Forecast Discussion:
Cloudiness still plagues the area from an intense nor’easter that’s affecting
the Canadian Maritimes. Meanwhile, ridge of high pressure extends from northern
Quebec to the southeast United States. Satellite imagery reveals the back edge
of the clouds is slowly eroding eastward from central upstate New York. We will
see this clearing trend work into the Northeast Kingdom tonight. The ridge
crests over the region Saturday morning. Warmer air will flow northward on the
back side of the ridge during Saturday. Clouds will also be on the increase
during the time before a weak trough brushes by the area Saturday night. By
Sunday the ridge rebuilds into the northeast and the pleasant autumn weather
continues.
