AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
224 PM EDT FRI AUG 1 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS JUST OFFSHORE THROUGH SATURDAY AS A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY OVER THE ATLANTIC COAST AND LOW PRESSURE TO THE SOUTH
WILL IMPACT THE AREA THROUGH THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK. HIGH
PRESSURE THEN BUILDS INTO THE REGION ON TUESDAY...WITH A COLD
FRONT PASSING THROUGH ON WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
18Z RADAR INDICATING PULSE SCT TSTMS ACROSS THE AREA IN
ASSOCIATION WITH A PASSING MID LVL SHORTWAVE COMBINING WITH
DEVELOPED SEA BREEZES ALONG BOTH THE LI AND CT COASTS. CONTINUING
WITH SCT POPS FOR THE AFTN. DECENT INSTABILITY BUT WEAK SHEAR
WOULD LEND TO THE TSTMS STAYING ON THE WEAKER SIDE. HOWEVER...FLOW
ALOFT WEAK AROUND 10 KTS...SO THE MAIN THREAT LOOKS TO BE PESKY
FLOODING WITH THE SLOW MOVING CELLS.

NAM/MET GUIDANCE HAD A BETTER HANDLE ON THE SW FLOW WARMING INTERIOR
AREAS SLIGHTLY MORE THAN COASTAL LOCATIONS. 13-14C 850 TEMPS LEND TO
HIGHS IN THE LOWER 80S WHICH MATCHED WELL WITH GUIDANCE AND LEANED
TOWARDS THE NAM NUMBERS. TEMPS ON TRACK FOR THE DAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SATURDAY/...
NEXT FOCUS OF RAIN WILL BE THE STATIONARY FRONT BACKING IN FROM THE
EAST WITH THE WESTERN ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE EXPANDING SLIGHTLY
WESTWARD. SOME MODEL DIFFERENCES EXIST ON THE TIMING OF WHEN THE
PRECIP WILL REACH THE AREA WITH THE NAM THE SLOWEST AND DRIEST FOR
THE DAY ON SATURDAY. HIGHEST PRECIP AMOUNTS WILL BE LONG ISLAND
AND SOUTHEAST CT WITH THE FRONT POSITIONED JUST TO THE SOUTH OF
THE ISLAND. WILL CONTINUE CHANCE POPS ELSEWHERE THOUGH AS SHOWERS
SHOULD STILL BE ABLE TO DEVELOP WITH UPPER JET AND MID LEVEL
SHORTWAVE ENHANCEMENT. AS WELL...DEEP MOISTURE STREAMING FROM THE
SOUTH WILL BE IN PLACE SO ANY SHOWERS WILL PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL.

VERY LOW CONFIDENCE ON ANY THUNDER FOR SATURDAY. LITTLE TO NO
INSTABILITY OR SHEAR...JUST MODERATE LIFT. EXPECT SHOWERS TO BE VERY
TROPICAL IN NATURE AND MAYBE AN ISOLATED LIGHTNING STRIKE OR TWO.
WIND PROFILES ALOFT ARE AGAIN LIGHT SO TRAINING OF CELLS IS LIKELY.

AS FOR TEMPERATURES...NAM 2M TEMPS MUCH WARMER THAN ALL GUIDANCE FOR
LOWS TONIGHT EVEN WITH SIMILAR CLOUD COVER FORECASTS. WENT WITH A
BLEND OF MAV/MOSGUIDE FOR LOWS FOR TEMPS IN THE LOWER TO MID 60S.

GUIDANCE FOR HIGHS ON SAT IS LOWER THAN PREVIOUS. POSSIBLY DUE TO
THE MODELS COMING INTO AGREEMENT FOR A RAINY DAY. WILL LOWER HIGHS A
FEW DEG FROM PREVIOUS FORECAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
A SHORTWAVE WEAKENS AT THE BASE OF A 500MB TROUGH AXIS AS IT
APPROACHES THE FORECAST AREA...EVENTUALLY PASSING THROUGH SUNDAY
NIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING. THIS WILL HELP SLOWLY NUDGE THE OFFSHORE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY FARTHER OUT TO SEA.

SOME SYNOPTIC LIFT WILL BE PRESENT THROUGH MONDAY WITH THE RIGHT
ENTRANCE OF AN UPPER JET STREAK IN THE VICINITY. LESS CERTAIN ARE
THE TIMING AND POSITION OF LOW-MID LEVEL SHORTWAVES THAT PASS
THROUGH/NEARBY THE CWA BEFORE THE TROUGH AXIS ALOFT PASSES THROUGH.
POPS THEREFORE CAPPED AT CHANCE...WHICH IS CLOSE TO WHAT A MODEL
BLEND WOULD PRODUCE. BEST OVERALL CHANCES OF RAINFALL WOULD BE
SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING AND CLOSER THE OFFSHORE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY. MONDAY COULD EVEN TURN OUT TO BE COMPLETELY
DRY...ESPECIALLY IF THE ECMWF IS CORRECT WITH THE TROUGH AXIS
PASSING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT AND A LACK OF LOW-MID LEVEL SHORTWAVES
TRAILING IT ON MONDAY. DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH CONFIDENCE TO REMOVE POPS
ALTOGETHER ON MONDAY...SO HAVE LEFT THE PREVIOUS FORECAST OF SLIGHT
CHC/CHC POPS.

WEAK HIGH PRESSURE PROBABLY KEEPS TUESDAY AND THURSDAY DRY...BUT A
COLD FRONT AND CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT COULD BRING AN ISOLATED
SHOWER/TSTM TO THE AREA ON WEDNESDAY.

CLOUDS AND AN ONSHORE FLOW WILL HOLD HIGH TEMPERATURES ON MONDAY
BELOW NORMAL...HIGHS OTHERWISE NEAR NORMAL FOR THE REST OF THE LONG
TERM FORECAST.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ALONG THE SEABREEZE FRONT
THIS AFT...PRIMARILY OUTSIDE THE NY METROPLEX. THE MAIN AREA ALONG
THE NJ COAST IS WEAKENING WITH SECONDARY AREAS TO THE NORTH AND
WEST. OVERALL...EXPECT A GENERAL DECREASE IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY
THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS WITH MOST OF THE ACTIVITY REMAINING
ACROSS THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY AND NE NJ.

S WINDS WILL PREVAIL AROUND 10 KT WITH SOME VARIABILITY IN
DIRECTION BY 20 TO 30 DEGREES. WINDS WILL GRADUALLY BACK AROUND
LATE TONIGHT TO THE E/NE AS A FRONTAL WAVE APPROACHES FROM THE
SOUTH.

A PERIOD OF MVFR CIGS/VSBYS WITH MAINLY LIGHT RAIN IS FORECAST
SAT MORNING/AFT.

WITH A WEAK PRESSURE GRADIENT OVER THE WATERS...SUB-SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED ON THE WATERS THROUGH TUESDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
BRIEF HEAVY DOWNPOURS POSSIBLE IN SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
THIS AFTN. LOCALIZED URBAN/POOR DRAINING FLOODING IS POSSIBLE DUE
TO SLOW MOVEMENT.

A SIMILAR SET UP EXISTS FOR THE WEEKEND INTO MONDAY WITH SHOWERS
MORE NUMEROUS IN COVERAGE ACROSS THE AREA AND SLOW MOVEMENT OF
CELLS. ALTHOUGH THUNDERSTORMS ARE UNLIKELY...THE MOIST AIRMASS WILL
PRODUCE MODERATE TO HEAVY DOWNPOURS. THIS COULD ONCE AGAIN RESULT
MAINLY IN URBAN/POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING.
