.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
Sunday looking like the wettest day of the holiday weekend with 
drier days on either side.

&&

.KEY MESSAGES...

- Seasonable temps with scattered showers Thursday morning,
  lingering longest over CT, RI and SE MA. Dry and mild weather 
  continues Friday. 

- Cooler temperatures through Memorial Day Weekend. Unsettled
  weather returns for the weekend, but not a washout every day.
  Sunday is the wettest of the three days.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...Seasonable temps with scattered showers Thursday 
morning, lingering longest over CT, RI and SE MA. Dry and mild 
weather continues Friday. 

As the low pressure moves off into the North Atlantic, Thursday will 
be a transition between two starkly different airmasses. The post 
frontal airmass has arrived with cooler NW flow in place across SNE. 
High pressure over the Great Lakes will be slow to advance eastward 
over the next 24 hours as will the drier air it brings with it. We 
remain on the northern periphery of deeper moisture to our south. 
With zonal flow in the mid levels and a weak shortwave this morning 
we'll see a resurgence of light showers, lingering longest over CT, 
RI, and southeast MA through noon. By afternoon drier air sinks 
further south and skies will clear making way for a good radiational 
cooling night under high pressure so have leaned on MOS guidance for 
low temps. Expect plenty of sun Friday under strong subsidence, with 
highs in the upper 60s to low 70s (normal for late May). 

KEY MESSAGE 2...Cooler temperatures through Memorial Day Weekend. 
Unsettled weather returns for the weekend, but not a washout every 
day. Sunday is the wettest of the three days. 

Guidance is slowly coming into better agreement on the weather for 
the upcoming holiday weekend. While we continue to forecast a cooler 
than normal weekend with wet weather, the full three day weekend 
shouldn't be a washout. As it stands now, surface high pressure will 
be fighting to keep low pressure from the OH valley and its 
associated wet weather at bay as long as possible; this means the 
earlier in the day on Saturday the better chance we stay dry, it 
could even hold out for a fully dry Saturday, especially toward 
northeast/north central MA. Eventually the shortwave and wet weather 
move over SNE Saturday night/Sunday and this looks to be the most 
likely "washout" day before the low moves east of MA by Monday with 
drier air funneling in and making for a more pleasant day than 
Sunday. Sunday will also be breezy as a 25-35kt LLJ moves overhead. 
Temperatures bottom out on Sunday with highs in the upper 50s, 
warming into the upper 60s and 70s by Monday.
