Area forecast discussion, Jun 28, 2:20 PM EDT, 1 hour before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
220 PM EDT FRI JUN 28 2013
.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE OVER NORTHERN NEW YORK WILL SLOWLY LIFT INTO QUEBEC.
THE SYSTEM WILL MAINTAIN UNSETTLED CONDITIONS ACROSS THE REGION
WITH THE THREAT FOR SHOWERS AND PERHAPS A THUNDERSTORM THROUGH
THE WEEKEND...HOWEVER SHOWERS WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY MORE
SCATTERED AS THE WEEKEND WEARS ON.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
FLOOD POTENTIAL CONTINUES ACROSS THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON WITH
WATCHES CONTINUING THROUGH THIS EVENING.
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE BECOMING MORE NUMEROUS THIS
AFTERNOON AS AN UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE ROTATES THROUGH WESTERN NEW
YORK AND THE LITTLE BIT OF HEATING THAT RESULTED WHEN CLOUDS
THINNED JUST ENOUGH TO ALLOW FOR A FEW HINTS AT SUNSHINE. MOIST
MORNING SOUNDINGS CONTINUE TO SHOW PWAT VALUES AROUND 1.5 INCHES.
THUNDERSTORMS ARE VERY SLOW MOVING AND IN SOME CASES NEARLY
STATIONARY ALONG PRE- EXISTING BOUNDARIES. RAINFALL AMOUNTS
EXCEEDING AN INCH IN LESS THAN AN HOUR HAVE ALREADY BEEN REPORTED
WITH SOME OF THESE CELLS AND LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS ARE POSSIBLE.
RAIN AMOUNTS IN EXCESS OF TWO INCHES WOULD BE A CONCERN PRETTY
MUCH ANYWHERE...URBAN AREAS...AREA CREEKS...AND THOSE AREAS WITH
RECENT RAINS VULNERABLE TO LESSER RAINFALL AMOUNTS.
AN UPPER TROUGH STALLS FROM SOUTHERN QUEBEC TO THE OHIO VALLEY THROUGH
THE FIRST PART OF THE WEEKEND MAINTAINING THE UNSETTLED CONDITIONS
OVER THE REGION. SHOWER/TSTM ACTIVITY WILL DECREASE OVERNIGHT WITH
THE ACTIVITY BECOMING MORE SCATTERED IN NATURE. THEN WITH DAYTIME
HEATING THE CHANCE FOR CONVECTION AGAIN INCREASES SATURDAY
AFTERNOON. THIS AGAIN HEIGHTENS THE FLOOD POTENTIAL DURING THE
DAY... ESPECIALLY GIVEN THE MOIST SOIL CONDITIONS AND BRIEFLY
INTENSE RAINFALL RATES.
OVERNIGHT LOWS SHOULD DROP INTO THE UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S WITH PATCHY
FOG IS LIKELY. THOSE AREAS THAT DO SEE SOME CLEARING IN THE CLOUD
COVER WOULD SEE FAIRLY DENSE FOG DEVELOP.
&&
.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
A FULL LATITUDE TROUGH IS FORECAST TO REMAIN IN PLACE FROM SOUTHERN
QUEBEC TO THE TENNESSEE VALLEY THROUGH THIS PERIOD. AGAIN WILL
INDICATE HIGHER POPS DURING THE AFTERNOON WHEN DAYTIME HEATING
WILL LEAD TO A BETTER CHANCE FOR A FEW THUNDERSTORMS. ALL OF THESE
FACTORS COULD LEAD TO A POTENTIAL FOR MORE FLOODING
ISSUES.
ABUNDANT CLOUD COVER AND SHOWER ACTIVITY ALONG WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER
AIR ALOFT DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL HELP
KEEP TEMPERATURES SLIGHTLY BELOW AVERAGE DURING THIS PERIOD.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
A DEEP UPPER LEVEL TROUGH EXTENDING FROM JAMES BAY ACROSS THE GREAT
LAKES DOWN TO THE CENTRAL GULF COAST WILL GRADUALLY RETROGRADE WEST
TO THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AS THE BERMUDA HIGH REASSERTS IT/S
DOMINANCE OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC. THE PRESENCE OF A DEEP LAYERED
SOUTHERLY FLOW AND AN ABUNDANT SUPPLY OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
WILL KEEP WESTERN AND NORTH CENTRAL NEW YORK IN A FAVORABLE POSITION
FOR UNSETTLED WEATHER THROUGH MUCH OF THE UPCOMING WEEK. THE BULK OF
PRECIPITATION WILL BE IN THE FORM OF DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION
WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BREAKING OUT IN THE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING HOURS EACH DAY.
TEMPERATURES DURING THE PERIOD WILL SHOW A SLOW MODERATING TREND AS
THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH SLIDES WEST AND SOMEWHAT WARMER AIR OVER THE
EAST COAST PUSHES BACK INTO THE LOWER GREAT LAKES.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MAINLY MVFR CONDITIONS PERSIST ACROSS THE REGION ALTHOUGH SCT
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ARE PRODUCING LOCALLY IFR CIGS/VSBYS. THIS
SLOW MOVING ACTIVITY WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE EVENING... GRADUALLY
WEAKENING OVERNIGHT WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING.
ABUNDANT MOISTURE IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH
THE TAF PERIOD. TONIGHT...ANY CLEARING WILL RESULT IN SOME FAIRLY
DENSE GROUND FOG.
OUTLOOK...
SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...PREDOMINANTLY VFR. SCATTERED MAINLY
AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH ASSOCIATED BRIEF
MVFR/IFR.
&&
.MARINE...
A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL PERSIST ACROSS THE EASTER GREAT
LAKES THROUGH THE WEEKEND. WHILE WINDS/WAVES WILL GENERALLY BE
BELOW SCA... SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS COULD RESULT IN LOCALLY
HIGHER WINDS/GUSTS AND WAVES.
