AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BINGHAMTON NY
822 PM EDT TUE OCT 28 2008
.SYNOPSIS...
INTENSE LOW PRESSURE...CENTERED OVER SOUTHWESTERN NEW
ENGLAND...WILL CONTINUE TO LIFT NORTH TONIGHT...WITH SNOW AND RAIN
CHANGING TO ALL SNOW BEFORE TAPERING OFF LATE THIS EVENING. WINDY
AND COOL WEATHER WILL CONTINUE FOR THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY WITH LAKE
EFFECT SNOW AND RAIN SHOWERS ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION. WARMER AND
DRIER WEATHER IS EXPECTED AS WE HEAD TOWARDS THE END OF THE WEEK.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 11 PM THIS EVENING/...
SURFACE LOW PRESSURE NOW DOWN TO 985 ON MSAS ANALYSIS MOVING NORTH
FROM VERMONT INTO SOUTHERN QUEBEC. ONE BAND OF MODERATE TO HEAVY
SNOW REMAINS OVER OUR CWA IN THE FRONTOGENESIS ZONE TO THE
SOUTHWEST OF THE STORM. HAVE RECEIVED NUMEROUS 7 TO 15 INCH SNOW
REPORTS OVER THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS FROM MADISON COUNTY SOUTH TO
SUSQUEHANNA AND EASTWARD. THIS BAND LOOKS TO BE CAPABLE OF PUTTING
DOWN ANOTHER FEW INCHES ACROSS THE WINTER STORM WARNING AREAS
THROUGH MIDNIGHT.
MEANWHILE... STRONG WINDS ARE DEVELOPING IN THE WAKE OF THE STORM
OVER OUR CENTRAL AND WESTERN COUNTIES... WITH SEVERAL REPORTS OF
WIND GUSTS OVER 40 KTS. MODEL SOUNDINGS CURRENTLY SHOWING 40 TO 50
KT WINDS BETWEEN 900 AND 800... WITH STEEP ENOUGH LAPSE RATES TO
MIX THESE WIND TO THE SURFACE. BASED ON THIS... WILL END THE
WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR OUR CENTRAL COUNTIES AND REPLACE WITH
A WIND ADVISORY. WILL ALSO ISSUE A WIND ADVISORY FOR THE WEST.
WILL KEEP THE WINTER STORM WARNING GOING FOR THE EAST.
FINALLY... SOME WEAK LAKE EFFECT SNOW IS NOW BEGINNING TO DEVELOP OVER
THE FINGER LAKES AREA. WITH THE FLOW EXPECTED TO BE FROM 300 TO
310 DEGREES TONIGHT EXPECT SOME MULTIBANDS TO DEVELOP FROM THE
NORTHERN FINGER LAKES EASTWARD TO I-81... WITH SMALL ADDITIONAL
ACCUMULATIONS LIKELY IN THOSE AREAS.
&&
.SHORT TERM /11 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY/...
THE SIGNATURES FOR LAKE EFFECT BECOME MORE CONDUCIVE ON WEDNESDAY
AS A 300 DEGREE FLOW SETS UP WITH EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS RISING TO
AROUND 10KFT. IN ADDITION...ANOTHER SHORTWAVE WILL DROP INTO THE
NORTHEASTERN US CUTOFF ADDING SYNOPTIC SUPPORT FOR ASCENT
/HOWEVER...THE BEST FORCING WILL BE TO THE SOUTH OVER PA/. THE ONLY
LIMITING FACTOR WILL BE BL TEMPS...WHICH AGAIN...WITH LLEVEL FLOW
COMING OFF THE LAKE...WILL LIKELY BE IN THE 33-36 F RANGE. FEEL
THAT THE BEST CHANCES FOR ACCUMULATING SNOW WILL BE OVER SOUTHERN
ONONDAGA/MADISON AND NORTHERN CORTLAND/CHENANGO COUNTIES WHERE THE
TERRAIN IS HIGHER AND LLEVEL TEMPS WILL BE A LITTLE COOLER. RIGHT
NOW AM EXPECTING 2-4 INCHES WITH AMOUNTS BEING LIMITED BY 1-THE
FLOW BEING A LITTLE TOO NORTHERLY FOR GOOD SINGLE BAND DEVELOPMENT
AND 2-BL TEMPS BEING MARGINAL. ELSEWHERE...EXPECT A COOL AND
BLUSTERY DAY WITH SCATTERED SHRASN AS TEMPERATURES STRUGGLE TO
35-40F AS T925 AROUND -1C...AND MCLOUDY/CLOUDY SKIES. WINDS WILL
BE GUSTY...BUT NOT A STRONG AS ON TUESDAY...GUSTING TO 25KTS
DURING THE DAY.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT...THE FLOW WILL GAIN AN INCREASINGLY NORTHERLY
COMPONENT AS RIDGING ALOFT QUICKLY BUILDS IN FROM THE GREAT LAKES.
WHILE TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO BE COLD ENOUGH TO SUPPORT LAKE
EFFECT...THE LOSS OF SYNOPTIC MOISTURE AND NORTHERLY FLOW
COMPONENT WILL LIKELY ONLY SUPPORT SCT SHSN ACROSS MUCH OF CENTRAL
NEW YORK WITH ONLY MINOR ACCUMULATIONS POSSIBLE. TEMPERATURES WILL
BE A LITTLE COOLER...LIKELY FALLING TO BETWEEN 25 AND 30F GIVEN
LESS MIXING AND SOME BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS.
THURSDAY LOOKS LIKE A MUCH BETTER DAY AS THE TROUGH OVER THE
NORTHEASTERN US PULLS AWAY WITH THE H85 RIDGE AXIS APPROACHING BY
EVENING. WITH INCREASING SUBSIDENCE AT MID AND UPPER LEVELS...ANY
LAKE EFFECT SHRASN WILL END...AND SKIES WILL GRADUALLY CLEAR. T925
WILL BE SIMILAR TO ON WEDNESDAY...BUT WITH INCREASING SUNSHINE...
WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO BOUNCE INTO THE 40S
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
GIVEN FOCUS ON THE SHORT TERM...WE FOLLOWED HPC GUIDANCE CLOSELY
WITH ONLY MINOR TWEEKS. ONLY WX-MAKER OF ANY SIGNIFICANCE WILL BE
A MOISTURE-STARVED COLD FRONT WHICH PASSES FRI NGT/SAT. PLAYED A
BAND OF FNTL-CLDS AND LOW CHC POPS ACRS UPSTATE WITH THIS SYSTEM.
OTRW WE XPCT HI PRES TO BE IN CONTROL WITH FAIR WX.
&&
.AVIATION /00Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
VERY GUSTY WINDS DEVELOPING THIS EVENING ACROSS THE REGION...AS
LARGE-SCALE SINKING MOTION STARTS TO MIX STRONGER WINDS DOWN
TOWARDS THE GROUND...JUST BEHIND EARLIER SNOW BANDS. AS A
RESULT...WEVE BUMPED THE GUSTS UP TO AROUND 40 KT FOR MOST OF OUR
TERMINAL SITES THROUGH ABOUT 04Z. LATER TONIGHT...THESE WINDS
SHOULD SLOWLY SUBSIDE.
OTHERWISE...SLOW IMPROVEMENT EXPECTED OVERNIGHT...AS MAIN SNOW BANDS
LIFT OFF TO THE EAST AND NORTHEAST. FOR KSYR...KRME...KBGM...AND
KITH...THOUGH...MVFR TO IFR SHOULD LINGER THROUGH THE NIGHT...AS
SOME LAKE-EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS START TO KICK IN. FOR KELM AND
KAVP...A TRANSITION BACK TO VFR SHOULD TAKE PLACE.
ALTHOUGH SNOW SHOWERS WILL BE MOVING THROUGH CENTRAL NY FROM TIME
TO TIME ON WEDNESDAY...IMPACTING MAINLY KSYR AND KRME...VFR SHOULD
BE THE PREVAILING FLIGHT CATEGORY. WINDS WILL OCCASIONALLY GUST UP
TO 20 KT OR SO...OUT OF THE WEST AND NORTHWEST.
OUTLOOK...
WED NGT THRU SUNDAY...VFR WILL PREVAIL THRU THE PD...WITH A CHC
FOR BRIEF MVFR RESTRICTIONS FRI NGT/SAT AS A WEAK CDFNT MOVS THRU.
