Key Messages:

Temps are generally in the upper 50s/lower 60s across higher elevations, and mid/upper 60s in valleys. Max temps will likely reach around 70 for many valley areas this afternoon, with mainly lower/mid 60s across higher terrain.
With the cool/dry air mass in place and the core of high pressure approaching with light/calm winds tonight, temps should drop off to levels around 2-3F degrees lower than last night toward daybreak. This should allow min temps to drop into the lower/mid 30s across the eastern Catskills, Schoharie County and SW Adirondacks, with patchy/areas of frost developing. The previous frost advisory has been expanded to include the eastern Catskill region. Some patchy frost can not be ruled out even in some areas north and east of the frost advisory, such as across the southeast Adirondacks and southern VT, however coverage should remain more limited in these areas. Elsewhere, expect min temps to drop into the upper 30s to lower/mid 40s.
