.SYNOPSIS... High pressure remains in control into Wednesday. A weak low to the south may graze the area Wednesday night into Thursday night, followed by weak high pressure Friday and into the beginning of next weekend.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/... A weak upper trough moves through the region by early this evening, with little moisture and weak lift. With surface high pressure dominating and low levels remaining rather dry as per Bufkit soundings, will maintain slight chance probabilities mainly across the interior. Perhaps areas see only a few sprinkles.
The upper trough moves through the region tonight and into Sunday morning, with weak surface high pressure remaining in control. Winds will be light with mostly clear conditions. Radiational cooling will allow for the outlying areas to fall into the mid 50s, and with dew points also in the mid 50s patchy fog will be possible late overnight and into early Sunday morning.
&&
.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/... A weak cold front does approach the region for Sunday, and looks to dissipate as the upper trough axis moves east of the region and surface high pressure dominates. Kept with the slight chances Sunday afternoon, however, with little instability removed the mention of thunder. Again, low levels remain dry, and any showers will be light, or maybe be just a few sprinkles.
High pressure then returns Sunday night into Monday night.
&&
.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... Key Points:
* Dry conditions with seasonable temperatures are forecast through Wednesday afternoon.
* A weak low to the south may graze the area Wednesday night into Thursday night.
* Dry and warmer conditions Friday, with dry conditions into the beginning of next weekend.
Ridging will continue to build over much of the eastern CONUS Tuesday into Wednesday. A weak inverted trough is still possible along the eastern coast, moving northward under the ridge, Wednesday night into Thursday night. There will once again be minimal chances for precipitation. There is still some uncertainty with its location and continued with the NBM guidance. After this low pulls away, weak surface ridging returns into the beginning of next weekend.
&&
.AVIATION /03Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... Mainly VFR through the TAF period. Isolated showers along the coast will dissipate through 5Z with no impact to flight categories. Another low chance for SHRA after 18Z Sunday for all terminals but coverage too uncertain to include in the TAFs at this time.
S/SE flow early this evening becoming light and variable overnight. Winds then become S at the coasts after 15Z Sunday.
...NY Metro (KEWR/KLGA/KJFK/KTEB) TAF Uncertainty...
No unscheduled amendments expected through Sunday morning. Isolated SHRA possible Sunday afternoon with amendments possible.
.OUTLOOK FOR 03Z MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...
Sunday night through Thursday: VFR.
