· Transition day today…with our weather a little warmer and a little less cloudy but still influenced by a weather system spinning away to our northeast with lots of clouds dropping in on a northwest flow from Canada.

· A beautiful break develops later tonight into the day on Saturday – great day for recreational opportunities Saturday…though increasingly humid later in the day and Saturday night.

· Humidity pools up ahead of the next potent frontal system to trigger showers and possible thunderstorms…though sketchy, there could be a pretty good light show of some of us.

· Sunday a transition back to very chilly unsettled April like weather through the day. Also gusty northwest winds with a shower threat redeveloping after a morning round of showers. Timing on details in flux a bit – so lowered confidence.

Default position of lower pressure centered over Quebec will pin-wheel numerous small disturbances and low level moisture ramming up against the Green Mountains – something you see mostly in spring and winter – not to much in June.

This is part and parcel due to high latitude blocking and numerous blocks in the northern hemispheric weather pattern at large.

Unblocking of this weather pattern takes place around June 20th-22nd. Until then it will be a mighty chilly weather pattern frequented by small weather system diving down from northern Canada, while it heats up across the rest of the lower 48 United State.
