AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE UPTON NY
142 PM EDT SAT AUG 2 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL CROSS THE TRI-STATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING...WITH ITS TRAILING COLD FRONT MOVING OFFSHORE AFTER
MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE ACROSS THE
REGION FROM SUNDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE MOVES ACROSS
THE AREA ON TUESDAY FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM ON
WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
UPDATED FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 791 THROUGH 6 PM FOR THE
ENTIRE CWA. UPPED POPS TO 90 PCT CWA WIDE. WITH BRN OF 35-50
ACROSS CWA...HAVE POTENTIAL FOR MIXED MODES BOTH SUPER CELLS AND
MULTI-CELLULAR. LOOKING AT 3KM EHI...THIS SUGGESTS POTENTIAL FOR
ISOLATED SUPER CELLS IS GREATEST LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING
ACROSS THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY AND NORTHERN CONNECTICUT ZONES AS
REGION GETS INTO LF QUAD OF 80KT POLAR JET...AND IS IN NOSE OF LOW
LEVEL JET AS WELL. NOTING DEEP DRY LEVEL AT MID LEVELS ON 12Z
SOUNDING SO POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR DAMAGING WIND GUSTS...WITH A
GREATER THAN NORMAL CHANCE OF 60+ MPH WINDS (AN 80+ MPH MICRO BURST
WOULD NOT SURPRISE ME). BACKING FLOW AHEAD OF LOW...COUPLED WITH
ISALLABARIC BACKING DUE TO PRESSURE FALLS AHEAD OF DEVELOPING
SURFACE LOW...WILL HELP KEEP LOW LEVEL HELICITY AT LEVELS
SUPPORTING POTENTIAL TORNADIC DEVELOPMENT...ESPECIALLY WITH AN
SUPER CELLS. WITH PWS PROGGED TO 1.5-1.75 INCHES LOCALIZED
FLOODING POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY WITH TRAINING OF CELLS.

MINOR CHANGES MADE TO REMAINDER OF FORECAST IN NEAR TERM.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
BASE OF ANOMALOUSLY STRONG UPPER LOW PIVOTS THRU AREA SUN INTO
SUN NIGHT...AND EAST ON MON.

WOULD EXPECT ISOLATED TO SCT INSTABILITY SHRA/TSRA DEVELOPMENT DUE
TO VORT ENERGY ROUNDING BASE OF TROUGH...RESIDUAL LOW-LEVEL
MOISTURE AND STEEP LAPSE RATES. BEST CHANCE ACROSS NORTHERN
ZONES...CLOSER TO UPPER LOW COLD POOL. HIGH TEMPS WILL LIKELY BE
AT OR SLIGHTLY BELOW SEASONABLE (LOWER 80S NORTHERN ZONES/ MID 80S
CITY/COAST) AS 850 HPA TEMPS WILL BE AROUND 13/14C AND WITH PLENTY
OF INSTABILITY CU DEVELOPMENT.

SKIES CLEAR OUT SUN NIGHT AS TROUGH AXIS MOVES ACROSS...WITH DEEP
NW FLOW IN ITS WAKE. TEMPS SLIGHTLY BELOW SEASONABLE IN CANADIAN
AIRMASS.

STACKED LOW SLOWLY MOVES INTO GULF OF MAINE ON MON...WITH
CONTINUED DEEP NW FLOW. SEASONABLY WARM CONDITIONS EXPECTED IN
MODIFYING CANADIAN AIRMASS. ONE MORE SHORTWAVE ROUNDING BASE OF
DEPARTING LOW COULD HAVE INSTABILITY CU AND ISOLATED SHRA
DEVELOPING ACROSS N AND E ZONES MON AFTERNOON. MOSTLY SUNNY AS ONE
WORKS FURTHER SW.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
HEIGHTS WILL RISE ON TUE AS TROUGH MOVES EAST AND THE RIDGE OVER
THE PLAINS AND SE TRIES TO BUILD INTO THE NORTHEAST...BUT A VORTEX
OVER HUDSON BAY WILL CAUSE A SQUEEZE PLAY OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS
INTO THE NORTHEAST WITH THE FLOW FLATTENING. THIS WILL RESULT IN
ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES THE FIRST HALF OF THE WEEK...BUT THE
EXTREME HEAT WILL REMAIN CONFINED TO THE OHIO VALLEY...MID
ATLANTIC AND SE. BY THU...THE RIDGE OVER THE SE BREAKS DOWN AND
THE VORTEX SLIDES SE INTO SE CANADA WITH MORE SEASONABLE
TEMPERATURES RETURNING.

DRY THROUGH TUE NIGHT WITH HIGH PRESSURE IN PLACE. WARM FRONT
PASSES NW OF THE AREA ON WED. CANT RULE OUT A SHOWER OR TSTM
MAKING IT INTO WESTERN PARTS OF THE AREA SO HAVE SCHC POPS.
UNSETTLED WX LIKELY CONTINUES THROUGH THU AS A COLD FRONT
APPROACHES WED NIGHT AND MOVES THROUGH SLOWLY...POSSIBLY STALLING
OUT JUST SOUTH OF LONG ISLAND.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
CLUSTER OF SHOWERS/TSTMS MOVING EAST ACROSS MUCH OF LI/SRN CT...
THEN NEED TO TURN ATTENTION TO ANY ADDITIONAL TSTM DEVELOPMENT
THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON...AND INTO THIS EVENING.
AIRMASS PRIMED FOR ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT...AND WITH FAVORABLE
CONDITIONS IN THE UPPER LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE...COULD ONCE
AGAIN OBSERVE MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS...WITH ISOLATED LIFR IN HEAVIER
TSTMS.

OTHERWISE...LIGHT AND VARIABLE WIND FLOW...TO WEST/SOUTHWEST
THIS EVENING...THEN NORTHWEST AS WEAK LOW PRESSURE PASSES EAST.
AS CONVECTION WINDS DOWN THIS EVENING...A FEW LOCATIONS COULD
OBSERVE SOME FOG...WITH MVFR POSSIBLE. OTHERWISE...SKIES CLEAR A
BIT WITH VFR THROUGHOUT. I DO NOT ANTICIPATE ANY STRATUS AT THIS
TIME.

BY SUNDAY MORNING...NORTHWEST WINDS BACK SLIGHTLY TO THE WEST AT
AROUND 10 KTS. VFR THROUGH THE MORNING.

OUTLOOK FOR 18Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...
ANY ISOLATED TSTM POSSIBLE SUNDAY AFTERNOON WITH UPPER LOW
OVERHEAD. SUB-VFR POSSIBLE. HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BUILDS SUNDAY
NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY. NEXT SHORTWAVE AND ASSOCIATED LOW PRESSURE
COULD RESULT IN SUB VFR TUE NIGHT THROUGH WED. HIGH PRESSURE
RETURNS WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
ONLY CHANGES WITH MORNING UPDATE WAS TO MODIFY PRECIP
WORDING/TIMING AND REFLECT WATCH BOX OVER ALL WATERS. PREVIOUS
DISCUSSION FOLLOWS...

WINDS/SEAS EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CRITERIA ON
AREA WATERS THROUGH THE PERIOD...WITH SEAS GENERALLY 2-3 FT ON THE
OCEAN AND 1 FT OR LESS ON THE SOUND/HARBOR/BACK BAYS.

LOW PRES WILL DEVELOP ALONG A NEARLY STATIONARY BOUNDARY JUST SOUTH
OF LONG ISLAND...AND THAT WAVE WILL TRACK THROUGH THE WATERS LATER
TODAY. A COLD FRONT WILL THEN SWING THROUGH THE WATERS THIS EVENING.
CONVECTION WILL BE DEVELOPING ON THE WATERS...PRODUCING HEAVY
RAIN...STRONG WINDS AND DANGEROUS LIGHTNING. STORMS MAY BECOME
STRONG ENOUGH TO PRODUCE A WATERSPOUT.

CONDITIONS DRY OUT TONIGHT AS HIGH PRES BUILDS OVER THE AREA. WITH
LOW PRES REMAINING IN THE GULF OF MAINE...ANOTHER ROUND OF
CONVECTION WILL BE POSSIBLE SUN AFTERNOON.

CONDITIONS EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW ADVISORY LEVELS FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. SEAS COULD APPROACH SCA LEVELS ON
THE OCEAN LATE WED NIGHT/THU UNDER A STRENGTHENING SOUTHERLY FLOW.

WITH ASTRONOMICAL HIGH TIDE FALLING SLIGHTLY FOR THIS EVENING HIGH
TIDE...EXPECTING MINOR COASTAL FLOODING IN SOUTH SHORE BACK BAYS
TO BE ISOLATED AND MARGINAL AT BEST.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
FRONTAL SYSTEM AFFECTS REGION TODAY INTO THIS EVENING...WITH
POTENTIAL FOR BETWEEN ONE-HALF AND ONE INCH OF RAINFALL TODAY.
LOCALLY HEAVIER AMOUNTS WITH LOW CHANCE OF URBAN FLASH FLOODING
POSSIBLE WHERE CELLS TRAIN...MOST LIKELY IN VICINITY OF WARM
FRONT.
