Moisture in the form of mid and high cloudiness was squirting northward into the state, where a few showers were likely in the southern counties, slight threat as far north as Addison to Orange counties. This retreats in bulk overnight and then more sun develops on Saturday setting up the next string of excellent weather days into the middle of next week.
Over the next several days, sprawling high pressure across Canada edges out significant clouds and foul weather. Some of our best late-summer-like conditions were just around the corner, especially this weekend into the start of next week.
Some high elevation snow was advertised for most of the western mountain elevations and even into the northern high plains, and across northern Canada coast to coast with a hint of some early winter that kicks in later this week with reinforcement of new snows further eastward eventually into northern Quebec into the second week of October. With a strong El Nino this appears to be its opposite to start winter and should not be confused.
