KEY MESSAGE 1...Trending warmer this weekend and into next week.

Mid to upper level ridge will build across the Great Lakes this
weekend before shifting east into the Northeastern portions of the
CONUS throughout the course of next week. Temperatures will
gradually increase by the end of the weekend and into early next
week. Heat and humidity will then increase further throughout the
middle and end of next week, which may result in the potential for
heat-related headlines as the risk for dangerous heat indices
increase. However, due to the potential for scattered showers and
thunderstorms both Tuesday and Wednesday there may be some short-
term relief from the heat. Stay tuned!

&&

.AVIATION /14Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
MVFR CIGs at KIAG and KART will erode by 16z/17z. Otherwise, VFR
flight conditions expected this afternoon. A limited opportunity
for showers and thunderstorms across the Saint Lawrence Valley
and northern Adirondacks (mainly east and north of KART).

A few showers may pass across the Southern Tier this evening,
bringing some brief/local restrictions. Lingering moisture will
again support patchy fog and local IFR tonight into early Saturday
morning

Outlook...

Saturday...VFR.

Sunday through Tuesday...Mainly VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
Weak pressure gradient in place as surface high pressure builds into
and across the region this weekend and into next week, resulting in
winds and waves to remain well below Small Craft Advisory criteria.
