AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
204 PM EDT THU MAR 27 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
THE WEATHER WILL BECOME UNSETTLED LATE TODAY AND FRIDAY AS
WAVES OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE EASTWARD ALONG A NEARLY STATIONARY
BOUNDARY TO OUR SOUTH. THE BOUNDARY WILL SINK FURTHER SOUTH BY THE
WEEKEND...ALLOWING HIGH PRESSURE TO DOMINATE OUR WEATHER WITH FAIR
AND CHILLY CONDITIONS.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
CLOUDS WILL CONTINUE TO THICKEN AND INCREASE THIS AFTERNOON...AS
MID LEVEL ISENTROPIC LIFT AND FRONTOGENETICAL FORCING INCREASE ON
THE NORTH SIDE OF STRONG BAROCLINIC ZONE. FIRST WAVE...CURRENTLY
PRODUCING RAIN ACROSS THE UPPER OH VALLEY...WILL SLIDE
E...POSSIBLY GRAZING EXTREME SOUTHERN AREAS LATER THIS MORNING
WITH SOME LIGHT RAIN/SPRINKLES...WITH PERHAPS SOME WET SNOW MIXED
IN ACROSS HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE CATSKILLS/LITCHFIELD HILLS. AS
MID LEVEL FORCING INTENSIFIES AND SHIFTS FURTHER N THIS
AFTERNOON...THE PROSPECTS FOR PRECIPITATION WILL
INCREASE...HIGHEST ACROSS SW AND S AREAS...POSSIBLY REACHING THE
MOHAWK VALLEY BY THIS EVENING. BOUNDARY LAYER SHOULD HAVE WARMED
SUFFICIENTLY FOR P-TYPE TO BE MAINLY RAIN...ALTHOUGH HIGHER
ELEVATIONS COULD ALREADY HAVE SOME WET SNOW MIXED IN...ESP TOWARD
SUNSET.

AS FOR TEMPS...TRICKY CALL...AS INITIAL TEMPS HAVE COOLED A BIT MORE
THAN MOST MOS INDICATE AS OF 07Z. THIS...IN COMBINATION WITH A RAPID
INCREASE IN CLOUD COVER SHOULD LIMIT THE POTENTIAL RISE IN TEMPS.
THEREFORE...HAVE SIDED WITH...OR A BIT BELOW THE MAV MOS...ALTHOUGH
HAVE GONE WARMER THAN THE COLDEST FWC MOS NUMBERS. THUS...EXPECT
MID/UPPER 40S WITHIN THE VALLEYS...AND UPPER 30S/LOWER 40S ACROSS
THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS...WITH PERHAPS SOME MID 30S ACROSS THE
CATSKILLS AND LITCHFIELD HILLS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
TONIGHT...AS SLIGHTLY STRONGER WAVE ROLLS E...MID LEVEL FORCING WILL
CONTINUE TO STRENGTHEN AND SHIFT N...ALLOWING PRECIP SHIELD TO
EXPAND N OF THE MOHAWK RIVER INTO SOUTHERN VT. PRECIP SHOULD BE
MAINLY IN THE FORM OF RAIN WITHIN THE VALLEYS THROUGH
MIDNIGHT...WHILE SNOW GRADUALLY MIXES IN ACROSS THE HIGHER
ELEVATIONS. THEN...EXPECT A TRANSITION TO SNOW EVEN ACROSS THE
VALLEYS AFTER MIDNIGHT AS BOUNDARY LAYER COOLS FURTHER...AND
STRONGER UPWARD VERTICAL MOTION FURTHER COOLS THE MID/UPPER LEVELS.
AT THIS TIME...IT LOOKS LIKE SNOW ACCUMS OF 1-3 INCHES ON COLDER
SURFACES WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS VALLEY LOCALES FROM THE CAPITAL
DISTRICT S AND E...WITH 2-4 INCHES POSSIBLE ACROSS THE
HELDERBERGS/SCHOHARIE VALLEY AND BERKS...AND POSSIBLY ADVISORY LEVEL
4-7 INCHES ACROSS THE EASTERN CATSKILLS. DUE TO SOME LINGERING
UNCERTAINTY...WE WILL HOLD OFF ON ADVISORY ISSUANCE FOR NOW...BUT
SUBSEQUENT SHIFTS WILL LIKELY HOIST ADVISORIES FOR AT LEAST THE
HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE CATSKILLS...ASSUMING FORECAST TRENDS
REMAIN SIMILAR.

FOR MIN TEMPS...GENERALLY WENT A BIT ABOVE THE MAV MOS...CLOSER TO
THE WARMER MET MOS...YIELDING LOWER 30S ACROSS THE VALLEYS...AND
MID/UPPER 20S ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN...WITH SOME MID 30S ACROSS
THE MID HUDSON VALLEY REGION.

FRI...EXPECT SNOW TO EARLY...BUT AS WAVE CONTINUES TO MOVE
E...ASSOCIATED FORCING WILL WEAKEN...DIMINISHING THE PRECIP
INTENSITY...AND POSSIBLY ALLOWING PRECIP TO TRANSITION BACK TO LIGHT
RAIN AND/OR ICE PELLETS. BY AFTERNOON...PRECIP SHOULD END FOR AREAS
N/W OF THE CAPITAL REGION...WITH JUST SOME SPOTTY LIGHT RAIN/SNOW
FOR AREAS TO THE S/E. HOWEVER...ANOTHER WAVE MAY ALLOW PRECIP TO
EXPAND BACK TO THE N LATE FRI INTO FRI EVENING...AND THEREFORE HAVE
KEPT CHC POPS FOR SOUTHERN AREAS...AND SLIGHT CHC FURTHER N INTO THE
CAPITAL REGION FOR LATE FRI INTO FRI EVE. AS FOR MAX
TEMPS...GENERALLY WENT WITH MAV/MET MOS BLEND...WITH LOWER 40S IN
THE VALLEYS...AND 30S ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN.

FRI NT...AFOREMENTIONED FINAL WAVE MAY ALLOW FOR ADDITIONAL...LIGHT
PRECIP FOR THE CAPITAL REGION AND POINTS S/E BEFORE MIDNIGHT.
THEN...EXPECT DRYING FROM THE N TO SETTLE SOUTHWARD...ALONG WITH
SOME CLEARING. FOR MINS...GENERALLY FOLLOWED CLOSE TO MAV/MET MOS
BLEND...WITH LOWER/MID 20S IN MOST VALLEYS...AND TEENS ACROSS THE
NORTH COUNTRY AND SOUTHERN VT.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SATURDAY WILL BE DRY...AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN.  HOWEVER...COLD
ADVECTION WILL BE OCCURRING...AND BOUNDARY LAYER TEMPERATURES WILL
BE COOLING...SO HIGHS SHOULD BE IN THE 30S TO LOWER 40S.  IT MAY BE
RATHER BREEZY...MAKING IT CONTINUE TO FEEL MORE WINTERY THAN
SPRING-LIKE.  LOWS SUNDAY MORNING WILL BE IN THE TEENS TO MID 20S.

SUNDAY...ANOTHER DRY DAY...BUT SOME WARM ADVECTION BEGINS...HELPING
TEMPERATURES TO RISE INTO THE 40S IN MOST AREAS.  SOME CLOUD COVER
WILL INCREASE IN ADVANCE OF THE NEXT SYSTEM.  SUNDAY
NIGHT...PRECIPITATION OVERSPREADS THE REGION...AND BASED ON
FORECASTED THERMAL PROFILES...SNOW OR A RAIN/SNOW MIX WILL
OCCUR...WITH BEST CHANCES FOR SNOW IN HIGHER ELEVATIONS.

MONDAY...STRONG WARM ADVECTION OCCURS...AND SOME CONSENSUS FOR THE
LOW-LEVEL FEATURE TO TRACK ACROSS NORTHWESTERN AREAS...SO ALL AREAS
SHOULD TRANSITION TO RAIN...WITH A SNOW MIX OR JUST CONTINUING AS
SNOW IN AREAS NORTH OF THE MOHAWK VALLEY AND BERKSHIRES.  THERE IS
SOME SPREAD IN THE GUIDANCE AS TO HOW FAR NORTH THE BOUNDARY LAYER
WARMING GETS.  SLIGHT COOLING MONDAY NIGHT MAY SUPPORT A MIX WITH
FREEZING RAIN IN COLDER SPOTS...POSSIBLY SOME SNOW IN HIGHER
ELEVATIONS...AND JUST A COLD RAIN IN HUDSON VALLEY THROUGH PARTS OF
THE BERKSHIRES AND NW CT.

SYSTEM TIMED TO EXIT THROUGH THE DAY TUESDAY...SO TEMPERATURES RISE
TO 40S AND LOWER 50S...DEPENDING ON ANY POTENTIAL PARTIAL CLEARING
WITH THE SOUTHWEST TO WEST BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS SHIFTING TO
NORTHWEST.  ONE LAST BATCH OF RAIN OR SHOWERS WITH THE FRONTOGENESIS
ASSOCIATED WITH THE RAPID COOLING.  SOME LINGERING RAIN AND SNOW
ACTIVITY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT.  GUIDANCE NOT SUGGESTING TOO MUCH
COOLING BEHIND THE SYSTEM...SO HIGHS WEDNESDAY INTO THE 40S AND
LOWER 50S.

GENERALLY...CONSIDERABLE SPREAD WITH TIMING OF SYSTEMS AND THERMAL
PROFILES...WHICH IS TYPICAL THIS TIME OF THE YEAR IN FAST UPPER
FLOW...AND SURFACE THROUGH BOUNDARY LAYER THAT IS NOT WELL-RESOLVED
IN MODELS.  MEAN EASTERN NORTH AMERICAN UPPER TROUGH STILL SUGGESTS
AT OR BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
WHILE LOWER LEVELS CONTINUE TO REMAIN DRY...CLOUDS CONTINUE TO
THICKEN AND OVERSPREAD THE REGION WITH CIGS MAINLY BETWEEN 6000
AND 10000 FEET. SYSTEM IN THE GREAT LAKES AND OH VALLEY WILL CONT
TO MOVE RAPIDLY EAST WITH PRECIPITATION ARRIVING IN THE HUDSON
VALLEY BETWEEN 23Z AND 02Z. CIGS AND VSBYS WITH THEN QUICKLY DROP
TO MVFR AND EVENTUALLY IFR AFTER 06Z. PTYPE EXPECTED TO BE ALL
SNOW AT KGFL AND MAINLY SNOW AT KALB AFTER AN INITIAL MIX WITH
RAIN AND THE SNOW MAY POSSIBLY MIX WITH SLEET LATE TONIGHT INTO
EARLY FRIDAY AT ALBANY. KPOU CAN EXPECT A MAINLY RAIN EVENT WITH
PCPN MIXING WITH SNOW LATE TONIGHT INTO EARLY FRIDAY. FOR SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS PLEASE REFER TO OUR LATEST ZONE FORECASTS. WINDS
WILL GENERALLY BE LIGHT UNDER 10 KTS WITH WIND DIRECTION SHIFTING
FROM SOUTH THIS AFTERNOON TO NORTH THIS EVENING AND THEN
NORTHEAST ON FRIDAY.

OUTLOOK...
SAT-SUN...NO SIG WX.
MON-TUE...VFR/MVFR/IFR...CHC -RA/-SN.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
SEVERAL WAVES OF LOW PRESSURE WILL PASS SOUTH OF THE REGION THROUGH
FRIDAY EVENING...BEFORE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS SOUTHEAST FROM CANADA
FOR THE WEEKEND. THIS WILL BRING WET FLAG CONDITIONS FOR THE
SOUTHERN HALF OF THE REGION TONIGHT...AS WIDESPREAD RAIN AND SNOW
OCCUR.

RH VALUES WILL FALL INTO THE 40-50 PERCENT RANGE WITHIN THE
VALLEYS...AND 50-60 PERCENT RANGE ACROSS THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS THIS
AFTERNOON...BEFORE RECOVERING INTO THE 80-100 PERCENT RANGE TONIGHT.
RH VALUES WILL FALL INTO THE 40-50 PERCENT RANGE ACROSS NORTHERN
AREAS...AND 50-65 PERCENT RANGE FOR CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN AREAS FOR
FRI AFTERNOON.

RH VALUES MAY FALL TO BELOW 30 PERCENT SAT AFTERNOON.

WINDS WILL BE FROM THE SOUTHWEST TO WEST...AT 10-15 MPH TODAY...AND
SHIFT INTO THE NORTH TO NORTHEAST AT LESS THAN 10 MPH FOR TONIGHT.
WINDS WILL REMAIN FROM THE NORTH TO NORTHEAST...AND INCREASE TO
10-15 MPH BY FRI AFTERNOON.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
NO HYDRO PROBLEMS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

TOTAL LIQUID EQUIVALENT PRECIPITATION EXPECTED TONIGHT THROUGH
FRIDAY MORNING WILL BE MOST OVER THE SOUTHERN THIRD OF THE FORECAST
AREA...IN THE CATSKILLS...TACONICS...SOUTHERN BERKSHIRES AND MID
HUDSON VALLEY...WITH A HALF INCH TO THREE QUARTERS OF AN INCH.  THE
MOHAWK VALLEY THROUGH THE CAPITAL DISTRICT...NORTHERN BERKSHIRES AND
SOUTHERN VT COULD SEE A THIRD TO HALF INCH...WHILE AREAS NORTH WILL
SEE A TRACE TO A THIRD OF AN INCH.  MUCH OF THE PRECIPITATION WILL
FALL AS SNOW IN HIGHER ELEVATIONS...WHILE A MIX IS LIKELY IN LOWER
ELEVATIONS.  THIS PRECIPITATION WILL NOT BE ENOUGH TO PRODUCE
FLOODING IN THE FORECAST AREA.
