.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...

The warmest temperatures for most of the region look to occur
before sunrise. Widespread rain showers will develop by sunrise
across the regions moisture is lifted along a warm front to our
south. This will lead to evaporational and dynamical cooling
keeping temperatures steady in the 40`s. Temperatures at the
highest peaks in the Western Catskills and NEPA Locations near
and the NY Thruway look to be on the northern edge of the
showers allowing temperatures to be a few degrees warmer.

Model QPF continues to trend higher as well. Mesoscale models
Indicate a fairly robust area of more than an inch of rainfall
now from the Finger Lakes into the Southern Tier and NEPA.
Eventhough forecasted totals have increased, flooding is not
expected. Conditions look to be fairly slow to clear out on
Sunday. With more sunshine, temperatures should trend warmer.

KEY MESSAGE 2...

Monday still looks like a pleasant day across the region with
high pressure in control. Mostly sunny skies are expected with
highs in the 60s. The next low pressure system has continued to
trend slightly slower, with an increasing chance of another
round of rain showers starting late in the day Tuesday or even
Tuesday night. Unsettled weather will likely continue Wednesday
and perhaps through the end of next week.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Rain and associated low ceilings and visbys continue to bring
MVFR to Fuel Alternate restrictions this afternoon, with
occasional IFR restrictions as well. This trend will continue
through the remainder of this afternoon into early this evening.
While rain showers will begin to taper off from west to east
this evening, lingering low level moisture will bring in more
widespread IFR restrictions overnight from low clouds and patchy
fog/mist. Slow improvement is expected by the late morning on
Sunday, with most terminals likely returning to VFR by 18Z.

Outlook:

Sunday afternoon through Monday...Mainly VFR expected.

Tuesday...Rain showers moving in from west to east with
associated restrictions, mainly in the late afternoon and at
night.

Wednesday through Thursday...Additional scattered showers and
associated restrictions possible.
