AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE UPTON NY
525 PM EDT MON JUN 16 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
A TROUGH AND COLD FRONT ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH THE REGION
THE EVENING THROUGH TONIGHT...WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
ACCOMPANYING THESE FEATURES. AN UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL THEN SETTLE
TO THE NORTH AND LINGER THROUGH THE WEEK WITH UNSETTLED WEATHER
AND COOLER THAN NORMAL TEMPERATURES ANTICIPATED.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...

MESOSCALE UPDATE...
SQUALL LINE STRETCHING NE TO SW FROM THE MID HUDSON VALLEY TO NE
PA...ALONG PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH...WILL SINK SE INTO ORANGE AND
PUTNAM COUNTIES WITHIN THE HOUR...AND THROUGH MUCH OF THE LOWER
HUDSON VALLEY...NE NJ...AND SW CONN THROUGH AROUND 7 PM. ENTERING
NYC AREA BETWEEN 7 AND 8 PM. WITH LIS  AND MLCAPES AROUND 1000
J/KG ACROSS NYC/NE JERSEY/LOWER HUDSON VALLEY/SW CONN THE LINE
SHOULD MAINTAIN ITS STRENGTH AS IT WORKS SE THROUGH AROUND 8 PM.
SMALL HAIL AND WIND GUSTS UP TO 50 MPH ARE EXPECTED WITH THE LINE.
RAINFALL RATES IN EXCESS OF 1 INCH PER HOUR ARE POSSIBLE WITH THE
LINE. ANY BOWING SEGMENTS MAY PRODUCE EVEN STRONGER WINDS THAT
WILL HAVE TO BE DEALT WITH BY SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNINGS. THE
LINE IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN AS IT TREKS SE OF NYC AND INTO SE CONN
THROUGH THE LATE EVENING AS IT ENCOUNTERS A MORE STABLE MARINE
AIRMASS.

ANY ROTATING CELLS THAT DEVELOP AHEAD OF THE SQUALL LINE OVER THE
NEXT FEW HOURS...ACROSS THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY/SW CONN/NE NJ/NYC
HAVE THE CAPABILITY OF PRODUCING LARGE HAIL IN ADDITION TO WIND
GUSTS

THE CONVECTION ALONG THE PRE- FRONTAL TROUGH IS BEING AIDED BY
FORCING FROM AN APPROACHING MID-LEVEL JET STREAK...AND HEIGHT
FALLS AND INCREASING DEEP LAYER SHEAR AHEAD OF AN UPPER LOW DIVING
SOUTHEAST FROM THE GREAT LAKES.

A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH FROM SPC CONTINUES FOR THE WESTERN
HALF OF THE CWA UNTIL 1Z AS 30-40 KT OF UNIDIRECTIONAL SHEAR AND
STRONG MID LEVEL FLOW SHOULD SUPPORT SOME BOWING LINE SEGMENT AND
SUPERCELL DEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE
HAIL WILL BE MAIN THREATS WITH ANY SEVERE STORMS.

SOUTHERLY FLOW OFF COOL OCEAN WATERS AND STRONG INVERSION HAS KEPT
MARINE LAYER INTACT ACROSS EASTERN LI AND SE CONN AND SHOULD KEEP
SEVERE THREAT TO A MINIMUM THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. STILL WITH THE
AVAILABLE FORCING AND MARGINAL ELEVATED INSTABILITY...A FEW STRONG
STORMS TO ISOLATED SEVERE ARE POSSIBLE. WOULD THINK LARGE HAIL
WOULD BE MAIN SEVERE THREAT...WITH GUSTY WINDS...AND HEAVY RAIN.

COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE REGION AFTER MIDNIGHT...AND THEN SLOWLY
TRACKS EAST THROUGH TUESDAY MORNING AS STACKED LOW DIVES ACROSS
THE GREAT LAKES REGION.

SHOWERS AND TSTMS LIKELY CONTINUE AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT AS IT
TRACKS W TO E FROM AROUND 06Z THROUGH TUES MORNING. BUT WITH
ATMOSPHERIC UPHEAVAL IN WAKE OF PRE-FRONTAL CONVECTION AND LOSS OF
DAYTIME INSTABILITY...WIDESPREAD SEVERE THREAT WILL DIMINISH AFTER
MIDNIGHT. BUT SOME STRONG STORMS AND AN ISOLATED SEVERE STORM
STILL POSSIBLE WITH LEFT FRONT QUAD OF JET FORCING OVER THE
REGION...30 TO 35 KT UNIDIRECTIONAL DEEP LAYER SHEAR...AND A
MARGINALLY UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY/...
ANOMALOUSLY STRONG CLOSED LOW WILL MEANDER THROUGH THE EASTERN GREAT
LAKES AND INTERIOR NORTHEAST THROUGH THE PERIOD. WITH ITS ASSOCIATED
COLD POOL WORKING OVER THE REGION...A SERIES OF WEAK SHORTWAVES
ROTATE AROUND THE UPPER LOW...AND DAYTIME HEATING...LOOKING FOR
DIURNALLY DRIVEN SHRA/ISOLD TSRA ACTIVITY THROUGH THE PERIOD.

ON TUESDAY...SHORTWAVE AND COLD FRONT WORK EAST OF THE REGION TUES
MORNING...WITH SHRA/TSRA ACTIVITY WORKING EAST BY MIDDAY. IN ITS
WAKE...LOW-MID LEVEL WESTERLY FLOW SHOULD ALLOW FOR PARTIAL
CLEARING. ANOTHER SHORTWAVE APPROACHES NW SECTIONS LATER IN THE
AFTERNOON WITH LEADING EDGE OF ASSOCIATED MID-LEVEL COLD POOL.

WITH MORNING SUNSHINE AND OFFSHORE FLOW...TEMPS SHOULD CLIMB TO
NEAR NORMAL LEVELS. SLIGHT CHANCE FOR AFTERNOON CONVECTION NW OF NYC
WITH STEEPENED MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES...DAYTIME HEATING AND
APPROACHING SHORTWAVE. TEMPERATURES GENERALLY IN THE UPPER 70S TO
AROUND 80 DEGREES.

TUESDAY NIGHT SHOULD REMAIN MAINLY DRY...ALTHOUGH AN ISOLATED SHOWER
POSSIBLE EARLY. TEMPS SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL WITH WEAK CAA.

CLOSED LOW SINKS FURTHER SE ACROSS NORTHERN NY AND CENTRAL NEW
ENGLAND ON WEDNESDAY. STRONGER SHORTWAVE PIVOTS AROUND CLOSED LOW
AND THROUGH REGION WED AFTERNOON/EVE WITH SURFACE TROUGH WORKING
ACROSS THE REGION. WOULD EXPECT BETTER CHANCE OF INSTABILITY
SHOWERS AND A FEW LOW TOPPED THUNDERSHOWERS ON WEDNESDAY WITH
MARGINAL INSTABILITY SURFACE AND ALOFT. SMALL HAIL POTENTIAL WITH
ANY CONVECTION WITH COLD POOL ALOFT. WITH COLD TEMPS ALOFT AND
PLENTY OF INSTABILITY CLOUD COVER...WOULD EXPECT TEMPS TO RUN
SEVERAL DEGREES BELOW NORMAL...LOWER 70S CITY/COAST AND UPPER 60S
TO AROUND 70 INTERIOR.

CLOSED LOW PULLS NORTH INTO NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND ON THURSDAY...WITH
DEEP TROUGH AXIS HOLDING TO THE WEST OF THE CWA. VORT LOBE APPEARS
TO APPROACH REGION FROM SW ON THURSDAY...WHICH SHOULD ONCE AGAIN
BRING THE CHANCE FOR LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING INSTABILITY SHRA.
WITH COLD POOL PULLING NORTH OF THE REGION...WOULD THINK
CONVECTION WOULD BE ISOLATED. TEMPS CONTINUE TO RUN BELOW
SEASONABLE(LOWER 70S)WITH INSTABILITY CLOUD COVER AND 850 HPA
TEMPS AROUND 8C.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
GRADUAL FILLING AND LIFTING OF ANOMALOUS EAST COAST TROUGH IS
FORECAST TO START THURSDAY...THOUGH THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY SLOW
PROCESS WITH LONG WAVE RETROGRADING SLOWLY WESTWARD OVER THE
WEEKEND.

00Z NAEFS ALONG WITH 00Z ECMWF AND 12Z OPERATIONAL GFS WERE
EXAMINED. UNCERTAINTY INCREASES WITH THE DEPTH OF THE TROUGH THROUGH
THE WEEKEND. THE SHORTWAVE ENERGY SEEN IN THE 12Z GFS AND 00Z ECMWF
AFFECTING OUR REGION FOR SUNDAY AFTERNOON IS LOW CONFIDENCE BASED ON
NAEFS.

TEMPS SHOULD RETURN TO NEAR NORMAL BY SATURDAY AS TROUGH CONTINUES
LIFTING.

WILL ALLOW FOR CONTINUATION OF CHANCE DIURNAL (AFTN/EVE) CONVECTION
ON FRIDAY AS INSTABILITY CONTINUES WITH COLD POOL ALOFT. TOTAL TOTAL
INDICES IN THE MID 50S AND LIS IN THE -2 TO -4 C RANGE.

WHILE HAVE DRIED THINGS OUT FOR SATURDAY AFTN/EVE AS COLD POOL ALOFT
SHOULD WARM ENOUGH TO LIMIT CONVECTION - THINK AT LEAST ISOLATED
CONVECTION WOULD REMAIN - 20 POP USED.

CHANCE CONVECTION RETURNS SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS AT LEAST A FAIR CHANCE
OF A SIGNIFICANT SHORTWAVE AND SEVERE WX. 12Z GFS SOUNDINGS PRODUCE
A VERY UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE - 2000 J/KG AND LIS OF -6 C.

&&

.AVIATION /21Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
SHORT WAVE MOVING ACROSS AREA AND APPROACHING PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH
HELPING TO BREAK UP MARINE INFLUENCE ATTM. KGON XPCTD TO HOLD ON VLIFR
TIL ABT 22Z AS COOL MARINE LAYER REMAINS OVER SE CT.

SVR POTENTIAL FOR ALL TAF SITES INCREASING THRU LATE AFTERNOON.
BEST PROB FOR STRONG WINDS AFT 20Z. WINDS AHD OF OF PRE-FRONTAL
TROUGH GENERALLY SSW BUT WILL VEER TO THE W AND SW AFT PASSAGE
AROUND 02Z.  ANOTHER ROUND OF SUB MVFR CONDS XPCTD WITH COLD FRONT
AROUND 06Z BUT CONFIDENCE ON TIMING IS LOW.

OUTLOOK FOR 18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...XPCT PERIODS OF LOW END
VFR OR MVFR CONDITIONS TO PERSIST THROUGH THE WEEK AS COOL UPPER
TROUGH SETTLES ACROSS THE AREA. CONDITIONS IMPROVE THURSDAY NIGHT
INTO FRIDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS FROM THE WEST.

&&

.MARINE...
SLY WINDS OF 10 TO 15 KT WITH SOME GUSTS TO 20 KT THIS AFTERNOON
AS A PRE-FRONTAL TROF APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. SFC COLD FRONT
MOVES ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS LATE TONIGHT/EARLY TUES...BETWEEN
06Z AND 12Z TUE. WINDS WILL VEER AROUND TO THE SW THIS
EVENING...THEN TO THE W BEHIND THE FRONT. WINDS AND SEAS ARE
FORECAST TO REMAIN BELOW SCA BOTH AHEAD AND BEHIND THE FRONT.
PLENTY OF SHRA LATE THIS AFTERNOON/TONIGHT AHEAD/ALONG PRE-FRONTAL
TROUGH AND COLD FRONT.

POST-FRONTAL WINDS WILL GUST UP TO 20 KT ON THE WATERS FROM TUE INTO
WED MORNING. SEAS ARE FORECAST TO REMAIN BELOW SCA CRITERIA.

SEVERAL TROUGHS WILL MOVE ACROSS THE WATERS WED INTO FRI AS A BROAD
AREA OF LOW PRESSURE REMAINS NEARLY STATIONARY OVER SE CANADA.
SUB-SCA CONDITIONS EXPECTED DURING THIS TIME.

WAVES AND WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY
THROUGH THE WEEKEND...BUT AFTERNOON CONVECTION IS POSSIBLE EACH DAY.
THE BEST CHANCE OF CONVECTION WOULD BE FRIDAY AND SUNDAY AFTERNOONS.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT WILL
PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS WITH AVERAGE RAINFALL AMOUNTS
GENERALLY BETWEEN HALF INCH TO AN INCH OF RAIN. LOCALLY HIGHER
AMOUNTS OF OVER AN INCH ARE POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY IN ANY ORGANIZED
LINES OF THUNDERSTORMS. I CANNOT RULE OUT BRIEF RAINFALL AMOUNTS
OF AN INCH PER HOUR...BUT RELATIVELY FAST STORM MOTION SHOULD BE
ENOUGH TO AVOID TRAINING ECHOES AND THUS A PROLONGED HEAVY
RAINFALL.

THE NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER IS FORECASTING A MODERATE RISK OF
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

THE THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUES ACROSS THE AREA THIS
AFTERNOON. A COMBINATION OF INCREASING INSTABILITY...STRONG WINDS
ALOFT...AND A COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE LOWER GREAT LAKES
REGION WILL SPARK THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRONG TO SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS...WITH DAMAGING WINDS THE MAIN THREAT. VERY HEAVY
RAIN AND HAIL ARE ALSO POSSIBLE.

COOLER CONDITIONS...WITH CLOUD COVER AND DRIZZLE...SHOULD LIMIT THE
SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FARTHER EAST ACROSS SOUTHEAST CONNECTICUT AND
CENTRAL AND EASTERN LONG ISLAND.

ANYONE WITH OUTDOOR PLANS TODAY SHOULD REVIEW SEVERE WEATHER AND
LIGHTNING SAFETY RULES...KEEP AN EYE TO THE SKY...AND BE PREPARED TO
MOVE TO A SAFE PLACE AT THE FIRST SIGN OF THREATENING WEATHER.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO AND OTHER MEDIA FOR POSSIBLE
