What was reported inside it
| Time | Report | Where | Remark |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aug 18, 10:10 PM EDT | MARINE TSTM WIND 45 | East Moriches, NY | 39 KNOTS |
Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.
Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.
Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.
The nearest sounding before it
Brookhaven, NY (KOKX), launched 00:00Z, 2.0 hours before the alert went out and 21 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 18, 8:20 PM EDT, 1 hour 41 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
820 PM EDT THU AUG 18 2011
.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN OFFSHORE TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY NIGHT
WITH A WEAK SURFACE TROUGH FROM THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY INTO
SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY. THE HIGH MOVES EAST AS A COLD FRONT
APPROACHES FROM THE WEST SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY, THE FRONT
CROSSES THE AREA SUNDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY MONDAY. HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS BACK INTO THE AREA MONDAY AND REMAINS INTO MID WEEK.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
CONVECTION FIRED WHERE GREATEST INSTABILITY IS NOTED...AND ALONG
SFC TROUGH. MEANWHILE UPPER TROUGH REMAINS OVER THE AREA WITH
WEAK VORTS MOVING THROUGH. MIXED LAYER INSTABILITY FROM 2000 J/KG
NOTED OVER NEW JERSEY AND TOWARD NYC METRO. THIS SUPPORTED BY
LATEST LAPS/RUC SOUNDINGS.
PRECIP WATERS OF AN INCH TO AN INCH AND A HALF ALONG WITH A
GENERAL LIGHT STEERING FLOW WILL RESULT IN SLOW MOVING WEST TO
EAST STORMS...WITH POSSIBLE FLOODING LOCALLY. BASIN WIDE QPF WILL
BE A FEW TENTHS.
LEANED TOWARD THE MAV/GFS FOR LOWS. LITTLE CHANGE TO TEMPS
OVERNIGHT...WITH UPDATES TO FOLLOW LATEST TRENDS.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
SURFACE TROUGH IN THE VICINITY FRIDAY GRADUALLY WEAKENS LATE FRIDAY
NIGHT AS VERY SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT MOVES INTO THE EASTERN GREAT
LAKES BY SATURDAY MORNING. UPPER TROUGH REMAINS ACROSS THE NORTHEAST
AND INTO THE MID ATLANTIC BUT ALSO WEAKEN FRIDAY NIGHT. MOST OF THE
ENERGY MOVING THROUGH THE TROUGH IS WEST AND SOUTH OF THE AREA
FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT. AND SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE
MAINLY DIURNALLY DRIVEN. AGAIN FLOW WILL BE WEAK AND STORMS SLOW
MOVING...WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES AROUND 1 1/2 INCHES...SO
ANY GIVER LOCATION COULD RECEIVE HEAVY RAINFALL.
EXPECT A LITTLE MORE CLOUD COVER FRIDAY AND LEANED TOWARD THE COOLER
NAM NUMBERS. FOR HIGHS AND USED A BLEND FOR LOWS FRIDAY NIGHT.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
A SHORTWAVE WILL BE PUSHING EAST OF THE REGION EARLY SATURDAY WITH
SOME RIDGING ALOFT MOVING INTO SATURDAY NIGHT. GFS...NAM...AND
PREVIOUS RUN OF ECMWF AGREE WITH THIS SOLUTION BUT THE CMC IS SLOWER
WITH THE SHORTWAVE AND A BIT MORE AMPLIFIED. LIKEWISE...THERE IS
CONSISTENT Q VECTOR DIVERGENCE IN THE 850 TO 500 MB LAYER WITH THE
GFS...NAM...AND ECMWF AND A CONVERGENCE PATTERN WITH THE CMC. AT THE
SURFACE...THIS IS MANIFESTED AS A SLOW FRONTAL BOUNDARY APPROACHING
THE AREA. WITH THE GFS...NAM AND ECMWF...THE QPF FIELD IS
CONCENTRATED ALONG THE INTERIOR LOCATIONS MOSTLY TO THE NORTH AND
WEST OF THE CITY. THIS IS EVIDENT OF MORE OF A DIURNALLY DRIVEN
CONVECTIVE MODE WHICH WOULD BE PROPORTIONAL TO DAYTIME HEATING. SO
THE CONVECTION SHOULD TAPER OFF QUICKLY AFTER SUNSET WITH THE LACK
OF FORCING AND DECREASING INSTABILITY.
CONTINUING WITH A CONSENSUS OF GFS...NAM...AND ECMWF...WEAK HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS IN LATER SATURDAY NIGHT BUT WILL THEN SOON GIVE WAY
TO THE NEXT APPROACHING COLD FRONT FOR SUNDAY. THERE IS A LONGER
WAVELENGTH TROUGH WITH GREATER HEIGHT FALLS ALOFT SO THIS WILL
CREATE MORE VERTICAL FORCING AND THEREBY A HIGHER CHANCE POP. GFS
HAS A SLOWER FRONTAL MOTION THAN THE ECMWF. THE GFS KEEPS THE FRONT
TO OUR WEST ON SUNDAY AND SLOWLY BRINGS IT THROUGH BEFORE MONDAY
NIGHT. ECMWF BRINGS IT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT AND WELL OFFSHORE BY
MONDAY MORNING. CMC IS MUCH DIFFERENT BRINGING AN AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE OVER AND JUST SOUTH OF OUR REGION SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH
THE EARLY PART OF THE AFTERNOON ON SUNDAY. GFS ENSEMBLE 00Z RUN
BRINGS THE FRONT THROUGH LATER SUNDAY NIGHT.
RIDGING WITH MORE WESTERLY ALOFT WILL COME INTO PLACE AS A HIGH
PRESSURE ORIGINATING FROM THE UPPER MIDWEST MOVES INTO THE AREA FOR
LATER NEXT MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. TO ACCOUNT FOR SOME UNCERTAINTY
WITH THE TIMING OF THE FRONT ON MONDAY...WILL KEEP SLIGHT TO CHANCE
POPS FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ON MONDAY. THE TREND MAY SPEED UP
WITH SUBSEQUENT FORECASTS AND DRIER CONDITIONS WILL COME INTO PLACE
EARLIER ON MONDAY...ALSO MAKING FOR WARMER TEMPERATURES AS WELL IF
THAT SCENARIO PLAYS OUT. WILL KEEP MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY
MORNING DRY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN. GOOD AGREEMENT BETWEEN
ECMWF...GFS...AND HPC HERE.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE SEVERAL DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL FOR SATURDAY...AND
NEAR NORMAL SUNDAY WITH THE HIGHER CLOUD COVERAGE AND CHANCE FOR
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. MONDAY...CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL EVENTUALLY LOWER THROUGH THE DAY. RELATIVELY
COOLER AIRMASS BUILDS IN BY TUESDAY WITH 850 MB TEMPS DROPPING
SEVERAL DEGREES...SO HIGHS WILL BE SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL. TOWARDS
MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK...TEMPS RETURN TO NEAR NORMAL AS AIRMASS
MODERATES AND HIGH PRESSURE TRANSLATES OFFSHORE WITH RETURN
SOUTHERLY FLOW DEVELOPING.
&&
.AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AN OFFSHORE HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE MOVING SLOWLY EAST AS
A WEAK SURFACE LOW PRESSURE TROUGH MOVES SLOWLY TOWARD THE AREA.
FOR TONIGHT...SOME SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH THE NEXT FEW HOURS BEFORE DISSIPATING.
OTHERWISE...THE DEVELOPMENT OF IFR STRATUS FROM NYC EAST IS
POSSIBLE AFTER MIDNIGHT. MODELS ARE NOT HINTING AT THIS AND WILL
HAVE TO BE MONITORED. FOR NOW...WILL CARRY MVFR CIGS AND VSBY IN
TEMPOS.
ON FRIDAY...ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND TSTMS ARE FORECAST TO REDEVELOP
AHEAD OF A SLOW MOVING FRONT. MORNING CIGS AND VSBY IMPROVE BY
14Z...THEN VFR WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST EXCEPT BECOME MVFR
IN HEAVIER SHOWERS AND TSTMS.
