Higher Summits Forecast

A stationary frontal boundary will remain over the US-Canadian border over the forecast period. A series of weak areas of low pressure will ride along this front keeping things unsettled for the next 36 hours if not longer as models keep this feature into the middle of next week. A band of showers and thunderstorms is approaching on radar this morning and will sweep through this morning shortly after sunrise which will be followed by convective cells that will continue to generate as conditions are primed for their development. Some things making them primed according to the models are increased cape, winds increasing with height and plenty of warm, moist air. Overnight, convective cells will die down a bit as diurnal lifting is cut off but unsettled conditions will keep isolated cells going through the night. Tomorrow, the morning may see a bit of a break but another area of low pressure will approach from the Great Lakes bring showers and thunderstorms back to the summits especially during the latter half. Convective cells the next 36 hours may contain heavy rain, hail, gusty winds and frequent lightning.
