Area forecast discussion, Jul 16, 7:30 PM EDT, 0 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY 730 PM EDT THU JUL 16 2009 .SYNOPSIS... WEAK HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD TO OUR SOUTH AS A STATIONARY FRONT STALLS TO OUR EAST OVERNIGHT. ANY STORMS WILL END BY MIDNIGHT. THERE WILL BE AREAS OF FOG OVERNIGHT. AREA OF LOW PRESSURE MOVING ALONG THE STALLED OUT BOUNDARY WILL LIKELY PRODUCE RAINFALL IMPACTING THE REGION TO BEGIN THE WEEKEND. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH HAS BEEN ALLOWED TO EXPIRE. AS 830 PM...THERE WAS STILL ONE WARNING OUT FOR LITCHFIELD COUNTY...BUT THAT STORM WILL BE WILL EXIT BY 900 PM. ELSEWHERE...JUST A FEW LEFT OVER SHOWERS...PERHAPS A RUMBLE OF THUNDER OVER THE REMAINDER OF THE MID HUDSON VALLEY...WITH THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE REGION NOW CONVECTIVE FREE. SO...WILL CARRY CHANCES/SLIGHT CHANCES (SCATTERED/ISOLATED) WE EXPECT A CLEAR TO PARTLY CLOUDY SKY OVERNIGHT. WITH A WET GROUND IN MANY PLACES AND LIGHT WIND...WE DO EXPECT AREAS OF FOG TO FORM. TEMPERATURES DROPPED QUITE A BIT...BUT WILL LIKELY NOT DROP A WHOLE LOT MORE AS DEWPOINTS ARE HIGH. WILL LEAVE OVERNIGHT LOWS ALONE. NO OTHER CHANGES TO ANY LATER PERIODS. && .SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD WANE QUICKLY WITH THE LOSS OF THE DIURNAL HEATING...AND SFC FRONT SLIPPING THROUGH. THE SFC COLD FRONT IS WEAK WITH ONLY MINIMAL COLD AIR ADVECTION EVIDENT AT H850. THE BOUNDARY WILL BECOME STATIONARY JUST EAST OF THE FORECAST AREA...IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL SAG SOUTH OF THE CAPITAL REGION BASED ON THE SHORT TERM GUIDANCE. PATCHY FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE DUE TO THE MOIST GROUND FROM THE POTENTIAL CONVECTION. LEFT SOME SLIGHT CHANCES OF SHOWERS SOUTH OF THE CAPITAL REGION AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH THE FRONT PASSING. LOWS WILL BE IN THE LOWER 60S FROM THE CAPITAL REGION SOUTH...EXCEPT SOME MID AND UPPER 50S NORTH...AND OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN. ON FRIDAY...A GREAT LAKES CUTOFF /QUITE COMMON ACCORDING TO CSTAR RESEARCH IN JULY...ESPEC THIS JULY !/ CONTINUE TO SPIN NEAR THE UPPER PENINSULA OF MI. SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT CONTINUES OVER THE REGION WITH MINOR PIECES OF SHORT WAVE ENERGY MOVING THROUGH. NO REAL CLEAR FOCUS FOR CONVECTION...BUT WEAK INSTABILITY COUPLED WITH MARGINAL LOW AND MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES MAY ALLOW POP UP SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ESPECIALLY OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN. THE VALLEY LOCATIONS MAY STAY DRY DUE TO A WEAK LOW LEVEL CAP EVIDENT ON THE BUFKIT PROFILES FOR KALB/KPOU/KGFL. WITH H850 TEMPS RANGING BETWEEN +14TO +16C...COULD NOT SEE ANY 90S (WHICH THE MAV STILL INDICATES FOR KPOU) BUT WENT MID TO UPPER 80S MID HUDSON VALLEY...MID 70S TO LOWER 80S HIGHER TERRAIN. THIS WILL MAKE FRIDAY THE WARMEST DAY OF THIS MONTH. FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY...UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN RETURNS WITH A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE IMPACTING THE REGION FROM THE MID ATLANTIC REGION. THIS SFC WAVE MOVES ALONG THE ERN EDGE OF THE UPPER TROUGH IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE CUTOFF. THE SFC WAVE INTENSIFIES A BIT SINCE IT FORMS NEAR THE RIGHT REAR QUADRANT/RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF AN H250 JET STREAK. WE ARE EXPECTING OVER RUNNING RAINFALL WITH THE WARM FRONT EXTENDING NORTHEAST OF THE SFC WAVE TO COMMENCE AROUND MIDNIGHT...OR SHORTLY THEREAFTER FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST ACROSS THE FCST AREA. THIS AREA APPEARS TO BE A BIT FASTER THAN PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT WHICH MEAN IT SHOULD BE MAINLY EAST OF OUR REGION BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON. WE CONTINUE WITH LIKELY POPS OVERNIGHT. PWAT VALUES APPROACH 1.75" NEAR THE CAPITAL DISTRICT AND POINTS SOUTH AND EAST.. RAIN WILL CONTINUE INTO SATURDAY...MOVING OUT DURING THE AFTERNOON. THE SHOWALTER VALUES ARE NOW AROUND 0C (OR EVEN A LITTLE BELOW THAT FROM ALBANY SOUTHWARD) THEREFORE WILL INTRODUCE A SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDER OVERNIGHT BUT THIS LOOKS TO BE PRIMARILY A STRATIFORM EVENT. THE DRY SLOT...MOVING IN LATER SATURDAY MIGHT ALLOW THE AFTERNOON TO BE SALVAGEABLE. RAISED TEMPS A CATEGORY ON SATURDAY AFTERNOON DUE TO A LITTLE MORE SUNSHINE AFTERNOON EXPECTED. LOOK FOR TEMPS 75-80 HUDSON VALLEY...70-75 ELSEWHERE. RIGHT NOW...SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY LOOK PRIMARILY DRY. KEEP SOME SLIGHT CHANCES EVERYWHERE SATURDAY EVENING AND ONLY IN THE ADIRONDACKS SUNDAY AFTERNOON. OTHERWISE...SUNDAY LOOKS MAINLY DRY WITH SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS SUMMER...A BERMUDA TYPE HIGH LOOKS TO FORM DURING THIS PERIOD. MEANWHILE...ANOTHER CUTOFF LOW WILL "LURK" TO THE WEST OVER THE GREAT LAKES. INITIALLY...WITH WEAK RIDGING...WE THINK MAINLY DRY WEATHER MIGHT PERSIST INTO MONDAY (EXCEPT FOR SLIGHT CHANCES AGAIN TO OUR NW). WITH TIME HOWEVER...PWATS WILL INCREASE WITH AN INCREASINGLY SSW FLOW...AND THE UPPER AIR LOW APPROACHES CLOSER. THE LOW COMING CLOSER WILL PRODUCE COOLING ALOFT AND INCREASED INSTABILITY. THIS SCENARIO WILL RESULT IN INCREASING CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS AS WE HEAD INTO TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. FOR A CHANGE...TEMPERATURES LOOK TO BE CLOSE TO NORMAL DURING THIS TIME FRAME...WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS POSSIBLY RUNNING A LITTLE ABOVE NORMAL. IT WILL BE MORE HUMID THAN IT HAS BEEN MUCH OF THIS SUMMER AS WELL. && .AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... THUNDERSTORMS IMPACTED ALBANY INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT EARLIER AND WERE JUST DONE AT DUTCHESS COUNTY AIRPORT AS OF THIS RELEASE. BEHIND THE STORMS THE ATMOSPHERE HAS STABILIZED AND ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS ARE UNLIKELY. (CARRY VCTS UNTIL 01Z IN THE KPOU TAF). WITH A MAINLY CLEAR SKY IN THE WAKE OF THE STORMS AND LIGHT WIND...THE STAGE SHOULD BE SET FOR IFR FOG...ESPECIALLY AT KALB WHERE THE GROUND IS SATURATED. WILL CARRY IFR FROM 06-07Z AT ALL TAFS (IT LOOKS AS A STORM SHOULD DEPOSIT A DECENT AMOUNT OF RAIN AT KPOU). THE FOG MIGHT BRIEFLY LIFT INTO STRATUS AROUND SUNRISE...SO CARRIED MVFR CONDITIONS UNTIL ABOUT 12-13Z AT ALL TAFS. ANY STRATUS WILL QUICKLY BREAK UP...AND AFTER THAT...WE WILL BE LEFT WITH VFR CONDITIONS THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE DAY. A SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WIND WILL PREVAIL UNDER 10KTS. OUTLOOK... FRI NITE...MVFR. CIG. RA LKLY AND POSSIBLE IFR. SAT...MVFR/IFR EARLY WITH CIG/SHRAS...IMPROVING TO VFR LATE IN THE DAY. SUN/MON...VFR. NO SIG WX. TUE...VFR. CHC PM THUNDERSTORMS. && .HYDROLOGY... THE RAINFALL FROM CONVECTION THROUGH THIS EVENING SHOULD HAVE LITTLE IMPACT ON THE MAIN STEM RIVERS. STORMS WILL BE MOVING AROUND 30 MPH WHICH SHOULD MITIGATE ANY HEAVY RAINFALL TOTALS IN ONE LOCATION...ESPECIALLY SINCE THE PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES ARE ONLY SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL FOR TODAY. SOME SHARP RISES ON STREAMS WILL BE POSSIBLE IF A QUICK INCH OR SO FALLS IN AN HOUR OR LESS. A WARM AND HUMID AIR MASS WILL CONTINUE TO BE OVER THE REGION FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES JUMPING TO ABOUT 1.50 TO 2 INCHES FROM THE CAPITAL REGION SOUTH. SOME HEAVY DOWNPOURS FROM A WARM FRONT AND A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVING NORTHEAST NEAR THE ATLANTIC SEABOARD MAY PRODUCE A HALF AN INCH TO AN INCH OF BASIN AVERAGE RAINFALL...WITH SOME LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS OVER THE HOUSATONIC BASIN POSSIBLE. EXPECT SOME MINOR WITHIN BANK RISES ON RIVERS...BUT NO WIDESPREAD HYDRO PROBLEMS AT THIS TIME. && .ALY WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CT...NONE. NY...NONE. MA...NONE.
