.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure building in from the north will bring cooler and drier
weather to the area for the first half of the week. Mainly dry
conditions will continue for the remainder of the week, with
temperatures gradually warming as the week goes on.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
Key Message(s):
- Cooler and drier air slowly moving into the area.
- Breezy at times during the afternoon.
The cold front has moved well south of the area now, with a
modified polar air mass moving in behind. The pressure gradient
has tightened up nicely, with wind gusts in the mid teens
already. Gusts should peak near or a bit above 20 knots during
the late morning and early afternoon before the gradient starts
slowly relaxing again. The northeasterly winds will support
modest low level cold advection, with max temps this afternoon
5-10 degrees cooler than yesterday. Enough moisture should be
around at mid levels to maintain partly cloudy skies into this
evening.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
Key message(s):
- Tuesday will likely be the coolest day of the week. Low threat for
a passing shower or two along and east of I-95.
- Wednesday is slightly warmer but temperatures remain near to
slightly below seasonal values.
Weak upper troughing will be in place to our west during the short
term. At the surface, strong high pressure centered over New England
will maintain northeasterly flow while an inverted trough keeps a
moisture gradient across the coastal plain. A passing shower or two
cannot be ruled out on Tuesday into Tuesday night, mainly along and
east of I-95, when the PWAT gradient tries to push inland across the
eastern Midlands. A strengthening wedge pattern pushes a reinforcing
shot of drier air into the region on Wednesday with mostly sunny
skies and slightly warmer, albeit near to slightly below normal,
daytime temperatures.
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Key message(s):
- Continued dry with near normal temperatures through the period.
An upper trough remains positioned over the east coast through the
long term. Meanwhile, surface high pressure maintains a
northeasterly flow and dry weather with rain not expected through
the weekend. Temperatures will be near seasonal values Thursday and
Friday and may be slightly cooler during the weekend.
&&
.AVIATION /12Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
VFR conditions will rule into tonight as any ceilings should be
well above concern levels. Winds will be a bit gusty at times
from the northeast, diminishing late today.
EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...A cooler and drier air mass will settle
over the region early this week behind the front. Mainly VFR
conditions expected.
