AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
333 PM EDT FRI JUN 8 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A WARM FRONT WILL LIFT ACROSS THE REGION SATURDAY...BRINGING WITH IT
THE CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. FOLLOWING THE FRONT A FLOW
OF INCREASINGLY WARMER AND MORE MOIST AIR WILL OVERSPREAD THE REGION
THROUGH THE START OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
A SHORTWAVE CROSSING THE NORTH COUNTRY CONTINUES TO KICK OFF A FEW
SHOWERS ACROSS SOUTHERN ONTARIO AND THE AREAS EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO.
THESE WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING HOURS THEN DISSIPATE. ELSEWHERE
SOME DIURNAL ISOLATED ACTIVITY MAINLY OVER THE FINGER LAKES/SOUTHERN
TIER COULD PRODUCE A BRIEF HEAVIER SHOWER, BUT THIS TOO WILL ONLY BE
AROUND TIL SUNSET. FAIR WEATHER WILL PREVAIL FOR A GOOD PORTION OF
THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.

LATE TONIGHT ANOTHER SHORTWAVE APPROACHES WITH INDICATION OF AN MCS
DEVELOPING ACROSS THE UPPER LAKES MOVING SOUTHEAST ALONG A WARM
FRONT ACROSS PARTS OF THE REGION ON LATER TONIGHT/SATURDAY. STILL
SOME UNCERTAINTY AS TO THE EXACT PLACEMENT SO HAVE TENDED TOWARD
MORE OF A BROADBRUSH ON POPS WITH THE HIGHEST NUMBERS GENERALLY
ACROSS THE FINGER LAKES WITH LIKELY POPS THERE. NO MENTION OF SEVERE
POTENTIAL AT THIS TIME IN THE ZONES HOWEVER WILL REISSUE THE HWO
WITH THE MENTION OF AN ISOLATED SEVERE STORM POSSIBLE.

TEMPERATURE WISE...A BIT MILDER TONIGHT THAN LAST NIGHT WITH LOW
RANGING FROM THE LOW 50S ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TIER/NORTH COUNTRY TO
THE UPPER 50S ELSEWHERE. HIGHS SATURDAY VERY DEPENDENT ON CLOUD
COVER/PRECIP WITH GENERALLY THE WESTERN SOUTHERN TIER HAVING THE
BEST CHANCE OF GETTING UP INTO THE 80S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THE SURFACE WARM FRONT AND ASSOCIATED THETA-E RIDGE WILL CONTINUE
TO GRADUALLY LIFT ACROSS THE REGION FROM THE SOUTHWEST SATURDAY
NIGHT. THEREFORE...THERE WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE LINGERING
LIKELIHOOD OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE FIRST HALF OF
THE NIGHT...BUT MORE THAN LIKELY CONFINED TO AREAS EAST OF THE
GENESEE VALLEY.

RISING HEIGHTS ALOFT WILL FOLLOW THE FRONT FOR SUNDAY AND
MONDAY...A STRONG CAP DEVELOPING SHOULD LIMIT CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL
THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF MONDAY. MID SUMMER HEAT LOOKS TO RETURN
DURING THIS PERIOD AS 850 MB TEMPERATURES WARM TO NEAR +16C. EXPECT
SURFACE TEMPERATURES TO REACH INTO THE LOWER TO MID 80S ACROSS MOST
OF THE AREA ON SUNDAY AND TO THE MID TO UPPER 80S ON MONDAY...WHEN A
FEW 90 DEGREE READINGS WILL NOT BE OUT OF THE QUESTION IN OUR
NORMALLY WARMEST LOCATIONS. COMBINED WITH DEWPOINTS RISING INTO THE
MID 60S...THIS WILL MAKE FOR FAIRLY UNCOMFORTABLE CONDITIONS BY
MONDAY AFTERNOON.

LOW PRESSURE WILL STRENGTHEN WHILE LIFTING UP THROUGH THE UPPER
LAKES...DRAGGING A COLD FRONT TOWARDS THE REGION MONDAY NIGHT AND
TUESDAY. COMPLICATING MATTERS IS THAT ENERGY AND MOISTURE CURRENTLY
ALONG THE GULF COASTAL REGION GETS PULLED NORTHWARD OUT AHEAD OF THE
APPROACHING COLD FRONT LATE MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...THIS WILL LEAD
TO INCREASING CHANCES FOR CONVECTION.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/... LATEST DETERMINISTIC
MODELS CONTINUING TO SUGGEST THE ARRIVAL THE SURFACE COLD FRONT
EARLY IN THE PERIOD...SOME TIME LATE TUESDAY NIGHT OR EARLY
WEDNESDAY. PLENTY OF MOISTURE CURRENTLY RESIDING ALONG THE GULF
COASTAL STATES WILL GET DRAWN UP ALONG AND AHEAD OF THIS
FRONT...LEADING TO THE CONTINUED LIKELIHOOD FOR CONVECTION TUESDAY
NIGHT AND LINGERING THROUGH THE DAY WEDNESDAY AS THE FRONT EASES
ACROSS THE REGION.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY...HIGH PRESSURE BECOMES ESTABLISHED
ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES IN WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT. THIS WILL LEAD TO
GENERALLY FAIR AND COMFORTABLE CONDITIONS. ALTHOUGH THERE IS SOME
SUGGESTION OF A WEAK UPPER WAVE PUSHING THROUGH THE AREA THURSDAY
NIGHT WHICH MAY BRING A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR SHOWER ACTIVITY.

TEMPERATURES FOR THE MOST PART LOOK TO BE AT OR JUST SLIGHTLY BELOW
SEASONAL NORMALS AS 850 MB TEMPERATURES FALL BACK INTO THE +8C TO
+12C RANGE.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION. AN UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE WILL CLIP NORTHERN NEW YORK THIS AFTERNOON. KART WILL
BE CLOSER TO THE SHORTWAVE...WITH THE AFTERNOON PRESENTING A
PERIOD OF CONDITIONS FAVORABLE FOR SHOWERS. AN ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORM IS POSSIBLE... TIMING WINDS BETWEEN 20 AND 00Z.

FOR TONIGHT...EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS. ANOTHER SHORTWAVE APPROACHES
EARLY SATURDAY. THIS WILL BRING SCATTERED SHOWERS TO THE REGION
WITH SHOWERS BECOMING LIKELY AND THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE DURING THE
AFTERNOON ON SATURDAY. MOST FAVORED LOCATION FOR THIS ACTIVITY IS
THE FINGER LAKES REGION, INCLUDING KROC.

OUTLOOK...
SUNDAY AND MONDAY...VFR.
TUESDAY...MVFR SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS
LIKELY. WEDNESDAY...MAINLY VFR. CHC SHOWERS.

&&

.MARINE...
SOME SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS MOVING ACROSS THE EASTERN
LAKE ONTARIO REGION AND ST LAWRENCE RIVER THIS EVENING AND SCATTERED
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ON SATURDAY COULD PRODUCE SOME SMALL HAIL AND
GUSTY WINDS. OTHERWISE...LARGE SCALE PATTERNS SHOULD KEEP LIGHT TO
MODERATE WINDS AND WAVES ACROSS THE LAKES FOR THE WEEKEND WITH NO
MARINE FLAGS EXPECTED THROUGH MONDAY.

&&

.BUF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NY...NONE.
MARINE...NONE.
