Forecasters' discussion
From the National Weather Service office in BGM, issued 4 hrs ago
What Has Changed
Slightly adjusted some of the temperature and dewpoint values for the next couple of days.
Key Messages
1) High pressure will remain over the northeast for the next week with dry conditions, warm afternoon temps, and cool mornings.
Discussion
KEY MESSAGE 1...
High pressure will be in place over the region through the weekend into early next week. The high pressure will weaken a cold front as it attempts to push through the region Thursday into Friday. This should act as a slight cooling trend. With the dry pattern continuing lows should end up slightly below model guidance with highs ending up a bit warmer most days. Another weak cold front looks to push into the region around Tuesday next week. Some ensemble members have a few showers with it. For now, signal too low to mention any shower chances.
Aviation
VFR conditions expected across the region as we continue to sit under high pressure. Fog at ELM now seems unlikely as surface winds remain light and variable and guidance has greatly backed off restrictions developing.
Outlook...
Wednesday afternoon through Sunday...Mainly VFR. Morning fog at KELM possible each morning.
