AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
322 AM EST SUN FEB 22 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE OVER MICHIGAN WILL TRACK NORTHEAST ACROSS ONTARIO
PROVINCE TODAY...BEFORE MERGING WITH A SECONDARY LOW ALONG THE NEW
ENGLAND COAST AND LIFTING OUT ACROSS THE CANADIAN MARITIMES TONIGHT
AND MONDAY. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING ANOTHER GENERAL LIGHT SNOWFALL TO
THE AREA TODAY AND TONIGHT...FOLLOWED BY A FRESH SHOT OF ARCTIC AIR
AND MORE LAKE SNOWS FOR THE BEGINNING OF THE NEW WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
SYNOPTICALLY EVERYTHING IS GOING PRETTY MUCH ACCORDING TO PLAN AS OF
THIS WRITING WITH LOW PRESSURE CENTERED NEAR LAKE HURON AND AN
ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT ALREADY PUSHING ACROSS THE EIGHT WESTERN
COUNTIES. THERE WERE TWO DISTINCT AREAS OF SNOW GOING ON AS OF 07Z.
ONE WAS OVER NORTHEASTERN PORTION OF OUR CWA AT THE NOSE OF THE 850
JET AND THE OTHER WAS ACROSS THE WESTERN COUNTIES ASSOCIATED WITH
COLD FRONTAL ZONE CONVERGENCE. IT APPEARS THAT THE FRONTAL
CONVERGENCE ZONE WILL MOVE QUICKLY ACROSS THE AREA
OVERNIGHT...CATCHING UP WITH THE EASTERN AREA OF SNOW BY MORNING.
MOST OF THE REGION WILL BE DRY SLOTTED BY MORNING EXCEPT FOR THE
NORTHEASTERN AREAS.

THE NAM AND GFS ARE VERY CONSISTENT FILLING THE ORIGINAL LOW AS IT
MOVES NORTHEASTWARD WHILE RAPIDLY DEEPENING A SECONDARY LOW OFF THE
JERSEY COAST. THIS SECONDARY LOW WILL TAKE OVER AND WE WILL BEGIN TO
SEE SOME WRAP AROUND MOISTURE PRODUCING MORE LIGHT SNOW OVER THE
WESTERN HALF OF THE CWA THIS AFTERNOON.

COLD AIR DEEPENS LATE TODAY AND TONIGHT AS THE COASTAL LOW CONTINUES
TO DEEPEN. IT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE TO THE MAINE COAST BY MONDAY
MORNING. A DEEP NORTHWESTERLY FLOW ON THE WEST SIDE OF THIS SYSTEM
WILL SET UP AREAS OF LAKE EFFECT AND UPSLOPE SNOW ONCE AGAIN. NOT
QUITE AS UNSTABLE AS THE EVENT WE JUST HAD AND THE FLOW IS A LITTLE
MORE NORTHWESTERLY. UNSTABLE AND STEADY STATE ENOUGH THOUGH TO
UPGRADE THE LAKE EFFECT SNOW WATCH TO A WARNING FOR WAYNE...NORTHERN
CAYUGA AND OSWEGO COUNTIES. THE COLD BOUNDARY LAYER IS ALSO COLD AND
MOIST ENOUGH SOUTHEAST OF LAKE ERIE TO POST LAKE EFFECT SNOW
ADVISORIES FOR SOUTHERN ERIE...CHAUTAUQUA AND CATTARAUGUS COUNTIES
FROM LATE TODAY THROUGH MONDAY. CERTAINLY THE ICE WILL CUT DOWN ON
AMOUNTS BUT ENOUGH UPSLOPE LIFT TO GET AT LEAST ADVISORY CRITERIA.
925 MB OMEGA FIELDS SUGGEST A CONNECTION WITH LAKE HURON AS WELL.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
ALL OF THE LAKE AND SYNOPTICALLY-DRIVEN SNOWS WILL HAVE A TENDENCY
TO GRADUALLY WIND DOWN LATER MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING...DUE
TO THE EFFECTS OF INCREASING RIDGING AND DRYING/SUBSIDENCE ALOFT  AS
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS EASTWARD FROM THE CENTRAL GREAT LAKES. AS
SUCH...HAVE LOWERED POPS FROM LIKELY/CATEGORICAL TO SLIGHT
CHANCE/CHANCE BY TUESDAY MORNING...WITH THE EXPECTATION THAT THE
ACTIVITY WILL BE PRETTY MUCH GONE BY MIDDAY TUESDAY AS THE
AFOREMENTIONED RIDGE CRESTS OVERHEAD.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
GFS/ECMWF REMAIN IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON A STRONG SURFACE RIDGE
CENTERED OVER NEW YORK STATE TUESDAY EVENING...THEN SLOWLY DRIFTING
TO A POSITION JUST OFF THE ATLANTIC COASTLINE TUESDAY NIGHT AND
WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO FINALLY CLIMB TO ABOVE
SEASONAL LEVELS ON WEDNESDAY AS A SOUTHERLY FLOW OF MILDER AIR
ENVELOPS THE AREA IN THE WAKE OF THE DEPARTING RIDGE. DESPITE THE
GENERAL WARM AIR ADVECTION PATTERN...ANY PRECIP SHOULD REMAIN TO OUR
NORTH AND WEST UNTIL AT LEAST WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. AFTER THAT
TIME...A WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY SHOULD APPROACH AND CROSS THE REGION
LATER WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT IN ASSOCIATION WITH A
WEAK WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE LIFTING NORTHEAST ACROSS THE CENTRAL GREAT
LAKES. GIVEN THE MARGINAL BOUNDARY LAYER TEMPERATURES EXPECTED
DURING THIS PERIOD...WILL CONTINUE TO COVER THIS FROPA WITH A CHANCE
OF RAIN/SNOW FOR NOW.

IN THE LATTER PORTIONS OF THE PERIOD...THE MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE
INDICATES THE GENERAL IDEA OF THE COLD FRONTAL BOUNDARY ASSOCIATED
WITH WEDNESDAY NIGHTS LOW STALLING OUT TO OUR WEST ON
THURSDAY...THEN A MUCH MORE SIGNIFICANT WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE LIFTING
NORTHEAST ALONG IT THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY...FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER
SHOT OF MUCH COLDER AIR FOR FRIDAY NIGHT/SATURDAY. GIVEN THE
CONTINUED MODEL INCONSISTENCIES WITH THE TRACK OF THIS SYSTEM AND
THE RESULTING FORECAST UNCERTAINTY...WILL JUST CONTINUE TO INDICATE
A GENERAL CHANCE OF RAIN/SNOW THROUGH FRIDAY FOR NOW...FOLLOWED BY A
RENEWED SNOW SHOWER THREAT FOR THE END OF THE PERIOD AS MUCH COLDER
AIR RETURNS.

&&

.AVIATION /09Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
A COLD FRONT...PUSHING THROUGH EASTERN LAKE ONTARIO EARLY THIS
MORNING...WILL CROSS WESTERN AND CENTRAL NEW YORK BETWEEN 06Z AND
12Z...THEN CLEAR THE EASTERN END OF LAKE ONTARIO BY 15Z SUNDAY.
A BURST OF SNOW WILL ACCOMPANY THE FRONT AND LOWER CIGS/VSBYS TO IFR
LEVELS. THE LONGEST DURATION OF IFR VISIBILITIES WITH THIS FRONT ARE
EXPECTED ACROSS EASTERN ENDS OF LAKE ONTARIO WHERE ADDITIONAL
MOISTURE WILL SURGE AHEAD OF THE FRONT ON THE NOSE OF THE LOW LEVEL
JET. EXPECT MAINLY MVFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL BEHIND THE FRONT WITH
SOUTHWEST WINDS AVERAGING 15 TO 25 KNOTS.

OUTLOOK...

SUNDAY NIGHT...MVFR/IFR IN SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SNOW SHOWERS AND
AREAS OF LAKE ENHANCED/LAKE EFFECT SNOW.
MONDAY...MVFR/IFR IN SNOW
SHOWERS AND AREAS OF LAKE EFFECT/LAKE ENHANCED SNOW.
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...VFR.
THURSDAY...MVFR IN CHANCE OF RAIN AND SNOW.

&&

.MARINE...
LOW PRESSURE OVER MICHIGAN WILL TRACK NORTHEAST ACROSS ONTARIO
PROVINCE TODAY...BEFORE MERGING WITH A SECONDARY LOW ALONG THE NEW
ENGLAND COAST AND LIFTING OUT ACROSS THE CANADIAN MARITIMES TONIGHT
AND MONDAY. BEHIND THIS LOW...A STRONGER WESTERLY TO NORTHWESTERLY
FLOW OF COLDER AIR WILL OVERSPREAD THE LOWER LAKES REGION TODAY AND
TONIGHT. IT APPEARS THAT SUSTAINED WINDS WILL HOLD AT OR BELOW 30
KNOTS ALTHOUGH WIND GUSTS WILL RANGE NEAR 35 KNOTS. WILL CANCEL THE
GALE WATCH AT THIS TIME.

&&
