AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
315 PM EDT TUE JUN 28 2005

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY)...

WE REMAIN UNDER A VERY WEAK OVERALL WEATHER PATTERN ACROSS THE
EASTERN U.S.  SUBTLE SHORT WAVES EMBEDDED ALONG THE SOUTHERN
PERIPHERY OF THE UPPER LEVEL WESTERLIES WILL LIKELY CONTROL THE
WEATHER ACROSS WESTERN NEW YORK THROUGH THURSDAY.

WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOW A HINT OF A MOIST PLUME ASSOCIATED WITH A
VERY WEAK SHORT WAVE THAT HAS ALREADY MOVED THROUGH WNY.  ANOTHER
WAVE THAT APPEARS ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND IS ALSO REFLECTED IN
THE ETA 500MB PROG IS STRETCHED FROM THE EAST END OF GEORGIAN BAY
SOUTH THROUGH OHIO. THIS WAVE WILL CROSS INTO WNY AFTER 4PM AND IS
ALREADY RESPONSIBLE FOR TRIGGERING CONVECTION ALONG THE LAKE BREEZE
BOUNDARY OFF LAKE ERIE. THOSE CELLS PUSHED OUT AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY
TO THEIR EAST AND IT LOOKS AS THOUGH THAT REGION HAS BRIEFLY
STABILIZED BUT I STILL FEEL WE COULD SEE ANOTHER ROUND OF ACTIVITY
DEVELOP ALONG THE LAKE AS TEMPS REBOUND THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON. BY
LATE THIS EVENING MOST OF THE LOCALIZED CONVECTION WILL SETTLE DOWN
THOUGH ACTIVITY THAT IS FIRING IN OHIO VALLEY COULD SNEAK INTO OUR
SOUTHERN TIER LATER THIS EVENING. FINALLY, THAT WEAK SHORT WAVE
MENTIONED EARLIER SHOULD REMAIN STRETCHED ACROSS OUR REGION TONIGHT
SO I WILL KEEP MENTION OF PRECIPITATION IN FOR THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD.

ANOTHER SUBTLE WAVE EJECTING OUT OF THE LARGER TROUGH IN THE WEST
CURRENTLY OVER EASTERN IOWA DROPS INTO THE ERN RIDGE AND GET ALMOST
WASHED OUT ON WEDNESDAY.  I HAVE VERY LITTLE CONFIDENCE IN THE
EVOLUTION OF PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE CWA BASED ON MODEL DATA ON
WEDNESDAY AS WELL. HOWEVER IF I FOLLOW THE GENERAL TREND IN THE
MODEL GUIDANCE AND KEEP LATTER PART OF WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT
RAIN FREE.

THURSDAY LOOKS TO BE RAIN FREE FOR THE MOST PART ONCE AGAIN AS
TEMPERATURES REBOUND BACK INTO THE 90 DEGREE RANGE FOR ONE MORE DAY
AHEAD OF THE MAJOR SHORT WAVE ADVANCING FROM THE CANADIAN PRAIRIES.

THE BIG CHANGE WE HAVE BEEN ADVERTISING IN THE OVERALL WEATHER
PATTERN LOOKS LIKE IT WILL NOT OCCUR UNTIL FRIDAY MORNING AS A
RELATIVELY STRONG COLD FRONT FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR SWINGS
THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES. THE WIND FIELD ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER
LEVEL LOW THAT MOVES SOUTH OF JAMES BAY IS STRONG ENOUGH TO SUPPORT
HEFTY THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY NIGHT AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM.

FRIDAY IS THE BIG CHANGE AS 850MB TEMPS DROP FROM 16-18C DOWN TO 8C
BY EVENING OVER WNY. OVERALL FRIDAY SHOULD BE A MUCH MORE
COMFORTABLE DAY ACROSS THE REGION.

&&

.LONG TERM (FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)...

WILL BRING IN REALLY NICE COMFORTABLE WEATHER FOR THE WEEKEND AS WE
GET INTO A BIG CHANGE IN AIRMASS BEHIND THE COLD FRONT.  THERE IS A
SUGGESTION ON A SECONDARY SHORT WAVE ROTATING AROUND THE MAIN UPPER
LOW ACROSS THE EASTRN GREAT LAKES SATURDAY BUT FOR NOW I DO NOT
EXPECT ANY PRECIPITATION.  SUNDAY LOOKS GREAT AS WELL AS THE HOLIDAY
...THOUGH LATE IN THE DAY THE GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THE NEXT FRONT FROM
THE WEST APPROACHES WNY.  ALTHOUGH MOTHER NATURES FIREWORKS HAVE
BEEN PART OF OUR RECENT JULY 4TH HOLIDAYS I WILL STAY POSITIVE AND
KEEP ANY MENTION OF PRECIPITATION OUT FOR NOW THEN REINTRODUCE IT ON
TUESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...

LOOK FOR GENERALLY VFR CONDITIONS AT ALL SITES INTO THIS
EVENING...WITH CONDITIONS LOWERING TO MVFR IN HAZE AFTER 00Z.
SCATTERED CONVECTION WILL OCCUR LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY THIS
EVENING...WITH A FEW RUNNING ALONG THE LAKE BREEZE BOUNDARY SOUTH
AND EAST OF BUFFALO THROUGH 23Z. A MORE GENERAL AREA OF SHOWERS IS
POSSIBLE LATER TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY MORNING WHICH WILL LOWER
CONDITIONS TO IFR AT TIMES.

&&

.MARINE...

WINDS WILL TEND LIGHT SOUTHERLY TONIGHT AND THEN VEER TO WESTERLY
DURING WEDNESDAY AFTER A TROF PASSES. WINDS WILL BACK TO SOUTHWEST
AGAIN DURING THURSDAY. SPEEDS WILL BE LIGHT.

&&

.CLIMO...

MERCURY HAS REACHED 93 AGAIN TODAY AT BUF...JUST SHY OF 95 RECORD.
THIS MAKES 3 CONSEC 90+ DAYS AT BUF...OUR FIRST OFFICIAL HEAT WAVE
(3 CONSEC DAYS OR MORE OF 90 PLUS) SINCE JUNE 1994.
