A large upper low pressure system over Ontario and the remnants of the unnamed Florida tropical storm are creating a soggy Friday over New England.
 |
| A strong 988mb low over the Great Lakes will usher in windy but drier conditions with seasonable temperatures for the weekend in southern New England. This low will deepen to around 970mb! |
This low with compacted isobars (lines of equal pressure) as seen on the map above will move eastward Friday night bringing the chance of Thunderstorms associated with a cold front that are seen over PA and NY. Once the front passes the wind will shift to the west and northwest creating a very breezy day.
 |
| The low has a lot of clouds associated with it. Here in southern New England, we should get into the clearing that is seen over NJ and VA for the day on Saturday and Sunday, while northern VT and NH and Maine will see more clouds. |
 |
| Saturday and Sunday will be quite windy. Peak winds speeds are shown in MPH, with gusts up to 35 mph expected along the Cape and Islands, 30 mph along the immediate coastline of MA. A whopping 125 mph atop Mt. Washington in NH and just of note, an intense 60mph wind on Lake Erie, which will likely cause a major seiche! The piling up of water on one end of the lake, as much as 3 feet, almost like a storm surge. |
Sun will fade behind clouds again later on Sunday as the back edge of the low moves through.
A coastal storm will threaten Wednesday into Thursday with rain and wind again. Snow in the highest elevations.
