Morning Forecast September 11, 2026

0:00Good morning. From the Fairbanks Museum in St. John'sbury, welcome to this morning's edition of an Eye on the Sky. All in all, yesterday proved to be a pleasant day in terms of outdoor plans and activities, though the West winds tended to be gusty at times. The sun made up for that afternoon readings reaching the upper 60s to mid-70s north, it reached the 70s to a few low 80s in the south. At the same time, a minor trailing system to our northwest marked the arrival of even cooler air. A couple of isolated showers and sprinkles were noted late yesterday and last evening, mostly from the Adirondacks and Route 4 north, followed by clearing skies. Of course, at the same time, a cold front settling southward did bring a few more clouds to southern areas, so temperatures this morning ranging a bit widely from the 40s to near 60 north to south. The northwest winds behind the fronts generally curtailed the formation of fog last night, now with that front stalled to our south high pressure, moving in from the Great Lakes, making for a sparkling sunny and refreshingly cool

1:02day to finish up the week. It appears eerily like that morning, 25 years ago, when terrorists flew planes into the Twin Towers in New York City, a third plane crashing into the Pentagon in Washington DC, the fourth, corroically downed in Pennsylvania by the passengers. With that area of high pressure residing over us tonight into Saturday morning, we're likely in for our Clues Night of the Month so far, even some 30s in the Cold Air Mountain valleys, which means frost can't be ruled out in those locations, although the chances are still quite low. For most of us, it just means a clear, starry chilly night, expected to be clear across the presidential range in New Hampshire as well, permitting our best views of the Twin Beams of Light in honor and remembrance of 9-11, 25 years ago. The clear skies should also result in the areas of dense valley fog, burning off by mid-morning to sunshine to open up the weekend tomorrow. During the day, Saturday, the area of high pressure weekends and heads east, while the weatherfront stalled to our south gets pulled back north

2:03as the storm over Hudson Bay in Canada pivots a cold front through Ontario and into the Great Lakes. This means the day tomorrow starts out sunny, giving way to some increasing clouds, especially west and south in the afternoon. That's all part of that same stalled front to our south, becoming a warm front and lifting back toward the north and the east. It'll also feature a minor storm along that front, so what'll happen is the storm tracking to our southeast will bring some scattered showers, Saturday night through the Hudson Valley and the northeast into Vermont in New Hampshire, mostly from Route 2 and southward, tapering off Sunday morning. Then, a cold front approaches later Sunday with warmer, more humid conditions in place, feeding a band of some broken showers, maybe even a few rumbles of thunder, mostly from the Adirondex and Route 4 north, Sunday afternoon into Sunday night. The showers then diminish and move off to the east later Sunday night, clearing skies and seasonal weather follows for early next week and possibly another chilly night,

3:03Monday night. Getting back to the forecast details? We've got sunshine, it'll be a cool day in the 60s north, closer to 70 degrees in the south, northwest winds around 10 mph, gusting up to 25 mph, east to the green mountains. Tonight, mostly clear and chilly areas of dense valley fog, lows in the 40s, some 30s in the cold air mountain valleys, isolated frost is possible in the coldest spots, winds diminishing to light and variable. Saturday, areas of dense valley fog burning off by mid-morning, sunshine mixing with increasing afternoon clouds through New York and south of I-89, warmer tomorrow, highs in the low to mid-70s, winds will be generally light from the south, but west to the green mountains, increasing up to 25 mph through the Champlain valley. Saturday night, periods of clouds, some scattered showers from the Hudson Valley northeast to about Route 2, milder, 50s to near 60, along with a gusty south wind, and then Sunday any morning showers, east and south tapering off periods of clouds, limited sun, scattered afternoon showers, mainly from the Adirondacks

4:08and Route 4 North, highs in the 70s, along with a gusty south and southwest breeze. That's the weather story from the Fairbanks Museum in St. John'sbury, make it a great day. I'm meteorologist Mark Brin, with an eye on the sky.
