AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
425 PM EDT WED JUN 8 2005

.SYNOPSIS...FRONT THAT DIPPED INTO THE REGION LAST NIGHT WILL BE
STALLED NEAR THE MOHAWK VALLEY MUCH OF TODAY. 500 HPA LOW OVER
NRN QUEBEC. REMAINS OF ONE MCS FROM THE MIDWEST JUST NORTH OF LAKE
ONTARIO WITH SECOND MCS ASSOCIATED WITH FRONTAL SYSTEM WEST OF LAKE
MICHIGAN.

.SHORT TERM (THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY)...ANOTHER ACTIVE
DAY EXPECTED ACROSS THE ALY CWA THIS AFTERNOON WILL CONTINUE INTO
THE EVENING HOURS. HEAVIEST PRECIP POTENTIAL APPEARS TO BE DOWN
THE MOHAWK VALLEY EAST INTO SOUTHERN VERMONT WITH MOST OF THE
PRECIP THIS EVENING. THE MAIN BAND OF PRECIP ON THE NAM40 MODEL
WAS FROM THE NORTHERN MOHAWK VALLEY EAST TO CENTRAL VERMONT
DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON. THIS BAND DROPS FARTHER SOUTH WITH
AN AREAS OF 1.5 INCH AMOUNTS FROM ALBANY EAST ACROSS SOUTHERN
VERMONT BETWEEN 00Z AND 03Z...THEN DRIFTS ABOUT 20 TO 30 MILES
FARTHER SOUTH BETWEEN 03Z AND 06Z. PRECIP AMOUNTS DIMINISH RAPIDLY
AFTER 06Z...THEN APPEARS TO BE MOSTLY AIR MASS TYPE ACTIVITY
FRIDAY AS THE WARM AIR RETURNS OVER OUR AREA. GFS QPF AMOUNTS
ARE FAR MORE CONSERVATIVE WITH ONLY 0.10 TO 0.25 INCH AND MOSTLY
NORTH OF THE MOHAWK VALLEY. STEERING WINDS THIS EVENING ARE
GENERALLY WESTERLY 25 TO 30 KNOTS SO TRAINING OF HP CELLS
ALONG THE FRONT COULD POSE A THREAT OF URBAN FLOODING SHOULD
THEY OCCUR OVER AN AREA LIKE THE CAPITAL DISTRICT WHERE LARGE
AREAS HAVE BEEN PAVED OVER. FOR FRIDAY IT APPEARS THE GFS SHOWS
BETTER DEPICTION OF THE PRECIP ALTHOUGH THE PRECIP WILL BE AIR MASS
TYPE CONVECTION...AND AMOUNTS LIKELY TO VARY A GREAT DEAL OVER SHORT
DISTANCES. THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR A ONE TWO EFFECT SHOULD THOSE
CELLS MOVE SLOWLY OR BACK PROPAGATE OVER AN AREA THAT RECEIVES
HEAVY RAIN TONIGHT. REGARDING TEMPERATURES...OVERNIGHT THE 12Z
NAM A BIT WARMER THAN THE 06Z GFS...BUT ONLY SLIGHTLY SO. THE
REAL DIFFERENCE IS FOR FRIDAY WHEN THE 12Z ETA MOS GIVES US A
MAX OF 91 WITH DEW POINTS IN THE UPPER 60S...A REAL STEAMER.
THE GFS GIVES US A MUCH MORE TOLERABLE 83...BUT FEEL WE WILL
PROBABLY COME UP SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN. A LOT WILL DEPEND ON CLOUD
COVER...AND HIGH DEWPOINTS WILL HOPEFULLY FAVOR A LOT OF FAIR
WEATHER CU TO FORM EARLY...REDUCING HEATING FROM THE SUN...AND
THUS GIVING US A BIT COOLER MIDDAY AND AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES.
&&

.LONG TERM (FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY)...NEARLY CLASSIC BERMUDA
HIGH FORMS OVER THE REGION AS SURFACE HIGH FORMS OFF CAPE HATTERAS
ON FRIDAY AND IS SUPPORTED BY A 500 HPA HIGH ALOFT. THE BERMUDA HIGH
HANGS TOUGH THROUGH TUESDAY...WITH TYPICAL THREAT OF AIR-MASS TYPE
CONVECTION DURING THE AFTERNOONS AND EVENINGS...AND HAZE/FOG IN
THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. LOOKS LIKE RELIEF COMES TUESDAY NIGHT
WITH POSSIBLY AN INCREASED CONVECTION THREAT TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. WITH THE FRONT THROUGH ON WED...WILL EXPECT MUCH MORE
PLEASANT WEATHER WITH COOLER TEMPS AND LOWER HUMIDITY.
&&

.AVIATION...
VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL FOR MUCH OF THE PERIOD THROUGH THURSDAY
AFTERNOON. THERE WILL BE AREAS OF MVFR AND IFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THIS
EVENING IN SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AND IN AREAS OF FOG
BETWEEN ABOUT 08Z AND 13Z. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL REDEVELOP
AGAIN THURSDAY AFTERNOON AS HEATING TAKES HOLD.
&&

.HYDROLOGY...RIVERS...STREAMS AND RESERVOIRS ARE BELOW NORMAL AND
FLOWS ARE MORE TYPICAL OF MID JULY. WITH FAIRLY HIGH FFG VALUES
THE MAIN HYDRO THREAT WILL BE TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS OVER SMALL
AREAS...WITH TRAINING OF HP CELLS THE MAIN THREAT LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING...AND SLOW MOVING OR BACK PROPAGATING
AIR MASS TSTMS TOMORROW THRU NEXT TUESDAY WHICH IS CHARACTERISTIC
OF MARITIME TROPICAL AIR FROM THE GULF AND SOUTH ATLANTIC. MUCH
OF THE PRECIP WILL GO INTO THE GROUND IN THE WOODS AND RURAL
AREAS...BUT FLOODING OF STREETS AND PARKING AREAS MAY BE EXPECTED
WHEN HEAVY PRECIP FALLS IN A SHORT TIME.
