AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
340 PM EDT TUE MAY 27 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A BACK DOOR COLD FRONT CROSSES THE REGION TONIGHT...STALLING JUST
TO THE SOUTH THROUGH WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE
NORTH ON THURSDAY. A COLD FRONT CROSSES THE TRI-STATE FRIDAY INTO
FRIDAY NIGHT...FOLLOWED BY HIGH PRESSURE FOR THE UPCOMING WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
REGION REMAINS UNDER AN ACTIVE NW UPPER FLOW...WITH A SHORTWAVE
TROUGH SINKING SE THROUGH SOUTHERN QUEBEC. AT THE SURFACE BACKDOOR
COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO SINK SW OF THE REGION BY MIDNIGHT.

NUMEROUS SHRA WITH SCT THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED AHEAD OF APPROACHING
BACKDOOR COLD FRONT THROUGH THE EARLY EVENING.

WITH ON AVERAGE 1000-1500 J/KG OF CAPE WITH 25-35 KT OF 0-6KM SHEAR
THROUGH LATE THIS AFTERNOON COULD SEE A FEW ISOLD SUPERCELLS AS WELL
AS SOME MULTICELLULAR CLUSTERS WHICH ARE STRONG TO POSSIBLY SEVERE
INTO EARLY EVENING. MAIN FOCUS WILL BE ACROSS NE NJ/NYC METRO/LOWER
HUDSON VALLEY/SW CT...AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT AND SE SINKING BROAD
WEAK LOW. MAIN THREAT IS LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. SEE
HYDROLOGY SECTION FOR FLOODING THREAT DUE TO CONVECTION AND MOISTURE
POOLING AHEAD OF THE FRONT.

SEVERE THREAT WILL END WITH PASSAGE OF THE COLD FRONT ACROSS EASTERN
1/2 OF CWA SECTIONS BY 23Z...WHILE FARTHER WEST THE THREAT WILL
DIMINISH BY 02Z WITH LOSS OF DAYTIME INSTABILITY. BACKDOOR
COLD FRONT SHOULD PASS WEST OF ENTIRE AREA BY AROUND MIDNIGHT.

GUSTY EASTERLY FLOW DEVELOPS IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT WITH
SIGNIFICANTLY COOLER CANADIAN MARITIME ADVECTING INTO THE REGION. A
TRANSITION TO STRATUS AND SCATTERED LIGHT RAIN SHOWER ACTIVITY OR
EVEN JUST DRIZZLE EXPECTED OVERNIGHT IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT.
TEMPS SHOULD FALL TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE SEASONABLE LEVELS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
REGION REMAIN UNDER NW UPPER FLOW WITH SHORTWAVE TROUGH SLIDING
THROUGH NEW ENGLAND WED AND OFFSHORE WED NIGHT.

AT THE SURFACE...CANADIAN MARITIMES HIGH BUILDS SOUTH INTO THE
REGION. THIS SETUP WILL CONTINUE TO ADVECT IN A COOL MARITIMES
AIRMASS INTO THE REGION ON A GUSTY NE FLOW...WITH HIGH TEMPS
RUNNING 5-10 DEGREES BELOW SEASONABLE.

INCREASING SUBSIDENCE UNDER THE HIGH SHOULD DRY LOW LEVELS OUT FROM
E TO W WITH ANY SHOWER/DRIZZLE ACTIVITY TAPERING OFF ACROSS MOST OF
THE REGION WED MORNING. FAR WESTERN AREAS COULD SEE LINGERING SPOTTY
LIGHT SHOWER/DRIZZLE ACTIVITY LINGERING INTO THE AFTERNOON WITH A
BIT MORE UPSLOPE/MOISTURE CONVERGENCE. A STRONG INVERSION SHOULD
KEEP A STRATUS DECK HOLDING STRONG THROUGH THE DAY...WITH MAYBE SOME
BREAKS LATE IN THE DAY ACROSS NE ZONES.

WITH THE CLOUD COVER AND A ONSHORE ENE-NE LOW LEVEL
FLOW...HIGHS WEDNESDAY WILL BE AROUND 20 DEGREES COOLER THAN THOSE
ON TODAY.

MODELS CONTINUE TO DRY OUT THE LOW LEVELS WED NIGHT WHICH SHOULD
ALLOW FOR PARTIAL CLEARING FROM E TO W. WITH THE REGION WELL
ENTRENCHED IN A CANADIAN MARITIME AIRMASS EXCEPT TEMPS TO RUN NEAR
TO SLIGHT BELOW SEASONABLE. A GUSTY NE FLOW WILL MAKE IT FEEL QUITE
CHILLY.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTH ON THURSDAY WITH DRY WEATHER.
SINCE AN ONSHORE FLOW WILL PERSIST AND PREVENT ANY SIGNIFICANT
WARMING THROUGH THE ENTIRE BOUNDARY LEVEL...HIGH TEMPS WILL AVERAGE
BELOW NORMALS.

A COLD FRONT APPROACHES WITH A CHANCE OF SHOWERS ACROSS THE NW ZONES
LATE THURSDAY NIGHT...THEN A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR
THE ENTIRE AREA DURING FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT AS THE COLD FRONT
MOVES THROUGH.

A CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT REMAINS FOR SATURDAY WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF A
SHORTWAVE ROTATING THROUGH. WILL THEREFORE KEEP IN A SLIGHT CHANCE
OF A SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING WITH
HIGHER INSTABILITY.

HIGH PRESSURE PROVIDES THE TRI-STATE AREA WITH DRY WEATHER ON
SUNDAY. MODELS THEN DIFFER ON MONDAY...BUT THE CONSENSUS SEEMS TO
LEAN TOWARDS THE GFS/CMC SOLUTION OF KEEPING HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE
AREA AND DELAYING A COLD FRONT PASSAGE UNTIL SOMETIME TUESDAY OR
TUESDAY NIGHT. WILL KEEP MONDAY DRY...AND THEN GO WITH A SLIGHT
CHANCE OF A SHOWER/TSTM ON TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT FOR NOW.

HIGH TEMPERATURES FROM FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY APPEAR NOT TO STRAY TOO
FAR FROM NORMALS. 850MB TEMPS THEN RISE QUICKLY BY LATE IN THE DAY
MONDAY...SO HAVE GONE ABOVE MOS GUIDANCE WITH HIGHS IN THE LOW-MID
80S. TUESDAY SHOULD ALSO FEATURE ABOVE-NORMAL TEMPERATURES.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE NORTH THIS EVENING AND MOVES SOUTH
ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT.

VFR THROUGH THE EVENING. SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON AND MOVE ACROSS THE REGION. SOME
OF THE THUNDERSTORMS MAY IMPACT THE TERMINALS BETWEEN 20Z-00Z WITH
CONDITIONS BRIEFLY LOWERING TO MVFR. A FEW STORMS AROUND NYC AND NW
OF NYC TERMINALS COULD PRODUCE STRONG GUSTY WINDS AND HEAVY
RAINFALL. SHOWERS WILL REMAIN SCATTERED INTO THE EVENING AND
OVERNIGHT HOURS.

WIND WILL BE FROM THE WEST-SOUTHWEST THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. SPEEDS
WILL BE 10 TO 15 KT. WINDS SHIFT BEHIND THE COLD FRONT LATE THIS
AFTERNOON FURTHER EAST...AND THIS EVENING ACROSS NYC METRO
TERMINALS. BEHIND THE FRONT...EXPECT WINDS TO BECOME MORE EAST-
NORTHEAST.

CIGS WILL FALL TO MVFR OR IFR CEILINGS BEHIND THE FRONT...MAINLY
AFTER 07Z.
