AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
1159 PM EST SUN MAR 2 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
RAPID CHANGES WILL BE IN STORE FOR WESTERN AND CENTRAL NEW YORK
THIS WEEK...WHICH WILL INCLUDE OUR FIRST REAL TASTE OF SPRING
MONDAY...MIXED PRECIPITATION EVENTS ON TUESDAY AND THURSDAY...AND
A RETURN OF MIDWINTER CHILL BY NEXT WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
STRONG WARM AIR ADVECTION/ISENTROPIC LIFT AHEAD OF THE UPPER
MIDWEST/CENTRAL PLAINS COLD FRONT IS GENERATING SOME ELEVATED
CONVECTION OVER MICHIGAN AND LAKE HURON THIS EVENING. EXPECT SOME
OF THESE SHOWERS TO SPREAD EAST ACROSS OUR CWA OVERNIGHT...AFTER
AN INITIAL PERIOD OF VIRGA AS THE RAIN ENCOUNTERS THE DRIER LOW
LEVEL AIR IN PLACE OVER WESTERN NEW YORK. SINCE AREA TEMPERATURES
APPEAR TO HAVE ALREADY BOTTOMED OUT THIS EVENING...EXPECT MOST OF
THE PCPN TO FALL AS RAIN ACROSS WESTERN NEW YORK AND THE GENESEE
VALLEY WHERE MOST LOCATIONS ARE ABOVE FREEZING. WILL LEAVE IN THE
SPOTTY FREEZING RAIN ACROSS THE NORTHERN FINGER LAKES AND NORTH
COUNTRY...BUT SINCE THE PCPN IS EXPECTED TO BE VERY LIGHT...THERE
ARE NO REAL CONCERNS AT THIS TIME. BUT...THIS SITUATION WILL BE
MONITORED CAREFULLY OVERNIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SPRING GIVES US A TEASE ON MONDAY...BUT ITS STAY WILL BE BRIEF.
SKIES SHOULD CLEAR ENOUGH FOR AT LEAST PARTLY SUNNY SKIES THROUGH
THE DAY...AND WITH 850 MB TEMPS RISING TO +8C OR SO AND A DECENT
MIXING SSW WIND...TEMPS WILL RISE WELL INTO 50S...AND 60 NOT OUT
OF QUESTION IN WARM SPOTS OF GENESEE VALLEY. IMMED BUFFALO AREA A
CLOSE CALL DEPENDING ON WIND DIRECTION. MODELS INSIST ON 210-220
WHICH WOULD ALLOW E SUBURBS TO RISE INTO 50S AS WELL...BUT CITY
AND NEAR THE RIVER WILL BE COOLER DUE TO SOME INFLUENCE OFF ICE
COVERED LAKE ERIE. WILL HOLD OFF SHOWERS FROM APPROACHING FRONT
TILL 6 PM OR SO.

THE FORECAST GETS VERY COMPLICATED FOR THE FOLLOWING 24 TO 36
HOURS. MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT IN LEANING A COLD FRONT ACROSS THE
REGION LATER MON NT AND EARLY TUES...THEN STALLING IT JUST TO OUR
EAST AND SOUTH...THEN MAJOR COMPLEX LOW GETS GOING IN THE LOWER
MIDWEST AND LIFTS NORTHWARD TOWARD OUR REGION DURING TUES AND TUES
NT. WE WILL ALL GET A SHOT OF RAIN SHOWERS MON NT WITH MUCH COLDER
AIR CHANGING THE PRECIP OVER TO SNOW DURING THE PREDAWN HOURS ON
TUESDAY AS FAR EAST AS THE GEN VALLEY. NAM APPEARS OVERDONE WITH
PRECIP ON BACKSIDE OF THIS FRONT BUT WILL INCR POPS TO CATEG LATE
AND GO WITH A 1-2 INCH ACCUM TOWARD DAYBREAK TUES ON NIAG FRONTIER
AND NR LAKE ERIE.

THIS PRECIP SHOULD EASE OFF TUES MORNING AS FRONT SLIDES TO NY-PA
BORDER AND STALLS A BIT FURTHER SOUTH. NORTHERN AREAS LIKE BUF
AND ROC COULD SEE PRECIP END COMPLETELY FOR MUCH OF TUES...ESP IF
ECMWF AND NAM ARE CORRECT...WHILE IT LINGERS CROSS SRN TIER AS
RAIN...PERHAPS TRANSITIONING TO FZ RAIN LATER IN DAY AS COLD NORTH
TO NORTHEAST FLOW INCREASES DUE TO LARGE HIGH OVER ONTARIO AND
QUEBEC.

ALL MODELS THEN BRING WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE UP FROM TENN VALLEY TO
ABOUT WVA BY TUES EVE AND THEN TAKE IT RIGHT CROSS THE SPINE OF
APPALACHIANS TO NEAR BGM BY 12Z WED. THIS IS AN UNLIKELY
PATH...THE NAM12 MORE REALISTIC IN TAKING AN INITIAL LOW UP W OF
APPALACHIANS TO ERN LK ERIE WHILE DEEPER LOW MOVES UP ACROSS ERN
PA. GFS AND ECMWF DOT HAVE THE RESOLUTION TO ACCOUNT FOR THE
MOUNTAIN BLOCK SO SHOW A BROAD LOW. OUR EXPERIENCE IS THAT LOWS OR
THEIR SFC REFLECTION LIKE TO STAY WEST OF MTNS AND USUALLY WIND UP
FARTHER N AND W THAN MAIN MODELS SHOW...ESPECIALLY THIS WINTER.

IN ANY CASE...COPIOUS QPF WILL SURGE BACK UP ACROSS OUR CWA FROM
LATE TUES AFTERNOON THROUGH TUES NT. PRELIM INDICATIONS ARE FOR AN
INCH OR SO...AND P-TYPE IS A BIG QUESTION. EVEN THE COLDER GFS AND
ECMWF SOLUTIONS BRING THICKNESSES TO 546 AREAWIDE FOR MOST OF THE
EVENT...ALTHOUGH 12Z GFS HAS A SUPPRESSED 0C 850 MB ISOTHERM OVER
NIAG FRONTIER (SLEET)...BUT NEARLY ALL THE SREF PLUMES SHOW A MIX OF SLEET
AND FREEZING RAIN AT BUF WITH ALMOST NO SNOW...SO WE CAN ASSUME IT
WILL BE WARM ENOUGH ALOFT TO PRECLUDE A MAJOR SNOWSTORM IN OUR
AREA. BUT...WITH INCREASING NE SFC WIND TUES EVE...TEMPS SHOULD BE
BELOW FREEZING EVERYWHERE...WITH POSSIBLE EXCEPTION OF SRN TIER
EARLY ON. THEREFORE WE LOOK FOR A MIX OF SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN
FOR MOST OF THE AREA...CHANGING TO SNOW AS SYSTEM PULLS EAST AFTER
06Z FROM WEST TO EAST. WE COULD SEE A SMALL ACCUM OF SNOW AT END
BUT MAIN PRECIP SHOULD BE OVER AT BUF BY 06-08Z WED AND BY AROUND
12Z WED E OF LK ONTARIO.

THERE IS ALSO THE CHANCE THAT A GOOD AMT OF QPF WILL FALL AS LIQUID
TUES PM AND EARLY EVE ACROSS SRN TIER BEFORE COLDER SFC AIR
ARRIVES SO WE MAY SOME HYDRO ISSUES. SEE BELOW.

WITH ALL THIS BEING CONSIDERED...AND AFTER COORDINATION WITH ALL
NEARBY OFFICES...IT WAS DECIDED TO HOLD OFF ON ANY WATCHES FOR
NOW. WE NEED AT LEAST 0.5 INCH OF ICE OR 7 INCHES OF SNOW FOR A
WARNING AND BECAUSE OF THE MIX OF EVERYTHING...CONFIDENCE IN
REACHING EITHER CRITERIA IS LOW...IT MAY BE MORE OF AN ADVISORY
EVENT INSTEAD. FUTURE SHIFTS WILL MONITOR THE SITUATION CLOSELY.

WED SHOULD SEE IMPROVING WX WITH DRYING AND TEMPS IN L30S.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
WEDNESDAY NIGHT, HIGH PRESSURE EXTENDING NORTH FROM THE OHIO VALLEY
TO NEW YORK WILL MOVE EAST WITH SOME CLOUDS INCREASING LATER WED NGT
AHEAD OF LOW PRESSURE MOVING EAST INTO THE CENTRAL LKS.

THURSDAY, LOW OVER THE CENTRAL LKS MOVES EAST AND BRINGS A CHANCE OF
SNOW SHWRS IN THE MRNG AND A MIX OF RAIN/SNOW SHWRS IN THE
AFTERNOON. THEN A CHANCE OF SNOW SHWRS THU NGT.

FRIDAY, LOW OVER WESTERN QUEBEC MOVES NE WITH A WESTERLY FLOW OF
COLDER AIR BEHIND THE LOW OVERSPREADING THE AREA. A MID LVL SHORT
WAVE MOVING NE ACROSS THE LWR LKS ALNG WITH CYCLONIC FLOW AND 850
TEMPS OF -4 TO -10C LWRING TO -12 TO -16C BRINGS INCREASING THREAT
OF SOME LK EEFECT SNOW SHWRS ESPCLY EAST OF LK ONTARIO. WILL GO WITH
CHC OF SNOW SHWRS ALL AREAS WITH GREATEST CHC EAST OF LK ONTARIO.

SATURDAY, LOW OVER THE CANADIAN MARITIMES WITH HIGH OVER THE LOWER
OHIO VALLEY RIDGING NE TWD THE LOWER LAKES DURG THE DAY. MAX TEMPS
WELL BELOW NORMAL WITH HIGHS IN THE MID 20S NORTH COUNTRY TO UPPER
20S TO LOWER 30S ELSEWHERE. A MID LVL TROUGH CROSSES THE AREA IN THE
MRNG AND THEN INTO ERLY AFT NORTH COUNTRY. WILL GO WITH CHC POPS FOR
SNOW SHWRS FOR THE BULK OF THE REGION IN THE MRNG AND PERSISTING
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON EAST OF LK ONTARIO DUE TO THE MID LVL TROUGH
AND 850 TEMPS COLD ENOUGH FOR LK EFFECT POTENTIAL EAST OF ONTARIO.

.AVIATION /06Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
WARM ADVECTION AT ALL LEVELS IS PRODUCING ENOUGH LIFT TO PRODUCE A
BAND OF LIGHT SHOWERS JUST WEST OF BUFFALO AND NIAGARA FALLS AS OF
05Z. THIS BAND WILL MOVE EASTWARD ACROSS ALL TAF SITES FOR AN HOUR
OR TWO OVERNIGHT BUT CIGS AND VSBYS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN VFR WITH
CLOUDS SCATTERING OUT BY MID DAY MONDAY. LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR WILL
DEVELOP OVERNIGHT AS WINDS IN THE 2K FOOT RANGE INCREASE TO 40 TO 55
KNOTS.

OUTLOOK...
MONDAY NIGHT...A COLD FRNT IS EXPECTED TO SLOWLY MOVE EAST ACROSS
THE REGION AND BRING FIRST SOME RAIN TO MUCH OF THE REGION THEN SOME
MIXED PRECIPITATION ESPCLY AFT 06Z. CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO LOWER
TO IFR WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME ICING PRBLMS FOR A PTN OF THE
AREA MNLY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TIER.
TUESDAY...MIXED PRECIPITATION WILL RESULT IN POTENTIAL SIG
IMPACTS ON AVIATION OPERATIONS.
WEDNESDAY...THE PRECIPITATION SHLD BE IN THE FORM OF SNOW SHWRS WITH
THE THREAT MNLY FROM THE GEN VALLEY EASTWARD IN THE MORNING AND
ENDING IN THE AFTERNOON.
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE EAST OF THE AREA WITH
VFR CONDITIONS THEN ANOTHER LOW MOVING NE FROM THE OHIO VALLEY WILL
BRING A CHANCE OF MORE PRECIPITATION THU NGT CHANGING TO SCT SNOW
SHWRS FRIDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
NO MARINE HEADLINES ARE NEEDED AT THIS TIME. LTR MONDAY NIGHT INTO
TUESDAY SMALL CRAFT ADVSRYS WILL PROBABLY BE NEEDED FOR PTNS OF LAKE
ONTARIO BEHIND A COLD FRNT THAT IS EXPECTED TO CROSS THE REGION.

NOTE...SINCE LAKE ERIE IS ALMOST ENTIRELY ICE COVERED...WAVES HAVE
BEEN OMITTED FROM THE NEARSHORE FORECAST.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
SNOW COVERS THE GROUND ACROSS OUR ENTIRE AREA BUT SWES ARE ONLY
MODEST ACROSS THE WEST. HOWEVER..RECENT VERY COLD WEATHER HAS
INCREASED THE EXTENT AND THICKNESS OF ICE IN THE CREEKS WITH
RESIDUAL ICE JAMS FROM PREVIOUS THAWS IN PLACE. MONDAYS DRAMATIC
WARMUP WILL INCREASE MOVEMENT OF THE ICE...WITH TDHS (THAWING DEG
HOURS) REACHING THE 300 THRESHOLD BY MON EVENING. HEAVY QPF WILL
BRING POTENTIAL FOR MORE WIDESPREAD PROBLEMS TUES PM AND
NIGHT...IF MUCH OF IT FALLS AS LIQUID. THIS LOOKS UNLIKELY FOR
MOST OF OUR AREA...ALTHOUGH THREAT REMAINS ACROSS ALLEGHENY BASIN. SITUATION
WILL BE MONITORED.
