.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
Adjusted temperatures slightly lower tonight to account for
clearing skies and light winds. Otherwise, only minor
adjustments were made to overnight lows as developing
southwesterly flow may hinder radiational cooling.

&&

.KEY MESSAGES...
1) Cool and mostly sunny today with another chilly night
expected mainly east of I-81 with frost potential.

2) Fairly quiet rest of the week with a weak trough mid-week
followed by more high pressure for the weekend.

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...

A frost advisory remains in effect early this morning for
Bradford, Susquehanna, and Wyoming counties, where winds are
lighter and skies have mostly cleared. Elsewhere, cloud cover
remains across central NY with northwest flow off Lake America
and lingering wind guests helping to mitigate frost formation.
High pressure moves overhead today, bringing mostly sunny skies
and northwest flow. Temperatures remain cool, with highs only
reaching the low to upper 50s. Winds will be lighter than
yesterday, generally under 10 knots with gusts up to 15 knots.

A ridge axis begins to nudge into the region this evening and
overnight, allowing winds to shift southwesterly. Despite clear skies
and lighter winds warm air advection should keep temperatures
from falling near freezing. Cold air will remain entrenched for
one more night across areas mainly east of I-81, where widespread
mid to upper 30s are expected. Farther west and into the
Wyoming Valley, continued warm air advection should keep
temperatures in the low 40s.

KEY MESSAGE 2...

Southwesterly flow continues to advect warmer air into the
region Wednesday and Thursday, with highs in the mid to upper
60s and lows generally in the 40s. Otherwise, fairly quiet and
mostly dry weather is expected through most of the week. A weak
shortwave trough looks to move through Wednesday night into
Thursday, bringing a chance for rain showers, mainly across
north central NY. A cold front associated with the
aforementioned through will bring cooler temperatures Friday and
Saturday, with highs in the upper 50s to mid 60s, though
conditions should remain dry. High pressure then builds back
into the region for the weekend, with temperatures rebounding
into the mid 60s to low 70s by Sunday.

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Cool and dry conditions continue this afternoon through tonight.
VFR conditions are expected at most terminals, though ELM has a
small chance at seeing some fog develop towards sunrise. Winds
will likely go calm tonight giving a brief window to ELM though
with how dry it is currently, confidence was not there to go
predominant IFR.

Tomorrow will be VFR at all terminals once again.

Outlook...

Wednesday...Mainly VFR.

Thursday...Cold front with a few showers but should stay mainly
VFR.

Friday through Sunday...High pressure, mainly VFR.
