Convective Discussion
Instability will persist over western areas today as an upper trough slowly exits the region. CAPE values are expected to remain modest, reaching around 1000 J/kg, with generally weak low-level shear and deep-layer shear staying below 25 knots across most of New Brunswick.
As a result, severe thunderstorms are unlikely. However, isolated cells may still produce small hail and locally heavy downpours.
Looking ahead to tomorrow, shear will increase somewhat, but the relatively cool airmass will limit the available energy for convection. Non-severe showers or thunderstorms may once again develop over western areas. With limited heating and only modest increases in dew points expected in the coming days, overall conditions are not anticipated to change significantly.
