553 FXUS61 KBTV 011735 AFDBTV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Burlington VT 135 PM EDT Tue Jul 1 2025 .SYNOPSIS... Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue throughout much of today as a series of fronts traverse the region. Dry weather prevails through Wednesday before shower chances increase later this week, with seasonable temperatures throughout the week. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... As of 213 AM EDT Tuesday...Several rounds of showers and thunderstorms will be possible this morning into the afternoon as a series of fronts traverse across the region. Currently, a warm front continues to push through, with areas of showers across the region this morning with the cold front expected to arrive later this afternoon. While several rounds of showers are expected, there is still some uncertainty as to if skies will clear ahead of the cold front and how much instability will be available later this afternoon for convective development. A few SPC continues to maintain a Marginal Risk of severe weather across southern portions of the forecast area, with a few stronger storms possible. Behind the cold front, cooler and drier conditions will filter into the region as winds become more northwesterly. Overnight low temperatures look to remain in the upper 50s to lower 60s across the region, with portions of the broader valleys dropping into the mid 60s. The cooler and drier conditions will continue into Wednesday, with a brief period of high pressure nosing into the region. High temperatures Wednesday will warm into the 80s, with mostly sunny skies expected by the afternoon making for a pleasant day across the region. && .SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/... As of 213 AM EDT Tuesday...Wednesday night and Thursday will feature some showers with possible thunderstorms as an upper level trough crosses the area along with upper level shortwave energy as well. Minimum temperatures will range from the mid 50s to mid 60s Wednesday night followed by maximum temperatures ranging from the mid 70s to mid 80s on Thursday. Best chance for showers will be during the day Thursday with best vorticity advection during that time, and with daytime heating will have some modest instability and have mention of thunderstorms as well. As upper level trough moves into our area, a cold core aloft will be over head and this will not be favorable for strong to severe storms. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/... As of 213 AM EDT Tuesday...Thursday night onwards will start out with below normal temperatures, but trend back above normal Saturday through Monday. Showers will diminish Thursday evening as the shortwave passes to the east and we lose daytime heating. Surface high pressure begins to build in on Friday and bring an end to the rain chances. Dry weather should prevail through Saturday before shower chances increase for Sunday. && .AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... Through 18Z WEDNESDAY...Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms will persist through 22z this afternoon. Generally anticipate VFR conditions outside of any precipitation, but MVFR ceilings/visibility will be possible in showers. Low clouds should mostly dissipate after sunset, with mid/high clouds to remain most persistent in southern areas. Patchy fog will be possible late tonight/early Wednesday. Confidence was not high enough to include in the TAF at this time, but best chances for any restrictions would be at KMPV. Southwest winds 5-10 kt with gusts 15-20 kt this afternoon, then gusts subsiding after sunset. Outlook... Wednesday Night: VFR. NO SIG WX. Thursday: VFR. Chance SHRA, Slight chance TSRA. Thursday Night: VFR. NO SIG WX. Independence Day: VFR. NO SIG WX. Friday Night: VFR. NO SIG WX. Saturday: VFR. NO SIG WX. Saturday Night: VFR. Chance SHRA, Slight chance TSRA. Sunday: VFR.
