The forecaster's own words
NWS ALY issued Oct 23, 1:43 PM ET
Key Messages: 1) High confidence in dry conditions persisting through at least the middle of next week. Discussion: Key Message 1: A strong surface high around 1035 hPa continues to build in over southern Quebec, NY and New England tonight. Near ideal radiational cooling conditions set-up with mostly clear to partly cloudy skies and light to calm winds, as some cirrus may drift in over the top of the mid and upper level ridge after midnight. The low-levels are very dry with PWATS close to 0.25", which are 1-2 STDEVS below normal based on th latest NAEFS guidance. Lows will fall into the 20s to around 30F (close to a MAV/MET/NBM blend). The coldest readings may be over the southern Dacks and the sheltered valleys north of Albany. The thin cirrus should diminish tomorrow morning with the sfc anticyclone centered over NY and New England with mostly sunny skies by the afternoon and light winds. Max temps will be seasonable with 50s to around 60F in a few locations. Another chilly night is expected with ideal radiational cooling conditions once again with mostly clear skies/light to calm winds with lows falling into the mid 20s to lower 30s. Not much change with the sensible weather to close the weekend with the H500 ridge over the lower MS River Valley folding over into the Northeast, and the sfc high very slowly drifting south and east of the forecast area heading into Sunday night. Temps rise slightly above normal to close the weekend in the 50s to lower 60s across the forecast area.
