AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
343 PM EDT SAT OCT 13 2012
.SYNOPSIS...
A WARM FRONT PUSHING NORTH ACROSS THE LOWER GREAT LAKES WILL BRING
WIDESPREAD RAINFALL ALONG WITH MILD TEMPERATURES TONIGHT AND SUNDAY.
LOOK FOR CONTINUED UNSETTLED WEATHER ALONG WITH MORE SEASONABLE
TEMPERATURES AND WINDY CONDITIONS MONDAY AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES
NORTH OF LAKE ONTARIO INTO THE SAINT LAWRENCE VALLEY FOLLOWED BY A
RETURN TO DRIER WEATHER WITH HIGH PRESSURE BY MIDWEEK.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
REGIONAL RADARS THIS AFTERNOON SHOWING THE LEADING EDGE OF
PRECIPITATION MOVING ACROSS SOUTHERN ONTARIO/NIAGARA PENINSULA AT
THE NOSE OF THE UPPER JET ENERGY AND WITHIN THE DEVELOPING AXIS OF
ISENTROPIC ASCENT. PRECIPITATION FIGHTING WITH VERY DRY LOW LEVEL
AIR MASS IN PLACE...HOWEVER IT WILL NOT TAKE THAT MUCH LONGER FOR
RAIN TO SPREAD QUICKLY FROM WEST TO EAST ACROSS THE AREA. FAVORABLE
UPPER DIVERGENCE SIGNATURE IN THE RIGHT FRONT QUADRANT OF A 100
KNOTS PLUS UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK...COMBINED WITH PERSISTENT
ISENTROPIC ASCENT AHEAD OF APPROACHING SURFACE WAVE AND WARM
FRONTAL ZONE WILL RESULT IN RAIN...POSSIBLY MODERATE TO HEAVY AT
TIMES...BECOMING WIDESPREAD ACROSS NEARLY THE ENTIRE AREA BY
MIDNIGHT IF NOT SOONER. MODELS SOUNDING INDICATING SOME ELEVATED
INSTABILITY OVERNIGHT... ESPECIALLY IN THE VICINITY OF THE WARM
FRONTAL ZONE...THEREFORE SOME THUNDER IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION.
PERSISTENT WARM AIR ADVECTION RESULT IN SLOWLY RISING TEMPERATURES
OVERNIGHT.WIDESPREAD RAIN WILL BE ONGOING ACROSS THE AREA SUNDAY
MORNING...BEFORE ENDING FROM SOUTH TO NORTH AS THE AREA EMERGES
INTO THE WARM SECTOR AIR MASS AS THE WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTHWARD.
ONCE IN THE WARM SECTOR...A MILD BREEZY DAY WITH HIGHS IN THE
LOWER TO MID 70S...BUT MAY REMAIN IN THE 60S ACROSS THE NORTH
COUNTRY WHERE THE WARM SECTOR MAY NOT BE REALIZED THERE.
&&
.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
SUNDAY NIGHT AND EARLY MONDAY...THE UPPER LEVEL LOW IN THE CENTRAL
US WILL CONTINUE TO FORCE CYCLOGENESIS...WITH A DEEPENING SURFACE
LOW OVER LOWER MI BY SUNDAY EVENING. THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO
CONTINUE DEEPENING UNTIL ABOUT 12Z MONDAY AS IT MOVES NE INTO
SOUTHERN ONTARIO AND WELL NORTH OF LAKE ONTARIO...ABOUT THE TIME THE
COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH WESTERN NY. THIS IS A FAVORABLE TRACK FOR
WINDS IN WESTERN NY ALTHOUGH THE LOW PLACEMENT IS NORTH OF TYPICAL
HIGH WIND EVENT. SO IN THIS CASE IT LOOKS LIKE A POTENTIALLY
ADVISORY LEVEL WIND EVENT LASTING FOR SEVERAL HOURS DURING MONDAY
MORNING. CURRENTLY HAVE FORECAST GUSTS APPROACHING 50 MPH.
AS FAR AS PRECIPITATION CHANCES GO...THE FRONT ITSELF DOES NOT
APPEAR TO CONTAIN MUCH MOISTURE...AND WILL GENERALLY KEEP ONLY A
CHANCE OF MEASURABLE RAIN IN THE FORECAST WITH ITS PASSAGE.
MEANWHILE TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE QUITE WARM...EVEN SUMMERLIKE...FOR
THE FIRST HALF OF THE NIGHT...WITH TEMPERATURES FINALLY FALLING
AFTER THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH WNY. TEMPERATURES EAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO SHOULD REMAIN RELATIVELY STEADY AND MILD OVERNIGHT.
LATER MONDAY...TEMPERATURES ALOFT WILL DROP QUICKLY ENOUGH FOR A
MEAGER LAKE EFFECT RESPONSE...WITH SOME RAIN SHOWERS DOWNWIND OF THE
LAKES ON A SW FLOW VEERING TO THE W AND A MIXTURE OF LAKE EFFECT AND
UPSLOPE EFFECTS FORMING WIDESPREAD CLOUD COVER ELSEWHERE.
TEMPERATURES AT THE SURFACE SHOULD COOL WITH TIME...WITH THE HIGH
TEMPERATURE IN THE MORNING. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO TAPER OFF WITH
TIME AS THE LOW LEVEL JET AND ISALLOBARIC COMPONENT SLACKENS OFF
BEHIND THE COLD FRONT.
SOME DIFFERENCES IN MODEL OUTPUT APPEAR FAIRLY QUICKLY BY MONDAY
EVENING...WITH THE GFS DEVELOPING A WEAK COASTAL LOW...WHILE SREF
AND OTHER OPERATIONAL RUNS KEEPING A TROUGH OFF THE COAST. HPC
DOES NOT FAVOR THE GFS. THIS HAS MINIMAL IMPLICATIONS FOR WESTERN
AND CENTRAL NY WITH ANY LAKE EFFECT RAIN ENDING OVERNIGHT AS A
RIDGE BUILDS IN FOR THE WEST. HOWEVER...IT DOES CREATE SOME
UNCERTAINTY IN LATER PERIODS OF THE FORECAST...FAVORING THE ECMWF
AND IGNORING GFS OUTPUT FROM MONDAY NIGHT ON.
FOLLOWING THE MORE PROGRESSIVE ECMWF THEN...EXPECT A RIDGE IN PLACE
FOR A DRY TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT WITH HIGHS SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL
AND LOWS NEAR NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.
&&
.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THE ECMWF DEVELOPS A WEAK SURFACE LOW ON WEDNESDAY OVER THE UPPER
GREAT LAKES ON WEDNESDAY. THIS SHOULD REMAIN WELL NW OF THE AREA
WITH THE SURFACE HIGH NOW ON THE EAST COAST. THE SOUTHERLY FLOW
BETWEEN THE TWO FEATURES SHOULD ONCE AGAIN BOOST AREA TEMPERATURES
ABOVE AVERAGE AND INTO THE 60S.
A CUTOFF LOW FORMS OVER THE CENTRAL US BY THURSDAY. THIS WILL
LIKELY BECOME THE DOMINANT FEATURE OF INTEREST UPSTREAM OF NY FOR
THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK...AND INTO NEXT WEEKEND AS WELL. AN
OCCLUDED FRONTAL ZONE ATTACHED TO A SURFACE LOW IN THE VERTICALLY
STACKED SYSTEM WILL SLOWLY WORK ITS WAY EASTWARD DURING LATE NEXT
WEEK...BUT WITH UNCERTAINTY IN TIMING...WILL KEEP A CHANCE OF
SHOWERS IN THE FORECAST FOR THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.
&&
.AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
MID LEVEL CIGS WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD INTO THE REGION THIS
AFTERNOON...AS WARM ADVECTION ALOFT INCREASES AHEAD OF A
DEVELOPING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER THE MIDWEST. A WARM FRONT
ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL PUSH NORTH INTO THE FORECAST AREA
BY THIS EVENING BRINGING INCREASING CHANCES OF SHOWERS FROM WEST
TO EAST...GENERALLY AFTER 22Z. CIGS WILL CONTINUE TO LOWER TO
MVFR THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS AS STRONGER ISENTROPIC ASCENT
ARRIVES OVER THE REGION AND PRECIP INCREASES IN COVERAGE. THIS
INCREASE WILL BE COINCIDENT WITH THE ARRIVAL OF A 50-60KT LLJ
AFTER 00Z. SURFACE WINDS INCREASING TO 15 TO 20 KTS WITH GUSTS TO
25 KTS AS SOUTHERLY FLOW STRENGTHENS SHOULD BE JUST ENOUGH TO RULE
OUT LLWS...HOWEVER GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF THE JET...60KTS AT
030KFT...CANNOT RULE OUT SOME TURBULENCE IN THE LOW LEVELS.
OUTLOOK...
SUNDAY...RAIN TAPERING TO SHOWERS...WITH CONDITIONS IMPROVING FROM
MVFR TO VFR. WINDY WITH LLWS POSSIBLE.
MONDAY...VFR/MVFR WITH SHOWERS LIKELY...MAINLY EAST OF THE LAKES.
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...VFR.
THURSDAY...MAINLY VFR WITH A CHANCE OF SHOWERS.
&&
.MARINE...
HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTING TO THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC COAST WILL ALLOW
SOUTHERLY WINDS TO INCREASE TONIGHT. SMALL CRAFT CONDITIONS WILL
DEVELOP ON BOTH LAKES TONIGHT. WINDS WILL VEER TO SOUTHWEST SUNDAY
AS LOW PRESSURE DEEPENS ACROSS THE WESTERN LAKES WITH SPEEDS
MAINTAINED...ALLOWING SMALL CRAFT CONDITIONS TO REMAIN ON THE
LAKES. IN THE WAKE OF THE LOW AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT...THE
WEST SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL STRENGTHEN FURTHER WITH THE POTENTIAL
FOR A PERIOD OF GALE FORCE CONDITIONS. HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS BY
MONDAY EVENING WITH CALMER CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH MID WEEK.
