.SYNOPSIS...
-- Changed Discussion --
Low pressure over southern Maine will continue moving northeast, reaching the Canadian Maritimes this afternoon and tonight. An upper level disturbance will move across on Tuesday, then high pressure over the Ohio Valley will build toward the Mid Atlantic coast Tuesday night. A warm front will pass to the north on Wednesday as the high reaches the coast. The high will then remain in control Thursday into Friday. Low pressure will then impact the region Friday afternoon and night, followed by high pressure building back in on Saturday.

&& .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
-- Changed Discussion --
Low pressure continues to pull away from the area through New England. Skies have cleared over most of the area for now on a gusty W flow, with temps dropping into the upper 30s and 40s. Gusty W flow will continue today as temps rise to the upper 40s and lower 50s. Cyclonic low level flow should allow a fair amount of stratocu redevelopment today, then skies should begin to clear later today, particularly along the coast. Winds will be slow to diminish in the metro area and near the coast tonight as skies become mostly clear throughout. Low temps should range from 25-30 inland and parts of central/eastern Long Island, to the lower 30s in the NYC metro area and along the immediate coastline.

&& .SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... Below normal temps expected through the period, first as an upper level shortwave trough moves across on Tue, then as high pressure slides to the south on Wed. High temps on Tue should only range from 35-40. W-NW winds increase Tue afternoon and evening as the upper level disturbance passes by, with gusts 30-35 mph likely especially in the metro area and closer to the coast. Still cannot rule out a few snow streamers/flurries across the interior mainly well north and west of NYC Tue afternoon. CAA Tue night will yield lows mostly in the 20s. Highs on Wed should be similar to those of Tue despite a developing return flow as a warm front passes well north, ranging from the mid 30s inland to the lower 40s invof NYC. && .LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/... The flow aloft becomes somewhat flat Thursday into Friday with a weak surface cold front passing through during Friday night. Dry at least for Thursday through Friday morning. The cold front will then combine with lift from a jet streak aloft and some mid- level vorticity for chances of rain Friday afternoon into night. Have capped PoPs at chance for now, but wouldn`t be surprised if PoPs eventually get bumped into the likely category for some point during this period. Highs mostly 45-50 on Thursday, then milder at 50-55 with a SW wind. High pressure builds in on Saturday with dry weather and near normal highs around 50. The high retreats into SE Canada during Sunday with overrunning rainfall possible ahead of an approaching warm front. && .AVIATION /12Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... High pressure builds in from the west. VFR. W winds increasing a little after sunrise to around 15kt with gusts around 25kt. West winds diminish this evening, but remaining gusty at around 20kt. ...NY Metro(KEWR/KLGA/KJFK/KTEB) TAF Uncertainty... Occasional gusts 20-25kt possible before 13z. OUTLOOK FOR 12Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY... Tonight: VFR. W winds gust around 20kt. Tue: VFR. W wind increase to 20-25kt, G30-35kt in the afternoon. Wed: VFR. SW wind 10-15kt, G20-25kt. Thu: VFR.

Gale warning replaced with SCA for the ern ocean waters where W flow is likely no longer gusting to 35 kt. SCA in effect for all other waters into tonight, with W winds gusting to 25-30 kt and ocean seas 7-10 ft. A favorable westerly fetch should build seas on the central/eastern Sound to at least 5-6 ft as well. SCA conditions remain on the waters Tuesday and Tuesday night, and there is still a good chance that gusts reach gale force on the ocean waters Tuesday afternoon/night. Gales may also be on the eastern Sound and bays of Long Island for a few hours Tuesday evening as well. SCA conditions continue Wednesday through at least Thursday on the ocean with elevated seas of 4-6 ft and periods of westerly gusts of around 25 kt. Sub-advisory conditions follow for Thursday night and Friday morning, then SW winds increase with a return of 25+ kt gusts on the ocean, along with seas building above 5 ft.
