** including Caledonia, Orleans, and Essex Counties **

Forecast Discussion:
High pressure that's currently over Nova Scotia will move towards New Brunsiwck
through Saturday. This feature has protected us from the strong nor'easter that
has been battering the Mid-Atlantic coast since midweek. With the high moving
east, we'll see moisture from the storm system slowly advance northward through
New England throughout today and tomorrow. Fortunately, the storm itself is
forecast to remain hundreds of miles southeast of New England while it decays;
However, moisture will peel off the storm and showers could start moving into
the region as soon as Saturday afternoon. Showers will become more numerous
Saturday night as a moist southeast flow draws moisture from the Atlantic.
Sunday looks to remain cloudy but warmer ahead of the arrival of the next cold
front Sunday night. More seasonable temperatures and sunny skies return to the
Northeast Kingdom to start the week as high pressure builds in from the west.
