AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
1220 AM EST SUN JAN 1 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE OHIO VALLEY THIS EVENING WILL BUILD ACROSS
THE AREA LATE TONIGHT AND THEN OFFSHORE ON SUNDAY. THE FIRST IN A
SERIES OF STRONG COLD FRONTS WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA SUNDAY
EVENING...FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER MONDAY EVENING. POLAR HIGH PRESSURE
BEHIND THE SECOND FRONT BUILDS EAST THROUGH MID WEEK. A WEAK AREA
OF LOW PRESSURE IS THEN FORECAST TO PASS TO THE SOUTH ON THURSDAY.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL CLOSE OUT THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE EASTERN SEABOARD DURING THE
OVERNIGHT. A SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT  CONTINUES FOR FOG ACROSS SOUTHERN CT AND EASTERN
LI. ALTHOUGH DEW POINTS WILL BE GRADUALLY DROPPING OVERNIGHT AS
DRIER AIR WORKS IN...TEMPS ARE EXPECTED TO DROP AS WELL...KEEPING
THE DEW POINT DEPRESSION LOW IN THESE AREAS. VSBYS LESS THAN 1
MILE LIKELY IN SOME SPOTS TONIGHT. KEEPING FOG OUT OF THE FORECAST
FOR THE NYC METRO AREA AS WARMER SURFACE TEMPS SHOULD KEEP THE AIR
FROM SATURATING.

UPDATED HOURLY GRIDS BASED ON LATEST OBS. NO CHANGES MADE TO
GENERAL FORECAST.

LOWS WILL RANGE FROM THE UPPER 20S WELL INLAND...TO AROUND 40 AT
THE COAST. THIS IS 10 TO 15 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM MONDAY/...
SURFACE RIDGE AXIS BUILDS ACROSS THE AREA SUN MORNING WITH A
STRENGTHENING SOUTHERLY FLOW IN THE AFTERNOON AHEAD OF THE
APPROACHING COLD FRONT. CLOUDS WILL ARRIVE IN THE LATE AFTERNOON
WITH PLENTY OF SUN AND HIGHS ONCE AGAIN AROUND 50. THIS IS ABOUT
TEN DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL.

A COLD FRONT THEN MOVES THROUGH THE AREA EARLY SUNDAY EVENING
PRECEDED BY A NARROW BAND OF SHOWERS. MOISTURE IS LIMITED...BUT
THERE IS STRONG FORCING WHICH SHOULD BE ABLE TO OVERCOME THE DRY
AIR. THAT BEING SAID...RAINFALL AMOUNTS SHOULD BE LESS THAN A
TENTH OF AN INCH...WITH THE HIGHEST AMOUNTS TO THE EAST OF NYC
WHERE MOISTURE WILL BE DEEPER.

THE COLD ADVECTION BEHIND THE FRONT AND DEEPENING LOW PRESSURE
OVER EASTERN CANADA WILL ALLOW FOR GUSTY WEST WINDS TO DEVELOP.
GUSTS UP TO 25 MPH ARE EXPECTED AFTER MIDNIGHT. THIS WILL BE THE
FIRST SHOT OF COLD AIR WITH ANOTHER COLD FRONT TO FOLLOW LATE
MONDAY. STILL THOUGH...LOOKING AT LOWS ABOVE NORMAL MONDAY
MORNING...A FEW DEGREES COOLER THAN SUN MORNING.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH AN AMPLIFYING UPPER TROUGH OVER
THE EASTERN US TO START THE PERIOD. THERE ARE TIMING ISSUES WHEN THE
TROF AXIS WILL MOVE ACROSS...BUT IT APPEARS TO BE EITHER TUE OR TUE
NIGHT. DEEP LAYERED RIDGING RETURNS FOR WED WITH ANOTHER DEEPENING
TROF APPROACHING FOR THE END OF THE WEEK.

AT THE SFC...STRONG GUSTY WINDS WILL PREVAIL MON AS SFC LOW
INTENSIFIES AS IT TRACKS INTO THE CANADIAN MARITIMES AND STRONG HIGH
PRES BUILDS INTO THE PLAINS. WINDS SUBSIDE A BIT MON NIGHT...BUT
RETURN BEHIND AN ARCTIC FRONTAL PASSAGE TUE WITH STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION.
BITTERLY COLD TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TUE NIGHT WITH THE
POSSIBILITY OF WIDESPREAD SUB ZERO WIND CHILLS. DAYTIME TEMPS TUE
AND WED WILL STRUGGLE TO REACH THE FREEZING MARK. THIS COLD AIR MASS
WILL REMAIN THROUGH WED NIGHT...THEN TEMPS MODERATE AND ARE EXPECTED
TO BE ABOVE CLIMO NORMS FOR THE LATTER PART OF THE WEEK.

AS FOR PRECIP...NO MAJOR SYSTEMS ARE EXPECTED. COULD HAVE SOME
FLURRIES MON NIGHT AND/OR TUE BUT NO ACCUMULATING SNOW IS EXPECTED.
AN AREA OF LOW PRES DEVELOPS OFF THE MID ATLANTIC COAST ON THU...BUT
IS EXPECTED TO PASS WELL SOUTH AND EAST OF THE LOCAL AREA.

&&

.AVIATION /05Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE REGION THIS MORNING. A COLD FRONT
MOVES THROUGH THE AREA THIS EVENING.

VFR EXPECTED AT NYC TERMINALS OVERNIGHT. LOW CONFIDENCE OF
CIGS/VSBYS AT TERMINALS OUTSIDE NYC TONIGHT. FOG FROM SATURDAY
EVENING HAS DIMINISHED OVER MOST OF THE REGION...INCLUDING COASTAL
CT TAF SITES. ALTHOUGH LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL DECREASE EARLY THIS
MORNING...TEMPS MAY DROP ENOUGH TO CAUSE FOG/LOW STRATUS TO
REDEVELOP AT TERMINALS OUTSIDE OF NYC IN THE PRE-DAWN HOURS.

WINDS AT NYC START NW AROUND 10 KT...DECREASING TO LESS THAN 10 KT
EARLY THIS MORNING. OUTSIDE OF NYC NW FLOW 5 KT OR LESS...OFTEN
LGT/VRB.

VFR SUNDAY. HIGH CONFIDENCE THAT WINDS BECOME S-SW LATE MORNING/EARLY
AFTN.

SUB-VFR WITH RAIN EXPECTED SUNDAY EVENING AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES.
WINDS BECOME GUSTY FROM THE W-SW.

OUTLOOK FOR 06Z MON THROUGH THU...

LATE SUN NIGHT-MON...COLD FRONT PASSES LATE SUN NGT INTO MON MRNG.
POTENTIAL FOR LLWS AHEAD OF THE FRONT. STRONG W WINDS BEHIND THE
FRONT.

TUE...STRONG WNW WINDS. POCKETS OF MVFR IN SHSN.

WED...VFR WITH STRONG NW FLOW.

THU...VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
DENSE FOG ADVISORY ISSUED FOR LONG ISLAND SOUND AND ITS ADJACENT
BAYS TONIGHT. WARMER WATER OVER THE OCEANS IS EXPECTED INHIBIT
DENSE FOG DEVELOPMENT...ALTHOUGH NEAR-SHORE FOG IS POSSIBLE.

GUSTS HAVE INCREASED TO 25KT AT 44025...BUT WINDS ALOFT ARE
EXPECTED TO DIMINISH EARLY TONIGHT...SO DID NOT ISSUE A SHORT-
FUSED SCA.

OTHERWISE PATCHY FOG OVERNIGHT WITH MINIMAL DEW POINT DEPRESSIONS
OVER THE WATER. SUB-SCA CONDITIONS ALL WATERS WITH SEAS OF 3 TO 4
FT ON THE OCEAN. A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS ACROSS THE
WATERS IN THE MORNING FOLLOWED BY A STRENGTHENING SOUTHERLY FLOW
SUN AFT. IT APPEARS THAT WINDS WILL FALL JUST SHORT OF SCA
CRITERIA AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT. HOWEVER...STRONG COLD
ADVECTION AND DEEPENING LOW PRESSURE OVER EASTERN CANADA SUN NIGHT
WILL PRODUCE A A STRONG WEST FLOW WITH POSSIBLE GALE FORE GUSTS
DEVELOPING AROUND MIDNIGHT. AS A RESULT...A GALE WATCH HAS BEEN
POSTED FOR ALL WATER SUN NIGHT INTO MON.

A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT AND GUSTY WINDS WILL REMAIN ACROSS THE
WATERS AS LOW PRES STRENGTHENS OVER THE CANADIAN MARITIMES AND
STRONG HIGH PRES BUILDS ACROSS THE PLAINS. GALES WILL BE LIKELY
THROUGH MON. WINDS MAY TEMPORARILY FALL BELOW GALE FORCE MON
NIGHT...BUT AN ARCTIC FRONT WILL TRACK ACROSS THE WATERS WITH GALE
FORCE WINDS EXPECTED AGAIN TUE/TUE NIGHT. WINDS AND SEAS GRADUALLY
DECREASE ON WED. AN AREA OF LOW PRES PASSES TO THE SE OF THE
WATERS ON THU...BUT IT APPEARS TO BE TOO FAR OFFSHORE TO CAUSE ANY
LOCAL HAZARDS AT THIS TIME.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
NO SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION IS FORECAST. UP TO A TENTH OF AN
INCH OF RAINFALL IS POSSIBLE ALONG AND AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT SUN
EVENING.
