bringing fair weather and increasing temperatures through

night into Thursday with showers and thunderstorms lingering
into the weekend.

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
3 PM Update...
Still plenty of fair weather cu around the area this afternoon,
with partly to mostly cloudy skies prevailing. NW winds have
been a little breezy, gusting 20 to 25 mph at times.
Temperatures have generally been in the upper-60s to lower-70s,
though areas near and north of the Thruway have managed to warm
up into the mid-70s.

Clouds will dissipate quickly after sunset, and with high
pressure moving overhead, winds will become light and variable.
Temperatures look to drop into the upper-40s by dawn. Patchy
valley fog will be possible along the Susquehanna, especially
the upper tributaries.

tomorrow (Tuesday), with highs returning to the 80s. The period
will remain precip-free.

Wednesday should remain dry as high pressure squeezes out one
more nicer day before a weak frontal boundary moves through on
Independence day. Chances for showers and storms are possible
for the holiday. The chance for any storms to become severe is
low due to lack of instability. Temperatures will be in the
mid-80s for Wednesday and Thursday.

Another weak system will continue giving chances for showers and
storms for Friday and Saturday, with a break heading into next

period, with temperatures will be summerlike in the low- to
high-80s.
