AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
537 PM EDT TUE JUL 24 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE AREA TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY. LOW
PRESSURE WILL IMPACT THE NORTHEAST THURSDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDS IN FOR THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 11 PM THIS EVENING/...
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS JUST OUTSIDE OF THE CWA SHOULD DECREASE IN
INTENSITY AS THEY MOVE ACROSS THE LOCAL AREA. UPPED POPS TO
ACCOUNT FOR ANY SHOWERS THAT DO MAKE IT ACROSS OUR FAR NORTHERN
CONNECTICUT ZONES THROUGH THIS EVENING. OTHERWISE...QUIET
CONDITIONS EXPECTED WITH LOW TEMPERATURES TONIGHT IN THE UPPER 50S
TO LOWER 60S. WINDS WILL STAY UP TONIGHT AS PRESSURE GRADIENT
REMAINS TIGHT ACROSS THE AREA.

&&

.SHORT TERM /11 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
SURFACE HIGH BUILDS ACROSS THE LOCAL AREA ON WEDNESDAY. DRY AND
SEASONABLE CONDITIONS EXPECTED...WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES RISING
INTO THE MID AND UPPER 80S. THE AIR MASS WILL BE RELATIVELY DRY
WITH DEW POINTS IN THE 50S.

TEMPERATURES WEDNESDAY NIGHT SHOULD BE IN THE LOW TO MID 60S.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
OVERALL...DECENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE 12Z MODELS FOR THE END OF THE
WEEK AND THE WEEKEND. THE FIRST SURFACE LOW WILL SET UP OVER THE EASTERN
GREAT LAKES THURS...DRAGGING A WARM FRONT THRU THURS. THIS FRONT
IS EXPECTED TO STALL OVER THE REGION...WITH THE CURRENT THINKING
IS IT WILL PUSH FAR ENOUGH NORTH OF THE CWA TO LEAVE THE TRI STATE
AREA IN THE WARM SECTOR WHILE A COLD FRONT DRAPES FROM THE LOW
JUST WEST OF THE AREA. THIS SOLUTION WILL SEE AN INCREASE IN POPS
THURS...WITH THE BEST CHC LOOKING TO BE AFTERNOON AND DURING THE
EVENING. AS FOR THE FORM OF PRECIP...MULTIPLE FACTORS IN PLAY HERE
COULD SEE AN INCREASED THREAT FOR STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.
A STRONG SOUTHERLY FLOW BEHIND THE FRONT WILL GREATLY INCREASE
TEMPS AND DEWPTS...PUSHING THE DEWPTS WELL INTO THE 70S. MLCAPE
VALUES ON BOTH THE NAM AND GFS LOOK TO BETWEEN 1500-2000 J/KG
AFTER 18Z...WITH SBCAPE UP TO BETWEEN 2000-2500 J/KG. THE REGION
WILL REMAIN POSITIONED UNDER THE LLJ...PUSHING 0-6KM SHEAR VALUES
BETWEEN 40-50 KT. DECENT OMEGA IN THE HAIL GROWTH ZONE COULD ALSO
PROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT OF HAIL WITH THESE STORMS. PW VALUES PUSH
BETWEEN 1.5-2.0...SO HEAVY RAINS CAN ACCOMPANY ANY STRONGER
STORMS...THOUGH CORFIDI VECTORS DO INDICATE A DECENT ENOUGH FLOW
THAT WILL HELP IN DIMINISHING AND SLOW MOVING STORMS. SO THE
POTENTIAL IS THERE FOR DAMAGING WINDS...AND HAIL...THE QUESTION IS
NOW THE EXACT EXTENT OF THE SVR WEATHER. THE BEST THREAT LOOKS TO
REMAIN MORE OVER NJ...AND CENTRAL NY...SO FOR OUR CWA...WILL SAY
THE BETTER CHC FOR ANY SEVERE WEATHER WOULD BE WEST AND NORTH OF
THE NYC METRO AREA. SPC DOES HAVE THE ENTIRE CWA CURRENTLY IN A
SLIGHT RISK SO WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR.

THIS FIRST SURFACE LOW WILL PUSH NORTH FRIDAY...WITH A STATIONARY
FRONT THEN EXTENDING BACK TO THE SOUTHWEST TO THE NEXT LOW PUSHING
THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES. THIS NEXT LOW FINALLY PUSHES THROUGH
SAT...WITH THE COLD FRONT MAKING ITS WAY THROUGH THE NORTHEAST SAT
NIGHT. HAVE CONTINUED CHC POPS DURING THIS TIME PERIOD TO ACCOUNT
FOR THE UNSETTLED WEATHER BEING PRODUCED BY THE LOW PRESSURE.
HOWEVER...AFTER THE PASSAGE OF THE FIRST LOW/COLD FRONT...WINDS ARE
EXPECTED TO TURN MORE WESTERLY...BRINGING DOWN THE DEWPTS AS WELL
AS INSTABILITY ACROSS THE BOARD...WITH VALUES REMAINING AROUND
1000 J/KG OR LESS. WITH WINDS GREATLY WEAKENING...SHEAR VALUES
ALSO DIMINISH LESS THAN 25 KT. SO THE THINKING IS THE POSSIBILITY
FOR ANY STRONG TO SEVERE TSTMS IS VERY...VERY LOW FRIDAY INTO
SAT. AN UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE MOVES THROUGH AROUND 18Z...SO BEST
CHC FOR PRECIP FRI WILL BE FRI AFTERNOON INTO SAT MORNING...WHEN
THE STRONGER UPPER LEVEL TROUGH FINALLY IMPACTS THE NORTHEAST.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE IN BRIEFLY FOR THE END OF THE WEEKEND INTO
MONDAY...BUT ONCE AGAIN PUT IN SLIGHT CHC TO CHC POPS TUES TO
ACCOUNT FOR THE PASSING OF MULTIPLE UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES AND
SURFACE LOW PRESSURE TO THE WEST. ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS EXPECTED
THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK...BUT 850MB TEMPS DROP FOR THE WEEKEND
WITH THE NORTHWESTERLY FLOW INJECTING IN TEMPS NEAR NORMAL FOR THE
FIRST PART OF NEXT WEEK. MAINLY USED A BLENDED HPC/MOS GUIDANCE FOR
TEMPS AND DEWPTS.

&&

.AVIATION /21Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE AREA EARLY THIS EVENING.
SCT SHOWERS/TSTMS ALONG THE FRONT SHOULD MAKE IT TO KBDR.
OTHER SHOWERS TO THE WEST ARE HEADED TOWARD KTEB/KLGA...AND SHOULD
WEAKEN BUT STILL BRING BRIEF BKN VFR CIGS AS THEY MOVE OUT OF THE
HILLS TO THE NORTH/WEST DUE TO VERY DRY AIR IN THE METRO AREA.

WNW WINDS 10-15 KT WITH GUSTS 18-22 KT SHOULD SHIFT N-NW AND PICK
UP A FEW KT AFTER FROPA THIS EVENING...THEN DIMINISH LATE TONIGHT.
WINDS SHOULD PICK UP AGAIN BY ABOUT 14Z WED MORNING AND CONTINUE
THROUGH THE DAY...WITH GUSTS UP TO 20 KT. LATE DAY SEA BREEZE
WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR COASTAL TERMINALS.

...NY METRO ENHANCED AVIATION WEATHER SUPPORT...

CLOUDS AND/OR SHOWERS/TSTMS FROM LATE WED NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
SCA CONDITIONS TONIGHT...AS WINDS SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST AND COLD
AIR FLOWS OVER THE WATERS. ADVISORY LEVEL GUSTS EXPECTED ALONG WITH
SEAS APPROACHING 5 FEET ACROSS THE OUTER WATERS FOR A FEW HOURS WITH
THE LONGER FETCH OF NORTHWEST FLOW. WINDS AND SEAS WEDNESDAY WILL
REMAIN BELOW SMALL CRAFT AS HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES OVER THE AREA
WATERS.

STRONG SOUTHERLY FLOW BEHIND THE WARM FRONT THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY
WILL INCREASE WINDS...WITH POSSIBLE GUSTS UP TO 25 KT...MAINLY ON
THE OCEAN WATERS. SEAS ARE ALSO EXPECTED TO HIT 5 FT ON THE OCEAN
WATERS...WHILE THE REMAINING WATERS SHOULD REMAIN BELOW SUB-SCA
CONDITIONS. ONCE THE WINDS RELAX THIS WEEKEND...EXPECT MAINLY
SUB-SCA CONDITIONS THEN INTO NEXT WEEK.

ONE THING TO WATCH ON THE WATERS...THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE
THURSDAY INTO SATURDAY...WHICH COULD PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS AND SOME
HAIL...WITH FREQUENT LIGHTNING.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
NO SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL IS EXPECTED THROUGH WEDNESDAY. MULTIPLE ROUNDS
OF PRECIP EXPECTED THURSDAY INTO SATURDAY WITH LOW PRESSURE
LINGERING OVER THE REGION. WHILE THE OVERALL PRECIP TOTALS ARE
EXPECTED TO REMAIN LESS THAN HALF AN INCH...PW VALUES PUSHING NEAR
2.0 INCHES COULD LEAD TO THE STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCING
BETWEEN 1 AND 2 INCHES. THESE ARE EXPECTED TO BE MORE ISOLATED
THOUGH...AND NOT IMPACT THE ENTIRE REGION. URBAN AND SMALL STREAM
FLOODING CURRENTLY LOOKS TO BE THE MAIN THREAT.

&&

CT...NONE.
NY...NONE.
NJ...NONE.
