.....LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...

......Longer range models seem to be in better agreement with a

potentially sig low pres system from the OH Vly/Mid Atlc states

on Mon/Mon eve advcg toward the FA. PoPs were increased to hi

chc, with precip type looking to be mainly sn, but a mix alg the

coast cannot be ruled out if the track of the low is far enough

W to apch the Downeast coast. Behind this system, steady sn will

taper to sct sn shwrs late Mon ngt and cont into Tue, spcly

across the N.
