Forecasters' discussion

From the National Weather Service office in RNK, issued 2 hrs ago

What Has Changed

Aviation updated.

Models continue to have problems with forecasting dewpoints, especially during the afternoon, which impacts the RH forecast. Continue to lower them. Low temperatures were also lowered as wedging developing over the region starting tonight, will start to advect cooler air from the Northeast down into the Mid- Atlantic states.

Key Messages

1) Dry with seasonable temperatures through middle of next week.

Discussion

KEY MESSAGE 1:Dry with seasonable temperatures through middle of next week.

The region will continue to remain under the influence of surface high pressure through the middle of next week. With high pressure and mostly clear skies over the region through the next week, temperatures look to moderate to more seasonable values in the 60s and 70s for highs each day, and 30s/40s for lows at night. Overnight temperatures were lowered some as surface wedging looks to develop tonight across the region. This will help advect cooler air from the Northeast into the Mid- Atlantic states over the next several days as high pressure remains quasi-stationary across the Northeast.

At this time, no precipitation is expected through at least the end of next week, and is not looking likely for the remainder of the month.

Aviation

VFR conditions are expected through the TAF period. Some fog along the mountain river valleys, but impacts at LWB/BCB is unlikely at this time given the very dry airmass across the region. Winds look to continue to remain out of the northeast through the TAF period at around 5-10 knots, with gusts up to 15 knots through the 15-00 UTC timeframe today.

EXTENDED OUTLOOK...

VFR conditions likely to continue into next week. Any fog should be limited to over bodies of water, and not foreseeing any issues at the TAF sites.
