Synopsis:
The wind will stay busy through today due to the difference in strong weather systems. Intense low pressure be draped over the North Atlantic with strong high pressure centered over central Canada. Mainly sunny skies are expected today and Thursday with winds abating by later Thursday. Highs will range near average-the mid 40s.
On Friday winds will relax high pressure noses down from Canada. Any sun will give way to clouds.
JMW is gaining more confidence in the evolution of the next storm for Friday evening into Saturday. Upper level energy will be diving out of the Great Lakes and spawning a coastal low. The models are starting to come into agreement. The low will track to the South of the region and give the area a round of precipitation starting Friday evening and ending during the morning on Saturday. The potential is for rain or a mix for coastal areas, possibly ending as some snow. Farther inland a mix or snow is likely with a likely accumulation. A few inches North and West is the first guess at this time. The precipitation will end Saturday and skies may break for some sun later in the day.
Sunday definitely will be the better half of the weekend with brighter skies and seasonable readings as high pressure influences the region.
Stay tuned. Keep it here for a no nonsense, no hype forecast.
