Area forecast discussion, Jun 27, 9:50 AM EDT, 3 hours 15 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BINGHAMTON NY 950 AM EDT WED JUN 27 2007 .SYNOPSIS... HIGH PRESSURE OFF THE EAST COAST WILL SLOWLY GIVE WAY TODAY, ALLOWING A FRONTAL SYSTEM TO APPROACH FROM THE WEST. AFTER ANOTHER HOT AND HUMID DAY, THUNDERSTORMS WILL FORM THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. SOME OF THESE STORMS WILL PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS AND VERY HEAVY RAINFALL. && .NEAR TERM /TODAY/... MORNING FOG HAS BURNED OFF LEAVING SOME HAZE AND NEAR FULL SUN. KSYR IS ALREADY 85 AT THIS HOUR...DEMONSTRATING THE WARMTH OF THE AIRMASS. DONT SEE HIGHS HAVING MUCH TROUBLE REACHING THE SAME VALUES AS YESTERDAY...SO HAVE BUMPED THEM UP JUST SLIGHTLY WITH THIS UPDATE. SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE STORMS CONTINUES ACROSS THE AREA TODAY. IMPRESSIVE CAPE FIELDS...WITH 2000-2500 J/KG POSSIBLE BY AFTERNOON...BUT THE WIND FIELDS CONTINUE TO BE UNIMPRESSIVE. THIS BRINGS WITH IT THE POSSIBLE FLASH FLOODING RISK AS MBE VECTORS ARE NEARLY STATIONARY OVER THE AREA TODAY SUGGESTING SOME STORM BACK BUILDING. KBUF AND KALB 12Z SOUNDINGS DO SUGGEST SOME DRY AIR ALOFT...WHICH MAY ENHANCE THE POTENTIAL FOR A FEW DOWNBURSTS WITH ANY STORMS THAT DO DEVELOP. WITH SUCH A WARM AIRMASS...FEEL HAIL WILL BE A LESSER THREAT...AND AT THIS POINT THE SHEAR FIELDS DO NOT APPEAR SUPPORTIVE FOR ROTATING UPDRAFTS. 12Z KBUF SOUNDING ALSO SHOWS SOMEWHAT OF A CAP...SO STORMS MAY HAVE SOME TROUBLE FORMING IN THE SHORT TERM. HOWEVER...A SHORTWAVE OVER SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN COMBINED WITH THE INCREASING INSTABILITY AS DAYTIME HEATING PROGRESSES SHOULD HAVE NO PROBLEM OVERCOMING THE CAP...BUT WITH THE AFOREMENTIONED WEAK WIND FIELDS...DO NOT BELIEVE AN ORGANIZED WIDESPREAD SEVERE EVENT IS LIKELY. && .SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/... TONIGHT CONVECTIVE COVERAGE INCREASES WITH THE APPROACH OF THE COLD FRONT FROM THE NORTH AND WEST. THUNDERSTORMS MAY INCREASE AGAIN OVER SOUTHERN ZONES ON THURSDAY AS DAYTIME HEATING ADDS TO THE INSTABILITY. THERE WILL ONCE AGAIN BE A SEVERE THREAT, BUT FEEL FLASH FLOODING WILL REMAIN THE BIGGEST CONCERN. LATEST PROGS SHOW AVP HOLDING ONTO A 1.75-1.90 PRECIPITABLE WATER CONTENT INTO THURSDAY MORNING. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/... AMPLIFIED PATTERN OVER THE CONUS BRINGS A PRETTY SUBSTANTIAL TROUGH OVER OUR AREA FOR THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. ALTHOUGH THE NEW 6Z GFS IS MORE IN LINE WITH THE 00Z ECMWF IN A WEAKER TROUGH THAN THE 0Z GFS...WELL STILL BE IN LINE FOR BELOW NORMAL TEMPS THROUGH THE WEEKEND. PRIMARY DIFFERENCE FROM YESTERDAY IS THAT A DECENT SHORTWAVE WILL DROP THROUGH THE AREA ON SATURDAY ALONG WITH THE COLD CORE ALOFT. THIS FEATURE IS A LITTLE MORE ROBUST THAN WHAT LONG RANGE MODELS DEPICTED YESTERDAY. THE GFS DEVELOPS AROUND 500 J/KG OF CAPE WITH THIS FEATURE...AND WITH GOOD DYNAMICS ALOFT /PVA AND GOOD JET PLACEMENT/ IT APPEARS THAT WELL SEE SOME AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND PERHAPS A FEW THUNDERSTORMS. THIS SHOULD CLEAR THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT WITH DRIER ALBEIT COOL CONDITIONS FOR SUNDAY WITH TEMPS STRUGGLING TO MAKE IT MUCH ABOVE 70F. THE SURFACE HIGH CRESTS OVER THE AREA MONDAY AND BY TUESDAY...THE TROUGH PULLS AWAY FROM THE US EAST COAST ALLOWING RIDGING OVER THE CENTRAL PORTION OF THE COUNTRY TO BUILD EAST AS THE SURFACE HIGH MOVES SOUTHEAST OF THE AREA. THIS WILL BRING MODERATING CONDITIONS WITH TEMPS AROUND SEASONAL NORMS. && .AVIATION /12Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... WIDESPREAD MVFR VISIBILITIES WILL REMAIN FIXED THROUGH ABOUT 13Z. ELM IS STRUGGLING IN IFR RANGE, BUT SHOULD RECOVER SHARPLY IN THE NEXT 2 HOURS. LATE THIS AFTERNOON THE ATMOSPHERE WILL BECOME UNSTABLE, ALLOWING THUNDERSTORMS TO FORM. COVERAGE WILL BE SCATTERED. ANY THUNDERSTORM WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE HEAVY RAINFALL AND GUSTY WINDS. THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TONIGHT WITH COVERAGE INCREASING. THERE IS WIDESPREAD LIGHT FOG POTENTIAL IF THE GROUND BECOMES SATURATED ENOUGH. AFTER THUNDERSTORMS TAPER OFF ON THURSDAY, DRY WEATHER WILL RETURN FOR THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY. ELM WILL NEED TO BE WATCHED FOR MORNING FOG. && .BGM WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... PA...NONE. NY...NONE. && SYNOPSIS...DJP NEAR TERM...JMA SHORT TERM...DJP/JMA LONG TERM...JMA AVIATION...DJP
