AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
1254 AM EST MON JAN 30 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT PASSES THROUGH LATE TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS ON
MONDAY. A WARM FRONT APPROACHES MONDAY NIGHT AND LIFTS NORTH OF
THE AREA TUESDAY MORNING. A COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE AREA
WEDNESDAY AND THEN MOVES THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS IN BRIEFLY ON THURSDAY. UNSETTLED FOR THURSDAY NIGHT
THROUGH SUNDAY WITH POTENTIAL IMPACTS FROM SEVERAL STORM SYSTEMS.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/...
POTENT SHORTWAVE ALOFT WITH 500 MB VORT MAX AXIS OVER WESTERN PA
WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION OVERNIGHT. COLD FRONT OVER CENTRAL PA...ON
TRACK TO CROSS THROUGH THE REGION BY 09Z FROM W TO E.

LOW LEVEL JET INCREASES QUITE A BIT JUST AHEAD OF COLD FRONT WITH
925 MB WINDS OF 40 TO 45 KT. MAX WINDS LOOK TO BE GENERALLY
THROUGH 8Z IN WAKE OF COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE. ISOLATED WIND GUSTS TO
40 MPH POSSIBLE IN 2-4 HR PERIOD IN WAKE OF COLD FRONTAL
PASSAGE...BUT GENERALLY 30 TO 35 MPH.

RADAR INDICATES WEAKENING OF PRECIP ACTIVITY PASSING OVER THE
HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF PA AND NY. THE BEST CHC FOR PRECIP REMAINS
OVER THE UPPER HUDSON RIVER VALLEY...SO HAVE KEPT HIGHER END CHC
POPS THERE. OTHERWISE...WENT HIGHER END SLIGHT CHC/LOWER END CHC
POPS FOR THE REST OF THE CWA. ALL SNOW INLAND...WITH MAINLY RAIN
WITH SOME SNOW MIXING IN NEAR THE COAST. ALL PRECIP SHOULD MOVE
THROUGH BY 09Z.

THERE IS A CHANCE SNOW SHOWERS COULD BE LOCALLY MODERATE TO HEAVY
IN THE FORM OF SNOW SQUALLS BUT WILL BE QUITE BRIEF IN DURATION.
AFFECTED AREAS COULD SEE A QUICK COATING TO AN INCH OF SNOW. THE
PRIMARY CONCERN FOR THIS WOULD BE ACROSS THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF
LOWER HUDSON VALLEY...INTERIOR NORTHEAST NEW JERSEY AND INTERIOR
SOUTHWEST CONNECTICUT.

GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS AND DRYING CONDITIONS IN WAKE OF COLD
FRONT...BUT COULD HAVE SOME LINGERING FLURRIES/ISOLATED SNOW
SHOWERS ACROSS FAR NW ZONES THROUGH AROUND DAYBREAK AS SURGE OF
COLD AIR SQUEEZES OUT MOISTURE FROM LAKE STREAMERS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/...
WINDS WILL BE DECREASING AS THE LOW PUSHES TO THE EAST OFFSHORE AND
SOUTH OF NOVA SCOTIA ON MONDAY. DRIER AIR MOVES INTO PLACE AS HIGH
PRESSURE FROM THE SOUTH WILL BE BUILDING IN WITH SOME RIDGING.
HOWEVER...COLDER 850 TEMPS DOWN TO -9 TO -13 C LEAD TO A GREATER
WEIGHT OF THE COLDER MET GUIDANCE FOR HIGH TEMPS. IN
ADDITION...LESS VERTICAL MIXING IS EXPECTED THAN TODAY WITH MIXING
UP TO A LITTLE ABOVE 850 HPA. FLOW ALOFT BECOMES QUASI-ZONAL.

MONDAY NIGHT...AN APPROACHING WARM FRONT FROM THE WEST WILL MOVE
INTO THE AREA. MOST PRECIP WILL BE IN THE FORM OF SNOW SHOWERS
MOSTLY IN THE NORTHERN ZONES. QPF AGAIN IS ONLY ON THE ORDER OF A
FEW HUNDREDTHS OF AN INCH AND FORCING IS EVEN WEAKER THAN FORCING
TONIGHT. THEREFORE...JUST LEFT SLIGHT CHANCE POPS.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTH OF THE AREA EARLY TUESDAY WITH UNSEASONABLY
MILD TEMPS EXPECTED FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. CHANCE OF SHOWERS
BEGINNING LATE TUESDAY NIGHT AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES...WITH THE
BEST CHANCE FOR RAIN ARRIVING WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AHEAD OF THE
FRONT. COLD FRONT PASSAGE EXPECTED OVERNIGHT WEDNESDAY...WITH COOLER
BUT STILL ABOVE AVERAGE TEMPS ON THURSDAY.

AFTER THURSDAY...THE PICTURE BECOMES MUCH LESS CERTAIN WITH WIDE
DIVERGENCE IN MODEL SOLUTIONS CONTINUING. ECMWF HAS COME IN EVEN
QUICKER WITH ITS HANDLING OF A SURFACE LOW MOVING OUT OF THE OHIO
VALLEY...LATEST RUN MOVES THE LOW JUST SOUTH OF THE AREA THURSDAY
NIGHT AND DEEPENS IT EAST OF THE AREA ON FRIDAY. THIS SYSTEM IS
FOLLOWED BY A COLDER SYSTEM WITH SECONDARY COASTAL LOW DEVELOPMENT
STARTING LATE SUNDAY. THE CURRENT CANADIAN RUN MOVES A PRECIP SHIELD
INTO THE AREA ON SATURDAY AHEAD OF A SOUTHERN STREAM LOW OVER THE
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND DEVELOPING SECONDARY LOW. THE OPERATIONAL GFS
IS DRY OVER THE SAME PERIOD WITH SURFACE LOWS PASSING TO THE SOUTH
AND EAST OF THE AREA ON FRIDAY AND SUNDAY. KEPT HIGHEST POPS IN FOR
SATURDAY CLOSER TO PREVIOUS ECWMF RUNS AND AS A NOD TO THE CANADIAN
SOLUTION. THIS IS EMPHATICALLY A LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST FOR THE
THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
MAINLY VFR. STRONG COLD FRONT CROSSES THE TERMINALS FROM ABOUT 05Z
THROUGH 10Z. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS BEHIND THE FRONT MONDAY.

MAIN CONCERN WILL BE STRONG WINDSHIFT FROM SW TO W BEHIND FRONT AND
2 TO 4 HR PERIOD OF 30 TO 35 KT GUSTS IN ITS WAKE. SCATTERED SNOW
SHOWERS/ISOLATED SNOW SQUALL ALONG AND IN WAKE OF COLD FRONT. BRIEF
MVFR CONDS WITH ANY SNOW SHOWERS...AND IFR OR LOWER IN HEAVIER SNOW
SQUALL. BEST CHANCE WILL BE AT KSWF.

GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS ON MONDAY...PRIMARILY LEFT OF 300 TRUE. SCT-BKN
VFR STRATO-CU FROM MID MORNING THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON AS MOISTURE
FROM LAKE STREAMERS TRAPS UNDER SUBSIDENCE INVERSION.

INCREASING HIGH AND MID CLOUDS LATE. A FEW FLURRIES OR VERY LIGHT
SNOW SHOWERS POSSIBLE TONIGHT IN WAA.

OUTLOOK FOR 06Z TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
LATE TONIGHT...MAINLY VFR. A FEW FLURRIES OR VERY LIGHT SNOW
SHOWERS.
TUESDAY...VFR.
WEDNESDAY...SUB-VFR POSSIBLE IN RAIN.
THURSDAY...VFR.
FRIDAY...LOW CHANCE OF SUB VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
GALES EXPECTED TO DEVELOP BETWEEN 5Z AND 9Z FROM W TO E TONIGHT
ACROSS THE WATERS AND THEN DIMINISH TOWARDS MONDAY MORNING AS COLD
FRONT CROSSES THE WATERS. SEAS BUILDING TO 5 TO 9 FT ON THE OCEAN
AND 3 TO 5 FT ON LI SOUND...HIGHEST EAST IN STRONG OFFSHORE FLOW.
SCA THEREAFTER LATER ON MONDAY AS LOW PULLS AWAY OFFSHORE.

SCA LEVEL SEAS FOR THE ATLANTIC ZONES EXPECTED ON TUESDAY WITH
STRONG SOUTHERLY FLOW FOLLOWING WARM FRONTAL PASSAGE. SEAS MAY
BRIEFLY SUBSIDE BELOW SCA CRITERIA TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY
BEFORE BUILDING BACK LATE WEDNESDAY AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT. ROUGH
SEAS CONTINUING WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY MORNING FOLLOWING COLD
FRONT PASSAGE...BEFORE DIMINISHING LATE THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
ANY LIQUID EQUIVALENT PRECIPITATION THROUGH WEDNESDAY IS EXPECTED
TO BE GENERALLY LESS THAN A TENTH OF AN INCH ON AVERAGE.

&&

.EQUIPMENT...
THE WEATHER OBSERVATION FROM CENTRAL PARK WILL BE UNAVAILABLE
UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. THIS IS DUE TO A SIGNIFICANT POWER
INTERRUPTION TO THE CENTRAL PARK AUTOMATED SURFACE OBSERVING
STATION /ASOS/ AND BACKUP STATION. UTILITY WORKERS ARE ADDRESSING
THE PROBLEM...BUT THERE IS CURRENTLY NO ESTIMATED TIME FOR RETURN
TO SERVICE.
