What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this tornado warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS New York, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this tornado warning went out at Jun 24, 1:36 PM EDT, 41 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 24, 1:36 PM EDT, 41 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
136 PM EDT THU JUN 24 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL PASS ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON. HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS IN BEHIND THE FRONT TONIGHT INTO THE WEEKEND. A SERIES OF
FRONTAL BOUNDARIES WILL THEN IMPACT THE AREA LATER SATURDAY INTO THE
BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
COLD FRONT AS OF 16Z WAS THROUGH CENTRAL OH...WITH A SURFACE
TROUGH EXTENDING FROM CENTRAL NY STATE INTO NJ AND SERN PA. A
SECOND COLD FRONT WAS DRAPED ACROSS SRN PORTIONS OF QUEBEC INTO
LAKE ONTARIO. TSTMS BEGINNING TO FIRE AHEAD OF THE FRONT IN
SCENTRAL PA. TSTM COMPLEX OVER NERN PA WILL LIKELY INTENSIFY AS IT
REACHES THE MORE UNSTABLE AIRMASS ACROSS ORANGE COUNTY THIS
AFTERNOON. THE COMPLEX IS MOVING EWD AT ABOUT 45KT...SO WILL REACH
WRN PORTIONS OF THE COUNTY AROUND 17Z. ISOLATED DEVELPMENT IS
POSSIBLE AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE. ELSWHERE...THE CAP IS
WEAKENING...SO ISOLATED DEVELOPMENT IS POSSIBLE EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON BEFORE THE MAIN UPPER LEVEL FORCING ARRIVES AFTER 18Z.

ONE MORE HOT DAY EXPECTED AS TEMPS ALOFT WARM SLIGHTLY FROM WHAT WAS
OBSERVED YESTERDAY. WITH EXPECTED STEEP DRY ADIABATIC LAPSE RATES
AND PLENTY OF MIXING...SURFACE TEMPS SHOULD RISE TO NEAR 90...OR
IN THE 90S MOST PLACES AS H8 TEMPS HOVER AROUND 20C. CLOUDS WILL
BE THE ONLY INHIBITING FACTOR WITH REGARD TO MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES
TODAY AS WINDS REMAIN WEST...THEN NORTHWEST. FEEL NAM BASED MOS
TEMPS A TAD TOO HIGH AND WILL FOLLOW A MAV/MET BLEND...WHICH COMES
CLOSE TO EARLIER DATABASE. DISCARDED GFS LAMP MOS AS I FEEL IT IS
TOO LOW...SURPRISINGLY LOW IN FACT AS OF 6Z.

WITH WESTERLY FLOW THROUGH A DEEP LAYER AND PLENTY OF
MIXING...EXPECT DEW POINTS TO DROP SOMEWHAT THROUGH THE DAY TODAY.
IF THIS DOES INDEED OCCUR...HEAT INDICES WILL REMAIN IN THE 90S. A
HEAT ADVISORY IS ISSUED FOR 100 DEGREE HEAT INDICES FOR 2 HOURS OR
MORE. CONFIDENCE THAT THIS WILL OCCUR AS NOT QUITE THERE FOR NYC
METRO...BUT NEVERTHELESS IT WILL BE QUITE HOT TODAY.

AS FOR CONVECTION...FORECAST AREA REMAINS IN SLIGHT RISK TODAY FOR
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. DEEPEST MOISTURE AND STRONGEST LIFT ASSOCIATED
WITH MID AND UPPER LEVEL TROUGH REMAINS TO THE NORTH OF THE CWA.
HOWEVER...SHEAR PROFILES...STRONG MID LEVEL WIND AND MODERATE
INSTABILITY WITH CAPES 1000 TO 2000 J/KG WILL SUPPORT POSSIBLE
STRONG TO SEVERE CELLS TODAY. FAVORABLE H2 JET POSITION PROGGED
LATE IN THE DAY AS WELL. AMOUNT OF DRY AIR THROUGH THE COLUMN AND
AMOUNT OF LIFT THE MAIN ISSUE TODAY...BUT ANY STORM THAT DOES MOVE
INTO THE CWA HAS THE CHANCE TO PRODUCE STRONG AND DAMAGING WINDS.
AGAIN...PROFILES DO SUPPORT SUPERCELLS TODAY...MAINLY DURING THE
MID AFTERNOON HOURS.

DUE TO STRONG SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW AND ROUGH SURF...THERE IS A
MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS FOR ATLANTIC FACING BEACHES TODAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
FRONTAL TIMING REMAINS SIMILAR...AND ANY LINGERING CONVECTION
QUICKLY GIVES WAY TO DRY WEATHER AND LOW POPS AFTER 00Z FRIDAY.
SKIES WILL CLEAR...AND HUMIDITY LEVELS WILL DROP.

DRIER WEATHER EXPECTED FRIDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS. THERMAL
TROUGH DEVELOPS FRIDAY AS SFC TEMPS WARM...BUT NO CONVECTION IS
EXPECTED WITH HIGH PRESSURE FIRMLY IN CONTROL. TEMPERATURES WILL
RETURN CLOSER TO NORMAL LEVELS. ONCE AGAIN FOLLOWED A MAV/MET BLEND
FRIDAY. THIS TIME...MAV OUTPUT APPEARS TOO HIGH.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SHORTWAVE APPROACHES LATE SAT AFTERNOON IN NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST
STEERING FLOW. MODELS DO INDICATE POTENTIAL CONVECTION LATER IN THE
DAY SATURDAY.

SFC LOW PRESSURE CROSSES THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT ALONG WARM FRONTAL
BOUNDARY...AND UNSETTLED WEATHER REMAINS INTO SUNDAY AS
THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY APPEARS TO SET UP IN THE VICINITY OF
THE TRI-STATE AREA. FLOW BRIEFLY BECOMES ZONAL AT THE MID LEVELS
WHICH ALLOWS FOR ANOTHER...STRONGER AREA OF LOW PRESSURE TO
QUICKLY APPROACH THE NORTHEAST SUNDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY MONDAY.
WHILE GLOBAL MODELS/ENSEMBLES DIFFER SLIGHTLY ON STRENGTH AND
PLACEMENT OF LOW...IT DOES APPEAR THAT AREA REMAINS UNSETTLED AS
THESE MODELS DO AGREE WITH SUB 1000 MB LOW AND FRONT REMAINING IN
OUR VICINITY. COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE OCCURS MONDAY AFTERNOON INTO
MONDAY EVENING. UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL CONTINUE INTO TUESDAY AS
MID-LEVEL FLOW SHARPENS TO YIELD A RATHER DEEP 500 MB TROUGH/LOW.
SOME PVA AND POSSIBLE WEAK SURFACE LOW PRESSURE REFLECTION OVER
THE REGION WILL KEEP CHANCE SHOWER ACTIVITY IN THE FORECAST. WITH
THE MID- LEVEL TROUGH REMAINING OVER THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY...WE
WILL LIKELY SEE COOLER CONDITIONS THAN WE HAVE SEEN RECENTLY.

TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH MONDAY PRIOR TO
FRONTAL PASSAGE...AS 500 MB HEIGHTS AND 850 MB TEMPERATURES STAY
ELEVATED. WITH CLOUDS...POTENTIAL PRECIPITATION...AND ENTRANCE OF
MID-LEVEL TROUGH ON TUESDAY...TEMPERATURES WILL RETURN TO NORMAL
LEVELS. ON WEDNESDAY...PRESENCE OF MID-LEVEL TROUGH AND FALLING 500
MB HEIGHTS WILL RESULT IN BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES FOR THE AREA.

&&

.AVIATION /17Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
VFR THROUGH MUCH OF THE PERIOD.

A COLD FRONT MOVING ACROSS PA WILL PUSH ACROSS THE NYC TERMINALS
THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING BRINGING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. THE
BEST CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE THROUGH 23Z...AND AROUND 00Z
FURTHER EAST. ANY THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING SUB
VFR CONDITIONS AND WINDS GUSTS UP TO 45 KT.

WINDS WILL BE FROM THE WEST AND GUST INTO THE LOWER AND MIDDLE
20S. ONCE THE FRONT CLEARS THE AREA...WINDS WILL SHIFT TOWARDS THE
NORTHWEST. BY MIDNIGHT THE GUSTS WILL COME TO AN END AND THE WIND
SPEEDS WILL DIMINISH. SKIES WILL ALSO BECOME CLEAR.

.MARINE...
WINDS WILL INCREASE AHEAD OF THE NEXT COLD FRONT APPROACHING THE
COASTAL WATERS. WIND GUSTS PROBABLY HIGHER CLOSER TO SEA LAND
INTERFACE WHERE BETTER MIXING WILL BE OCCURRING. SCA WILL REMAIN IN
EFFECT FOR THE WATERS FOR THE AFTERNOON INTO EARLY EVENING BEFORE
WINDS TURN MORE NORTHWESTERLY AND DIMINISH BY LATER TONIGHT. LOCALLY
LOWER VSBYS AND HIGHER WINDS AND SEAS POSSIBLE WITH SHOWER AND
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY BEFORE AND DURING COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE.

WAVEWATCH GUIDANCE WITHIN 1 FT OF BUOYS IN OUR COASTAL ZONES AS OF
00Z. THIS WAS FOLLOWED THROUGH FRIDAY. EXPECT SEAS AND WINDS TO
REMAIN BELOW SCA LATER THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY. NEXT LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM APPROACHES LATE SATURDAY NIGHT AND MOVES NORTHEAST
OF THE WATERS ON SUNDAY WITH A STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY LINGERING
NEARBY. MODEL UNCERTAINTY EXISTS HERE WITH POSITION AND STRENGTH OF
THIS LOW. LOWERED WINDS TO ACCOUNT FOR A TRACK CLOSER TO THE COASTAL
WATERS AND LESS OF A PRESSURE GRADIENT. LIKEWISE...WAVEWATCH
GUIDANCE LOWERED SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY FOR OUTER OCEAN
AREAS WHERE IT SEEMED TO INCREASE TOO MUCH. SCA POSSIBLE FOR
HIGHER SEAS ON OUTER EASTERN OCEAN ZONES FOR EARLY SUNDAY AND
MONDAY BEFORE ANOTHER COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH.

.HYDROLOGY...
SCATTERED TSTMS EXPECTED TODAY. WIDESPREAD BASIN AVERAGES REMAIN
UNDER A QUARTER TO HALF AN INCH DUE TO THE SCATTERED NATURE OF THE
