Area forecast discussion, Jul 30, 3:26 PM EDT, 14 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Burlington VT 326 PM EDT Tue Jul 30 2019 .SYNOPSIS... The threat for strong to possibly severe storms will continue through this evening across the entire North Country with frequent lightning...heavy downpours...and strong wind gusts. Eventually the threat will diminish later tonight with just some lingering showers or storms expected overnight. Wednesday will see a chance of showers or thunderstorms...especially in the afternoon. A cold front will move across the region Wednesday night and this will bring cooler and drier weather to the region Thursday and continuing right through Saturday. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/... As of 326 PM EDT Tuesday...Storms continue to move northeast late this afternoon across northern New York where deep layer shear has been increasing over the top of favorable instability. We've been seeing outflows of 25 to 35 mph with some of the storms...which has helped to initiate new storms. This idea is expected to continue with storms moving into Vermont where better instability exists. Thus the risk for strong to severe storms will continue with frequent lightning...heavy downpours...and wind gusts of 40 to 60 mph possible through this evening. Severe Thunderstorm Watch #545 continues until 9pm tonight. Later tonight we lose the instability and organized convection should come to an end...with only lingerings showers and isolated thunderstorms. Lows will be in the 60s to around 70. Since the main cold front has not moved into the region yet there will be some instability developing on Wednesday with highs in the mid 70s to lower 80s and dew points in the 60s. Deep layer shear is weaker...so expect showers and storms to develop but not become strong or severe. The greatest areal coverage of showers and storms should be across Vermont. The cold front finally moves northwest to southeast across the area Wednesday night and any showers and storms will come to an end by midnight. Cooler and drier air will start to move into the region with lows in the mid 50s to lower 60s. && .SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/... As of 326 PM EDT Tuesday...Really nice day expected on Thursday as upper level trough axis exits to our east and shortwave ridging moves in aloft. W-NW flow will keep us seasonable and dry as surface high pressure noses into the region. Temperatures on Thursday will remain near normal in the mid 70s to around 80. Patchy fog development will be possible in the favored river valleys under clear skies and light winds. Overnight lows will be comfortable in the low to mid 50s. && .LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... As of 326 PM EDT Tuesday...No major changes made to the forecast with generally quiet weather expected through the period except for some showers Saturday/Sunday as a weak front moves across the North Country. High pressure settles in for Friday with dry and seasonable weather expected, temperatures warm a couple degrees from Thursday with highs in the upper 70s to low 80s and lows in the upper 50s to around 60. Upper level ridging breaks down Saturday morning as a weak front crosses our area Saturday night. Best chances for precipitation will be near the International border but with meager moisture and overnight timing QPF amounts will be limited. Sunday chances for precipitation remain mainly across central and southern VT as upper level trough finally swings south out of Canada, but with surface trough well to the SW expecting mainly spotty showers possible. Temperatures through this period will be in the upper 70s to low 80s for highs and upper 50s to low 60s at night...really perfect summer weather. After this, large scale ridging moves in overhead through mid-week next week. && .AVIATION /19Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... Through 18z Wednesday...VFR conditions expected through the period. However...scattered showers and thunderstorms will be moving northeast across the area this afternoon and tonight. The thunderstorms will be most likely between 18z and 01z and will likely produce gusty winds...frequent lightning...small hail...and heavy downpours. Any of the storms will likely have IFR visibilities and MVFR ceilings with them. After 01z the precipitation will mainly be showers and conditions should return to VFR for the remainder of the period. Winds will be from the south and southwest at 5 to 15 knots with gusts to 25 knots. Look for a wind shift to the northwest to take place after 16z. Outlook... Wednesday Night: VFR. Slight chance SHRA, Patchy BR. Thursday: VFR. NO SIG WX. Thursday Night: VFR. NO SIG WX. Friday: VFR. NO SIG WX. Friday Night: VFR. NO SIG WX. Saturday: VFR. NO SIG WX. Saturday Night: VFR. Slight chance SHRA. Sunday: Mainly VFR, with local MVFR possible. Slight chance SHRA. && .BTV WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... VT...None.
