Area forecast discussion, Jul 18, 9:51 PM EDT, 1 hour 2 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE UPTON NY 951 PM EDT TUE JUL 18 2006 .NEAR TERM (OVERNIGHT)... REAL QUICK HERE...ZONES HAVE BEEN UPDATED AGAIN WITH AN MCS MOVING ACROSS NORTHERN NJ AND INTO THE NY METRO AREA. A COLD FRONT LAYING DOWN ACROSS THE TRI-STATE AREA OVERNIGHT IN CONJUNCTION WITH A MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE MAY RESULT IN LOCALIZED HEAVY RAINFALL AND FLOODING ACROSS NE NJ...NYC AND LONG ISLAND THROUGH 06Z. IN ADDITION...THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH REMAINS UP THROUGH 1 AM FOR EVERYONE EXCEPT ORANGE AND PUTNAM COUNTIES. COLD FRONT SLIDES THROUGH THE TRI-STATE AREA BY MORNING...BRINGING IN SLIGHTLY LOWER DEWPOINTS (M-U60S) AND LOWS ABOUT 10 DEGREES COOLER THAN LAST NIGHT AS WELL. && .SHORT TERM (WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)... NEITHER NAM NOR GFS SEEMS TO BE EXACTLY ON TOP OF CURRENT OVERALL SITUATION...PREFER CANADIAN WHICH IS COMPROMISE BETWEEN THE TWO (THOUGH A BIT CLOSER TO THE NAM THAN GFS). TOMORROW SHOULD BE A REFRESHING DAY (UNLESS YOU ENJOY HEAT AND HUMIDITY) WITH HIGHS GENERALLY L-M80S (COOLER ALONG COAST) DEWPOINTS IN THE M60S...PRODUCING HEAT INDICES IN THE M-U 80S (VICE THE 95-104 OF TODAY). SHOULD BE DRY WITH BUILDING HEIGHTS AND AN EASTERLY (STABLE MARINE) FLOW SETTING UP IN THE LOW LEVELS BY AFTERNOON. LOW-MID LEVEL RIDGE SHOULD KEEP THINGS DRY WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS WELL...AND ALLOW LOWS TO FALL TO THE M-U60S (A70 NYC HEAT ISLAND). BOTH GFS AND NAM SOUNDINGS IN BUFKIT SHOW SOME INSTABILITY (AROUND 500J/KG CAPE) THU AFTERNOON...SO HAVE SLIGHT CHANCE SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS THEN. CONTINUES WEAK ONSHORE FLOW THOUGH WILL ACTUALLY PRODUCE HIGHS THURSDAY A TAD COOLER THAN TOMORROW (A80-M80S). CONTINUE SLIGHT CHANCE POPS THU EVENING THEN INCREASE SLIGHTLY TO RAISE TO LOW CHANCE POPS ACROSS NW ZONES TO REFLECT CANADIAN INDICATING TAIL OF 5H VORT LOBE PASSING LATE THU NIGHT. AIR MASS MODIFICATION WILL PRODUCE LOWS A TAD WARMER THAN WED NIGHT (U60S- L70S). NOTE: SINCE FAVORED CMC DID NOT BUY INTO FASTER GFS TIMING OF FRONT AS TD #2 (NOT REFLECTED IN 12Z GFS) WILL ACT TO HANG UP FRONT (AS DONE IN CMC/NAM/UKMET - THOUGH PROBABLY NOT AS MUCH AS INDICATED IN NAM). RESULT IS DO NOT UP POPS UP TO CHANCE THROUGH OUT UNTIL FRIDAY AFTERNOON WHEN CMC BRINGS FRONT THROUGH...HIGHS WITH AFTERNOON FRONTAL PASSAGE M-U80S (COULD SEE 90 ACROSS NE NJ HOT SPOTS AND OF COURSE A TAD COOLER ALONG THE COAST). && .LONG TERM (FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)... BLEND OF 6Z GFS/0Z ECMWF USED FOR EXTENDED (THIS GENERALLY SUPPORTED BY 12Z GFS). SOLUTION HAS FRONT STALLING OUT TO S OF CWA WITH OCCASIONAL WAVES OF LOW PRESSURE RIDING UP ALONG IT...SO GENERALLY RUN SLIGHT CHANCE POPS...THOUGH DO GO WITH CHC POPS LATE SAT NIGHT AND SUNDAY TO REFLECT SURFACE WAVE SUGGESTED BY GFS/ECMWF THEN). TEMPERATURES GENERALLY ARE CLOSE TO BLEND OF MEX/MEX ENSEMBLE MEAN NUMBERS...WITH LOWS GENERALLY 65-70 AND HIGHS 80-85 (A BIT COOLER WITH PRECIPITATION ON SUNDAY). && .AVIATION... WITH THE EXCEPTION OF KGON...VFR CEILINGS AND VSBYS EXPECTED OUTSIDE OF ANY CONVECTION. A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH IS IN EFFECT THROUGH 05Z AFFECTING MOST TERMINALS...THE EXCEPTION BEING KSWF. KGON HAS HAD MVFR VSBYS IN HZ MUCH OF THE DAY AND WILL PROBABLY REMAIN THAT WAY UNTIL FROPA OVERNIGHT. WINDS OUTSIDE OF CONVECTION WILL REMAIN LIGHT AND SHIFT N/NE THIS EVENING. && .MARINE... A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE WATERS OVERNIGHT WITH SCATTERED STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. TD #2 IS FORECAST TO BECOME A TROPICAL STORM OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS...BUT THE LATEST NHC FORECAST TRACK KEEPS THE SYSTEM WELL SOUTH OF THE FORECAST WATERS.
