KEY MESSAGE 1...Warm and dry weather is expected today. The next chance for showers is Friday afternoon across the north and Saturday for the rest of the area as a cold front approaches.

KEY MESSAGE 1 DESCRIPTION... A cold front will be approaching from the north today but a wave develops along it and hangs it up just to our north. Most of the clouds and associated precipitation appears to be anafrontal with max heating occurring before clouds move in. This may bring the warmest temps of the year in some locations, with other locations rivaling temps from May 20th of this year in the middle to upper 80s.

Dry weather expected into Friday afternoon as subsidence with ridge is the dominant feature. Weak low pressure moves in Friday afternoon and with instability present along with fairly steep low-level lapse rates cannot rule out isolated thunder, mainly toward the Central Highlands. Potential for organized storms looks slim to none and will be more of the pulse variety.

The next low pressure system approaches late Friday which may lead to a few showers and thunderstorm but overall coverage and intensity will be limited by dry air associated with high pressure just to the east. The most significant chance for showers and thunderstorms is Saturday and Saturday night as the cold front of the low approaches from the west. The showery nature of the system will mean precipitation will be more hit or miss, but relatively high atmospheric moisture content for this time of year, near the 95th percentile, means some showers and thunderstorms may produce some brief heavy rain. Limited chance for storms overall but greatest chance is over central and western areas during the day on Saturday and Downeast Saturday night. Severe storms are not expected as limited instability means any storms will likely be relatively weak.

Marine
