DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 24-28)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our stretch of pleasant days is behind us and now it’s time for some of the unsettled weather that spring is also known for. One low pressure that has been hanging around the US Southeast Coast is lifting out to the northeast now and will add a little bit of its moisture and air flow to our atmosphere ahead of a warm front, which is parented by a stronger low pressure area heading east northeastward from the Great Lakes to the St. Lawrence Valley, passing well north of our area through Thursday. First, the southern low \/ warm front combo will increase the cloudiness today and lead to a period of rain later this evening. The weakness of the low and its progression will allow the warm front to make it through, and put us nicely into the warm sector behind it on Thursday. The cold front trailing from the St. Lawrence Valley low leads to another low pressure area that will be intensifying as it heads into the Great Lakes. This will keep us in the warm air into Friday morning when a cold front trailing from the Great Lakes low will come through – rain showers ahead of it, drying behind it during Friday, although that will still be a fairly mild day as, typically for our area, the colder air will wait until a secondary trough passes through to really get into the region Friday night. This sets up a cooler and breezy but dry day Saturday between that departing low (which also exits via the St. Lawrence Valley \/ Canadian Maritimes) and high pressure in the Great Lakes. This high will come eastward across the region allowing for a chilly Saturday night, which probably would end up even colder if not for increasing clouds ahead of the next low pressure area. This low will also travel through the Great Lakes and pass north of our area, but will be an occluding system and moving fairly quickly, likely to bring wet weather back for a short but notable visit during Sunday. Weekend or not, we do need rain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (MARCH 29 \u2013 APRIL 2)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Windy\/colder possible rain or snow showers March 29 in the wake of intensifying but departing low pressure. High pressure moves in with fair weather for the last 2 days of March, starting chilly then moderating. Uncertainty to start April but a slower-moving frontal system may bring unsettled weather at some point during the first 2 days of the new month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 3-7)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Confidence lowers this far out but high pressure should be in control with fair weather and a warming trend to start, followed by unsettled and cooling weather.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
