AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
240 PM EST SUN DEC 22 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A NEARLY STATIONARY FRONT FROM CENTRAL NEW YORK TO THE MAINE COAST
WILL SHIFT SLIGHTLY AS A STORM MOVES ALONG IT TODAY. NORTH OF IT
IT WILL BE CHILLY WITH RAIN AND FREEZING RAIN...WITH RAIN AND VERY
MILD WEATHER TO ITS SOUTH. THE STORM WILL DRAG A COLD FRONT
THROUGH THE REGION TONIGHT AND THEN SLIDE SLOWLY OFFSHORE MONDAY.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD FROM ONTARIO INTO NEW YORK TUESDAY INTO
CHRISTMAS...WITH MUCH COLDER AIR FILTERING INTO THE REGION. THE
WEEK WILL END WITH A SERIES OF FAST MOVING WEATHER SYSTEMS WITH
BOUTS OF SNOW SHOWERS AND GENERALLY SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
FINAL UPDATE FOR THIS TRICKY FORECAST WITH TEMPS CONTINUE TO JUMP UP
AND DOWN OVER THE LAKE GEORGE SARATOGA REGION AND CAPITAL DISTRICT.
THE FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN CANCELLED WITH VERY LIGHT ADDITIONAL
RAINFALL AMOUNTS EXPECTED FOR THE REST OF THE AFTN AND EARLY
TONIGHT. THE FREEZING RAIN ADVISORY WAS ALSO ALLOWED TO EXPIRE.
EVEN THOUGH TEMPS ARE STILL BELOW FREEZING ACROSS MUCH OF THAT
REGION...PCPN HAS ENDED THERE SO NO ADDITIONAL ICING IS EXPECTED.

POPS HAVE BEEN REDUCED TO CHANCE LEVELS IN ALL AREAS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
FOR THIS PERIOD THE MODEL SUITE (GEM/GFS/ECMWF) ARE IN FAIRLY
GOOD AGREEMENT. DURING THE THIS EVENING THE SFC LOW AND ITS UPPER
DYNAMICS WILL LIFT NE OUT OF FCA.  A SERIES OF 500HPA SHORT WAVES
WILL DIG A TROF OVER GRTLKS...MAINTAINING A STRONG SW 500HPA FLOW
OVER THE EASTERN THIRD OF THE NATION. FOR A TIME THIS WILL ACT TO
WEAKEN THE SFC LOW FURTHER OVER NEW ENG...BUT THE SFC LOW WILL
DRAG A CDFNT THROUGH THE REGION TNGT.  GIVEN THE UPPER FLOW COOLER
AIR WILL BE SLOW TO FILTER IN OVERNIGHT....AND TEMPS WILL REMAIN
ABV FREEZING IN MOST AREAS...WITH SNOW MELT CONTINUING.

BY MONDAY THIS CDFNT WILL NEARLY STALL ALONG THE EASTERN
SEABOARD...AND WITH DIGGING 500HPA TROF INTERACTING WITH THE COASTAL
BAROCLINIC ZONE WILL TRIGGER A BOUT OF OVERRUNINNG RAIN...ALONG THE
I-95 CORRIDOR THAT WILL BACK BUILD INTO SE PORTIONS OF FCA. QPF
DURING MONDAY WITH THIS SHOULD BE 0.25 TO 0.50 IN THESE AREAS...AND
GIVEN THESE AREAS WERE IN THE WARM SECTOR MUCH OF THE CURRENT
EVENT...THEY MELTED MOST OF THEIR SNOW...BUT HAD LITTLE RAINFALL.
ADD TO THAT THE 2-3 DAYS THIS OCCURRED...THE ADDITIONAL RAIN IN
SOUTHEAST AREAS MONDAY SHOULD NOT RESULT IN ANYTHING OTHER THAN
WITHIN BANK RISES.

FURTHER WEST MONDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS EAST WIND GRADIENT
WILL INCR AND AS THE 500HPA TROF PUSHES EAST A MUCH STRONGER 2NDRY
CDFNT WILL PUSH INTO THE REGION LATE MONDAY AND THROUGH MONDAY
NIGHT. TEMPS MONDAY WILL HOLDS STEADY THEN FALL DURING THE AFTN.

MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUES THE PASSAGE OF THE 500HPA TROF...CAA WILL
RESULT IN SCT -SHSN ACTIVITY. HWVR LLVL FLOW WILL BE TOTALLY
UNFAVORABLE FOR LK EFFECT OVER EASTERN NY.

ONCE THE 500HPA TROF EXITS CHRISTMAS EVE BOTH A 500HPA RIDGE...AND
SFC HIGH PRESSURE WILL SETTLE OVER NYS AND MID ATLC REGION. THIS
WILL SET THE STAGE FOR A FRIGID NIGHT WITH IDEAL RADIATIONAL
COOLING...ONE OF THE LONGEST NIGHTS OF THE YEAR...CLEAR SKIES AND
DRY AIR MASS. LOWS WILL PLUNGE TO -20F IN PARTS OF THE ADIRONDACKS
TO AROUND 10 IN THE SE.

TEMPS WILL RECOVER CHRISTMAS DAY TO THE TEENS AND 20S AS SFC HIGH
SLIDES OFFSHORE. SOME CLOUDS MAY ARRIVE IN THE AFTERNOON AS NEXT
WEAK SYSTEM APPROACHES.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE EFP WILL FEATURE A SERIES OF FAST MOVING SYSTEMS IN W-NW FLOW.
MOST WILL BE FAIRLY WK CDFNTS AND/OR 500HPA SHORT WVS...WHICH
WILL INCR CLOUDS AND PRODUCE SCT -SHSN AND AT TIMES HAVE SOME
INTERACTION WITH THE GRTLKS. TEMPS WILL RETURN TO NEAR NORMALS
AFTER A FRIGID CHRISTMAS. TYPICAL WINTER IN UPSTATE NY.

CHRISTMAS NIGHT AND THURS THE FIRST OF THESE SYSTEMS RACES ACROSS
ONTARIO...WITH A FEW WEAK FRONTS AND A 500HPA SHORT WV. MAIN
IMPACTS WILL INCR CLOUDS MAINLY N & W. THU NT IT WILL DRAG A
CDFNT THROUGH WITH SOME -SHSN ACTIVITY MAINLY N & WEST. IN ITS
WAKE FRI CAA AND A 2NDARY CDFNT AND NW FLOW WILL TRIGGER SCT -SHSN
WITH SOME LK ASSISTANCE. WK SFC HIGH BUILDS OVER FCA FRI NT.

SAT ANOTHER WK SHORT WV AND SFC SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH THE GRTLKS
WITH A LITTLE WAA INCRG CLOUDS AND SCT -SHSN IN ECMWF...GETTING SOME
ASSIST FM THE LKS. GFS HAS MORE CLOUDS AND A WIDESPREAD LT -SN OF
MAYBE AN INCH. SAT NT INTO SUN FLOW BCMS ZONAL TO WSW AT 500HPA.
WMFNT AND SFC LOW SETS UP N OF RGN.

NOT MUCH DIFFERENCE BWTN GFS AND ECMWF. WILL POPULATE WITH HPC MID
SHIFT AND TWEAK POPS A TAD. OTHERWISE A QUIET PERIOD FOR THE
HOLIDAY WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THIS AFTERNOON...FLIGHT CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO DEPEND ON THE
PLACEMENT OF A STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY...AND THE DIVIDING LINE
BETWEEN COOLER AND MORE STABLE AIR AND WARMER AND MORE WELL-MIXED
AIR. EXPECT KGFL/KALB TO REMAIN IN PREDOMINATELY IFR FLYING
CONDITIONS...AS MOISTURE AND COOL AIR FUNNELING DOWN THE HUDSON
RIVER VALLEY COMBINED WITH AN EXTREMELY STABLE BOUNDARY LAYER KEEP
FOG AT THESE LOCATIONS. HAVE ADDRESSED A TEMPO GROUP FROM 18Z-20Z AT
KGFL WHERE SUB-FREEZING TEMPERATURES AND PASSING SHOWERS MAY ALLOW
FOR A BRIEF PERIOD OF PATCHY FREEZING DRIZZLE AS WELL.

MEANWHILE...WARMER AND MORE MIXED AIR WILL ALLOW FOR PREDOMINATELY
VFR FLYING CONDITIONS MINUS OCCASIONAL MVFR FROM PASSING SHOWERS AT
KPOU/KPSF. HAVE ADDRESSED THESE WITH TEMPO GROUPS. THE SHOWERS WILL
GRADUALLY END FROM WEST TO EAST BY THIS EVENING. WINDS WILL BE
INITIALLY LIGHT AND VARIABLE AT KGFL/KALB BEFORE BECOMING SOUTHWEST
AROUND 5-10 KNOTS BY THE EARLY EVENING HOURS. SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL
BE AROUND 10 KNOTS AT KPOU AND KPSF...WITH GUSTS UP TO 20-25 KNOTS.
HAVE INCLUDED LLWS AT KGFL AND KALB THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS AS A
STRONG LOW-LEVEL JET MOVES ACROSS THE REGION BEFORE LIFTING TO THE
NORTHEAST THIS EVENING.

TONIGHT INTO MONDAY...DESPITE THE EXPECTED FRONTAL PASSAGE TONIGHT
AND ASSOCIATED MIXING ALONG WITH IT...ABUNDANT RESIDUAL LOW-LEVEL
MOISTURE WILL REMAIN ENTRENCHED ACROSS THE REGION. THE BOUNDARY
LAYER NIGHTTIME PROFILE WILL ALSO CONTINUE TO BE STABLE ALLOWING FOR
PERSISTING IFR FOG AT KGFL/KALB...AND MVFR LOW STRATUS AT
KPOU/KPSF. WINDS WILL BE LIGHT TONIGHT GENERALLY LESS THAN 5 KNOTS.

ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM APPROACHING FROM THE MID-ATLANTIC
WILL PROVIDE THE FOCUS FOR ADDITIONAL ROUNDS OF SHOWERS MAINLY FOR
KPOU/KPSF LATE IN THE TAF PERIOD. WINDS WILL BECOME SOUTHWESTERLY
MONDAY AROUND 5-10 KNOTS.

OUTLOOK...
MONDAY: LOW OPERATIONAL IMPACT. CHANCE OF -SHRAS.
MONDAY NIGHT: MODERATE OPERATIONAL IMPACT. CHANCE OF SHRA...SHSN.
TUESDAY: LOW OPERATIONAL IMPACT. SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHSN.
TUESDAY NIGHT: NO OPERATIONAL IMPACT.  NO SIG WX.
CHRISTMAS DAY: NO OPERATIONAL IMPACT.  NO SIG WX.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: NO OPERATIONAL IMPACT.  NO SIG WX.
THURSDAY-FRIDAY: LOW OPERATIONAL IMPACT. SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHSN.

.HYDROLOGY...
MILD TO UNSEASONABLY WARM TEMPERATURES WILL OCCUR THOUGH TONIGHT WITH
INCREASING SNOW MELT. LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE ALONG A NEARLY
STATIONARY FRONT FROM THE NIAGARA FRONTIER TO NEW ENGLAND BY THIS
EVENING. 1-2 INCHES OF ADDITIONAL RAINFALL IS EXPECTED IN THE
ADIRONDACKS...WITH LESSER AMOUNTS SOUTH. TEMPERATURES TODAY WILL WARM
INTO THE 50S AND 60S REMAIN ABOVE FREEZING TONIGHT.

IN THE NORTH RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL BE GREATEST...BUT SNOW MELT
SLOWER...WHILE IN THE SOUTH RAINFALL WILL BE AROUND A HALF
INCH...BUT ALMOST ALL THE SNOW WILL MELT. EVEN AS THE RAIN TAPERS
OFF THIS EVENING...SNOW MELT AND RUNOFF WILL CONTINUE TONIGHT.

IN THE SOUTH THE RAINFALL WILL BE SUFFICIENT FOR SIGNIFICANT
WITHIN BANK RISES...BUT FLOODING IS NOT EXPECTED AT THIS TIME.

THE GREATEST POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING WILL EXIST FROM THE MOHAWK
VALLEY INTO THE ADIRONDACKS WHERE 1 TO 2 INCHES ADDITIONAL RAIN
AND UP TO AN INCH OF LIQUID EQUIVALENT FROM SNOW MELT IS EXPECTED.
FLOOD WATCHES REMAIN IN EFFECT THROUGH TONIGHT.
