1.   As a result, clouds and snow showers will persist in the mountains of northern New England as Atlantic moisture wraps inland around the stagnant area of low pressure.

2.   As Atlantic moisture is drawn inland, patches of heavy rain will develop from the central Appalachians to New England.

3.   A freshening breeze from the southeast will direct large amounts of Atlantic moisture inland.

4.   A few areas of locally heavy rain will occur, especially in southern and central New England, where Atlantic moisture is drawn inland.

5.   A cluster of showers and thunderstorms will cover the Florida peninsula and the Southeast coast as breezes from the east and southeast direct copious Atlantic moisture into the region.

6.   A May snowstorm blanketed mountain peaks in northern New England Wednesday as a low-pressure system intensifying over the Gulf of Maine circulated Atlantic moisture far inland.

7.   But its circulation will remain relatively flat, limiting how far inland Atlantic moisture will be able to penetrate.

8.   Clouds will obscure the sun in most places due to Atlantic moisture flowing inland, but rain is not expected.

9.   Gusty onshore winds will draw Atlantic moisture into the southern Appalachians.

10.   In advance of the front, Atlantic moisture will be drawn north into Maine, causing some snow inland and rain along the coast in the morning.
