 Monday 's severe weather included two tornadoes.

 The National Weather Service confirmed a EF0  with maximum winds of 75 mph touched down near Limestone in Clarion County Pennsylvania. The tornado tracked almost a quarter of a mile with a width of 25 yards.

The National weather service also confirmed a EF1 tornado with winds of 110 miles an hour, Track Length of 2.4 miles with a maximum width of 600 yards, near the town of Great Valley in Western New York State. This high-end EF1 damaged several houses and uprooted many trees.

I guess there was another tornado Yesterday in Beekmantown in Clinton County New York. This was confirmed to be a EF0 with 75 mph winds. It had a track of half a mile with a width around 100 yards.

Here's a look at current surface chart and radar.

The surface chart and radar shows yesterday's cold front has pushed South and east with no rain anywhere across the region,As high pressure is setting up. The frontal boundary is up in Canada. So today will be mostly  dry and is gonna feature seasonal temperatures and  humidity. But the humidity will start increasing tonight and temperatures will stay mild. I can't rule out a few very isolated showers across northern New York state into new England, but those will be the exception to the rule.

The big issue today is going to be Canadian wildfire smoke. As the west to northwest flow brings it in out of western Canada. The smoke is gonna be like what we experienced over the weekend, it Will create breathing issues for hose who are sensitive. We could smell some of the smoke from time to time.

Smoke  will be overhead tomorrow as well, so there will be air quality issues. Tomorrow will also see the heat return. There will be a weak frontal boundary Beginning to drop out of Canada and hanging over New York state over into new England this could be the focus for a few isolated rain showers mainly  across the southern tier of New York State into far northern Pennsylvania. But the vast majority of us should be dry. Looking at the infrared satellite image we can see the clear skies past the Ohio Valley and Great Lakes. But it does show a disturbance in the Northern Plains that will become the focus of our weather here in the Northeast later this week. As for temperatures across the region, North of the boundary temperatures will be running seasonal with those  south of the boundary seeing above average temperatures.

Low pressure and a cold front will be approaching and dropping south on Friday. Rain and thunderstorms will be dropping south with the front. Rain and some thunderstorms Looks to drop south across most of New York State, Northern and central new England Late afternoon/evening on Friday could be heavy at times. The rain and thunderstorms look to make it into Boston,  New York city, Philadelphia Friday night, again rain could be heavy at times. scattered rain will continue on Saturday but it won't be a complete washout. Then for Sunday as the low pressure and cold front continue to drop south Much of New York state And new England should have a mainly dry Father's Day Sunday. But further south across Pennsylvania into the middle Atlantic Father's Day will likely still be experiencing scattered rain. As the front looks to stall over Southern Pennsylvania into central and southern New Jersey. Because of the stalled nature of the frontal boundary and disturbances rippling along it Monday and Tuesday will likely continue to be unsettled across parts of Pennsylvania and the  northern Middle Atlantic. Later Tuesday and Wednesday High pressure will be setting up overhead, keeping us mostly dry with seasonal temperatures. Then on Thursday another disturbance will be approaching.
