AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
355 AM EST THU DEC 8 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE TRACKS FROM CAPE COD INTO THE CANADIAN MARITIMES THIS
MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE WEST THURSDAY AND
THURSDAY NIGHT...THEN SLIDES OFFSHORE FRIDAY. A COLD FRONT PASSES
THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT...WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN THROUGH THE
WEEKEND AND LASTING INTO THE EARLY PORTION OF NEXT WEEK. ANOTHER
COLD FRONT PASSES THROUGH DURING THE MIDWEEK PERIOD.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
987 HPA SURFACE LOW NEAR CAPE COD AT 8Z...QUICKLY LIFTING NE AS IT
CONTINUES TO STRENGTHEN IN RESPONSE TO 500 HPA TROUGH...WITH
VIGOROUS EMBEDDED SHORTWAVE...LIFTING NE BEHIND IT.

PRECIPITATION SHOULD COME TO AN END RAPIDLY BEFORE SUNRISE.
ALREADY SEEN RAIN MIX WITH SOME SNOW AT THE OFFICE...SO HAVE
INCLUDED A RAIN SNOW MIX EVERYWHERE BEFORE THE PRECIPITATION COMES
TO AN END...AS TEMPERATURES ARE FALLING/HAVE FALLEN RAPIDLY INTO
THE 30S BEHIND THE LOW. STILL EXPECT ANY ACCUMULATIONS EARLY THIS
MORNING TO BE LIMITED TO NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE LOWER HUDSON
VALLEY AND FAR NORTHERN PARTS OF SW CT...MAINLY UNDER AN
INCH...THOUGH A FEW REPORTS TO AROUND 2 INCHES IN HIGHER
ELEVATIONS WOULD NOT BE SURPRISING.

STRONG GUSTY WINDS MAIN STORY AS LOW DEPARTS...HAD GUST TO 69 MPH
AT FOK SHORTLY BEFORE 8Z. BELIEVE GUSTS AT OR ABOVE 50 KT WILL BE
ISOLATED IN NATURE...SO WILL CONTINUE WITH WIND ADVISORY. WHILE
WINDS WILL DIMINISH AS LOW PULLS AWAY...THEY WILL NOT FALL OFF TOO
RAPIDLY...SO HAVE ADDED AN EXTRA HOUR TO THE WIND ADVISORY (MORE
SO FOR EASTERN PORTIONS THAN WESTERN AREAS).

500 HPA HEIGHTS FORECAST TO RISE ABOUT 150 M AS TROUGH LIFTS OUT
AND WEAK RIDGING BUILDS IN. HOWEVER STRONG LOW LEVEL SUBSIDENCE
WILL LIMIT MIXING TO AROUND 950 HPA...COUPLED WITH STRONG LOW
LEVEL COLD ADVECTION...WILL LIMIT TEMPERATURE RISE TODAY...WITH
TEMPERATURES STRUGGLING TO RECOVER TO THE LOW TO MID 40S. THIS IS
CONSISTENT WITH A BLEND OF MAV/MET GUIDANCE WITH NAM 2-METER
TEMPERATURES.

FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN CANCELED. SEE HYDRO SECTION OF AFD FOR
DETAILS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
SW FLOW SETS UP ALOFT...WITH RIDGE E OF THE BAHAMAS RE-
ESTABLISHING ITSELF TONIGHT AND FRIDAY.

SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT SUBSIDENCE FROM THE
WEAK RIDGING OVER THE AREA...COUPLED WITH THE TRANSIT OF THE
SURFACE HIGH TO KEEP CLOUD COVER AT A MINIMUM TONIGHT...ALONG WITH
ALLOWING WINDS TO FALL TO LIGHT AND VARIABLE AT MOST LOCATIONS. AS
A RESULT EXPECT DECENT RADIATIONAL COOLING. SO WENT WITH COOLER
MAV GUIDANCE FOR LOWS TONIGHT...UNDER CUTTING IT A FEW DEGREES IN
NORMALLY COLDER LOCATIONS. EXPECT LOWS TO BE NEAR TO SLIGHTLY
BELOW NORMAL AS A RESULT.

EXPECT TO SEE INCREASE IN MAINLY HIGH TO POSSIBLY MID CLOUDS
FRIDAY AS WEAK WARM FRONT LIFTS THROUGH IN LOW LEVELS...TO LITTLE
MOISTURE FOR ANY PRECIPITATION. TOOK A BLEND OF MAV/MET GUIDANCE
WITH A MIX DOWN FROM 925 HPA PER BUFKIT SOUNDINGS...WITH HIGHS
AROUND 5 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
A LONG STRETCH OF DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME WITH NO
CHANCES OF PRECIP IN THE FORECAST THROUGH THE LONG TERM PERIOD.

THE 500MB PATTERN AMPLIFIES FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY...WITH A
TROUGH AXIS PASSING THROUGH ON SATURDAY. THIS WILL SEND A COLD FRONT
THROUGH THE AREA DURING FRIDAY NIGHT...BUT MOISTURE DOES NOT APPEAR
TO BE SUFFICIENT FOR A CHANCE OF PRECIP. COLD AIR ADVECTION
CONTINUES THROUGH THE DAY ON SATURDAY WITH A GUSTY NW FLOW AS
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE REGION. BASED ON FORECAST
850MB TEMPERATURES...PREFERRED STARTING WITH THE COLDER NAM MOS
GUIDANCE AND ADJUSTED DOWNWARD A COUPLE OF DEGREES. HIGH PRESSURE
CONTINUES TO BUILD IN ON SUNDAY WITH A SUNNY SKY...BUT ALSO WITH
TEMPERATURES STILL AVERAGING BELOW NORMAL.

THE CENTER OF THIS HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BE JUST ABOUT OVER US
ON SUNDAY NIGHT...THEN TEMPERATURES MODERATE BACK TO NORMAL LEVELS
ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE DRIFTING OUT TO SEA.

A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST...AND PASSES THROUGH SOMETIME
DURING THE TUESDAY NIGHT/WEDNESDAY TIME FRAME. KEPT THE FORECAST DRY
FOR NOW AS MOISTURE IS SOMEWHAT LACKING...BUT A CHANCE OF RAIN/SNOW
SHOWERS MIGHT NEED TO BE ADDED INTO THE FORECAST AT SOME POINT.

&&

.AVIATION /09Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
DEEPENING LOW PRESSURE QUICKLY DEPARTING TO THE NORTHEAST THIS
MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS FROM THE WEST THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT.

LOW PRESSURE RACING OFF TO THE NORTHEAST THIS MORNING. CONDITIONS
QUICKLY IMPROVE TO VFR WITH GENERALLY CLEAR SKIES.

WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN PROBLEM TODAY...WITH THE STRONGEST WINDS
OCCURRING DURING THE MORNING HOURS. EXPECT NORTHWEST WINDS...20 TO 30
KTS WITH GUSTS 30 TO 40 KTS POSSIBLE THROUGH 12Z. WINDS THEN TURN
MORE TO THE WEST/NORTHWEST AS THE MORNING PROGRESSES. GUSTS WILL
DIMINISH AS WELL...BUT GUSTS INTO THE 20S CONTINUE FOR THE MORNING
HOURS.

BY AFTERNOON...WINDS TURN MORE TO THE WEST...AND GUSTS WILL BECOME
LESS FREQUENT. WINDS WILL BE LIGHT SOUTHWEST BY EVENING.
