...A FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 800 PM EDT FOR
WESTCHESTER...SOUTHERN FAIRFIELD AND ROCKLAND COUNTIES...

AT 720 PM EDT...NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR INDICATED 
THAT AS MUCH AS 2 INCHES OF RAIN HAS FALLEN OVER THE WARNED AREA.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

DO NOT DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE 
ROADWAY. THE WATER DEPTH MAY BE TOO GREAT TO ALLOW YOUR CAR TO CROSS 
SAFELY. MOVE TO HIGHER GROUND.

MOST FLOOD DEATHS OCCUR IN AUTOMOBILES. NEVER DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO
AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE ROADWAY. FLOOD WATERS ARE USUALLY
DEEPER THAN THEY APPEAR. JUST ONE FOOT OF FLOWING WATER IS POWERFUL
ENOUGH TO SWEEP VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD. WHEN ENCOUNTERING FLOODED 
ROADS MAKE THE SMART CHOICE...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
322 PM EDT FRI JUN 26 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY CROSS THE REGION TONIGHT. A BROAD AREA
OF LOW PRESSURE THEN BUILDS INTO THE NORTHEASTERN UNITED STATES
FOR THE WEEKEND...THEN SLIDES OFFSHORE BY MONDAY. ANOTHER SLOW
MOVING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER THE GREAT LAKES WILL IMPACT THE
AREA THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK...ENSURING UNSETTLED
WEATHER.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
WITH PLENTY OF INSTABILITY IN PLACE...SCATTERED STRONG TO SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED THIS EVENING. A COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY PASS
ACROSS THE AREA FROM WEST TO EAST OVERNIGHT. PLENTY OF LEFTOVER
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND LIGHT WINDS WILL RESULT IN THE FORMATION OF
PATCHY FOG. CONVECTION WILL DIMINISH IN INTENSITY AND COVERAGE.

REGARDING TEMPERATURES...FOLLOWED MOS BLEND.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY/...
CLOSED UPPER LOW AND ASSOCIATED COLD POOL OVER THE AREA SATURDAY
WILL SLOWLY PASS TO THE EAST AS NEXT CLOSED LOW DIGS ACROSS THE
GREAT LAKES REGION. WOULD EXPECT SCATTERED CONVECTION TO
DEVELOP SATURDAY...BUT DRIER BOUNDARY LAYER WILL KEEP CAPES DOWN
SOMEWHAT IN SPITE OF COLD AIR ALOFT.

DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION WANES SATURDAY EVENING...AND EXPECT
SLIGHTLY LESS COVERAGE ON SUNDAY AS CWA REMAINS BETWEEN WEAKENING
LOW...AND UPSTREAM LOW. WEAK RIDGING BETWEEN.

MINIMAL POPS STILL WARRANTED THROUGH MONDAY AS MODELS DO OUTPUT
SCT CONVECTION IN PERSISTENT UNSTABLE AIRMASS. AGAIN...COVERAGE
QUITE LOW...SO MANY LOCATIONS SHOULD REMAIN DRY.

AS FOR TEMPS...UNDERCUT MAVS AND LEANED TOWARD COOLER MET NUMBERS
DUE TO CONVECTION AND CLOSED UPPER LOW PARKED OVER THE NORTHEAST.
FEEL TEMPS REMAIN BELOW NORMAL.

A SLIGHT WARMUP POSSIBLE SUNDAY AND MONDAY...NEAR NORMAL.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
UNSETTLED WEATHER CONTINUES THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD WITH AT
LEAST CHANCE POPS EACH DAY FOR RAIN SHOWERS. A LARGE CUTOFF LOW OVER
THE GREAT LAKES WILL SLOWLY SHIFT TOWARD THE NORTHEAST THROUGH THE
WEEK. SHORTWAVES ROTATING AROUND THIS LOW PROVIDE CONSIDERABLE
CLOUDINESS AND PERIODS OF SHOWER ACTIVITY. CLOUD COVER SHOULD KEEP
HIGH TEMPS AT OR NEAR CLIMATOLOGY...MAINLY IN THE 70S AND LOWER 80S.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
HIGH CONFIDENCE ON CONVECTION ACROSS THE TERMINALS LATER THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS SHORT WAVE NOTED IN WATER VAPOR IMAGERY
MOVES ACROSS THE AREA. CLUSTERS OF THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NRN PA AND
SRN TIER OF NY WILL DROP SE AND CROSS NYC AREA TERMINALS 21-01Z.
SUB-VFR EXPECTED WITH LOCALIZED GUSTY WINDS AND HEAVY RAIN ACROSS ALL
TERMINALS. STRONG TO LOCALIZED SEVERE CONVECTION WITH FREQUENT
LIGHTNING EXPECTED.

IFR CEILINGS ACROSS COASTAL CT AND LI WILL MIX OUT TEMPORARILY AS
CONVECTION MOVES APPROACHES. WESTERLY WINDS OF 10-15 KT IN THE
MIXED LAYER. FOG/HAZE WILL REDEVELOP QUICKLY OVERNIGHT. PLENTY OF
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND LIGHT WINDS WILL LIKELY BRING VLIFR CONDS
ACROSS COASTAL TERMINALS EARLY MORNING HOURS AND MAY LINGER
THROUGH MID MORNING SAT...ESPECIALLY AT KGON.

OUTLOOK /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
SAT-TUE:...VFR...WITH SUB VFR POSSIBLE IN SCT TSRA/SHRA.

&&

.MARINE...
WINDS REMAIN LIGHT THROUGH THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. LATEST
OBSERVATIONS INDICATE NEAR 5 FOOT SEAS IN A SE SWELL. WAVE WATCH
SEEMS TOO HIGH INITIALLY...SO UNDERCUT OUTPUT BY A FOOT. FEEL SEAS
REMAIN BELOW 5 FT...AS WIND DRIVEN WAVES NEGLIGIBLE.

COLD FRONT SLOWLY PASSES ACROSS THE WATERS TONIGHT. AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE REMAINS IN THE WATERS VICINITY FOR QUITE SOME TIME.

UNSETTLED WEATHER THE MAIN THREAT FOR MARINE INTERESTS OVER THE
NEXT SEVERAL DAYS.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
WITH PWATS AROUND 1.5 INCHES THIS EVENING...ANY THUNDERSTORM COULD
PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL CAUSING MINOR FLOODING...ESPECIALLY
OF POOR DRAINAGE AREAS AND SMALLER CREEKS AND STREAMS GIVEN RECENT
RAINFALL ACROSS THE REGION). AREA WIDE EXPECT BASIN AVERAGE
AMOUNTS OF 0.25 TO 0.75 INCHES FROM CONVECTION AHEAD OF THE COLD
FRONT EXPECTED THROUGH TONIGHT. RELATIVELY WET PERIOD SATURDAY
THROUGH NEXT WEEK...WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS DAILY...MOST AREAS WILL
NOT RECEIVE RAIN EVERY DAY...BUT THOSE THAT DO COULD RECEIVE
0.25-0.5 INCHES. MAIN IMPACT WILL BE TO KEEP AREA WATER TABLES
FROM RECEDING FROM RELATIVELY HIGH CURRENT LEVELS.

&&
