A warm front, associated with low pressure moving through south central Canada and into the Hudson Bay region, will pass through the region this evening. This will be followed by an approaching cold front, moving through late tonight and during much of the day Monday. The front slows its eastward progression Monday as the upper trough become negative and the associated low tracks slowly northward through the Hudson Bay region. With the CAMs and global guidance in fair agreement with the timing of the front, and showers, have refined the timing of precipitation, delaying the onset until late tonight, and continuing through much of the day Monday, ending across the eastern areas by this evening. And have increased probabilities to categorical with the front. Have kept the mention of isolated thunder as some CAPE and instability, along with upper forcing, remains. Dry weather returns with the passage of the cold front, and as a large Canadian high builds toward the region Monday night through Tuesday.

&& .LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
-- Changed Discussion --
To begin the period an upper level low and its associated trough will be anchored across SE Canada and the Northeastern US. The upper low and its associated long wave trough will then lift out late in the week for Friday into Saturday. Upper level confluence will promote a rather expansive area of high pressure which builds gradually during mid week. The high will eventually get further south and settle nearby late in the week into the beginning of next weekend. This will lead to a prolonged stretch of dry weather as dew point readings lower to more fall-like levels. The high will provide the first textbook cP air mass of the fall season. This will lead to dry and crisp early fall weather with cool / chilly nights and mild days. Temperatures will average slightly below average through the period. Look for the coolest readings at night, especially in the more rural and outlying areas with strong radiational cooling away from the urban areas. Overnight minimums will be in the 40s, and possibly a few upper 30s in the outlying / rural locations, and closer to 50 in the more metropolitan areas. Daytime maxes will be in the 60s throughout the week, with a warming trend getting closer to the weekend. Daytime max temperatures should get back into the lower half of the 70s for a good portion of the area for the start of next weekend.

Sub-SCA conditions remain across the forecast waters through today. Ocean seas then build to SCA levels tonight as long period swells from Hurricane Kirk (see NHC for forecast details) move into the waters. These long period swells peak at 5 to 6 feet Monday, gradually subsiding below SCA late Monday night into Tuesday morning. Also, southerly winds ahead of a cold front may briefly gust to near 25 kt on the ocean waters Monday morning with the winds shifting to northwest with the cold front passage. Then Monday night northwest gusts may be near SCA levels. Early Tuesday morning winds and seas are expected to fall below SCA levels. A SCA remains on the ocean waters late tonight through early Tuesday morning. Sub small craft conditions will prevail through the mid week period on a W to NW wind.
