AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
1244 PM EST SUN DEC 27 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK AREA OF LOW PRESSURE NEAR LONG ISLAND WILL MOVE SLOWLY
NORTH INTO NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND TODAY. LOW PRESSURE WILL RACE FROM
EASTERN GREAT LAKES TO NEW ENGLAND MONDAY...AND DRAG AN ARCTIC
FRONT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. IT WILL USHER IN BITTER COLD TUESDAY.
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE FROM THE GREAT
PLAINS TO THE ATLANTIC SEABOARD. ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM WILL
APPROACH FROM THE SOUTHWEST TO END THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
AS OF 11 AM EST...SCATTERED LIGHT/MODERATE RAIN SHOWERS...AND PATCHY
DRIZZLE PERSIST ACROSS THE UPPER HUDSON VALLEY/SOUTHERN DACKS...INTO
SOUTHERN VT. THIS SHOULD GRADUALLY END FROM SW TO NE OVER THE NEXT
1-2 HOURS. OTHERWISE...EXPECT AT LEAST SOME BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS TO
DEVELOP FOR AREAS NEAR AND W OF THE HUDSON RIVER...ALTHOUGH SOME
CLOUDS WILL LIKELY REDEVELOP GIVEN MOIST BOUNDARY LAYER ONCE MIXING
DEEPENS. THUS...THE RELATIVELY CLEAR SKIES CURRENTLY OCCURRING OVER
CENTRAL NYS MOST LIKELY WILL NOT BE QUITE AS CLEAR UPON REACHING OUR
REGION...AND WILL INDICATE PARTLY SUNNY SKIES FOR MUCH OF THE
AREA...EXCEPT FOR REMAINING MOSTLY CLOUDY ACROSS W-FACING HIGHER
ELEVATIONS WITHIN SOUTHERN VT AND THE NORTHERN BERKS DUE TO
DEVELOPING UPSLOPE CONDITIONS.

AS FOR MAX TEMPS...GIVEN TEMPS ALREADY RUNNING A BIT HIGHER THAN
MOST GUIDANCE WITHIN THE MID HUDSON VALLEY...HAVE NUDGED THESE TEMPS
A FEW DEGREES HIGHER...WITH TEMPS NEARING 50 SHORTLY AFTER NOONTIME.
ELSEWHERE...EXPECT MAINLY LOWER/MID 40S WITHIN THE HUDSON RIVER
VALLEY...AND UPPER 30S/LOWER 40S ACROSS HIGHER ELEVATIONS. TEMPS
SHOULD PEAK EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...BEFORE NOTABLY DROPPING DURING
THE MID/LATE AFTERNOON HOURS AS COLD ADVECTION/MIXING INTENSIFIES.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FOLLOWS...

OCCLUDED FRONT WILL PASS THROUGH REGION WITHIN A FEW HOURS OF
DAYBREAK...AS SFC LOW REACHES LONG ISLAND. WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE
OCCLUSION RAIN WILL LARGELY SHUT OFF FROM WEST TO EAST...WHILE
DRIZZLE WILL LINGER A FEW MORE HOURS. IT WILL ALSO PUSH THE LOW
LEVEL JET AND HIGH WINDS EAST OF REGION. AS SUCH WILL TERMINATE
ALL ADVISORIES FOR FREEZING RAIN WITH 4AM UPDATE. AS WINDS ARE
STILL GUSTING NEAR ADVISORY CRITERIA ON GREEN MOUNTAINS..WILL
LEAVE WIND ADVISORY AND LET IT EXPIRE AT 6AM.

THE SFC LOWS TRIP UP THE I-95 WILL BE GRADUAL REACHING BOSTON BY
NOON AND MAINE DURING THE EVENING. FCA IS IN DRY SLOT DURING THE
AFTN AND EVENING TODAY...BUT MOST OF THE DRYING IS UPSTAIRS...AND
WITH WEAK INVERSION PERSISTING AROUND 8KFT LOW CLOUDS WILL
DISSIPATE SLOWLY WITH BKN- SCT CONDS LATE IN THE DAY AND DURING THE
EVENING BEFORE THE NEXT SYSTEM.

THE MASSIVE 500HPA CUTOFF IS LURKING OVER OHIO AND IT WILL MOVE
INTO NEW YORK OVERNIGHT PUSHING CLOUDS AND LIGHT SNOW INTO NEW
YORK...AS WELL AS THE FIRST CDFNT. NAM/GFS PRETTY MUCH IN
AGREEMENT WITH THIS. GFS IS 3 HOURS FASTER AND HAS SNOW REACHING
HUDSON VALLEY BY 12UTC. WITH THE POWERFUL DYNAMICS ASSOC WITH THIS
SYSTEM IT WILL BE ENHANCED BY GRTLKS IN A GENERAL WAY. BUT MAIN
IMPACT IN NEAR TERM WILL BE THICKENING CLOUDS AND CHC OF SNOW TWRD
DAYBREAK. ITS MORE SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS LIE IN THE SHORT TERM
PERIOD.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AFOREMENTIONED UPPER LOW MAKES RUN AT THE CWA ON MONDAY. UPPER LOW
WILL WEAKEN AS TRAVERSES THE REGION. AT THE SURFACE...JUST A TROUGH
TO CROSS THE REGION. SURFACE LOW DOES SPIN UP...BUT NOT UNTIL UPPER
WAVE REACHES NEW ENGLAND COAST. UPPER LOW WILL BE MOISTURE
STARVED...PWATS ONLY ABOUT ONE QUARTER INCH /VS CLIMO OF 0.34 INCH/.
STILL MODELS DEPICTING AROUND ONE QUARTER TO ONE THIRD INCH OF QPF
WITH SYSTEM. BEST QPF TO BE FOUND ACROSS ADIRONDACKS AND GREENS.
PRECIP SHOULD BE ALL SNOW WITH MOST OF THE CWA PICKING UP AT LEAST
AN INCH. ALTHOUGH POTENTIAL FOR ADVISORY LEVEL SNOWFALL IS HIGHEST
ACROSS THE ADIRONDACKS AND GREENS...WILL CONTINUE WITH PREVIOUS
THINKING AND MENTION ADVISORY POTENTIAL FOR ALL ZONES.

ARCTIC FRONT CROSSES CWA MONDAY NIGHT. MAIN ISSUES WITH THE FRONT
WILL BE NOT ONLY THE FRIGID ARCTIC AIR...BUT ALSO STRONG WINDS
ACCOMPANYING FRONT AND PERSISTING INTO TUESDAY. WINDS WILL BE STRONG
ENOUGH WITH FRONT LATE MONDAY NIGHT...MORE TOWARD DAWN ON
TUESDAY...AND INTO TUESDAY FOR POTENTIAL WIND ADVISORY. ADVISORY
POTENTIAL IS GREATEST FOR HIGHER ELEVATIONS...BUT WITH BUFKIT
MOMENTUM TRANSFER YIELDING 46 KNOTS FOR ALB WITH FROPA WILL MAINTAIN
HWO MENTION FOR ENTIRE CWA. 850MB TEMPS DROP TO -20C TUESDAY AT ALB
/ABOUT 2 STANDARD DEVIATIONS BELOW NORMAL/ AND -27C IN THE
ADIRONDACKS. SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES IN ARCTIC AIR MASS TEMPS
BETWEEN MAV AND MET MOS NUMBERS. PREFERRED THE COLDER MET MOS
NUMBERS IN THIS AIR MASS. THIS YIELDS HIGHS ON TUESDAYS SINGLE
DIGITS ADIRONDACKS AND GREENS WITH TEENS ELSEWHERE. ON TUESDAY
NIGHT...LOWS PLUMMET BELOW ZERO IN ADIRONDACKS AND GREENS WITH
SINGLE NUMBERS ELSEWHERE. CONTINUING GUSTY WINDS SET THE STAGE FOR
POTENTIAL WIND CHILL PROBLEMS TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT WITH WARNING
CRITERIA A POSSIBILITY IN THE ADIRONDACKS. CURRENT FORECASTS DO NOT
GET TO ADVISORY OR WARNING CRITERIA IN VALLEY LOCATIONS...BUT WITH
ARCTIC AIR IN PLACE AND STRONG WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT HWO
THREAT FOR ALL LOCATIONS.

DESPITE LAKE DELTA TS REACHING NEARLY 30C ON TUESDAY...LAKE RESPONSE
SHOULD BE FAIRLY MUTED. TRAJECTORY WILL KEEP MOST LAKE EFFECT
ACTIVITY TO THE WEST OF CWA. FURTHERMORE...MODELS SOUNDINGS SHOW
INVERSIONS QUITE LOW IN ARCTIC AIR. SO LITTLE LAKE IMPACT EXPECTED
IN OUR CWA.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
MAIN ISSUE FOR THIS PERIOD WILL BE EVOLUTION OF POTENTIAL EAST
COAST STORM FOR NEW YEARS WEEKEND. GFS WOULD PRODUCE BLOCKBUSTER
STORM FOR CWA...WHILE CANADIAN AND ECMWF NOT NEARLY AS
IMPRESSIVE...ALTHOUGH BOTH FEATURE SOME COASTAL LOW IN THE
PICTURE. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT OPERATIONAL GFS IS ON THE WESTERN
EDGE OF THE ENVELOPE OF POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS OFFERED BY THE GFS
ENSEMBLES. AND WHILE THE GFS OPERATIONAL MODEL DUMPS OUT 2-3
INCHES OF QPF ACROSS THE CWA FOR THE 48 HOURS ENDING AT 6Z SUNDAY
JAN 03...GFS ENSEMBLES CAN NOT MUSTER ANY POPS FOR A 24 HOUR ONE
INCH QPF.

SO...ALTHOUGH MODELS ARE GRAPPLING WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR A
SIGNIFICANT WINTER STORM NEXT WEEKEND SOMEWHERE ON THE EAST
COAST...THIS FAR OUT...CAN NOT BE MORE CONFIDENT THAN JUST CHANCE
POPS FOR THE PERIOD. ALSO CONFIDENCE NOT HIGH ENOUGH FOR ANY MENTION
IN THE HWO.

OTHERWISE...FOR LONG TERM PERIOD...GMOS USED.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
CLOUDS WERE PARTIALLY BREAKING UP BEHIND THE RAIN THAT EXITED THE
HUDSON VALLEY LATE THIS MORNING.  BUT THERE WAS STILL AN ABUNDANCE
OF LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE IN THE ATMOSPHERE...AND NOT MUCH WIND IN
THE LOWER LEVELS TO HELP DRIVE IT OUT.  THE AIRPORTS WILL LIKELY
STAY BKN...BUT IT WILL BE VFR AT TIMES.  GFL IS CURRENTLY SOCKED IN
WITH LIFR FOG AND FOR THE SAME REASON...THIS COULD STAY INTACT.  NO
EVIDENCE OF IMPROVING CONDITIONS AS OF 1735Z.  HAVE LIFR FOG THRU
09Z...THEN IFR THROUGH THE END OF THE TAF PERIOD AS SNOW SHOWERS
MOVE IN WITH WEAK LOW PRESSURE AND A COLD FRONT.

SURFACE WINDS PICK UP TO AROUND 10 KTS AT ALB AND POU AFTER THE
FROPA...AND THE ACTIVITY BEGINS TO WIND DOWN IN THE LATE MORNING.

OUTLOOK...
MON PM-TUE...CHC -SHSN GFL AND ALB...THEN IMPROVING TO VFR ALL
AIRPORTS.
TUE NGT-THU...VFR...NO SIG WX.
THU NGT-FRI...VFR...CHC MVFR/IFR -SN OR -SHSN
&&

.HYDROLOGY...
RIVER RESPONSE TO PRECIPITATION YESTERDAY AND EARLY THIS MORNING
HAS BEEN GENERALLY MUTED. RISES HAVE BEEN CONTAINED WITHIN BANKS.
PRECIPITATION WILL ENDING ACROSS CWA THIS MORNING. ADDITIONAL
SNOWMELT LIKELY TODAY WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 30S TO MID 40S
WHICH WILL RESULT IN SOME SNOW MELT...BUT WITH BASIN AVERAGE QPF
AMOUNTS GENERALLY A THIRD TO NEAR AN INCH EXPECT ONLY A RISE OF
SEVERAL FEET ON THE RIVERS WHICH WILL MAINLY OCCUR ACROSS SOUTHERN
PORTIONS OF THE HSA. TEMPERATURES DROPPING BELOW FREEZING TONIGHT
WILL HALT ANY RUNOFF.

THE NEXT SYSTEM FROM LATE SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT IS
EXPECTED TO BRING SNOW WITH MOST AREAS SEEING A FEW INCHES...EXCEPT
HIGHER AMOUNTS ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE WESTERN ADIRONDACKS. DRY
WEATHER WILL RETURN FOR TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY AND WITH VERY COLD
AIR IN PLACE ACROSS THE REGION...RIVERS IN MOST PLACES WILL ADD
SEVERAL INCHES OF ICE.
