Morning Forecast March 27, 2026

Good morning. From the Fairbanks Museum in St. John'sbury, welcome to this morning's

edition of an Eye on the Sky. A weatherfront stalled through Southern Quebec yesterday with

most of the region enjoying a surge of spring like 50s and 60s and some sunshine, however,

our northernmost counties held in the 40s with some 30s in Quebec. A wave of low pressure

on the front steered a period of rain over its late yesterday and last night most locations

picking up a quarter to a half an inch a little less than some of the valleys before drawing

the front southward as a cold front overnight. The exiting moisture only had limited time

to change back to some snow as temperatures dropped sharply behind the front, ranging

from the 20s in the north and still near or above freezing in southern areas in the 30s.

The front, finishing its push now through southern New England and heading off the coast,

makes way for high pressure building in on some gusty north and northwest winds. It'll

keep readings mostly in the 20s, north and some low 30s in the deeper valleys, temperatures

mostly in the 30s in southern areas. The main center of this area of high pressure still

sits well to our west over Montana and North Dakota and will progress southeast into the

Ohio Valley tomorrow. This is far enough to our west and south to permit some minor disturbances

to slip through, meaning our clear evening will mix with some clouds in the north later

tonight, perhaps preventing temperatures from bottoming out even lower. As it is, teens

and some single digits will be cold enough by tomorrow morning. The periods of clouds will

be mixed with sun to start out the weekend tomorrow, no doubt the north-westernly air flow

will keep us chilly tomorrow, temperatures struggling back into the 20s, north and 30s

south, with the high to our south Saturday night and the coldest air passing to our north

and east, another minor disturbance develops, with slightly milder air waiting to return

on Sunday. Periods of clouds and a few snow showers are possible Saturday night into Sunday morning

in northern areas, mostly across the higher terrain, followed by periods of sun and a bit of

moderation to the cold on Sunday, in the upper 30s and 40s not exactly warm but part of a warming

trend that continues into next week. The remainder of the cold high drifts east and south out to

see Sunday night making room for a storm running by to our north on Monday. A few spotty snow or

rain showers are possible in northern areas Sunday night, mostly tapering off as the milder air

brings readings into the 40s northeast and 50s southwest Monday afternoon. A more organized

system approaches Tuesday bringing a rise in chance of rain showers and remaining mild as April

arrives for midweek. Getting back to the forecast details, any early morning snow showers or a few

sprinkles of rain will be ending, increasing sunshine, blustery and colder. Early highs in the

20s and low 30s north, 30s to low 40s south, steady or falling, northwest winds 10 to 15 miles per hour,

gusting to 25. Tonight clearing and cold, lows 5 to 15 north near zero in some of the cold spots

and in the teens to near 20s south, the winds will diminish to light and variable. Saturday,

periods of morning sun, mixing with more clouds in the afternoon, there could be a passing

snow shower in the Adirondacks. Highs tomorrow ranging from the low 20s to low 30s north to south,

along with the light northwest breeze. Periods of clouds Saturday night, a few snow showers

possible north, lows teens east and north of I 89 and 20 to 25 west and south, and then Sunday,

variable clouds and sun a bit milder. Highs 30s to near 40 northeast in the 40s south west with

the freshening southwest breeze. That's the weather story from the Fairbanks Museum in St. John

Spring. Make it a great day. High meteorologist Mark Breene with an eye on the sky.
