AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE UPTON NY
342 PM EDT FRI JUL 21 2006
.NEAR TERM (TONIGHT)...
UPPER TROUGH NEARLY STATIONARY WITH LARGE RIDGE REMAINING STATIONARY
OUT WEST.
WITH COLD FRONT SLOWLY MAKING ITS WAY TOWARD AREA FROM THE NORTH AND
WEST...EXPECT DAYTIME HEATING AND INSTABILITY TSTMS TO SLOWLY
DIMINISH IN COVERAGE LATER THIS EVENING. VERY WARM AND HUMID AIRMASS
IN PLACE...BUT FOCUSING MECHANISM HARD TO FIND LATER TONIGHT. COULD
BE SOME LOCALIZED URBAN TYPE FLOODING CONCERNS THIS EVENING. MOS
POPS DO DROP DOWN TO LOW CHC AFTER MIDNIGHT...AND WILL HAVE GRIDS
REFLECT THIS.
MOS TEMPS QUITE CLOSE IN THIS STAGNANT AIRMASS AND WILL BE
FOLLOWED.
&&
.SHORT TERM (SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY)...
WESTERN RIDGE SLOWLY FLATTENS THIS TIME FRAME...AND EASTERN TROUGH
DOES THE SAME AS WESTERLIES PUSH NORTHWARD. AT THE SURFACE...LOW
PRESSURE RIDES ALONG FRONT...AND LOW CHANCE POPS INCREASE TO
LIKELY/CAT LATE IN THE DAY SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT. RIGHT
NOW...MODELS DIFFER A BIT ON LOW PRESSURE TRACK AND SPEED. MAIN
DIFFERENCE CONCERNS THE TIMING AND TRACK OF LOW ALONG THE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY FROM THE OH VALLEY TO NEW ENG. PER HPC ANALYSIS...THE GFS
IS FASTER AND NW OF THE 12Z NAM AND 00Z ECMWF. TRENDS FAVOR THE
FASTER AND MORE EASTERLY TRACK WHICH IS CLOSE TO UKMET AND CAN.
EITHER WAY...LOOKING AT INCREASING POPS SATURDAY...THEN SOME DRYING
LATER SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY AS LOW PASSES TO THE NORTH THEN EAST.
RIDGE NOSES IN SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY...AND WILL KEEP FORECAST
DRY.
AGAIN...MODEL BLEND ACCEPTED FOR TEMPS THIS TIME FRAME AS THEY ARE
VERY CLOSE.
&&
.LONG TERM (MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY)...
MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING APPEAR TO BE DRY AS HIGH PRESSURE
REMAINS OVER THE REGION. BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON HIGH PRESSURE MOVES
AWAY AND A COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE REGION. FOR NOW...HAVE GONE
SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR TUES AFTERNOON AND TUES NIGHT. THE THREAT OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE END OF THE
EXTENDED PERIOD AS A COLD FRONT REMAINS NEAR THE REGION. HIGH
TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR NORMAL AS HIGHS CLIMB INTO THE MIDDLE 80S
AND LOWS DROP TO NEAR 70 AT NIGHT.
&&
.AVIATION...
VFR/MVFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED FOR THE TAF PERIOD. SCATTERED SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE ACROSS TERMINALS THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING RESULTING IN SOME TAF TO DROP DOWN TO MVFR AND POSSIBLY EVEN
TO IFR FOR A BRIEF PERIOD. ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP WILL BE
CAPABLE OF HEAVY DOWNPOURS AND LIGHTNING. THESE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE COURTESY OF A COLD FRONT THAT WILL SLIDE OVER THE
REGION AND EVENTUALLY STALL JUST SOUTH OF AREA OVERNIGHT. AS THE
FRONT STALLS...A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE WILL SLIDE NORTHWARD ALONG THE
FRONT PROVIDING TERMINALS WITH RAINFALL...LOCALLY HEAVY AT
TIMES...DURING THE DAY ON SATURDAY. CIGS AND VSBYS MAY DROP TO MVFR
OR EVEN IFR IN SOME OF THE HEAVIER SHOWERS TOMORROW.
&&
.MARINE...
A COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE WEST WILL STALL OUT JUST W OF THE
WATERS TONIGHT AND REMAIN NEARLY STATIONARY THROUGH THE WEEKEND. AS
A RESULT...A PERSISTENT AND INCREASING SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL PREVAIL
AS WAVES OF LOW PRESSURE DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT AND MOVE TO THE
NORTHEAST.
WILL KEEP SCA AS IS FOR OCEAN WATERS FROM FIRE ISLAND INLET
EAST...ALTHOUGH SEAS MAY TEETER BETWEEN 4 AND 5 FT TONIGHT BEFORE
THEY RISE ABOVE SCA LEVELS BY SAT MORNING. SCA WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED
FOR ALL OCEAN ZONES TOMORROW NIGHT FOR BOTH WINDS AND SEAS...BUT
THAT WILL BE PUT UP ON THE MID SHIFT. AS THE GRADIENT INCREASES ON
SAT...WINDS WILL ALSO INCREASE...AND LIKELY REACH SCA LEVELS SAT
NIGHT AND SUN. THE FRONT WILL FINALLY PUSH EAST OF THE AREA SUN
NIGHT...BUT SEAS WILL TAKE A BIT TO SUBSIDE FROM WEST TO EAST. WEAK
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN BEHIND THE FRONT AND DOMINATES THROUGH TUE.
ANOTHER COLD FRONT A SFC TROUGH APPROACH FOR WED...ALTHOUGH
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW SCA LEVELS.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
PROXIMITY OF COLD FRONT AND ASSOCIATED WAVE WILL BRING POSSIBLE ONE
TO TWO INCHES OF RAINFALL TO SOME AREAS THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT.
SUNDAY SHOULD BE DRIER. IN THE MEANTIME...LOCALIZED FLOODING WILL BE
POSSIBLE TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT.
&&
.OKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
CT...NONE.
NJ...NONE.
NY...NONE.
MARINE...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR ANZ350-353 FROM 4 AM SATURDAY TO
2 AM SUNDAY.
