.SYNOPSIS...
Upper level disturbance will bring cool weather through tomorrow
with heavy showers and a few thunderstorms. Ridging builds in on
Sunday with warmer and mainly dry conditions expected into
Monday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
300 PM update...

Upper level low pressure system is producing scattered heavy
showers and a few thunderstorms this afternoon. Showers and
storms have been slow moving with weak flow aloft, this has
allowed some areas to pick up 2 to 3 inches of rain already
today with minor flooding in a few spots.

Water vapor imagery shows the upper low currently in western PA
and this feature will move eastward and will be centered over
New England by Saturday night.

There have been a few breaks in the clouds this afternoon. This
has created enough instability with the cold air aloft to
produce a few thunderstorms that have had some small hail, with
freezing levels down to only 10K feet. However, the main threat
for today remains the heavy rainfall in slow moving storms.

Will have to continue to watch for minor isolated flooding
through this evening, especially in areas that have already seen
those higher rainfall totals today. With the loss of heating
this evening, we should see shower and storm activity diminish
with more isolated showers into the overnight hours. Overall,
the flash flood threat is low, but with the slow movement of
these cells, it can't be ruled out.

Tomorrow, there should be less instability with more cloud cover
likely. Showers will again be more common in the afternoon just
like today. High temperatures will be around 70 Saturday with
low temperatures falling into the mid and upper 50s tonight.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
320 PM update...

Mostly sunny skies are expected for Sunday. Chances for showers and
thunderstorms remain low. While still under the influences of the
upper level low, combined with daytime heating, there could be some
thunderstorm activity in the afternoon and early evening hours. The
best chances for thunderstorms will be in the Poconos and Catskills.
Any rain shower and thunderstorm activity should conclude by sunset,
which will be favorable for any holiday celebrations scheduled then.
Sunday will be a pleasant day for most with shower chances limited
and temperatures in the 70s. A cool night is in store as nighttime
temps drop into the 50s.

With weak high pressure over the area, rain chances will be limited
during the day on Monday. Chances for rain showers and isolated
thunderstorms are a little better Monday night with as a weak front
moves into the region. The best chances for rain showers will be in
parts of northern Susquehanna Region and areas northward. This is a
change from our previous forecast where all of CNY had a decent
chance at showers Monday night. There is some uncertainty as the GFS
shows widespread showers while the ECMWF keeps most of the region
fairly dry. Due to this uncertainty, mainly the National Blend of
Models (NBM) was used for PoPs late night Monday which resulted in
the forecast being closer to the ECMWF solution.

Monday will be warmer and more humid as highs will be in the 80s and
low 90s with dew points in the 60s as a ridge brings warmer air and
moisture to the region.  Forecasted temps were bumped up a couple of
degrees above guidance due to that ridge bringing warmer air into
the region. Lows on Monday will also be warm with 60s across most of
the area, but 70s are possible over the northern Finger Lakes
areas.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
320 PM update...

Not much has changed with the activity expected in the long term.
This period is full of chances for rain showers and thunderstorms.
The early part of the week will be warm with a cool down expected
mid-week.

Chances for showers and afternoon thunderstorms at better going into
Tuesday as the next system passes through. Warmer temps during the
day will again provide some support for convection in the afternoon
and evening hours. Daytime highs will be in the 80s and low 90s with
dew points in the 60s, leading to another warm, humid day. Overnight
lows will be comfortable as 50s are expected.

A trough begins to dig south across the Central US mid-week. With
the trough over the Great Lakes, it brings another round of showers
and thunderstorms to the area. A slight cooling trend is also
expected around mid-week, as highs on Wednesday will be in the upper
70s to mid 80s. This trough moves east through the end of the week
bringing additional rounds of showers and thunderstorms.
Temperatures should remain seasonal through the end of the week.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
An upper level disturbance will continue to bring showers and
thunderstorms and associated restrictions to the region through
this evening. Brief IFR conditions will be possible through this
afternoon in the heavier showers and storms. Overnight, low
ceilings and vsbys are possible through Saturday morning.
Ceilings and vsbys should begin to lift by mid morning. More
showers and thunderstorms are expected tomorrow as this upper
level system remains in the vicinity, but not enough confidence
to put in restrictions at any one terminal at this time.

Outlook...

Saturday afternoon through Saturday night... Restrictions
possible in scattered showers and storms.

Sunday and Monday...Mainly VFR.

Tuesday and Wednesday...Mainly VFR; but showers and
thunderstorms with brief restrictions will be possible.
