Forecast Discussion
Yesterdayâ€Ös barely noticeable cold front has pushed east and is stalling off the coast. High pressure will continue to build and then crest the region today, then sliding east and out to sea as a warm front begins to approach from the southwest. Skies will remain mostly sunny through much of the day with some upper level clouds moving in overhead. The clouds will be thin so plenty of sunshine will still make it through. Clouds will continue to thicken and lower this evening and the summits will eventually become obscured by fog later tonight. Precipitation will begin to fall overnight starting out at rain showers and transitioning to rain. There is some pretty big timing differences with the models still at this point so it is hard to nail down the time that precipitation will start at this point. The GFS brings rain into the region 3-6 hours ahead of the NAM. Regardless it should be a wet and dreary morning tomorrow. The aforementioned warm front will stall south of the White Mountains and an area of low pressure will ride along this boundary bringing unsettled weather for the weekend. There is even the chance of thunderstorms tomorrow afternoon and evening. Vertical soundings are indicating a max in vertical velocity during this timeframe. Increasingly unstable air works into the region tomorrow evening as the low passes through the area and CAPE values being to increase. At the moment it is not looking like blockbuster severe storms however being caught in a thunderstorm above treeline can make any storm seem overly severe. We should remain on the colder side of the warm front but if it does nudge farther northward we would potentially be in the warm sector where there is even more unstable air to work with.
