A rainy and windy end to the work week gives way to a dry and pleasant, though chilly weekend for most. However, a quick return to unsettled conditions will bring additional chances for rain and light, high elevation snow early next week. && .SHORT TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... Key Messages: - 0.5" to 1.5" of rain is expected across eastern New York and western New England today through Friday with locally higher amounts of 2" to 2.5" possible across portions of the highest elevations of the Southwest Adirondacks, Eastern Catskills, and Southern Greens. - Gusty winds on the order of 20 to 35 mph will be common across much of the region today, increasing to a range of 30 to 40 mph Friday with maximum gusts up to 45 mph expected across areas of higher terrain. Discussion: Potent upper-level troughing extending from the Ohio Valley through the Southeast has begun to take on a slight negative tilt as its associated surface low deepens over the North Carolina/Virginia border. Deep, moist southerly flow intersecting isentropic lift ahead of the low's warm front and enhanced surface convergence from both this front and off a secondary low/surface wave has allowed an area of showers to develop and expand northward into the region already this morning. Throughout the day today, the aforementioned upper-level trough will continue to fill to the northeast, furthering its negative tilt and allowing the surface cyclone to traverse the Appalachians. Forcing for ascent will increase across the region as the divergent left exit region of the strengthening, southerly upper- level jet moves into the region just ahead of the strengthening southeasterly LLJ and the axis of enhanced isentropic lift. Showers will therefore congeal into a stratiform rain shield with embedded moderate to locally heavy rainfall rates, especially in upslope regions of the Eastern Catskills and Southwest Adirondacks. Winds will also become gusty, especially across the high peaks, courtesy of the 45-55kt 850mb LLJ and deep layer moisture that could lead to precipitation loading. However, gusts are anticipated to remain below advisory criteria (46 mph) outside of any isolated instances of rapid rain-cooling that could lead to a stronger gust, again especially at highest elevations. The heaviest (0.1-0.25"/hr with isolated pockets of 0.5"/hr in the Eastern Catskills), most consistent rainfall will occur this afternoon into this evening before the system occludes and dry air entrainment leads to a fairly significant dry slot tonight. However, as the surface low moves off to our northeast tomorrow and its upper-level counter part moves overhead, wrap-around and lake-enhanced showers will spread into the region. Most of the additional rainfall will occur at higher elevations where now westerly flow will lead to upslope enhancement, but some additional showers sneaking into valley areas cannot be ruled out. Once again, winds will be gusty on Friday and a little more so than today given the cold advected environment and persistence of elevated low-level winds on the rear flank of the system. However, with gusts looking to range from about 30-40 mph as a whole, we held off on any advisories for Friday as well. It is important to note, however, that higher elevations of the Eastern Catskills especially could see wind gusts near wind advisory criteria on Friday. Therefore, we will monitor the guidance and issue advisories as necessary. Trick or Treaters- just be sure to hold on to those candy buckets on Friday evening! Upslope and lake-enhanced showers linger into Friday night and possibly early Saturday morning before drier, zonal flow behind the departing system reinforces dry conditions regionwide. Upper-levels will then remain zonal as high pressure builds in at the surface through Saturday night, so temperatures will be on the chillier side to start the weekend. That said, highs today will be in the upper 40s to upper 50s with lows tonight in the upper 30s to upper 40s. Friday, highs will drop a few degrees into the mid 40s to mid/upper 50s with lows falling to the upper 20s to low 40s. Finally, Saturday will feature highs in the upper 30s to low 40s across higher terrain with mid 40s to low/mid 50s elsewhere. Saturday night's lows will be the coolest of the short term period with values in the upper 20s to mid 30s. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... Sunday remains dry and seasonably chilly as high pressure remains in place at the surface with zonal flow aloft. High temperatures will be a few degrees warmer than Saturday with values widely in the low 40s to mid 50s and pockets of upper 30s at the highest peaks of our elevated terrain regions. Lows Sunday night, similarly to Saturday night, will then fall to the upper 20s to mid 30s. Guidance is still a little varied in their depictions of our next chances for precipitation, but the general consensus points to Monday evening/Monday night as the period where regionwide dry conditions comes to an end. Presently, a low pressure system and associated upper-level trough sliding eastward through southeast Canada look to swing a series of fronts through the region, bringing primarily high-elevation precipitation. Due to the current timing and placement of showers, precipitation will likely not be all rain. Most of the showers look to be confined to areas north of the Capital District Monday night into Tuesday morning where colder temperatures will support snow showers. Some of the guidance, however, has showers making it as far south as the Mid-Hudson Valley, so a mix of rain, snow, and rain/snow showers was maintained in the forecast as output by the latest run of the NBM. Snow showers will be light and confined to the highest elevations of the Southwest Adirondacks, Eastern Catskills, and Southern Greens with little to no impact anticipated at this time. Another disturbance could potentially bring another batch of showers sometime Wednesday, but there is little consensus on this element of the forecast at this time so only slight chance to chance PoPs were included in the forecast at this time. Highs Monday will be noticeably warmer than Saturday and Sunday with values in the upper 40s to upper 50s to near 60 in the lower Mid-Hudson Valley. Lows Monday night will be in the low 30s to low 40s. Highs Tuesday will be a few degrees cooler than those of Monday with lows Tuesday night in the upper 20s to mid 30s. Temperatures Wednesday and Wednesday night will be similar to those of Tuesday and Tuesday night. && .AVIATION /12Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... Through 12z Friday...Cigs will continue to lower to MVFR levels from south to north this morning, as a storm system approaches from the south/west. Intermittent light showers will move across the TAF sites through early afternoon, so will mention TEMPOs for occasional MVFR vsby. Steadier/heavier rain moves in from SW to NE later this afternoon into this evening as low pressure moves in. This is when IFR conditions will be most favored at all TAF sites. Will also mention IFR cigs at higher elevation site KPSF starting after 12z this morning. Winds will be east/northeast and steadily increasing through the day to 7-12 kt with gusts of 20 kt developing at KPOU/KPSF. Will also mention LLWS at KPOU/KPSF developing by later this morning, as a E/SE jet of 40-50 kt moves overhead into tonight. Outlook... Friday Night: Moderate Operational Impact. Breezy. Chance of SHRA. Saturday: Low Operational Impact. Breezy. NO SIG WX. Saturday Night: No Operational Impact. NO SIG WX. Sunday: No Operational Impact. NO SIG WX. Sunday Night: No Operational Impact. NO SIG WX. Monday: Moderate Operational Impact. Chance of SHRA. && .ALY WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CT...None. NY...None. MA...None.
