Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Burlington VT
435 AM EDT Sat Jun 8 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
Upper level low pressure will control the regions weather
through Monday with scattered to numerous diurnal showers each
day, along with a slight chance for thunderstorms. Drier
conditions return mid- week, but turn unsettled again towards
Friday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 344 AM EDT Saturday...Some showers have continued through
the overnight as base of upper trough and center of upper low
shifts over the North Country. We should have a break in the
showers later this morning as shortwave energy pushes out of our
forecast area. But, expect diurnally driven showers once again
this afternoon with a slight chance for thunderstorms as well.
With cold pool aloft under upper level low which will remain
stationary over our region through Sunday, there will be a
chance for showers with thunderstorms possible each afternoon.
Could also see some small hail with thunderstorms, but strong
winds should not be a concern. Showers will decrease in coverage
after sunset both this evening and Sunday evening. Surface
temperatures will be cooler than normal during the day and near
normal overnight. QPF will vary quite a bit, but some areas will
have heavier rain if they have multiple thunderstorms at one
location. From today through Sunday average rainfall will be
around a quarter of an inch to three quarters of an inch, with
locally higher amounts.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
As of 344 AM EDT Saturday...Unsettled weather will continue as
a closed upper low over the region slowly meanders eastward.
Showers will be diurnally driven for the most part, with
increased areal coverage in showers during the afternoon before
dwindling during the evening hours. Temperatures during the day
on Monday will continue to be on the cooler side, with highs in
the 60s to low 70s. Overnight lows will be near seasonal, with
temperatures in the mid 40s to mid 50s.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
As of 344 AM EDT Saturday...A break in the unsettled pattern
can be expected for mid-week as the closed upper low pushes away
and a period of surface high pressure builds across the region.
Cooler temperatures will trend towards seasonal normals, with
highs on Tuesday in the mid to upper 70s before warming into the
upper 70s to lower 80s for the second half of next week.
Overnight low temperatures will largely be in the 50s for most
of next week. Unsettled conditions will return as another upper-
level trough swings through, although there is still plenty of
uncertainty regarding timing so largely stuck to NBM guidance
with some chances for precipitation starting Thursday into next
weekend.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Through 06Z Sunday...MVFR ceilings currently at SLK and RUT
from showers that are continuing in parts of the area and
lingering moisture. VFR and isolated to scattered showers return
after sunrise today, but are not expected to result in a
reduction in visibility or ceilings below VFR. Winds will
generally be southwest at less than 10kts through 12z, before
turning south- southwest or westerly with gusts up to 20 kt at
times after 15z.
