AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
745 AM EDT SUN MAR 30 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG STORM SYSTEM WILL GRADUALLY MOVE EASTWARD OFF THE MID
ATLANTIC COAST TODAY...EVENTUALLY PASSING SOUTH OF CAPE COD EARLY
MONDAY MORNING. THERE WILL BE A BREAK IN THE STEADY PRECIPITATION
THIS MORNING...HOWEVER ANOTHER ROUND WILL MOVE BACK IN BY THIS
AFTERNOON AND CONTINUE ACROSS MUCH OF THE LOCAL AREA THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS INTO MONDAY MORNING. COLDER AIR WILL BE DRAWN BACK
INTO THE AREA ON BRISK NORTHERLY WINDS RESULTING IN RAIN CHANGING TO
SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN ESPECIALLY TONIGHT. THE PRECIPITATION WILL
TAPER OFF FROM WEST TO EAST MONDAY MORNING.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...

LATEST RADAR TRENDS SHOWING FIRST WAVE OF PRECIP HAS EXITED OUT OF
OUR REGION. HAVE LOWERED POPS TO HIGH CHANCE THIS AM AND EARLY
AFTERNOON. OTHERWISE NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES.

COMPLICATED FORECAST CONTINUES. THE FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT
INTO MONDAY MORNING. HAVE MADE CHANGES TO THE WINTER WEATHER
ADVISORIES.

THE STEADY PRECIPITATION HAS MOVED OUT OF THE LOCAL AREA....HOWEVER
WE ARE NOT DONE WITH THIS SYSTEM. THE UPPER LEVEL LOW IS IN THE
PROCESS OF CUTTING OFF VIRGINIA AND NORTH CAROLINA. THIS WILL RESULT
IN STACKED AND SLOW MOVING STORM. THE SURFACE LOW IS CURRENTLY
LOCATED OVER DELMARVA AND WILL HEAD GRADUALLY OFFSHORE TODAY.

MAINLY RAIN HAS FALLEN ACROSS THE FORECAST...HOWEVER THE NORTHWEST
CORNER OF THE FORECAST AREA WHERE HAVE A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY HAS
HAD A WINTRY MIX. THE OLD FORGE-POINT PARK WEB CAM SHOWED A CHANGE
OVER TO SNOW OCCURRED THERE.

WILL NOT SEE MUCH OF A CHANGE IN TEMPERATURES TODAY. HOWEVER AS THE
LOW SHIFTS OFF THE COAST AND FLOW BECOMES NORTH TO NORTHWEST COLDER
AIR WILL BEGIN TO BE DRAWN INTO THE AREA ESPECIALLY AS WE HEAD INTO
LATE AFTERNOON HOURS. LOOKING AT MAINLY RAIN TODAY...HOWEVER THE
WINTRY MIX OF FREEZING RAIN...SLEET AND SNOW EXPECTED TO CONTINUE
ACROSS THE NORTHERN PORTIONS OF HERKIMER...HAMILTON AND WARREN
COUNTIES AND SPREADING SOUTHWARD TOWARD EVENING. BASED ON THIS HAVE
EXTENDED THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR THIS AREA THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS.

AS FOR NORTHERN WASHINGTON AND SOUTHEAST WARREN COUNTIES HAVE DROP
THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR THIS MORNING AS MAINLY RAIN HAS BEEN
OCCURRING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY/...
RAIN CHANGING TO FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET ACROSS MOST OF THE FORECAST
AREA THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES HAVE
BEEN ISSUED FOR ALL BUT EASTERN ULSTER...WESTERN DUTCHESS AND
SOUTHERN LITCHFIELD COUNTIES AND THIS COULD CHANGE. TIMES FOR THE
ADVISORIES VARYING.

THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR NORTHERN HERKIMER...HAMILTON AND
NORTHERN WARREN IS SET TO EXPIRE AT 2 AM MONDAY AS THE PRECIPITATION
ENDS ACROSS THIS AREA.

THE ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT FROM 8 PM UNTIL 11 AM MONDAY FOR THE MOHAWK
AND SCHOHARIE VALLEYS...GLENS FALLS AND SARATOGA REGION...WASHINGTON
COUNTY...NORTHERN AND CENTRAL TACONICS...EASTERN CATSKILLS...HELDERBERGS
     GREEN MOUNTAINS OF SOUTHERN VERMONT...AND THE BERKSHIRES.

WHILE FOR GREATER CAPITAL REGION...HUDSON VALLEY OF GREENE AND COLUMBIA
COUNTIES...SOUTHERN TACONICS...CONNECTICUT RIVER VALLEY OF SOUTHEASTERN
VERMONT...AND THE LITCHFIELD HILLS THE ADVISORY DOES NOT GO INTO
EFFECT UNTIL MIDNIGHT AND RUNS UNTIL 11 AM MONDAY.

THE MODELS AND ENSEMBLES ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THE LOW HEADS GRADUALLY
EASTWARD PASSING WELL SOUTH OF LONG ISLAND TONIGHT AND WELL OUT TO
SEA MONDAY. BY THIS EVENING WILL HAVE A BRISK NORTH TO NORTHWEST
FLOW ACROSS REGION. MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOW COLDER AIR MOVING INTO THE
BOUNDARY LAYER SETTING THE STAGE FOR SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN TONIGHT.

ICE ACCRETIONS OF UP TO A THIRD OF AN INCH ARE EXPECTED ACROSS
THE HIGHER TERRAIN WITH UP TO A QUARTER INCH POSSIBLE IN THE
VALLEY. THE PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO BE TAPERING OFF MONDAY
MORNING BUT AS THINGS LOOK NOW NOT IN TIME FOR THE MORNING COMMUTE
FOR MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA.

EVEN THOUGH THE PRECIPITATION TAPERS OFF MONDAY THE STORM WILL
STILL HAS ITS GRIP ON THE REGION. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL BE
TIGHT...WHILE HAVE BRISK AND GUSTY NORTHWESTERLY WINDS AND BELOW
NORMAL TEMPERATURES

RIDGING WILL BUILD IN AT THE SURFACE AND ALOFT MONDAY NIGHT INTO
TUESDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AT THE START OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD...AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL BE
SITUATED OVER THE NORTHEAST.

THERE IS SOME UNCERTAINTY IN WHETHER A SYSTEM MOVING ACROSS THE
UPPER GREAT LAKES CAN BRING SOME PRECIP TO THE REGION FOR TUESDAY
NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. WHILE THE 00Z ECMWF SHOWS THE UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE HOLDING IN AND KEEPING IT DRY...THE 00Z NAM/GFS IMPLIES THAT
THE SYSTEM CAN BREAK DOWN THE RIDGE ENOUGH TO BRING A COLD FRONT
THROUGH THE AREA...WITH SOME VERY LIGHT RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS
/MAINLY FOR THE HIGH TERRAIN/. FOR NOW...WILL GO WITH A SLIGHT TO
LOW CHC POPS FOR RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS...AND ONLY ALLOW FOR SNOW SHOWERS
ACROSS THE HIGH TERRAIN AND AT NIGHT. MIN TEMPS ON TUESDAY NIGHT
WILL BE IN THE UPPER 20S TO MID 30S...AND MAX TEMPS ON WEDNESDAY
WILL REACH THE MID 40S TO MID 50S.

DRY WEATHER LOOKS TO RETURN FOR WED NIGHT INTO THURSDAY WITH HIGH
PRESSURE NOSING DOWN INTO OUR AREA FROM SOUTHERN CANADA.
HOWEVER...A SERIES OF SYSTEMS WILL BE MOVING ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY
TOWARDS THE NORTHEAST FOR THE LATE WEEK PERIOD. INITIALLY...IT LOOKS
LIKE THIS FIRST SYSTEM SHOULD MOSTLY AVOID OUR AREA AND STAY TO THE
SOUTH FOR LATE THURSDAY INTO THURSDAY NIGHT. WILL ONLY GO WITH LOW
POPS FOR FAR SOUTHERN AREAS FOR THIS TIME PERIOD. HOWEVER...AS
ANOTHER SYSTEM LIFTS TOWARDS THE GREAT LAKES FOR FRIDAY AND INTO
SATURDAY...SOME PRECIP LOOKS TO MAKE IT INTO OUR AREA.  NORTHERN OR
HIGH TERRAIN AREAS MAY SEE SOME SNOW AT THE ONSET OF THE
PRECIP...OTHERWISE P-TYPE WILL BE RAIN...AS TEMPS LOOKS SEASONABLE
FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR...ALONG WITH PLENTY OF CLOUDS.  MIN TEMPS FOR
WED/THURS/FRI NIGHTS WILL BE IN THE UPPER 20S TO 30S AND MAX TEMPS
WILL BE IN THE 40S AND 50S FOR THURS...FRI AND SAT.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
STEADY RAIN HAS ENDED ACROSS THE REGION AS THE BEST FORCING HAS
SHIFTED TOWARDS NEW ENGLAND. HOWEVER...PLENTY OF LINGERING LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE IS KEEPING CIGS BOUNCING BETWEEN IFR AND MVFR
LEVELS...ALONG WITH SOME AREAS OF MIST AND DRIZZLE AS WELL.

THROUGH THE DAY...THERE MAY BE OCCASIONAL AREAS OF LIGHT RAIN...SO
HAVE ALLOWED FOR CONTINUED MVFR/IFR CIGS WITH VSBYS GENERALLY AROUND
6SM. ANOTHER BATCH OF STEADY PRECIPITATION LOOKS TO MOVE ACROSS THE
REGION FOR THE EVENING AND INTO TONIGHT. THIS MAY FALL AS FZRA/PL
FOR KGFL/KPSF/KALB...WITH MAINLY IFR CONDITIONS. EVEN AT KPOU...SOME
PL LOOKS TO MIX IN WITH THE RAIN BY LATE TONIGHT AS WELL.

OUTLOOK...
MON-TUE: NO OPERATIONAL IMPACT.  NO SIG WX.
TUE NIGHT: LOW OPERATIONAL IMPACT. SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHRA...SHSN.
WED-WED NIGHT: NO OPERATIONAL IMPACT.  NO SIG WX.
THU: LOW OPERATIONAL IMPACT. SLIGHT CHANCE OF RA.
