AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE UPTON NY
227 PM EDT WED MAY 16 2007

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE TRI-STATE AREA LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING WITH STRONG TO POSSIBLY SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS. THIS FRONT WILL STALL OFF THE EASTERN SEABOARD
THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY AS WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE
WEST. AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL RIDE NORTH ALONG THE FRONT
FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT...AND WILL BE IN THE WATERS SOUTH OF NEW
ENGLAND BY SATURDAY MORNING. THIS LOW WILL THEN SLOWLY LIFT NORTH
AND EAST INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK AS HIGH PRESSURE GRADUALLY BUILDS IN
FROM HUDSON BAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
GRIDS AND TEXT FORECASTS HAVE BEEN UPDATED TO ACCOUNT FOR A
TORNADO WATCH AND SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH UP ACROSS PORTIONS OF
THE CWA.

THE LINE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IS JUST WEST OF THE FORECAST
AREA AT 18Z...AND WILL GRADUALLY TRANSLATE EASTWARD THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON. ONLY MIDDLESEX AND NEW LONDON COUNTIES IN CONNECTICUT
AND SUFFOLK COUNTY IN NEW YORK ARE NOT UNDER A WATCH.

BY 6 TO 8 PM THIS EVENING...WOULD EXPECT COLD FRONT TO BE NEAR A
DXR-NYC LINE...WITH MODELS IN RATHER GOOD AGREEMENT AS TO FRONTAL
TIMING.

HAVE INCREASED POPS TO CATEGORICAL NW SECTIONS DURING THE
AFTERNOON...AS TSTM LINES AHEAD OF THE FRONT SHOULD YIELD SOME
RAINFALL FOR ALL LOCATIONS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
CONVECTION WILL BE ONGOING DURING THE EARLY EVENING AS THE COLD
FRONT PUSHES EAST ACROSS LONG ISLAND AND SRN CT. WOULD EXPECT
SEVERE THREAT TO DIMINISH AS THE STORMS MOVE FURTHER EAST INTO AN
INCREASINGLY MARITIME ENVIRONMENT WITH STABLE LOW LEVELS...AND AS
DAYTIME HEATING IS LOST. HAVE DEPICTED A BAND OF CATEGORICAL POPS
THIS EVENING AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH WITH ITS ASSOCIATED
SHOWERS AND TSTMS. ONCE THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH...MUCH QUIETER WX
FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT WITH SHOWER CHANCES TAPERING DOWN
QUICKLY. USED A MAV/FWC BLEND FOR LOWS WHICH WILL BE IN THE UPPER
40S TO MID 50S.

THURSDAY SHOULD CONTINUE THE QUIET WX PERIOD...WITH THE FRONT
BECOMING STATIONARY OFFSHORE. HAVE INCLUDED A SLIGHT CHANCE OF
SHOWERS IN THE AFTERNOON AS REGION WILL BE ON THE LEADING EDGE OF
THE LONGWAVE TROF WITH SOME WEAK UPPER DISTURBANCES MOVING PAST...
WHICH COMBINED WITH COOLING MID LEVELS COULD BE JUST ENOUGH TO
SPARK AN ISOLATED SHOWER. DO NOT EXPECT ANY SIGNIFICANT PRECIP ON
THU HOWEVER. HIGHS WILL BE MUCH COOLER THAN TODAY...ONLY REACHING
THE UPPER 50S TO MID 60S.

FCST STARTS TO BECOME MORE COMPLICATED THU NIGHT AND FRI. 00Z
MODELS DIVERGE AS TO THE AMOUNT OF DIGGING WITH THE UPPER TROF
DEVELOPING ALONG THE EAST COAST. THIS RESULTS IN VARYING SOLNS AT
THE SFC...WITH THE LESS AMPLIFIED GFS/GGEM BRINGING A SFC LOW
QUICKLY NORTHWARD THU NIGHT AND FRI. MORE HIGHLY AMPLIFIED NAM/UKMET
SOLN WAS PREFERRED BY HPC AND FOLLOWED...WHICH RESULTS IN A SLOWER
MOVING BUT EVENTUALLY FURTHER WEST SFC LOW. THE SLOWER MOVEMENT
ALLOWS FOR POPS TO REMAIN IN THE 20-30 PERCENT RANGE...HIGHEST EAST...
THU NIGHT. THEN MADE SOME SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO FCST CONTINUITY
FOR FRI...RAISING POPS TO LIKELY ACROSS LONG ISLAND AND SE CT...
WITH CHANCE ELSEWHERE...AS UPPER LOW CUTS OFF OVER THE MID
ATLANTIC AND SFC LOW MOVES SLOWLY NORTHWARD OVER THE WRN ATLANTIC
OCEAN. CONTINUE WITH LIKELY POPS EAST AND CHANCE WEST FRI NIGHT AS
THE LOW SLOGS NORTHWARD TOWARD SRN NEW ENGLAND.

TEMPS WILL REMAIN IN A NARROW RANGE THU NIGHT THROUGH FRI NIGHT DUE
TO CLOUDS...ONSHORE FLOW AND RAIN. HIGHS FRI WILL BE ABOUT 10
DEGREES BELOW NORMAL.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
MODIFIED THE PREVIOUS SATURDAY FCST TO BLEND WITH ABOVE SCENARIO
AND SURROUNDING OFFICES...SHOWING LIKELY POPS EAST TO CHANCE WEST
SAT MORNING THEN TAPERING OFF SAT AFTERNOON AS THE LOW MOVES PAST.

CONTINUED WITH THE PREVIOUS DRY FCST FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE
EXTENDED PERIOD SAT NIGHT THROUGH TUE. THIS MAY PROVE TO BE TOO
OPTIMISTIC IF THE 00Z ECMWF IS CORRECT WITH MUCH SLOWER
PROGRESSION OF THE LONGWAVE PATTERN. IT SHOWS A NEW TROF DIGGING
OVER THE NORTHEAST FOR SUN-TUE...COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THAN THE GFS
WHICH MOVES THE LONGWAVE RIDGE TO THE EAST COAST DURING THIS
PERIOD. WILL LEAVE ANY EXTENDED FCST CHANGES TO THE DAY SHIFT
WHEN THE FULL SUITE OF EXTENDED HPC GUIDANCE WILL BE AVAILABLE.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
STRONG SW FLOW AHEAD OF APPROACHING FRONT THIS AFTERNOON. ENOUGH
INSTABILITY...AND DEEP WIND PROFILE COULD PRODUCE SOME STRONG
TSTMS...AND TIMING APPEARS TO BE JUST AFTER 19Z NE NJ...20-21Z NYC
METRO...AND 22Z LI AND SRN CT. HEAVY RAINS A CONCERN AS IS WIND
GUSTS FROM ANY OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES. LINGERING SHOWERS THIS EVENING
ALONG SLOW MOVING FRONT...AND MVFR VSBYS A POSSIBILITY.

BY THU MORNING...CLOUDS BREAK UP AND MAINLY LOW END VFR TO
OCCASIONAL MVFR LATE TONIGHT INTO THURSDAY MORNING.

WINDS GRADUALLY TURN W...THEN NW LATE TONIGHT. LIGHT NORTHERLY
WINDS EXPECTED THURSDAY.

OUTLOOK BEYOND THU AFTERNOON...VFR THU NIGHT. THEN A DEVELOPING
COASTAL LOW COULD BRING MVFR TO IFR CIGS/VSBYS DEPENDING ON ITS
TRACK FRI AND SAT. MUCH UNCERTAINTY OF TIMING AND EXACT TRACK TO
THIS STORM. VFR THEREAFTER.

&&

.MARINE...
UPDATED FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 278 COVERING WESTERN LONG
ISLAND AND SANDY HOOK NJ TO FIRE ISLAND INLET NY ON THE OCEAN
UNTIL 8 PM.

TIGHT SW PRESSURE GRADIENT REMAINS IN PLACE OVER AREA WATERS AS LOW
PRES AND A TRAILING COLD FRONT ADVANCE FROM THE WEST. COLD FRONT
MOVES THROUGH OVERNIGHT...AND WILL SLOWLY TRAVERSE THE AREA
CLEARING AREA WATERS BY THU MORNING. IT WILL THEN BECOME NEARLY
STATIONARY.

SW WINDS WILL REMAIN 15-20 G25-30KT WITH SEAS 7-10 FT ON THE
OCEAN...1-3 FT ELSEWHERE. WILL KEEP SCA UP ON ALL
WATERS...GRADUALLY DIMINISHING FROM W TO E BY TONIGHT...BUT
REMAINING UP ON THE OCEAN DUE TO SEAS REMAINING IN THE 5-6 FT
RANGE. A DEVELOPING COASTAL LOW WILL APPROACH LATE THU...MOVING N
THROUGH AREA WATERS ON FRI. THOUGH IT IS STILL TOO SOON TO
DETERMINE AN EXACT TRACK TO THE STORM...IT DOES APPEAR THAT SEAS
WILL ONCE AGAIN BUILD TO SCA CRITERIA ON THE OCEAN. ANZ355 MAY
DROP BELOW SCA FROM TIME TO TIME...BUT WILL KEEP SCA UP FOR THAT
ZONE AS OPPOSED TO TAKING IT DOWN...THEN PUTTING IT BACK UP.

HIGH PRES WILL PUSH A COLD FRONT THROUGH AREA WATERS ON SUN...THEN
HIGH PRES IS EXPECTED TO BUILD INTO THE AREA FOR THE START OF THE
NEW WEEK.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
ALTHOUGH GUSTY SW WINDS WILL CONTINUE TODAY AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT...
INCREASING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 50S TO
LOWER 60S WILL LIMIT THE FIRE WEATHER THREAT.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
AREAL QPF TODAY INTO THIS EVENING SHOULD RANGE BETWEEN 1/2 AND 1
INCH WRN SECTIONS...AND 1/3 TO 1/2 INCH EAST. THERE IS THE
POTENTIAL FOR LOCALLY MUCH HIGHER AMOUNTS IN TSTM ACTIVITY. MAINLY
DRY WX EXPECTED LATE TONIGHT THROUGH MOST OF THU NIGHT...THEN
THERE APPEARS TO BE AN INCREASING POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF
RAINFALL IN ASSOCIATION WITH A COASTAL LOW FRI AND FRI NIGHT. AT
THIS POINT IT APPEARS THAT THE HEAVIEST RAIN COULD REMAIN MOSTLY
EAST OF THE FCST AREA WITH THE FRI SYSTEM...BUT IT IS TOO EARLY
TO BE CONFIDENT IN THIS.

&&

.OKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
CT...NONE.
NY...NONE.
NJ...NONE.
MARINE...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY UNTIL 8 PM EDT THIS EVENING FOR ANZ335-
