DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 8-12)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A moderate to strong blocking pattern will keep a ridge of high pressure parked over our area for the next 3 days, resulting in nice spring weather. With a general light northerly to variable air flow, expect daily sea breezes and cooler conditions in coastal areas while inland locations see a slow daily warming trend. By Sunday and Monday, the block will have weakened enough to allow features to move from west to east once again, but this means the first of a series of low pressure areas will begin to impact the region on Sunday when rain chances increase. How much rain is able to get into the region Sunday will depend on how much dry air there is to battle. While I’m not seeing anything that resembles a heavy rain event, I do expect it to be rather overcast and damp with some rain Sunday into Monday. Any rain we can get will be welcomed as we are running a precipitation deficit of a few to several inches for the year-to-date, are teetering on the edge of a drought again, and continue to see high fire danger with dry ground and the area still pre-leafout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 13-17)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What was once the western trough of an omega block will likely become the eastern trough of a newly formed omega block during this period and will be over or just east off the East Coast during this period. For us this means no big warm ups but also not that cold, and somewhat unsettled weather, but more in the form of occasional showers with spokes of energy rotating about the larger upper level system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 18-22)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Only very little change to the overall pattern at most, with possibly a slow eastward drift to the overall set-up again, which may put our area back under a high pressure ridge with more dry weather, cool nights, cool coast & warm inland days. Confidence remains low on the forecast this far out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
