.SYNOPSIS...
-- Changed Discussion --
High pressure builds into the region through Sunday and moves
off the New England coast Sunday night into Monday. A warm front
passes to the west and north during Monday. A cold front slowly
approaches on Tuesday and passes through the area sometime
Wednesday evening into Wednesday night. Weak high pressure
likely returns thereafter.-- End Changed Discussion --

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
-- Changed Discussion --
Surface high pressure centered over the eastern Great Lakes
builds slowly east through today as an upper ridge amplifies
across the northern plains and upper midwest. A northerly flow
with lowering dew points will build into the region with nearly
clear conditions. The strato cu over the lower Hudson Valley
continues to dissipate with drier air moving in, and weak
subsidence. Temperatures will be near seasonal levels.-- End Changed Discussion --

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY/...
-- Changed Discussion --
The surface high continues to build east tonight through Sunday
and off the New England coast Sunday night into Monday as an
upper ridge continues to amplify. The ridge axis moves to the
coast Sunday night and Monday. A weak warm front will move west
and north of the region Monday, with little lift or moisture.
With clear skies, and winds becoming light, tonight will be a
good radiational cooling night. There is a chance that winds
remain above 5kts into late tonight before decoupling. Frost
formation will be possible across a large portion of the region,
with temperatures at or near freezing inland, and generally in
the mid 30s elsewhere, except the NYC metro area where
temperatures will be near 40 degrees, and the Long Island Pine
Barrens with temperatures possibly at or below freezing for a
few hours. With the growing season having ended across the
interior zones, frost and freeze headlines will not be posted.
However, the growing season continues across coastal
Connecticut, and portions of northeastern New Jersey, and Long
Island. With the possibility of frost tonight a Frost Advisory
have been issued for coastal Connecticut, Southern Westchester
county, Eastern Bergen county, and Suffolk county. There is a
chance that dew point depressions will be too large for frost
to develop.
With the airmass in place Sunday night and overnight
temperatures similar to Saturday night, freezing temperatures
inland, and frost formation along the coast will be possible
once again.
Temperatures will be new seasonal levels tonight through
Monday.-- End Changed Discussion --

**Key Points**
* A warming trend through Wednesday followed by a slight cool down
late week.
*A dry forecast through the beginning of the period with shower
chances developing Wednesday-Thursday night.
Deep ridging will be in place over the east coast Monday night,
with high pressure centered offshore. A cold front will slowly
approach from the west and a warming trend will continue before
it`s passage sometime Wednesday evening into Wednesday night.
Highs Tuesday look to be in the low to mid 70s, with mid to
upper 70s on Wednesday. These highs are about 20 degrees above
normal for early November. Confidence is relatively at the
moment given little spread across the NBM MaxT percentiles.
Forecast confidence falls off later on Wednesday with the cold
front moving through. The GFS and ECMWF bring the weak cold
front through, with high pressure returning in it`s wake. The
Canadian however seems to stall the front and forms a low over
or near the area as a strong shortwave moves overhead. This
solution could bring a good soaking rain to the area. The
ensembles follow relatively close to their deterministic models,
so the LREF Grandensemble and NBM are showing at least some
light QPF and PoP Wednesday through Friday due to the GEPS
input. Capped at low end slight chance for now. Temperatures
cool off a bit, but remain above normal through the end of next
week.-- End Changed Discussion --
