124 PM EDT Sun Sep 28 2025
.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure is expected through the entire week, which will
bring a prolonged period of dry weather. Temperatures will be
well above normal to start the week, but will return to slightly
below normal by the middle of the week. There is potential for
some frost in sheltered valleys Wednesday and Thursday nights.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
120 PM Update:
High pressure continues to bring warm and sunny conditions this
afternoon. Then similar to last night, radiational cooling will
be present tonight. This will result in low temperatures mainly
in the 40s along with valley fog once again. Monday will be
another warm day with high temperatures a few degrees cooler,
but still in the upper 70s to near 80. Higher clouds streaming
in from tropical activity across the Southeast U.S. will result
in partly sunny skies, especially for Northeast PA. Farther to
the north across most of Central NY, Monday will remain mostly
sunny. These higher clouds will keep temperatures a bit warmer
Monday night with lows in the upper 40s to mid 50s.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
120 PM Update:
One more day with above normal temperatures is expected on
Tuesday (highs in the mid 70s to near 80), but a Canadian high
pressure system moving southward will bring near to below
normal temperatures beginning on Wednesday (highs in the mid 60s
to near 70). Otherwise, dry weather is expected to continue for
the entire period. Some frost is possible Wednesday night,
especially in the sheltered valleys. With the growing season
still active area-wide, it is possible that Frost Advisories
may be needed as we get closer. A few of the usual colder spots
(especially northern Oneida County) may have low temperatures
Wednesday night approach freezing.
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
120 PM Update:
The prolonged period of dry weather is expected to continue all
the way through next weekend as high pressure will be in
control. As this high pressure system moves to the east, a
southerly return flow will develop, and as a result, a
moderating trend in temperatures is expected by next weekend
after a couple of days with below normal temperatures.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
VFR conditions expected for all terminals (with exception to ELM
for fog) through the 18Z TAF period. Yet again, deep fog
development is possible, with LIFR conditions currently
expected, for ELM between 07Z and 13Z, and should burn off soon
after 13Z, similarly to this morning.
Outlook...
Monday through Friday...Mainly VFR, other than typical valley
fog formation especially KELM late each night through dawn each
morning.
