.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
Increased chances of precipitation for this morning with showers
moving through western NY.

&&

.KEY MESSAGES...
1) Long wave trough pattern remains in place over the next week
with frequent areas of low pressure moving through bringing
occasional periods of light rain.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...

An upper level low is cut off over the Hudson bay in Canada
with a trough extending down into the northeast through at least
mid next week. This keeps 850 mb temperatures below average.
With the location of the trough and ridging through the crest of
the Rockies out west, flow in the US will largely be off shore
so even though we will see frequent shortwaves and areas of low
pressure rotate around the base of the trough bringing periods
of light rain, overall rain amounts over the next 7 days is less
than an inch of liquid. So despite getting an area of low
pressure move through every 24 to 36 hours or so, each one may
bring a tenth to a quarter inch of rain. After tonight, the
frost threat will be done until Monday and Tuesday night when
there is a good chance that 850 mb temperatures fall back below
0C and trends in the models have been dropping the temperatures
closer to -5C.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A trough will move across the region tonight and bring occasional
spotty showers to the area with brief MVFR restrictions as
well. There could be a very brief window for fog late
tonight/early Friday morning, but not confident enough in
location to add to the TAFs. Another wave is expected to move
through tomorrow leading to scattered showers from late- morning
into the afternoon. The potential for flight restrictions still
looks low. Conditions dry out and clouds likely clear out closer
to 00Z Saturday as the front moves out of the area.

West/northwest winds will be light tonight before increasing out
of the west gusting up to 20 kt Friday after 15Z...and lasting
through 22Z before becoming less than 10 kt.

Outlook:

Friday through Monday..Cool and unsettled period with
intermittent chances for showers and restrictions.

Tuesday...Mainly VFR; low chance of isolated showers.

&&

.BGM WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
PA...None.
NY...None.
