<div>1. DISCUSSION AND FORECAST FOR NORTHEAST FORECAST AREA ZONES 630-638</div>
<div> </div>
<div style="padding-left: 36pt; ">Upper level ridge has built over the region bringing a dry and mostly sunny day. A warm front will ride over the top of the ridge and bring some increasing clouds tonight and Sunday. Expect another fair day with variable
clouds tomorrow under the stable ridge pattern. Smoke dispersion will be poor to fair.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> OUTLOOK (MONDAY - WEDNESDAY):</div>
<div> </div>
<div style="padding-left: 36pt; ">Upper ridge slides to the east on Monday but trough and next cold front will remain offshore for another day before moving in late Tuesday. Wind flow will get quite brisk on Monday and Tuesday prior to the front moving in.
This will mix out the air mass and make for good to excellent smoke dispersion. Upper level trough moves through on Wednesday.</div>
