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 Jul 26, 2:22 PM EDT, 2 hours 8 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 26, 2:22 PM EDT, 2 hours 8 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BINGHAMTON NY
222 PM EDT THU JUL 26 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL RACE ACROSS THE REGION THIS
AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING. SOME STORMS MAY BE SEVERE WITH LARGE
HAIL, DAMAGING WINDS BEING THE MAIN THREAT, ALONG WITH ISOLATED
TORNADOES. UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EARLY PART OF
THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
SHORT DISCUSSION TODAY DUE TO IMPENDING SVR WX...

2 PM UPDATE...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL EXIT THE AREA TO THE
SOUTHEAST AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. A COLD FRONT WILL PASS THROUGH
BY DAYBREAK FRIDAY WITH OVRNGT MINS IN THE U60S/LWR 70S. LINGERING
MOISTURE ALONG WITH EXTENSIVE CLD CVR AND RAIN WL LKLY RESULT IN
PATCHY VSBY REDUCTIONS DUE TO FOG OVRNGT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
UNSETTLED WX CONDITIONS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE RIGHT THROUGH EARLY
PORTIONS OF THE WEEKEND AS BROAD CYCLONIC FLOW PERSISTS OVER THE
NORTHEASTERN US. THE NEXT IN A SERIES OF UPPER SHORTWAVES WILL
DIVE SOUTHEAST TOWARDS OUR REGION BY EARLY FRI...WHICH WILL
INTERACT WITH ANOTHER SOUTHWARD MOVING COLD FRONT. AS THIS
OCCURS...EXPECT THE RENEWED DEVELOPMENT OF SHWRS/STORMS BY LATE
MORNING/AFTERNOON ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE AREA AS FRONTAL
CONVERGENCE INTERACTS WITH INCREASING FORCING FROM ALOFT. WITH
RESPECT TO SEVERE POTENTIAL...MUCH LOWER INSTABILITY WILL EXIST AS
TODAY/S MOISTURE WILL BE SCOURED OUT WITH THIS AFTERNOON/S
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. THAT SAID...DESPITE MODERATELY STRONG WIND
FIELDS ALOFT (0-6 KM BULK SHEAR VECTORS ON THE ORDER OF 40
KTS)...SEVERE THREAT APPEARS MARGINAL BASED ON VERY LIMITED
INSTABILITY.

BY SATURDAY...YET ANOTHER SHORTWAVE DIVING INTO THE CENTRAL
APPALACHIANS WILL INTERACT WITH THE LINGERING FRONTAL BOUNDARY
ONCE AGAIN TO PRODUCE CONTINUED CHANCES FOR SHWRS/STORMS. UPPER
WIND FIELDS APPEAR MUCH WEAKER BY SATURDAY AS MAIN MID-LEVEL JET
CORE DIVES WELL SOUTH OF OUR REGION...THIS ORGANIZED SEVERE DOES
NOT APPEAR TO BE IN THE OFFERING. AREAL COVERAGE AS SUGGESTED BY
VARIOUS FCST MODELS TO INCLUDE THE WRF AND GFS SUPPORT MAINTAINING
CHC MENTION FOR POPS ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWA THROUGH THE DAY.

FINALLY BY SATURDAY NIGHT/EARLY SUNDAY...HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE
NORTH-CENTRAL GREAT LAKES WILL FINALLY BEGIN MOVING TOWARDS THE
AREA WHICH SHOULD LEAD TO A DECREASE IN SHWR/STORM ACTIVITY.
DESPITE THE PASSAGE OF A COLD FRONT ON FRIDAY...TEMPERATURES WILL
REMAIN NEAR SEASONABLE VALUES THROUGH THE PERIOD.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
UPDATE AS OF 1 PM...IN THE INTEREST OF TIME WITH POTENTIAL SEVERE
WX LOOMING TODAY...ONLY SUBTLE CHANGES WERE MADE TO THE LONG TERM
FORECAST TODAY WHICH WAS HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY HPC DAY 3-7
GUIDANCE.

HIGH PRESSURE PARKED OVER THE REGION DURING THE LATTER HALF OF THE
WEEKEND IS PROGGED TO GIVE WAY TO A BROAD UPPER LEVEL TROF AND
DIFFUSE SURFACE LOW PRESSURE ACROSS CNY AND NEPA BY TUESDAY. NOT MUCH
TO SINK OUR TEETH INTO AS FAR AS A BONAFIDE WEATHER MAKER...BUT
DIURNAL INSTABILITY WITHIN THE CYCLONIC FLOW WILL WARRANT CHANCES
FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS AT ANY TIME AFTER MONDAY.
IF ORGANIZED LOW PRESSURE FORMS ALONG THE EASTERN SEABOARD...THEN
A CHANCE FOR STEADIER RAIN IN SOME AREAS WILL INCREASE FOR
THURSDAY. HOWEVER, MODELS ARE NOT IN GOOD CONSENSUS WITH THAT
SOLUTION AT THIS TIME.

TEMPERATURES LOOK TO BE SEASONABLE FOR LATE JULY AND EARLY AUGUST.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
130 PM UPDATE...

A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA WITH THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING
BETWEEN 18Z AND 20Z. KELM AND KITH WILL SEE -TSRA START TO AFFECT
THE TERMINALS AROUND 19Z AND REMAINING SITES WILL SEE -TSRA AFTER
20Z. SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR TERMINALS SOUTH OF THE
SOUTHERN TIER OF NY INTO NEPA. HAVE INCLUDED TEMPO GROUPS FOR
15G40KTS OUT OF THE WEST-NORTHWEST DIRECTION AS ANY SEVERE STORM
MOVES THROUGH THE TERMINALS.

STORMS WILL EXIT THE TERMINALS BETWEEN 01Z-03Z WITH MVFR
CONDITIONS SETTING IN BEHIND THE STORMS GIVEN MOISTURE PRESENT IN
ITS WAKE...WITH RESTRICTIONS TO VSBYS AND CIGS.
