What forecasters said that day

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

NWS Binghamton, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Aug 9, 8:05 PM EDT, 1 hour 27 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 9, 8:05 PM EDT, 1 hour 27 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BINGHAMTON NY
805 PM EDT THU AUG 9 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE GREAT LAKES WILL BRING INCREASED
HUMIDITY TO THE AREA TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WHICH MAY CONTAIN BRIEF HEAVY RAIN...
GUSTY WINDS AND SMALL HAIL. SHOWERS AND THUNDER COULD LINGER INTO
SATURDAY MORNING FOR THE POCONOS AND CATSKILLS...BUT OVERALL...
DRIER AIR WILL WORK ITS WAY IN ACROSS THE REGION OVER THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
8 PM UPDATE...
STORMS OVER NORTHEAST PA IN AREA OF BEST INSTABILITY WITH PULSE
SEVERE BEING THE CONCERN ALONG WITH HEAVY RAIN AND SOME TRAINING
OF CELLS. A LINE OF STORMS HAS FIRED UP AGAIN OVER WESTERN PA AND
NY SLOWLY MOVING NORTHEAST INTO STUEBEN COUNTY. BELIEVE THAT AS
THIS MOVES INTO THE FINGER LAKE REGION THE NORTHERN PART OF THE
LINE WILL WEAKEN TO SCATTER SHOWERS WHERE AS THUNDER WILL REMAIN
POSSIBLE OVER THE SOUTHERN TIER AND NORTHEAST PA. HAVE ADJUSTED
THE POPS AND CLOUDS FOR TRENDS.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...

PULSE STORMS IGNITING AS EXPECTED ROUGHLY ALONG AND
EAST OF I-81...ALONG INSTABILITY AXIS...THOUGH PERHAPS OF A BIT
MORE COVERAGE THAN PREVIOUSLY ANTICIPATED. MEANWHILE...THE SURFACE
CONVERGENCE BOUNDARY/WEAK WAVE IS MOVING IN FROM THE WEST ON
SCHEDULE. GOOD DIURNAL HEATING AHEAD OF IT SHOULD ALLOW CONVECTION
TO CONTINUE EAST ACROSS THE AREA THE REMAINDER OF THIS AFTERNOON
INTO EARLY EVENING...WITH BEST FOCUS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN
ZONES/NORTHEAST PA. THE WAVE IS CURRENTLY WITHIN THE SMALL AREA OF
OVERLAP FOR BOTH DECENT INSTABILITY AND INCREASING SHEAR...YET
MOVING INTO AREA OF LESS SHEAR. FORECAST HAS BEEN UPDATED
ACCORDINGLY FOR EXPECTED TIMING AND LOCATION OF ACTIVITY BOTH FROM
DIURNAL PULSE CONVECTION...AND THE WAVE COMING IN FROM THE WEST. I
ALSO ADDED GUSTY WINDS WORDING TO ACCOMPANY THUNDER IN THE WEATHER
GRIDS...ALONG WITH MENTION OF POSSIBLE HEAVY RAINFALL.

INTERESTING SET UP...WITH HIGHER INSTABILITY/LOW SHEAR IN THE
CENTRAL TO EASTERN ZONES...AND HIGHER SHEAR/NOT AS MUCH INSTABILITY
IN THE WEST WHERE CLOUD COVER IMPACTED SURFACE HEATING.
STORM PREDICTION CENTER KEEPS ENTIRE AREA IN SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THERE IS SOME
THREAT...BECAUSE OF AMOUNT OF SURFACE HEATING NOW OCCURRING AHEAD OF
SURFACE BOUNDARY...AND MUCH HIGHER PRECIPITABLE WATER COMPARED TO
YESTERDAY /EXCEEDING 1.5 INCHES BY LATE AFTERNOON/. WE HAVE ALREADY
HAD A FEW PULSE STORMS WITH ELEVATED CORES...THOUGH ALMOST ALL OF
THEM NOT QUITE TO SEVERE THRESHOLDS. DECENT AMOUNT OF INSTABILITY
AS INDICATED BY 1500-2000 J/KG MIXED LAYER 0-1KM CAPE. THE SHEAR
THOUGH IS MARGINAL AT BEST...AND MAINLY IN THE WESTERN ZONES.

ACTIVITY QUICKLY WANES IN WAKE OF WAVE LATER THIS EVENING. ANOTHER
WAVE WILL APPROACH FROM SOUTHWEST TOWARDS DAWN FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS
AND POSSIBLE THUNDER.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
230 PM UPDATE...
STORM PREDICTION CENTER AGAIN HAS ENTIRE AREA UNDER SLIGHT RISK OF
SEVERE FRIDAY. SHEAR PARAMETERS LOOK PRETTY GOOD...BUT WE WILL BE
IN WARM SECTOR ALOFT WHILE ALSO HAVING LIMITED HEATING DUE
SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF LOW LEVEL CLOUD COVER. IT REMAINS UNCERTAIN
HOW MUCH SURFACE-BASED INSTABILITY WE CAN GET. AT THIS
TIME...EXPECTING SMALL EMBEDDED WAVE TO CONTINUE ITS TREK
SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST FRIDAY MORNING...WITH SOME DIURNAL
ENHANCEMENT OCCURRING ON ITS WAY OUT IN THE NORTHEASTERN ZONES
LATE MORNING. BEYOND THEN...THERE MAY BE A RELATIVE LULL...BEFORE
OCCLUDED FRONT BECOMES INVOLVED APPROACHING FROM SOUTHWEST LATE
FRIDAY AFTERNOON-EVENING TO PRODUCE ANOTHER BATCH OF RAIN/EMBEDDED
THUNDER. SEE HYDROLOGY SECTION FOR POSSIBLE WATER CONCERNS.

CUTOFF LOW STACKS WITH SURFACE LOW FRIDAY NIGHT OVER LAKE
HURON...WHICH THEN SLOWLY DRIFTS NORTH-NORTHEAST INTO QUEBEC. THIS
ALLOWS DRY SLOT TO OVERTAKE THE REGION FOR MAJORITY OF THE
WEEKEND. OTHER THAN SHOWERS/THUNDER LINGERING IN THE EASTERN ZONES
SATURDAY MORNING ASSOCIATED WITH DEPARTING OCCLUDED FRONT...ONLY
LOOKING AT SLIGHT TO LOW CHC POPS THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. BEST
CHANCE WILL BE FOR SOME INSTABILITY SHOWERS IN FINGER LAKES
THROUGH MOHAWK VALLEY SUNDAY AFTERNOON. TEMPERATURES THIS
WEEKEND...AFTER A WARM SATURDAY MORNING...WILL BE NEAR
CLIMATOLOGICAL NORMS IN WAKE OF THE OCCLUDED FRONT.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
MEDIUM RANGE MODELS IN FAIR AGREEMENT THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD
WHICH BASICALLY SHOWS A BROAD UPPER LEVEL TROF ACROSS THE
NORTHEAST THROUGH THE PERIOD. INITIALLY SFC HIGH PRES BUILDING IN
FROM THE OHIO VALLEY AFTER THE DEPARTING UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL
PROVIDE DRY WEATHER SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY. LATE MONDAY NIGHT
INTO TUESDAY, BOTH THE GFS/ECMWF SHOW A MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE
MOVING ACROSS THE AREA WITHIN THE BROAD TROF. FOR TUESDAY,
INCLUDED CHC POPS FOR TSRA ACROSS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA. THE
CHC FOR CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE THROUGH WEDNESDAY EVENING AS A
SFC COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE REGION FROM EASTERN CANADA. FOR NOW
KEPT SLIGHT CHC POPS ON THURSDAY, AS MODEL SOLUTIONS DIVERGE WITH
GFS SHOWING DRY WEATHER WITH SFC HIGH BUILDING IN BEHIND TROF
WHILE ECMWF SHOWS A VERTICALLY STACKED LOW DROPPING INTO THE SAINT
LAWRENCE VALLEY REGION.

TEMPS THROUGH THE PERIOD WILL REMAIN SEVERAL DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
DIURNAL INSTABILITY COMBINED WITH AN UPPER LEVEL LOW DROPPING INTO
THE LOWER LAKES WITH PRODUCE SCATTERED TO WIDESPREAD CONVECTION
OVER THE TERMINALS THROUGH EARLY EVENING. FOR THIS ACTIVITY
INCLUDED TEMPO GROUPS FOR TSRA/SHRA. LOSS OF INSTABILITY LATER THIS
EVENING SHOULD RESULT IN A BREAK FROM ACTIVITY LATER THIS EVENING
THROUGH LATE TONIGHT. LATE TONIGHT THROUGH MID MORNING AREA WILL
BE IN THE VCNTY OF A WARM FRONT WITH MVFR SHOWERS LIKELY. THIS
ACTIVITY WILL DISSIPATE BY EARLY TO MID MORNING WITH MORE CONVECTION
LIKELY LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING AS OCCLUSION APPROACHES TERMINALS.

S/SE WINDS AROUND 10 KNOTS BECOMING LIGHT SOUTHEAST OVERNIGHT THEN
S/SW ON SATURDAY AROUND 10 KNOTS.

OUTLOOK...
SAT AFTERNOON...MVFR IN SHRA/TSRA.
SUN THROUGH TUESDAY...MAINLY VFR.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
TRAINING OF STORMS HAVE CAUSED SOME MINOR ISSUES THIS EVENING AND
WILL CONTINUE TO BE MONITORED. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES INCREASE
FRIDAY...POOLING ABOVE 1.75 INCHES ALONG NEGATIVELY-TILTING
OCCLUDED FRONT THAT ENCROACHES LATE FRIDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
EVENING. DEPENDING ON WHAT KIND OF PRIMING WE GET FROM OUR FIRST
BATCH OF CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING...WATER PROBLEMS ARE
NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION BY THEN...PARTICULARLY CATSKILLS/POCONOS.
THIS POTENTIAL WILL BE MONITORED CLOSELY AND ASSESSED.
