.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
-- Changed Discussion --
Forecast adjusted for hourly temperatures with slight adjustments for max temperatures. Otherwise, forecast on track. Upper ridge axis to our west flattens through the period as it heads toward us. This will promote weak surface ridging over the forecast area with the ridge axis reaching us late tonight into Wednesday morning. Sunny today with the wind mainly from the NW at 5-10 mph, but late day sea breezes will be possible for some coastal areas. High temperatures near normal from the mid 70s to around 80. With the high pressure center nearing us tonight, a light to calm wind will allow for good radiational cooling conditions at least for the first half of the night before some cirrus tries to offset this cooling late tonight. Used a MET/MAV MOS blend across the northern zones and the Pine Barrens region, which typically performs better than the deterministic NBM in this setup. Low temps falling to the mid and upper 40s for these areas.

&& .SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/... High pressure remains centered over the Northeast during Wednesday and then lingers just offshore on Thursday. Dry weather continues through the period with seasonable high temperatures both days, although Thursday will be a little warmer than Wednesday. Low temperatures near normal as well, along with enhanced cooling in the typical areas. Patchy fog will possible too both nights away from urban areas, primarily along the river valleys. && .LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... The period will feature an extended period of warm, dry weather underneath a quasi-stationary upper level high. This high may start to weaken on Mon as a cold front moves through eastern Canada and as low pressure starts to develop somewhere off the Southeast coast. High temps Fri-Sat should reach the lower/mid 80s, and slightly lower temps for Sunday/Mon with upper 70s/lower 80s, as a more maritime E-SE flow develops. Low temps each day should be fairly similar, mainly 60-65 for the NYC metro area and along the coast, and 55-60 inland. This should promote development of river valley fog each late night/early morning, and possibly also some hybrid radiation/advection low clouds and patchy fog near the coast Fri night and Sat night. && .AVIATION /14Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... VFR as high pressure builds in. NW flow around 10 kt expected. Sea breezes look less certain for the coastal terminals, and winds there may back W rather than SW for a time this afternoon. Winds become light NW this evening and N-NE late this evening/overnight. ...NY Metro (KEWR/KLGA/KJFK/KTEB) TAF Uncertainty... An ocnl gust 15-18 kt possible this afternoon, mainly for KEWR. Sea breeze at KJFK looks less certain and may remain just S of the terminal late this afternoon, with wind either backing W or fluctuating between NW-SW. OUTLOOK FOR 12Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY... Mainly VFR. Some late night/early morning low clouds/patchy fog may be possible at KGON/KBDR/KISP/KJFK Fri night and Sat night.
