After the sunny and mild day today low pressure is approaching from the south this evening. Rain will arrive in the region by daybreak and spread from south to north. Look for a steady light rain most of the day tomorrow along with a brisk northeast wind and very chilly temperatures - no better than 5C in Montreal. There is even the risk of some wet snow in the higher elevations of New York, Vermont and New Hampshire. Speaking of the US, I know there are many readers from the North Country, as well as those who travel there or have property in Vermont and New York. The following was posted by the National Weather Service in Vermont regarding flooding along Lake Champlain:
