AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BUFFALO NY
344 PM EDT TUE MAR 18 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE DRAPED FROM CENTRAL QUEBEC TO NEW ENGLAND WILL SLIDE
EAST INTO THE CANADIAN MARITIMES TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...ALLOWING
LOW PRESSURE TO LIFT FROM THE LOWER MISSOURI VALLEY TO THE CENTRAL
GREAT LAKES. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING SOME RAIN SHOWERS AND ANOTHER
DAY OF MILDER TEMPERATURES ON WEDNESDAY...WITH SOME ADDITIONAL RAIN
AND SNOW SHOWERS AND SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES THEN
FOLLOWING FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
TONIGHT...HIGH PRESSURE DRAPED FROM CENTRAL QUEBEC TO NEW ENGLAND
WILL BEGIN TO SLOWLY DRIFT EASTWARD...ALLOWING A MID LEVEL TROUGH
AND ITS ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW TO LIFT INTO THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES
FROM THE MISSOURI VALLEY. MAINLY CLEAR SKIES TO START OFF THIS
EVENING WILL SLOWLY GIVE WAY TO INCREASING MID AND HIGH CLOUDS OVER
TIME AS WARM AIR ADVECTION INCREASES ALOFT OUT AHEAD OF THIS
SYSTEM...THOUGH ANY OF ITS ASSOCIATED PRECIP STILL LOOKS TO REMAIN
SAFELY TO OUR WEST THROUGH THE NIGHT. NIGHTTIME LOWS WILL BE IN THE
UPPER 20S TO LOWER 30S SOUTH OF LAKE ONTARIO AND THE UPPER TEENS TO
LOWER 20S ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY AND SHOULD COME AROUND OR SHORTLY
AFTER MIDNIGHT...WITH READINGS THEN SLOWLY RISING LATER ON IN THE
NIGHT DUE TO AN INCREASING SOUTHERLY/SOUTHEASTERLY LOW LEVEL FLOW.
BY MORNING...READINGS SHOULD CLIMB BACK INTO THE LOWER TO MID 20S
ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY AND TO THE UPPER 20S TO MID 30S ACROSS MUCH
OF THE REST OF THE AREA...WITH AREAS ALONG THE IMMEDIATE LAKE ERIE
SHORE POTENTIALLY BREACHING THE 40 DEGREE MARK BY THAT TIME.

SPEAKING OF THE DOWNSLOPE FLOW...THE STRONGER WINDS LATER TONIGHT
WILL BE FOUND FROM THE CHAUTAUQUA RIDGE NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE
HIGHER TERRAIN SOUTH OF BUFFALO AND ROCHESTER...WHERE AN ELONGATED
40-45 KT LOW LEVEL JET WILL TAKE SHAPE AROUND 2000 TO 2500 FEET.
WHILE THESE WINDS WILL BE UNLIKELY TO COMPLETELY MIX DOWN TO THE
SURFACE GIVEN THE WARM AIR ADVECTION PATTERN AND RESULTANT STABLE
TEMPERATURE PROFILE...SOME 20-30 MPH SUSTAINED WINDS WITH GUSTS TO
40 MPH OR SO WILL STILL BE LIKELY ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN...AS
WELL AS IN IN THE TYPICALLY FAVORED DOWNSLOPE FLOW AREAS NEAR THE
LAKE ERIE SHORE. ELSEWHERE...EXPECT SOMEWHAT LOWER WIND SPEEDS LATER
ON TONIGHT.

ON WEDNESDAY...THE MID LEVEL TROUGH AND SURFACE LOW WILL LIFT
NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE CENTRAL GREAT LAKES...WITH THE SURFACE
FEATURE EVENTUALLY REACHING LAKE HURON BY THE END OF THE DAY. DURING
THE MORNING HOURS...THE CONTINUED OVERALL WARM AIR ADVECTION PATTERN
WILL INITIALLY BRING THE CHANCE OF SOME SPOTTY LIGHT PRECIP INTO THE
AREA...FOR WHICH SOME SLOWLY INCREASING CHANCE POPS WILL REMAIN IN
PLAY. IN THE AFTERNOON...THE LIGHT PRECIP SHOULD EVENTUALLY BECOME
A BIT MORE WIDESPREAD WITH THE PASSAGE OF MULTIPLE SHORTWAVE
FEATURES ALOFT...A STRONGER LOW LEVEL JET SEGMENT...AND AN AREA OF
DIFFLUENT FLOW ALOFT ASSOCIATED WITH THE LEFT FRONT QUAD OF A 120 KT
UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK SLIDING ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY. HAVE THUS
CONTINUED TO RAMP UP POPS TO THE LIKELY TO CATEGORICAL RANGE FOR
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...ALBEIT A LITTLE MORE SLOWLY THAN CONTINUITY
GIVEN THE CONTINUED DELETERIOUS EFFECTS OF A CONTINUED DRYING
SOUTHERLY DOWNSLOPE FLOW...WHICH CAN OFTENTIMES PLAY HAVOC ON
ADVANCING PRECIP IN THESE SITUATIONS.

WITH THE WARM AIR ADVECTION PATTERN AND INCREASING DOWNSLOPE FLOW
HELPING TO FURTHER BOOST TEMPS BOTH AT THE SURFACE AND ALOFT...
EXPECT THE BULK OF WEDNESDAY/S PRECIP TO FALL MAINLY IN THE FORM OF
PLAIN RAIN SHOWERS...THOUGH IT MAY STILL BE COLD ENOUGH ACROSS THE
HIGHER TERRAIN OF THE NORTH COUNTRY TO ALLOW A LITTLE WET SNOW TO
MIX IN AT THE ONSET. EXPECT HIGH TEMPS TO RANGE FROM THE MID 30S TO
LOWER 40S ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY...TO THE MID 40S TO LOWER 50S
ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA SOUTH OF LAKE ONTARIO. THE WARMEST READINGS
OF ALL WILL BE FOUND ACROSS THE LAKE PLAINS OF EXTREME FAR WESTERN
NEW YORK...WHERE THE DOWNSLOPING EFFECTS WILL BE THE STRONGEST.

AS FOR THE WINDS THEMSELVES...THE STRENGTHENING SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL
LEAD TO WINDY CONDITIONS BECOMING MORE WIDESPREAD DURING THE COURSE
OF WEDNESDAY...WITH MOST AREAS EVENTUALLY SEEING SUSTAINED WINDS OF
20-30 MPH WITH GUSTS TO AS HIGH AS 35-40 MPH. THE STRONGEST WINDS
WILL AGAIN BE IN THE TYPICALLY FAVORED DOWNSLOPE FLOW AREAS AND
ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN...WHERE A FEW GUSTS CLOSE TO LOW-END
ADVISORY CRITERIA CANNOT BE TOTALLY RULED OUT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
WEDNESDAY NIGHT A MODERATELY STRONG SURFACE LOW WILL MOVE FROM NEAR
MANITOULIN ISLAND TO THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF QUEBEC...WITH A
TRAILING SURFACE COLD FRONT CROSSING OUR REGION FROM WEST TO EAST
OVERNIGHT. THE BEST LARGE SCALE FORCING WILL SHIFT INTO THE EASTERN
LAKE ONTARIO REGION DURING THE EVENING...WITH DPVA AHEAD OF A STRONG
MID LEVEL TROUGH AND ORGANIZED LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE ON THE NOSE OF
A 50 KNOT LOW LEVEL JET. THE STEADIEST PRECIP SHOULD BE FOUND IN
ASSOCIATION WITH THIS FORCING DURING THE FIRST HALF OF THE NIGHT
ACROSS EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA...ALTHOUGH MORE INTERMITTENT
PRECIP WILL STILL BE FOUND ACROSS THE WEST AS WELL WITH THE PASSAGE
OF THE SURFACE COLD FRONT.

PRECIP TYPE WILL BE TRICKY ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN EAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO...WITH BOTH THE NAM AND GFS SUGGESTIVE OF COLD AIR DAMMING
HOLDING ON ACROSS THE ADIRONDACKS...AND POSSIBLY NOSING INTO LEWIS
COUNTY AT TIMES AS WELL. THIS MAY ALLOW FOR SOME WET SNOW TO BE THE
PREDOMINANT PRECIP TYPE AT LEAST FOR AWHILE WEDNESDAY EVENING ACROSS
THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF THE TUG HILL AND WESTERN FOOTHILLS OF THE
ADIRONDACKS WHERE A FEW INCHES OF SLUSH IS POSSIBLE. AFTER MIDNIGHT
A PUSH OF SOMEWHAT WARMER AIR JUST AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT SHOULD
CHANGE THIS OVER TO MAINLY RAIN. OUTSIDE OF THIS AREA...EXPECT
EVERYTHING TO BE IN THE FORM OF RAIN THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE
NIGHT WITH SOME WET SNOW MIXING IN LATE AS COLDER AIR FILTERS BACK
INTO THE REGION BEHIND THE COLD FRONT.

LATER WEDNESDAY NIGHT A MID LEVEL DRY SLOT WILL PUSH INTO WESTERN NY
AND BRING AN END TO MOST OF THE PRECIP BESIDES A STRAY SHOWER. THIS
DRY SLOT WILL REACH THE EASTERN LAKE ONTARIO REGION THURSDAY MORNING
WITH A SIMILAR DROP OFF IN PRECIP.

ON THURSDAY DEEP WRAP AROUND MOISTURE WILL ARRIVE FROM WEST TO EAST
BEHIND THE MID LEVEL DRY SLOT AS THE SURFACE LOW CONTINUES EAST
ACROSS QUEBEC. THE MAIN MID LEVEL TROUGH WILL SWING ACROSS THE LOWER
LAKES WITH A PERIOD OF LARGE SCALE ASCENT. THE MOIST CYCLONIC
WESTERLY FLOW WILL ALSO SUPPORT UPSLOPE ENHANCEMENT ACROSS THE
HIGHER TERRAIN OF THE CHAUTAUQUA RIDGE AND ALSO EAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO. EXPECT THE MOST WIDESPREAD PRECIP TO BE FOUND IN THESE
UPSLOPE AREAS...ALTHOUGH MOST LOCATIONS WILL SEE AT LEAST SOME
INTERMITTENT PRECIP DURING THE DAY. PRECIP TYPE WILL BE MAINLY WET
SNOW ACROSS HIGHER TERRAIN...BUT SOME RAIN MAY STILL MIX IN AT LOWER
ELEVATIONS ESPECIALLY ACROSS CENTRAL NY WHERE TEMPS WILL STILL BE IN
THE UPPER 30S MUCH OF THE DAY. THE HIGHER TERRAIN MAY SEE A FEW
INCHES OF SLUSHY ACCUMULATION.

THE OTHER STORY WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL BE THE GUSTY WINDS. WEDNESDAY
EVENING SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL STILL BE MODERATE TO STRONG...WITH
NORTHWARD FACING SLOPES SOUTH OF THE NYS THRUWAY SEEING SOME GUSTS
NEAR 40 MPH. THE BLACK RIVER VALLEY AND NORTH SLOPE OF THE TUG HILL
WILL ALSO SEE SOME WIND GUSTS IN THE 40-45 MPH RANGE. IT STILL
APPEARS THESE GUSTS WILL STAY JUST BELOW ADVISORY CRITERIA.

BEHIND THE SURFACE COLD FRONT SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL INCREASE LATE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY...WITH THE STRONGEST WINDS IN THE
TYPICAL AREAS FROM THE LAKE ERIE SHORE ACROSS THE NIAGARA FRONTIER
TO ROCHESTER...AND ALSO NORTHEAST OF LAKE ONTARIO NEAR WATERTOWN.
COLD ADVECTION WILL ALLOW LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES TO STEEPEN WITH
STRONGER WINDS FROM ALOFT MIXING DOWN IN GUSTS. FOR NOW HAVE ALSO
KEPT THESE WIND GUSTS IN THE 40-45 MPH RANGE AND JUST BELOW ADVISORY
CRITERIA...BUT IF MODEL GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO TREND JUST A LITTLE
STRONGER AN ADVISORY MAY BE NEEDED IN THE AREAS OUTLINED ABOVE.

THURSDAY NIGHT THE SURFACE LOW CONTINUES TO PULL AWAY FROM THE
REGION. THIS WILL BRING A SLOW DECREASE IN PRECIP FROM WEST TO EAST
OVERNIGHT. BY 00Z BOUNDARY LAYER TEMPS SHOULD COOL SUFFICIENTLY TO
SUPPORT JUST SNOW AS THE PRECIP TYPE EVEN AT LOWER ELEVATIONS. MAY
SEE ANOTHER FEW INCHES OF ACCUMULATION ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN
EAST OF LAKE ONTARIO BEFORE TAPERING OFF LATE. WINDS WILL ALSO
SLOWLY DIMINISH OVERNIGHT AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT RELAXES ACROSS
THE AREA.

ON FRIDAY WEAK SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE LOWER
LAKES WITH A RETURN TO DRY WEATHER. TEMPERATURES WILL STILL RUN
BELOW AVERAGE ALTHOUGH ONLY SLIGHTLY...WITH HIGHS AROUND 40 ACROSS
LOWER ELEVATIONS AND MID 30S ACROSS HIGHER TERRAIN AND EAST OF LAKE
ONTARIO.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY THE NEXT SYSTEM OF INTEREST WILL CROSS THE
REGION. THE GFS AND ECMWF ARE FINALLY COMING INTO A LITTLE BETTER
AGREEMENT WITH THIS SYSTEM...AS THE 12Z ECMWF HAS TRENDED TOWARDS
THE GFS WITH A FARTHER NORTH SOLUTION. EXPECT A SURFACE LOW TO TRACK
JUST NORTH OF OUR REGION LATE FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY. WARM
ADVECTION AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM WILL ALLOW PRECIP CHANCES TO INCREASE
FROM WEST TO EAST LATER FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING. THE
FARTHER NORTH LOW TRACK WILL LEAD TO A VARIETY OF PRECIP...WITH SOME
WET SNOW AT THE START PROBABLY CHANGING OVER TO MAINLY RAIN BEFORE
GOING BACK TO SNOW SHOWERS LATER SATURDAY. GIVEN THE INHERENT
UNCERTAINTIES REGARDING TIMING AND EXACT THERMAL PROFILES HAVE JUST
CALLED IT A GENERIC RAIN/SNOW FOR NOW.

BEHIND THIS SYSTEM A DEEP LONGWAVE TROUGH WILL ONCE AGAIN BECOME
ESTABLISHED ACROSS THE EASTERN HALF OF THE NATION WITH THE START OF
WHAT WILL LIKELY BE AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF WELL BELOW AVERAGE
TEMPERATURES. HIGHS ON SUNDAY AND MONDAY WILL BE IN THE 20S...WITH
LOWS IN THE SINGLE NUMBERS OR LOWER TEENS SUNDAY NIGHT. THESE
NUMBERS ARE ABOUT 20 DEGREES BELOW AVERAGE. THE NORTHWEST FLOW OF
COLD AIR WILL PRODUCE AT LEAST A FEW LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS
SOUTHEAST OF LAKE ONTARIO...WITH DIURNAL INSTABILITY SNOW SHOWERS
POSSIBLE JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE DURING THE AFTERNOON. ALL OF THIS
APPEARS LIGHT GIVEN THE DRY AIRMASS.

THE LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS WILL SLOWLY END LATER MONDAY AND MONDAY
NIGHT AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE LOWER LAKES. ANOTHER SYSTEM
WILL MOVE INTO THE OHIO VALLEY LATER MONDAY NIGHT AND TOWARDS OUR
REGION ON TUESDAY...AS SHOWN BY BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF. HAVE
INTRODUCED A CHANCE OF SNOW FOR THE NEW DAY 7 FORECAST.

LOOKING A LITTLE FURTHER AHEAD...BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF SUPPORT THE
LONGWAVE TROUGH REMAINING ENTRENCHED FROM THE NORTHERN PLAINS
THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES AND NORTHEAST...WHERE IT HAS BEEN MOST OF
THE TIME SINCE LAST FALL. THIS PATTERN REMAINS IN PLACE THROUGH AT
LEAST THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. AFTER THAT...THE ECMWF WOULD SUGGEST
IT REMAINING IN PLACE FOR QUITE SOME TIME TO COME...WHILE THE GFS
AND GEFS ENSEMBLE MEAN SUPPORTS SOME BREAK DOWN OF THE PATTERN WITH
A MORE ZONAL FLOW BECOMING ESTABLISHED. SUCH A PERSISTENT LONGWAVE
TROUGH HAS A TENDENCY TO BE VERY DIFFICULT TO BREAK...AND IF THE
ECMWF PATTERN VERIFIES WE MAY STAY VERY COLD RIGHT THROUGH THE END
OF MARCH.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE ANCHORED ACROSS QUEBEC AND NEW ENGLAND WILL SLOWLY
DRIFT EASTWARD TONIGHT...ALLOWING LOW PRESSURE OVER THE MISSOURI
VALLEY TO LIFT NORTHEASTWARD TO NEAR CHICAGO BY WEDNESDAY MORNING...
THEN ON TO LAKE HURON BY WEDNESDAY EVENING.

INCREASING WARM AIR ADVECTION IN ADVANCE OF THE APPROACHING LOW WILL
BRING INCREASING MID LEVEL CLOUDS TO THE REGION TONIGHT AND
WEDNESDAY. AS THE LOW DRAWS CLOSER...EXPECT A CHANCE OF SOME LIGHT
RAIN SHOWERS TO ARRIVE WEDNESDAY MORNING...WITH SOMEWHAT MORE
WIDESPREAD RAIN SHOWERS THEN DEVELOPING WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...WHICH
COULD BE MIXED WITH A LITTLE WET SNOW ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY AT
THE ONSET. THIS STATED...THE COMBINATION OF AN INCREASING SOUTHERLY
TO SOUTHEASTERLY DOWNSLOPE FLOW AND THE RELATIVELY LIGHT NATURE OF
THE PRECIP SHOULD RESULT IN GENERAL VFR CONDITIONS PERSISTING
THROUGH MOST IF NOT ALL OF WEDNESDAY.

SPEAKING OF THE DOWNSLOPE FLOW...AS THE LOW APPROACHES AND THE
PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS...SURFACE WINDS WILL BECOME MORE
SOUTHERLY AND INCREASE LATER TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...WITH MOST AREAS
SEEING SUSTAINED WINDS OF 20-25 KTS AND GUSTS TO 30-35 KNOTS OR SO
DEVELOPING BY MID TO LATE WEDNESDAY MORNING. WHILE WINDS ALOFT WILL
ALSO BE INCREASING AT THE SAME TIME AS A LOW LEVEL JET DEVELOPS
OVERHEAD...AT THIS POINT EXPECT THAT SURFACE WINDS WILL ALSO
INCREASE ENOUGH TO PREVENT SIGNIFICANT LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR CONCERNS.

OUTLOOK...
WEDNESDAY NIGHT...VFR/MVFR WITH RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS.
THURSDAY...MVFR WITH RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS LIKELY.
FRIDAY...A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY
EARLY...OTHERWISE VFR/IMPROVING TO VFR.
SATURDAY...MVFR WITH SOME RAIN AND SNOW LIKELY.
SUNDAY...VFR/MVFR WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS.

&&

.MARINE...
A MODEST EASTERLY FLOW ACROSS THE LOWER LAKES THIS EVENING WILL VEER
TO SOUTHEASTERLY/SOUTHERLY AND INCREASE TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY AS LOW
PRESSURE LIFTS NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE CENTRAL GREAT LAKES...WITH
WINDS REACHING ADVISORY LEVELS ON LAKE ONTARIO DURING WEDNESDAY.

A COLD FRONT TRAILING FROM THIS LOW WILL THEN CROSS THE LOWER LAKES
REGION WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND USHER IN A PERIOD OF STRONGER ADVISORY-
LEVEL SOUTHWESTERLIES AND WESTERLIES THAT WILL LAST THROUGH
THURSDAY...WHEN WINDS COULD POTENTIALLY APPROACH OR REACH LOW-END
GALE FORCE.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
WARMER TEMPERATURES THROUGH WEDNESDAY WILL BRING ANOTHER ROUND OF
SNOWMELT TO THE AREA...ALTHOUGH THE SNOWPACK WAS GREATLY REDUCED
BY THE LAST WARMUP. SOME RAIN WILL ALSO FALL ON WEDNESDAY...
THOUGH BASIN AVERAGE RAINFALL AMOUNTS LOOK TO ONLY RANGE FROM A
TENTH TO MAYBE A THIRD OF AN INCH AT THIS TIME. SUCH LIGHT RAIN
AMOUNTS WOULD NORMALLY NOT BE AN ISSUE...BUT AFTER THE COLD WINTER
SOME AREA RIVERS AND CREEKS CONTINUE TO HAVE ICE COVER.

SOME ICE JAMS ARE ALREADY IN PLACE...AND THE POTENTIAL REMAINS FOR
NEW ICE JAMS TO FORM AS ICE BEGINS TO MOVE WITH WARMER TEMPERATURES.
ON THE OTHER HAND...THE LOW RAINFALL AMOUNTS AND LOWER AMOUNTS OF
SNOW LEFT TO MELT MAY HELP MITIGATE FLOOD ISSUES TO SOME EXTENT.
WITH THIS IN MIND...WE HAVE CONTINUED TO HOLD OFF ON A FLOOD WATCH
FOR NOW...ALTHOUGH SOME ICE JAM ISSUES CANNOT BE RULED OUT ON
WEDNESDAY IN A FEW AREAS.

&&
