A Quickie

Once again the folks in Texas are screwing me up.  But I can certainly give you an accurate breakdown without them.

Another clear day today for the most part.  The high pressure blob that has been sitting on us for the last few days is moving off the coast today.  That means that the winds will switch around to the south/southwest and funnel in some warm, moist, southern air.  Later this afternoon a cold front drops down out of Quebec and stops about midway across upstate NY.  The combination of southerly flow, an oncoming (but not passing) cold front and a sunny day will drive temperatures up into the mid 80s, with higher humidities as well.  There is a bit of a chance for a random afternoon shower but it will most likely be found north of us.  Expect one more clear, warm day.

Tonight an advancing low pressure from the Great Lakes will bring in some showers and t-storms for early Wednesday morning.  Showers and t-storms are likely throughout Wednesday, but probably nothing severe as not all the elements are in place for a severe outbreak; but some nice stormies none the less.  Low pressure moves out Wednesday night followed by slightly cooler, drier air.  Notice I say "slightly".  No major changes.  That clearing should remain throughout the weekend as temperatures climb back into the mid/upper 80s for the weekend.

Today:  Sunny.  High 87.  Southwest winds @ 6-13mph.

Tonight:  Clouds move in.  Rain likely by morning.  Evening lows in the upper 70s; and only down to 64 by morning.  South winds @ 8-10mph.

Tomorrow:  Periods of rain and thunderstorms.  High 74. South winds @12-15mph.
