Area forecast discussion, Jun 6, 3:57 PM EDT, 3 hours 15 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY 357 PM EDT WED JUN 6 2012 .SYNOPSIS... LOW PRESSURE OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST WILL CONTINUE TO CIRCULATE A COOL AND SOMEWHAT MOIST AIRMASS ACROSS WESTERN AND CENTRAL NEW YORK THROUGH THURSDAY. THIS LOW WILL THEN WEAKEN WITH GENERALLY IMPROVING CONDITIONS FOR FRIDAY AND THE UPCOMING WEEKEND...WITH MID SUMMER HEAT THEN DEVELOPING BY EARLY NEXT WEEK. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/... REGIONAL RADARS SHOWING SCATTERED CONVECTION CONTINUING TO DEVELOP IN INSTABILITY AXIS SET UP EAST OF INTERSTATE 81 AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 90...WITH SURFACE BASED CAPES IN THE 500-1000 J/KG RANGE. CONVECTION HAS BEEN ROBUST ENOUGH TO RECEIVE A FEW SMALL HAIL REPORTS. ONCE WE GET INTO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS...DIMINISHING BOUNDARY LAYER HEATING AND INSTABILITY WILL RESULT IN THE CONVECTION DYING OUT FAIRLY QUICKLY...LEAVING BEHIND DRY WEATHER FOR THE BALANCE OF THE NIGHT...ALTHOUGH THERE MAY BE SOME LINGERING CLOUD COVER. OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE A BIT MILDER THAN LAST NIGHT WITH LOWS IN THE MID 40S TO MID 50S. LOOKS LIKE WESTERN AND CENTRAL NEW YORK WILL BE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE PERSISTENT UPPER LEVEL CIRCULATION FOR ONE MORE DAY...AS THE CYCLONIC CIRCULATION FINALLY SHIFTS AWAY FROM NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. MODEL SOUNDINGS NOT QUITE AS UNSTABLE AS CORE COLDEST AIR SHIFT FARTHER TO THE EAST. HOWEVER...BOUNDARY LAYER HEATING AND LINGERING MOISTURE SHOULD BE ABLE TO GENERATE SCATTERED AFTERNOON CONVECTION...MAINLY CONFINED TO INTERIOR SECTIONS. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE SIMILAR TO TODAYS WITH MOST HIGHS IN THE UPPER 60S TO MID 70S. && .SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... THIS PERIOD WILL BE MARKED BY A GENERAL WARMING TREND TO ABOVE-NORMAL TEMPERATURES AS UPPER LEVEL RIDGING OVER THE CENTRAL UNITED STATES SHIFTS EASTWARD OVER THE GREAT LAKES. A SERIES OF UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES MOVING THROUGH THE REGION COUPLED WITH A WARM FRONTAL PASSAGE WILL SERVE TO KEEP THINGS INTERESTING. ON THURSDAY NIGHT...LEFTOVER DIURNAL CONVECTION WILL FIZZLE OUT DURING THE EVENING HOURS LEVAING WHAT SHOULD BE A QUIET NIGHT WITH SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES RUNNING FROM THE MID 50S NEAR THE LAKES TO THE UPPER 40S WELL INLAND. FOR FRIDAY...MOST OF THE AREA SHOULD STAY DRY AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE MIDWEST BEGINS ITS SHIFT EAST ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY AND THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES. ONE AREA THAT HAS A POTENTIAL TO SEE SHOWERS AND THUDNERSTORMS HOWEVER IS THE NORTH COUNTRY. A 105KT 250MB JET MAX AND ACCOMPANYING MID-LEVEL VORTMAX WILL DROP ACROSS ONTARIO AND THE HUDSON VALLEY...HELPING TO TRIGGER AFTERNOON CONVECTION. WHILE THE STRONGEST FORCING WILL LIKELY BE CONFINED TO THE ADIRONDACKS AND EAST...CONEVECTION CANNOT BE RULED OUT ACROSS THE COUNTIES EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO. THIS CONVECTION SHOULD WIND DOWN FRIDAY NIGHT AS THE SHORTWAVE PASSES. UNCERTAINTY PLAGUES THE FORECAST ON SATURDAY. MODEL GUIDANCE ALL SUGGEST THAT A VORTMAX RAKING ACROSS AND DOWN THE FRONT OF THE FLATTENING H5 RIDGE OVER THE MIDWEST WILL DROP ACROSS THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES ALONG A WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT WILL BE CONCURRENTLY LIFTING ACROSS THE REGION. TIMING AND POSITION OF THIS FEATURE AND ASSOCIATED CONVECTION VARY AMONG THE MODELS WITH THE NAM/CMC MODELS BEING THE FASTEST AND MORE NORTHERLY...FOCUSING CONVECTION MAINLY NORTH/EAST OF THE GENESEE VALLEY WHILE THE GFS FOCUSES CONVECTION MORE ON THE NIAGARA FRONTIER LATER SATURDAY INTO SATURDAY NIGHT. FOR NOW WILL STICK WITH BROADBRUSH CHANCE POPS TO COVER THE UNCERTAINTY. TEMERPATURES WILL REFLECT THE CONTINUING WARMING TREND WITH HGIHS SATURDAY RUNNING IN THE MID TO UPPER 70S WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS SATURDAY NIGHT IN THE LOWER 60S. DEPENDING ON THE LOCATION/TIMING OF CONVECTION...THESE TEMPERATURES MAY NEED TO BE ADJUSTED ACCORDINGLY. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... SUNDAY AND MONDAY WILL PROVE TO BE THE WARMEST DAYS OF THE PERIOD AS THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE AXIS SHIFTS ACROSS THE REGION...WITH MONDAY BEING PARTICULARLY WARM AND MUGGY AS THE AXIS SHIFTS ACROSS TO JUST EAST OF THE REGION...PLACING THE SURFACE HIGH ALONG THE NEW ENGLAND COAST AND THUS THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES UNDER WARM AND MOIST SOUTH TO SOUTHEASTERLY RETURN FLOW. 850MB TEMPS OF AROUND +14C ON SUNDAY WILL PUMP UP TO THE +18C TO +20C RANGE BY MONDAY. THESE TEMEPERATURES ALOFT SHOULD YIELD SURFACE READINGS IN THE LOW TO MID 80S ON SUNDAY WITH UPPER 80S ON MONDAY...WITH A FEW 90 DEGREE READINGS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION IN THE WARMEST SPOTS. FACTOR IN SURFACE DEWPOINTS THAT WILL SURGE WELL INTO THE 60S AND IT WILL FEEL QUITE STICKY INDEED WITH HEAT INDICES THAT COULD REACH WELL INTO THE 90S ON MONDAY. THE MUGGY AIRMASS WILL SERVE TO RESTRICT DIURNAL COOLING AS WELL WITH LOWS THAT WILL STAY IN THE LOW TO MID 60S SUNDAY NIGHT WITH MID TO UPPER 60S MONDAY NIGHT. THE LOCATION OF THE RIDGE AXIS DIRECTLY OVERHEAD WILL PROVIDE PLENTY OF SUBSIDENCE AND MID-LEVEL WARMING TO STIFLE ANY CONVECTION AND THUS WE SHOULD SEE PLENTY OF SUNSHINE ON BOTH DAYS. LOOKING FARTHER DOWN THE ROAD...TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY WILL MARK A TRANSITION BACK TO A COOLER...MORE SEASONABLE REGIME AS A PACIFIC LOW BARRELS ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER OF THE U.S. AND INTO CANADA...TAKING UP STATION IN THE VICINITY OF HUDSON BAY BY WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL SEND COOLER AIR ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES...HOWEVER AS IS TYPICAL WHEN SUCH A TRANSITION OCCURS...STORMY WEATHER CAN BE EXPECTED. MODEL TIMING BETWEEN THE ECMWF AND GFS DIFFERS SLIGHTLY REGARDING THE TIMING OF THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE WHICH IS NOW LOOKING LIKE IT MAY DELAYED UNTIL LATER TUESDAY NIGHT OR WEDNESDAY. NONETHELESS WILL LEAVE CHANCE POPS IN ON TUESDAY IN CASE THE MODELS SPEED UP THE TIMING OF THE FRONT AND THE SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS THAT WILL ACCOMPANY IT/S PASSAGE. && .AVIATION /20Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... BOUNDARY LAYER HEATING COMBINED WITH COOLER AIR ALOFT ASSOCIATED WITH LARGE UPPER CIRCULATION ACROSS THE NORTHEAST CONUS WILL BRING AN INCREASE IN CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY ACROSS INTERIOR SECTIONS OF NEW YORK STATE. LINE OF CU MAY BE GENERATION POINT FOR CONVECTION BETWEEN KIAG AND KBUF BETWEEN 18Z AND 22Z...WITH THE BETTER CHANCES FOR CB DEVELOPMENT JUST NORTH OF KIAG. WE STILL EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL FOR THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE AREA...WITH THE CAVEAT THAT ANY HEAVIER SHOWERS/STORMS COULD PRODUCE LOCALIZED BRIEF PERIODS OF MVFR. WITH DIMINISHING HEATING AND INSTABILITY...ANY CONVECTION THAT DOES FORM SHOULD TEND TO DIE OUT FAIRLY QUICKLY THIS EVENING... LEAVING BEHIND MAINLY DRY VFR WEATHER FOR THE BALANCE OF THE NIGHT. OUTLOOK... THURSDAY...MAINLY VFR. FRIDAY...VFR. SATURDAY...VFR/MVFR WITH SHOWERS LIKELY. SUNDAY AND MONDAY...VFR. && .MARINE... NO MARINE FLAGS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH AT LEAST FRIDAY...WITH LIGHT TO MODEST WINDS AND LIMITED WAVE ACTION CONTINUING.
