AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
436 AM EDT WED OCT 30 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL BRING SCATTERED LIGHT RAIN
SHOWERS EARLY THIS MORNING WITH LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS POSSIBLE EAST OF
LAKE ONTARIO. FAIR AND MILD WEATHER WILL OVERSPREAD OUR REGION
THIS AFTERNOON...THEN A POTENT STORM LIFTING ACROSS THE UPPER GREAT
LAKES WILL BRING RAIN AND GUSTY WINDS FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE IS CENTERED OVER NEW ENGLAND THIS MORNING WITH
A MILD SOUTHEAST FLOW ACROSS WESTERN AND CENTRAL NEW YORK. IN THE
UPPER LEVELS A WEAK SHORTWAVE TROUGH IS WORKING ITS WAY ACROSS
EASTERN ONTARIO PROVINCE EAST TOWARD NEW ENGLAND. LAPS SOUNDING
SHOWS A SATURATED ENVIRONMENT ABOVE 10KFT. THE SHORTWAVE IS
PROVIDING ENOUGH LIFT FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS NORTH OF THE SOUTHERN
TIER WHERE SURFACE TEMPS ARE AROUND 40. HIGHER RETURNS IN SPOTS ARE
BRINGING ENOUGH RAIN TO WET THE GROUND BUT MOST OF THE ACTIVITY IS
LIKELY FALLING AS SPRINKLES AS THE PRECIP FALLS THROUGH A DRIER
SUB-10KFT LAYER.

ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY WHERE SURFACE TEMPS ARE IN THE LOWER
30S...MORE OF A RAIN/SNOW MIX ACROSS THE LOWER ELEVATIONS...AND
PRIMARILY SNOW ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN IS EXPECTED. THE SNOW
ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN COULD RESULT IN A SLUSHY HALF INCH TO AN
INCH OF ACCUMULATION THROUGH MORNING...BEFORE THE COMBINATION
OF RAPIDLY WEAKENING LIFT AND A WARMING BOUNDARY LAYER CAUSES THE
PRECIP TO MIX WITH AND EVENTUALLY CHANGEOVER TO RAIN SHOWERS AS IT
DIMINISHES.

THROUGH TODAY...THE UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL PASS INTO NEW
ENGLAND. THE LOSS OF SYNOPTIC SCALE LIFT WILL BRING END THE
RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO WHILE THE PRECIP ACROSS
WESTERN NEW YORK WILL BE FINISHED BY DAYBREAK. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
SHIFT OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST WITH MORE OF A SOUTHERLY FLOW
INCREASING ACROSS UPSTATE NEW YORK DRAWING WARMER AND MORE MOIST AIR
NORTHWARD. TEMPERATURES AT 850MB WILL RISE TO BETWEEN 4C AND 7C. THE
ADDITION OF SUNSHINE BREAKING OUT THROUGH THE AFTERNOON SOUTH OF LAKE
ONTARIO WILL HELP HIGH TEMPERATURES TO REACH INTO THE MID TO UPPER
50S WHILE LINGERING CLOUDS AND COOLER TEMPS ALOFT EAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO SHOULD KEEP HIGH TEMPS LIMITED TO AROUND 50.

TONIGHT A STRENGTHENING STORM OVER THE PLAINS WILL LIFT NORTH INTO
THE UPPER MIDWEST. EAST OF THIS STORM A WARM FRONT WILL LIFT NORTH
TOWARD THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN GREAT LAKES ON THE NOSE OF A 50-60 KT
LOW LEVEL JET. THIS WILL BRING RISING TEMPS OVER NIGHT ALONG WITH
INCREASING CHANCES OF RAIN SHOWERS AHEAD OF THE FRONT. 00Z MODELS
ARE A LITTLE FASTER WITH THE SHOWERS WHICH WILL BEGIN TO MOVE OVER
WESTERN NEW YORK AFTER MIDNIGHT. THE OVERNIGHT LOW TEMP WILL OCCUR
SHORTLY AFTER SUNSET THIS EVENING THEN TEMPERATURES WILL RISE BACK
TOWARD THE 50S BY DAYBREAK THURSDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
SURFACE LOW LOOKING TO GET BETTER ORGANIZED THURSDAY AS IT MOVES
NORTHEAST INTO THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND WESTERN GREAT LAKES.
ASSOCIATED SURFACE WARM FRONT IS EXPECTED TO LIFT NORTH WITH THE
DEVELOPING SURFACE LOW...INCREASING MOISTURE AND ISENTROPIC ASCENT
ACROSS THE WARM FRONT WILL PUSH A SOLID RAIN SHIELD NORTHEAST ACROSS
WESTERN NEW YORK THURSDAY MORNING AND INTO NORTH CENTRAL NEW YORK BY
AFTERNOON. WARM FRONTAL PASSAGE IS EXPECTED BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON IN
THE WEST AND DURING THE EVENING FARTHER EAST. THERE MAY BE A
DOWNTICK TO THE PRECIPITATION DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING HOURS AS THE AREA EMERGES INTO THE WARM SECTOR...ALTHOUGH
THE POTENTIAL FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS COULD STILL HAMPER HALLOWEEN
EVENING ACTIVITIES. THURSDAY LOOKING QUITE MILD WITH MOST HIGHS IN
THE LOWER TO MID 60S...OR PERHAPS WARMER IF THE WARM SECTOR
AIRMASS DEVELOPS NORTHEAST A BIT FASTER. THE MILD TEMPERATURES
SHOULD REMAIN FOR THE EVENING HOURS.

THURSDAY NIGHT...THE SURFACE LOW WILL MERGE WITH THE NORTHERN STREAM
PV ANOMALY LEADING TO RAPID CYCLOGENESIS OVER THE NORTHERN GREAT
LAKES. THIS WILL BRING ANOTHER SURGE OF DEEP MOISTURE NORTHWARD
COMBINED WITH ENHANCED ISENTROPIC ASCENT TO REDEVELOP WIDESPREAD
SHOWERS INTO THE REGION THURSDAY NIGHT AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING
COLD FRONT.

MODEL SUPPORT IS MOUNTING FOR A POTENTIAL WIND EVENT ACROSS THE
REGION LATE THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY WITHIN THE STRONG POST-FRONTAL
COLD AIR/SUBSIDENCE REGION...AS THE NAM IS SHOWING A SUFFICIENT
25 MB 6 HOUR PRESSURE RISE/FALL COUPLET TRACKING THROUGH THE LOWER
GREAT LAKES. THERE IS GROWING CONCERN FOR THE POTENTIAL SEVERE
CONVECTIVE SHOWERS/POSSIBLE EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS WITH THE COLD
FRONT PASSAGE DURING THE PREDAWN AND MORNING HOURS...AS A 70 KNOT
PLUS LOW LEVEL JET SURGES ACROSS THE AREA. HIGH WIND WATCH POSTED
FOR MAINLY THE LAKE SHORE COUNTIES WHERE THE GREATEST POTENTIAL
WILL EXIST FOR DAMAGING WINDS LATE THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY
AFTERNOON.

COLD CYCLONIC FLOW DEVELOPING BEHIND THE FRONT FOR FRIDAY NIGHT
WEEKEND WITH 850 MB TEMPERATURE GRADUALLY FALLING TO AROUND +2C.
THIS IS NOT NEARLY COLD ENOUGH OR SNOW BUT SHOULD SEE SOME LAKE
RESPONSE IN A WEST THEN SOUTHWEST FLOW REGIME WITH PLENTY OF
CLOUDS AND LIMITED SHOWER ACTIVITY.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
SATURDAY ANOTHER WEAKER NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED
SURFACE LOW WILL MOVE ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES. THIS MAY PRODUCE A
FEW SCATTERED SHOWERS...AND WILL ALSO SUPPORT A BETTER LIKELIHOOD
OF LAKE EFFECT RAIN SHOWERS AS COLDER AIR ALOFT AND DEEPER
MOISTURE ENTER THE REGION. SATURDAY MORNING THESE SHOWERS WILL BE
DIRECTED TOWARDS BUFFALO AND WATERTOWN ON SOUTHWEST FLOW. ON
