AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
353 AM EDT MON SEP 2 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE AREA TODAY...WILL GIVE WAY TO A
COLD FRONT WHICH CROSSES THE TRI-STATE FROM TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY. HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS IN TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS
ANOTHER COLD FRONT ADVANCES FROM THE NORTH. THIS FRONT WILL PUSH
SOUTH OF THE AREA ON THURSDAY WITH ANOTHER AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDING IN FROM THE GREAT LAKES. THIS HIGH WILL TRACK TO THE MID
ATLANTIC COAST BY THE END OF THE WORK WEEK AS A WARM FRONT PASSES
TO OUR NORTH. YET ANOTHER COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH FOR THE
UPCOMING WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SUGGEST 3-4 SHORTWAVES ARE IN LINE TO
IMPACT THE AREA TODAY. AS THEY PASS...WILL ACT UPON MOIST...HUMID
AIRMASS IN PLACE AND BROAD SURFACE TROUGH OVER THE REGION TO
PRODUCE SCT TO AT TIME NUMEROUS SHRA...WITH SCT TSTMS. GIVEN VERY
MOIST LOW- MID LEVELS LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL IS POSSIBLE WITH ANY
STRONGER CONVECTION. REFER TO THE HYDROLOGY SECTION OF THE AFD FOR
DETAILS.

FOR HIGHS TODAY USED A BLEND OF MAV/MET GUIDANCE WITH A MIX DOWN
FROM 950 HPA PER BUFKIT SOUNDINGS AND NAM 2-METER TEMPERATURES.
BASED ON THIS...HIGHS SHOULD RUN A FEW DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL.

THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS AT THE ATLANTIC OCEAN
BEACHES INTO THIS EVENING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/...
CLOSED LOW TRACKS FROM SE ONTARIO INTO SE QUEBEC FROM THIS EVENING
THROUGH TUESDAY AS IT SLOWLY OPENS. SHORTWAVES COMING AROUND THE
BASE OF THE LOW/DEVELOPING TROUGH AND FORCING AHEAD OF A PASSING
COULD FRONT SHOULD PRODUCE SCT CONVECTION. LATEST GUIDANCE
SHOWING BEST CHANCE THIS EVENING...WITH A LULL OVERNIGHT...THEN
ANOTHER ROUND OF CONVECTION TUESDAY MORNING/EARLY AFTERNOON
IMMEDIATELY AHEAD OF THE FRONT. BEST DYNAMICS IS FORECAST TO PASS
TO OUR NORTH WITH THE OPENING UPPER LOW - HENCE RESTRICTING POPS
TO CHANCE TONIGHT...THEN LIKELY ON TUESDAY WITH THE COLD FRONT.
SEE HYDROLOGY SECTION OF AFD FOR DETAILS ON EXPECTED RAINFALL
AMOUNTS AND POSSIBLE IMPACTS.

FOR LOWS TONIGHT USED A BLEND OF MAV/MET GUIDANCE WITH NAM 2-METER
TEMPERATURES - WITH VALES EXPECTED TO BE AROUND 5 DEGREES ABOVE
NORMAL. HIGHS TUESDAY SHOULD BE A FEW DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL - BASED
ON A BLEND OF MIXING DOWN FROM 900 HPA AND 875 HPA WELL
INLAND...WITH NAM 2-METER TEMPERATURES AND A BLEND OF MAV/MET
GUIDANCE.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE LONG TERM PERIOD WILL START WITH A LONGWAVE TROUGH DOMINATING
THE NORTHEAST WITH LARGE RIDGE OVER THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PART OF
THE COUNTRY AND A CUTOFF LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OFF THE PAC NW. THE NE
TROUGH WILL REMAIN IN PLACE THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD WITH A
SERIES OF SHORTWAVES MOVING THROUGH THE FLOW.

MODELS ARE IS GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK...WITH THE
EXCEPTION OF THE CMC WHICH DEVELOPS THE TROPICAL WAVE CURRENTLY NEAR
THE LESSER ANTILLES AND CURVES IT OVER 30N 70W ON SAT...WITH JUST
SOME SLIGHT TIMING DIFFERENCES WITH A COLD FROPA NEXT WEEKEND.

DESPITE A FAIRLY ACTIVE NORTHERN STREAM...FAIRLY BENIGN WEATHER IS
EXPECTED. AT THE SFC...HIGH PRES BUILDS IN ON WED WITH A MUCH MORE
COMFORTABLE AIRMASS BEHIND THE COLD FRONT. A WEAK COLD FRONT
APPROACHING FROM THE NORTH MAY TRIGGER SOME SHOWERS ON THU WITH
ANOTHER AREA OF HIGH PRES BUILDING IN FROM THE GREAT LAKES BEHIND
IT. DRY WEATHER WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK...ALTHOUGH
A SW FLOW WILL DEVELOP AS THE HIGH SINKS TO THE S. THIS WILL RESULT
IN INCREASING HUMIDITY LEVELS ONCE AGAIN BEFORE YET ANOTHER COLD
FRONT PASSES THROUGH NEXT WEEKEND.

TEMPS WILL REMAIN NEAR TO SLIGHTLY BELOW SEASONABLE LEVELS THROUGH
THE PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /07Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A COLD FRONT ACROSS THE MIDWEST WILL TRACK SLOWLY TOWARD THE AREA
THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD.

CONDITIONS VARY FROM VFR TO LIFR ACROSS THE FORECAST REGION WITH
THE LOWEST CONDITIONS AT THE COASTAL TERMINALS. THERE COULD BE
SOME FLUCTUATION OF ONE CATEGORY AT TIMES BUT OVERALL WOULD EXPECT
CONDITIONS TO BE MOSTLY LIFR/IFR THROUGH EARLY-MID MORNING. SOME
IMPROVEMENT IN CONDITIONS IS FORECAST THIS AFTERNOON.
HOWEVER...THERE IS AN UNCERTAINTY OF 2-3 HOURS WITH THIS.

SHOWERS WILL BE SCATTERED IN COVERAGE THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING
WITH COVERAGE INCREASING THEREAFTER. THUNDERSTORMS WILL ALSO BE
SCATTERED IN COVERAGE DURING THE DAY. IT WILL BE VERY DIFFICULT
TO PINPOINT TO WITHIN 1-2 HOURS EXACT THUNDERSTORM PATHS BEFORE
THEY DEVELOP SO THE CHANCE OF TERMINAL IMPACT REMAINS LOW AT THE
MOMENT GIVEN THE UNCERTAINTY.

WINDS WILL BE GENERALLY 10 KTS OR LESS AND FROM A SOUTHERLY
DIRECTION THROUGH THE DAY WITH A MORE SW-W TURN LATER TONIGHT
WITH THE APPROACH OF THE COLD FRONT. CONFIDENCE MODERATE WITH WIND
FORECAST AND LOW WITH CATEGORY FORECAST.

OUTLOOK FOR 00Z TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
.TONIGHT...LOWERING COVERAGE OF SHRA/TSTMS. AREAS OF MVFR OR
LOWER IN FOG/STRATUS.
.TUESDAY...SCT-NUMEROUS SHRA/TSTMS. AREAS OF MVFR OR LOWER. WIND
SHIFT TO THE NW BEHIND THE FRONT WITH IMPROVEMENT TO VFR.
.WEDNESDAY...VFR WITH W FLOW.
.THURSDAY...VFR. WINDS SHIFT TO THE N LATE.
.FRIDAY...VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
A LIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT OVER THE REGION WILL KEEP WINDS TO 10 KT
OR LESS THROUGH TUESDAY AND SEAS TO 3 FT OR LESS ON THE COASTAL
OCEAN WATERS AND 1 FT OR LESS ELSEWHERE. SCT-NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL IMPACT THE WATERS THROUGH TUESDAY AS WELL.

WINDS AND SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO REMAIN BELOW SCA LEVELS
THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
CURRENTLY FORECASTING AN ADDITIONAL 1/2 TO AROUND 3/4 INCH OF
RAINFALL...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE THROUGH EARLY
TUESDAY AFTERNOON. THE BEST CHANCE OF LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL
BE INTO EARLY EVENING...WITH PRECIPITABLE WATERS FORECAST TO
INCREASE TO 2-2.25 INCHES. PRECIPITABLE WATERS THAN FALL OF TO
AROUND 1.5 INCHES TONIGHT...THEN TO 1.25-1.5 INCHES ON TUESDAY.

WHILE THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY OF ISOLATED FLASH FLOODING...THE
MOST LIKELY OUTCOME OF ANY LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE MINOR
URBAN/POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING. BASED ON THIS DO NOT HAVE THE
REQUIRED 50 PERCENT CONFIDENCE IN FLASH FLOODING TO ISSUE A FLASH
FLOOD WATCH AT THIS TIME. HOWEVER...WITH 30 PERCENT CONFIDENCE IN
FLASH FLOODING...WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT THIS THREAT IN THE HWO
THROUGH THIS EVENING.

NO SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF
THE FORECAST PERIOD.

&&

.EQUIPMENT...
DUE TO INTERFERENCE ISSUES WITH THE U.S. COAST GUARD...THE NEW
YORK CITY NOAA ALL HAZARDS WEATHER RADIO STATION KWO35 HAS BEEN
TEMPORARILY TAKEN OUT OF SERVICE WHILE A SOLUTION IS

DURING THIS TIME...THE TRANSMITTER MAY BE RETURNED TO SERVICE
INTERMITTENTLY FOR USE OF THE NOAA ALL HAZARDS RADIO PUBLIC WARNING
