AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
1051 AM EDT THU APR 11 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A SERIES OF SURFACE LOWS RIDING ALONG A FRONTAL BOUNDARY STALLED
FROM THE CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI VALLEY TO THE NORTHEAST WILL BRING
PERIODS OF RAIN TO OUR AREA THROUGH FRIDAY. IN ADDITION...THERE WILL
ALSO BE A CHANCE FOR SOME WINTRY PRECIPITATION IN SPOTS THROUGH
FRIDAY MORNING.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
REGIONAL RADARS DISPLAY OCCASIONAL RAIN ACROSS THE
REGION...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE NIAGARA FRONTIER AND GENESEE VALLEY
AND NOW ENTERING INTO THE EASTERN LAKE ONTARIO REGION. BASED ON
SURFACE TEMPERATURES AND SPOTTER REPORTS THERE ARE POCKETS OF
FREEZING RAIN...ACROSS BOTH THE NIAGARA FRONTIER AND INTO THE
GENESEE VALLEY. MOST REPORTS DISPLAY JUST A LIGHT GLAZING...WITH
SOME LOCALIZED AREAS WELL INLAND AND TOWARDS THE HILLS OF WYOMING
COUNTY UP TO A TENTH OF AN INCH ON TREE BRANCHES.

WITH THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY STALLED JUST TO OUR SOUTH...AND SHALLOW
COLD AIR PUSHING SOUTHWARD FROM A BROAD AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE NEAR
JAMES BAY WILL CONTINUE WITH POSSIBILITY OF FREEZING RAIN...MAINLY
FROM ABOUT WAYNE AND ONTARIO COUNTIES WESTWARD...WHERE THE COLD
NORTHEAST FLOW WILL CONTINUE AROUND FREEZING TEMPERATURES AT THE
SURFACE.

HIGHS WILL LINGER IN THE 30S WITH A NORTHEAST FLOW...EXCEPT FOR THE
SOUTHERN TIER WHERE LOW TO MID 40 AIR TEMPERATURES WILL PUSH
NORTHWARD ACROSS THE STATE LINE.

DURING THE COURSE OF TONIGHT...THE MAIN SURFACE LOW WILL LIFT
NORTHEASTWARD FROM OHIO INTO WESTERN NEW YORK. PLENTY OF WARM
ADVECTIVE LIFT AND MOISTURE IN ADVANCE OF THE LOW WILL RESULT IN
ANOTHER ROUND OF MORE SIGNIFICANT AND POTENTIALLY HEAVY PRECIP
SPREADING ACROSS THE REGION FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST OVER
TIME...FOR WHICH HIGH-END CATEGORICAL POPS WILL BE IN PLACE.
AT THE SAME TIME...THE COLUMN WILL WARM AGAIN WHICH SHOULD RESULT IN
MAINLY RAIN FALLING SOUTH OF LAKE ONTARIO...WITH A MIX OF RAIN/
FREEZING RAIN/SLEET AFFECTING THE NORTH COUNTRY WHERE SOME MINOR
ICING WILL BE POSSIBLE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
WIDESPREAD RAIN WILL BE ONGOING FRIDAY MORNING AS THE MAIN UPPER
TROUGH AXIS PIVOTS THROUGH THE REGION. THE RAIN WILL DIMINISH FROM
WEST TO EAST DURING THE DAY...ONCE THE TROUGH AXIS SHIFTS EAST AND
THE ASSOCIATED OCCLUDED FRONT CROSS THE REGION...WITH THE HINT OF A
DRY SLOT BRIEFLY WRAPPING INTO THE AREA FROM THE WEST. BEHIND THE
TROUGH AND OCCLUDED FRONT...THE OVERALL PATTERN QUIETS DOWN SOMEWHAT
AS COLDER AIR FLOW INTO THE AREA WITHIN THE EMERGING NORTHWEST FLOW.
CHANCES FOR RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS WILL PERSIST WITHIN THIS COLD UNSETTLE
CYCLONIC FLOW...BUT WIDESPREAD HEAVIER PRECIPITATION THAT WE HAVE
SEEN THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS IS NOT EXPECTED. WET SNOW IS MOST
LIKELY ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN FRIDAY NIGHT AND ESPECIALLY
SATURDAY NIGHT AS 850 MB TEMPERATURES FALL TO NEAR -8C. SNOWFALL
AMOUNTS FOR THE MOST PART SHOULD BE LIGHT...ALTHOUGH WE CAN NOT RULE
OF SOME MINOR ACCUMULATIONS OVER THE HIGHEST TERRAIN.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE IS IN POOR AGREEMENT TODAY WITH RESPECT TO THE
HANDLING OF THE NEXT SYSTEM FOR SUNDAY NIGHT INTO THE FIRST HALF OF
NEXT WEEK...AND THE POSITION OF ANOTHER QUASI-STATIONARY FRONTAL
ZONE. THE GFS BRINGS A STRONG WAVE AND ASSOCIATED SIGNIFICANT RAIN
BACK INTO WESTERN NY SUNDAY EVENING...WITH A FRONTAL ZONE STALLING
OVER WESTERN NY THROUGH MIDWEEK...SIMILAR TO WHAT WE HAVE THIS WEEK.
THE ECMWF IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT...WITH THE FIRST WAVE PASSING INTO
THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES SUNDAY NIGHT WITH THE FRONTAL ZONE REMAINING
MAINLY TO OUR NORTH AND WEST...WITH JUST A SMALLER CHANCE OF RAIN BY
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

GIVEN THE MODEL UNCERTAINTY...FOR NOW WE WILL JUST STICK CLOSE TO
THE PREVIOUS FORECAST WITH LOW CHANCES OF RAIN SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH
WEDNESDAY. AFTER A CHILLY WEEKEND TEMPERATURES WILL REBOUND AGAIN...
ESPECIALLY IF THE MORE NORTHERLY ECMWF SOLUTION VERIFIES.

&&

.AVIATION /15Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 1130Z...CONDITIONS RANGED FROM VFR UNDER SOME MID LEVEL CLOUDS
EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO...TO A RANGE OF LOW VFR TO IFR CONDITIONS SOUTH
OF THE LAKE...WITH PROGRESSIVELY LOWER CONDITIONS FOUND FURTHER
SOUTH. IN TERMS OF PRECIP...THE LEADING EDGE OF THE NEXT SWATH OF
PRECIP IS NOW PUSHING FROM THE NIAGARA FRONTIER INTO THE GENESEE
VALLEY...WITH THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA LARGELY DRY AS OF THIS
WRITING.

THROUGH THE REST OF THIS MORNING...EXPECT STEADIER PRECIPITATION AND
ASSOCIATED LOWER CIGS/VSBYS TO GRADUALLY SPREAD EAST ACROSS AREAS
SOUTH OF LAKE ONTARIO THROUGH MID MORNING...WITH CONDITIONS LOWERING
BACK TO IFR/LIFR WHERE ANY IMPROVEMENT OCCURRED OVERNIGHT. THIS
AFTERNOON...EXPECT A GENERAL WEST TO EAST DIMINISHING TREND TO THE
SWATH OF PRECIP AS ITS PARENT SHORTWAVE PUSHES EAST OF OUR REGION...
WITH CONDITIONS IMPROVING BACK TO LOWER-END MVFR.

WITH RESPECT TO PTYPE...THE PRECIP SHOULD START OFF AS ALL RAIN THIS
MORNING...THEN WITH SOME COOLING OF THE BOUNDARY LAYER COULD
POTENTIALLY MIX WITH A LITTLE FREEZING RAIN AT TIMES THROUGH EARLY
TO MID AFTERNOON NORTH OF THE SOUTHERN TIER. MEANWHILE ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN TIER... CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY REMAIN WARM ENOUGH FOR
MAINLY RAIN...WHILE PORTIONS OF THE NORTH COUNTRY WILL LIKELY REMAIN
DRY WITH VFR CIGS CONTINUING.

TONIGHT...A WAVE LOW PRESSURE OVER THE OHIO VALLEY WILL LIFT
NORTHEASTWARD INTO WESTERN NEW YORK STATE. THIS WILL BRING MORE
WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION AND IFR CONDITIONS BACK INTO THE AREA. IN
TERMS OF PTYPE...THE PRECIP SHOULD PRIMARILY FALL AS RAIN SOUTH OF
LAKE ONTARIO...WHILE A WINTRY MIX WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR A TIME ACROSS
THE NORTH COUNTRY.

OUTLOOK...
FRIDAY...MVFR/IFR IN RAIN TAPERING OFF...WITH A CHANCE OF MIXED
PRECIP ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY IN THE MORNING.
SATURDAY...VFR/MVFR WITH A CHANCE OF RAIN SHOWERS...AND POSSIBLE
HIGHER ELEVATION SNOW SHOWERS.
SUNDAY...MAINLY VFR.
MONDAY...MAINLY VFR WITH A CHANCE OF RAIN SHOWERS.

&&

.MARINE...
A NEARLY STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN DRAPED JUST SOUTH
OF THE LOWER LAKES TODAY...BEFORE LOW PRESSURE RIPPLES EASTWARD
ALONG THIS BOUNDARY THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY. IN ADVANCE OF
THIS  LOW...NORTHEASTERLY WINDS WILL INCREASE THROUGH THE DAY
TODAY...THEN WILL GRADUALLY VEER TO SOUTHERLY/SOUTHWESTERLY AND
DIMINISH FROM SOUTH TO NORTH TONIGHT AND FRIDAY. EXPECT WINDS AND
WAVES TO EASILY REACH ADVISORY LEVELS ACROSS MUCH OF THE LOWER LAKES
TODAY AND TONIGHT...FOR WHICH SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES REMAIN IN
EFFECT AS OUTLINED BELOW.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
A STALLED FRONTAL ZONE DRAPED ACROSS THE REGION WILL CONTINUE TO
PROVIDE A FOCUS FOR NUMEROUS ROUNDS OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN
THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING. TOTAL ADDITIONAL RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 2 TO 3
INCHES ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS WESTERN NY...WITH 1 TO 2 INCHES ACROSS
THE NORTH COUNTRY. TRAINING CONVECTION MAY PRODUCE LOCALLY HIGHER
AMOUNTS.

EXPECT THE RIVER FLOOD RISK TO INCREASE BY THURSDAY NIGHT AND
FRIDAY. THE FASTER RESPONDING CREEKS...SUCH AS MOST OF THE BUFFALO
AREA CREEKS AND CATTARAUGUS CREEK MAY APPROACH FLOOD STAGE SEVERAL
TIMES FOLLOWING EACH BATCH OF HEAVY RAIN...BUT SHOULD HAVE ENOUGH
TIME TO RECEDE BETWEEN BATCHES TO KEEP ANY FLOODING RELATIVELY
MINOR. OF GREATER CONCERN IS THE SLOWER RESPONDING RIVERS...SUCH
AS TONAWANDA CREEK...BLACK CREEK...AND POSSIBLY THE ALLEGHENY
RIVER. SINCE THESE ARE SLOWER TO RESPOND...EACH BATCH OF RAIN WILL
ADD TO THE PREVIOUS...WITH A STAIR-STEP CLIMB IN STAGE THROUGH
FRIDAY AND INTO THE WEEKEND. IF THESE SLOWER RIVERS DO END UP
FLOODING...THEY WOULD NOT CREST UNTIL THE WEEKEND.

&&
