AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BURLINGTON VT
1032 AM EDT THU MAY 26 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
ACTIVE WEATHER IS EXPECTED ACROSS MUCH OF THE NORTH COUNTRY THROUGH
SATURDAY...WITH STRONG TO POSSIBLY SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...AND LOCALLY
HEAVY RAINFALL. THE THREAT FOR SHOWERS CONTINUES SATURDAY NIGHT
INTO SUNDAY...BEFORE HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS TO THE REGION FOR THE
START OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
AS OF 1032 AM EDT THURSDAY...COMPOSITE ANALYSIS SHOWS THREAT FOR
STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING ACROSS
NORTHERN NEW YORK AND THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL SECTIONS OF
VERMONT. AXIS OF INSTABILITY WILL DEVELOP NORTHWARD INTO THE
NORTHERN ADIRONDACKS AND NORTHWEST VERMONT THIS AFTERNOON EAST OF
PRONOUNCED CLOUD SHIELD. AT THE SAME TIME...DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL
DEVELOP OVER NORTHERN NEW YORK AND SUPPORT FAVORABLE CONDITIONS
FOR STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NORTHERN NEW YORK THIS
AFTERNOON AND LATE DAY/EVENING FOR NORTHERN AND CENTRAL VERMONT.
EXPECT DAMAGING WINDS...LARGE HAIL...AND VERY HEAVY DOWNPOURS.
HAVE ALSO ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD WARNING FOR THE SAME AREA AS STORMS
WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE 1 TO 2 INCHES OF RAIN IN A VERY
SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. SECOND ROUND OF STORMS LATER TONIGHT COULD
ALSO ENHANCE THE FLOOD POTENTIAL.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
AS OF 451 AM EDT THURSDAY...AFOREMENTIONED COLD FRONT CONTINUES TO
SLOWLY SAG SOUTH ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY TONIGHT...WITH THE
THREAT FOR STRONG STORMS CONTINUING AT LEAST THROUGH MIDNIGHT...THEN
WEAKENING THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE NIGHT WITH THE LOSS OF
SURFACE HEATING. THE POTENTIAL EXISTS AGAIN ON FRIDAY FOR
CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT AS THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS SLOW TO MOVE
THROUGH THE REGION. STILL A LOT OF QUESTIONS AS TO THE LOCATION OF
THE BOUNDARY...WITH MID-RANGE MODELS DIFFERING A BIT FROM NORTH TO
SOUTH. A LARGE FACTOR IN THE LOCATION OF THE BOUNDARY WILL LIKELY
BE WHATEVER STORMS DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON...WHICH MAY COOL THE
BOUNDARY LAYER OVER THE REGION ENOUGH TO KEEP THE BEST INSTABILITY
SOUTH OF THE REGION. AT THIS TIME...HAVE GONE WITH A BLEND OF
SOLUTIONS KEEPING THE MAIN THREAT FOR STORMS ACROSS CENTRAL AND
SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE REGION...WITH LESSER CHANCES AND COOLER
AIR NORTH.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 339 AM EDT THURSDAY...UPR TROUGH EXPECTED TO SHEAR NEWD
ACROSS OUR REGION FRIDAY NIGHT OVER REMNANT FRONTAL ZONE AND NARROW
DEEP-LAYER MOISTURE AXIS WILL MAINTAIN LIKELY POPS FOR SHOWERS AND
PERHAPS A FEW THUNDERSTORMS...ESPECIALLY BEFORE MIDNIGHT. PW
VALUES REMAIN NEAR 1.5 INCHES...SO A FEW HEAVY DOWNPOURS WILL
REMAIN POSSIBLE FRIDAY NIGHT WITH ANY CONVECTIVE STORMS. WITH
GENERALLY OVERCAST CONDITIONS...SOUTH WINDS...AND MOIST
CONDITIONS...LOW TEMPS SHOULD BE FAIRLY UNIFORM ACROSS THE NORTH
COUNTRY AND MAINLY IN THE UPR 50S TO LWR 60S. BNDRY RETREATS NWD
AS A WARM FRONT SATURDAY WITH NORTH COUNTRY GENERALLY IN THE WARM
SECTOR AND SW FLOW IN THE 700-500MB LAYER. SHOULD BE THE START OF
A WARMING TREND WITH HIGHS IN THE UPR 70S TO LOWER 80S. THAT
SAID...WILL CONTINUE WITH A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORM
ACTIVITY WITH DAYTIME HEATING. THIS IS SUPPORTED BY 21Z SREF/SPC
CALIBRATED TSTM PROBS OF AROUND 40 PERCENT BETWEEN 18-21Z
SATURDAY. DAYTIME WINDS SATURDAY WILL GENERALLY BE FROM THE S-SW
AT 10-15 MPH AND DEWPOINTS WILL BE RELATIVELY HIGH IN THE LOW TO
PERHAPS MID 60S.

A MAJOR PATTERN CHANGE IS EXPECTED TO TAKE PLACE SUNDAY THROUGH
TUESDAY NEXT WEEK AS A DEEP-LAYER RIDGE BUILDS NEWD FROM THE GULF
COAST ALL THE WAY INTO NEW ENGLAND. THIS WILL REPRESENT A
TRANSITION TOWARD HOT AND HUMID WEATHER CONDITIONS. AIR MASS
SUPPORTS TEMPERATURES WELL INTO THE 80S. LOW 90S CAN/T BE RULED OUT
FOR THE WARMER VALLEY LOCATIONS ESPECIALLY FOR TUESDAY WITH 00Z GFS
INDICATING 850MB TEMPS +18 TO +20C...AND ECMWF +20C TO +22C. HAVE
NOTED IN THE PAST A SLIGHT WARM BIAS IN ECMWF TEMPS IN SIMILAR
SITUATIONS...SO WOULD TEND TO LEAN TOWARD GFS 850MB TEMPERATURES.
COULD BE A FEW SHOWERS SUNDAY...BUT THEREAFTER STRONG MID-LEVEL
SUBSIDENCE SHOULD KEEP SUN NIGHT THRU TUESDAY DRY.

RIDGE FLATTENS TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY IN RESPONSE TO
A PROGRESSIVE SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND PASSAGE OF ATTENDANT SFC COLD
FRONT. THIS WILL BRING PERIOD OF POSSIBLE SHOWER/ISOLD TSTM ACTIVITY
TUESDAY NIGHT/EARLY WEDNESDAY. MAY ALSO SEE SOME GUSTY WEST WINDS TO
35 MPH AFTER FROPA BASED ON CURRENT INDICATIONS. SEEING SOME
DIFFERENCE IN THE STRENGTH AND TIMING OF THE FRONT...WHICH WOULD
AFFECT TEMPS WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY. THE 00Z GFS INDICATES A RATHER
STRONG COLD FRONT WITH 850MB TEMPS DROPPING TO +3 TO +4C LATE
WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. 00Z ECMWF IS SLOWER WITH FRONTAL PASSAGE
WEDNESDAY...BUT DOES ALSO INDICATE A SIGNIFICANT COOL DOWN BY
THURSDAY WITH SIMILAR 850MB TEMPERATURES. WILL INDICATE HIGHS BACK
INTO THE 70S FOR WEDNESDAY AND MAY ONLY SEE 60S FOR THURSDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /15Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
THROUGH 12Z FRIDAY...MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT
6 HOURS AS WARM FRONTAL PRECIP OVERNIGHT HAS EXITED THE REGION AND
WE'LL BE IN THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM. MAIN AVIATION ISSUE
THEREAFTER WILL BE THE DEVELOPMENT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
AROUND AND AFTER 18Z. HARD TO NAIL DOWN EXACT TIMING AND IMPACTS AT
THIS JUNCTURE SO HAVE JUST MENTIONED VCTS AND CB'S FOR NOW. SHOULD
BE ABLE TO BETTER DEFINE TERMINAL IMPACTS CLOSER TO THE 18Z TAFS
AS THE DAY UNFOLDS. DO EXPECT TO EVENTUALLY SEE SOME SHRA AND TSRA
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...LOCALLY LOWER CIGS/VSBY TO MVFR/IFR
AT TIMES. PRECIPITATION DIMINISHES OVERNIGHT...AND SO DO THE WINDS.
LIGHT WINDS COMBINED WITH A VERY MOIST AIRMASS WILL SET THE STAGE
FOR LOW CIGS AND FOG DEVELOPMENT OVERNIGHT. LIKELY TO SEE IFR TO
MVFR CONDITIONS AFTER MIDNIGHT...LOCALLY DOWN TO VLIFR AT KMPV/KSLK.

OUTLOOK 12Z FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY...
12Z FRIDAY THROUGH 15Z FRIDAY...LOW CIGS/VSBY BURNING OFF AFTER
SUNRISE...OTHERWISE VFR.
15Z FRIDAY THROUGH 06Z SATURDAY...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORM
REDEVELOPING...LIKELY REDUCING CIGS/VSBY TO MVFR/IFR AT TIMES.
06Z SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY...MAINLY VFR WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS
POSSIBLE.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
AS OF 450 AM EDT THURSDAY...THE THREAT FOR LOCALIZED HEAVY
RAINFALL FROM STRONG THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE INCREASING THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING...AND AGAIN ON FRIDAY. STRONGER STORMS WILL
BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING 1 TO 2 INCHES OF RAINFALL IN A SHORT
PERIOD OF TIME...WHICH COMBINED WITH ALREADY SATURATED GROUND
CONDITIONS WILL POSE A THREAT FOR FLASH FLOODING AND RAPID RISES
ON SMALLER STREAMS AND RIVERS. THE FOCUS TODAY WILL BE ACROSS THE
NORTHERN ADIRONDACKS...SHIFTING EASTWARD TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY.
GIVEN THE CONVECTIVE NATURE OF THE PRECIP...THE EXACT TIMING AND
LOCATION OF THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL AMOUNTS IS DIFFICULT TO
FORECAST AT THIS TIME. PLEASE STAY TUNED FOR ADDITIONAL
DISCUSSIONS AND STATEMENTS ON THIS UPCOMING WEATHER EVENT.

&&

.MARINE...
AS OF 345 AM EDT THURSDAY...WINDS WILL BECOME A MAJOR FACTOR ON LAKE
CHAMPLAIN TODAY AND A LAKE WIND ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT. SOUTH WINDS
WILL INCREASE INTO THE 20 TO 30 KNOT RANGE THIS MORNING WITH WAVES
BUILDING INTO THE 3 TO 5 FOOT RANGE. SEICHE EFFECTS FROM THE WIND
WILL CAUSE THE LAKE LEVEL TO RISE TO NEAR 102.7 FEET ACROSS THE
NORTHERN HALF OF THE LAKE THURSDAY...WITH SOME EROSION TO SOUTH
FACING SHORELINES. WINDS WILL SUBSIDE SOME BY LATE AFTN /15-25
KNOTS/...THEN BECOME NORTH THIS EVENING INTO THURSDAY NIGHT WITH
PASSAGE OF A COLD FRONT FROM NORTH TO SOUTH ACROSS LAKE CHAMPLAIN.
NORTH WINDS AROUND 10 KNOTS ARE EXPECTED FOR FRIDAY.

FOR BOATERS MANY HAZARDS STILL EXIST. BREAKWATER AND OTHER ROCKS
OR OBSTRUCTIONS TO NAVIGATION MAY BE OBSCURED BY THE HIGH WATER
LEVELS ON THE LAKE. IN ADDITION...PLENTY OF DEBRIS REMAIN IN THE
LAKE...ESPECIALLY NEAR RIVER MOUTHS. LASTLY...THE NEAR-SHORE LAKE
TEMPERATURES HAVE ONLY WARMED TO AROUND 50 DEGREES...WHICH COULD
LEAD TO POTENTIAL HYPOTHERMIC CONDITIONS IF ONE WERE TO FALL INTO
THE WATER. DUE TO THE ABOVE FACTORS...RECREATIONAL BOATING IS
DISCOURAGED AT THIS TIME.
