AS 850MB TEMPS RISE TO 14-15C.

THE SECOND SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH ON WEDNESDAY. VERTICALLY STACKED LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL REACH NORTHERN ONTARIO WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND
MOVE INTO QUEBEC BY THURSDAY MORNING. THIS WILL BRING A COLD FRONT
ACROSS THE CWA WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. BOTH ECMWF/GFS HAVE 1000-1500
J/KG MUCAPE WITH 30-40 KNOTS 0-6KM BULK SHEAR. MOISTURE LOOKS TO BE
FAIRLY LIMITED HOWEVER...WITH PWATS AROUND 1.3 INCHES. KEPT GOING
MENTION OF SHOWER/T-STORMS FOR WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

THE COLD FRONT DRIFTS TOWARDS THE SOUTHERN CWA THURSDAY AFTERNOON
AND BECOMES STATIONARY AS LOW PRESSURE TAKES SHAPE IN THE
CENTRAL/NORTHERN PLAINS. THIS WILL BRING ADDITIONAL CHANCES FOR
SHOWERS/T-STORMS.

EVENTUALLY MOISTURE TRANSPORT/WAA INCREASE AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING
SYSTEM...FORCING THE BOUNDARY NORTHWARD AS A WARM FRONT FRIDAY
MORNING. THIS PUTS THE CWA SQUARELY INTO THE WARM SECTOR. FLOW ALOFT
IS ZONAL...WITH STRENGTHENING HIGH OVER THE ATLANTIC/SOUTHEASTERN
U.S. AND A TROUGH OVER THE WEST AND SOUTHWEST. MODEL DIFFERENCES
BECOME SIGNIFICANT AT THIS POINT...BUT GIVEN THE EVENTUALLY STALLED
BOUNDARY AND SOMEWHAT ZONAL FLOW THINK CONSENSUS CHANCE-SLIGHT
CHANCE POPS ARE WARRANTED FOR NOW. PATTERN REMAINS RELATIVELY
UNCHANGED THROUGH MONDAY OF NEXT WEEK. TEMPERATURES REMAIN STEADY
AND NORMAL TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH THE WEEK...WITH HIGHS IN
