AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
405 PM EDT SAT AUG 15 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL CROSS THE REGION THIS EVENING...
BRINGING THE THREAT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. HIGH PRESSURE
WILL THEN BUILD IN AT ALL LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE TO BRING
INCREASINGLY WARM AND HUMID WEATHER TO CLOSE OUT THE WEEKEND AND
START THE NEXT WORK WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
UPPER ENERGY OVER LAKE ONTARIO MAKING SLOW STEADY PROGRESS EAST
AND SOUTH AND THERE IS A GOOD CONSENSUS FROM SOURCES OF GUIDANCE
THAT IT TRACKS THROUGH CENTRAL AND EASTERN NY THIS EVENING AND NEW
ENGLAND LATER TONIGHT AND TOMORROW MORNING. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED OVER OUR AREA AND ARE TRACKING AHEAD
OF THE UPPER ENERGY WITHING BROAD WEAK LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE
ASSOCIATED WITH A LOW LEVEL WIND SHIFT.

SOME OF THE STORMS HAVE BEEN STRONG WITH SOME GUSTY WINDS AND
SMALL HAIL...AND WILL KEEP AN EYE FOR ANY STORM THAT COULD VERY
BRIEFLY PULSE UP TO MARGINAL SEVERE LEVELS INTO THIS EVENING.
LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WITH STANDING WATER IN POOR DRAINAGE AND URBAN
AREAS IS ALSO POSSIBLE INTO THIS EVENING. THE CONVECTION SHOULD
DISSIPATE LATER THIS EVENING AND INTO THE EARLY MORNING
HOURS...THEN CONVECTIVE DEBRIS CLOUD COVER WILL GRADUALLY DECREASE
IN COVERAGE.

LIGHT WINDS AND LEFTOVER LOW LEVEL MOISTURE COULD PROMOTE SOME
PATCHY DENSE FOG IN SOME AREAS TOWARD SUNRISE. LOWS IN THE
60S...SOME MID TO UPPER 50S SOUTHERN ADIRONDACKS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY/...
LIGHT WEST FLOW THROUGH THE BOUNDARY LAYER SETS UP OVER THE
REGION AND SOME DRYING AT MID AND UPPER LEVELS SHOULD CONTRIBUTE
TO CAPPING THAT SHOULD MINIMIZE ANY DEVELOPMENT OF ISOLATED
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. HOWEVER...WITH THE HEAT AND
HUMIDITY...CANNOT RULE OUT AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM IN
AREAS OF TERRAIN BUT COVERAGE LOOKS TO BE TOO SMALL TO CARRY ANY
RAIN CHANCES TOMORROW THROUGH MONDAY.

LINGERING WEAK UPPER ENERGY JUST SOUTH AND EAST OF OUR REGION
COULD ALSO SUPPORT ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS SUNDAY AND MONDAY
AFTERNOONS. UPPER RIDGING ALSO GRADUALLY BUILDS INTO THE REGION
SUGGESTING MID TO UPPER LEVEL CAPPING TO MINIMIZE THE POTENTIAL
FOR CONVECTION...BUT THE FLAT NATURE TO THE UPPER RIDGING AND
NEARBY WEAK UPPER ENERGY TO THE SOUTHEAST MEANS WE WILL JUST HAVE
TO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS.

SO...QUITE A BIT OF SUNSHINE SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY WITH LIGHT
WINDS BUT AGAIN...LIGHT WEST TO SOUTHWEST FLOW THROUGH THE
BOUNDARY LAYER...AND SURFACE WINDS TRENDING BACK TO SOUTH BY
TUESDAY. HIGHS SUNDAY IN THE MID 80S TO LOWER 90S. HIGHS MONDAY
AROUND 90 TO MID 90S...UPPER 80S NORTHERN AREAS.

ON TUESDAY SOME MORE DEFINITIVE UPPER ENERGY BEGINS TO APPROACH
FROM THE WEST AND SHOULD SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...ESPECIALLY IN THE AFTERNOON IF A
THERMALLY INDUCED SURFACE TROUGH DEVELOPS. STILL...WITH QUITE A
BIT OF SUN AND HUMIDITY...HIGHS IN THE UPPER 80S TO LOWER
90S...SOME LOWER TO MID 80S IN HIGHER TERRAIN.

TEMPERATURES IN THE 90S MONDAY AND TUESDAY ALONG WITH THE HUMIDITY
WILL RESULT IN HEAT INDICES APPROACHING 100 IN SOME AREAS OF THE
HUDSON VALLEY ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE CAPITAL DISTRICT...RIGHT DOWN
THROUGH THE MID HUDSON VALLEY. NO HEADLINES AT THIS TIME BUT
AGAIN...WILL KNOW MORE AS WE GET CLOSER TO MONDAY AND TUESDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
MUCH OF THE LONG TERM PERIOD WILL FEATURE ABOVE TO WELL ABOVE
NORMAL TEMPERATURES...ALONG WITH HUMID CONDITIONS...AS A
PERSISTENT UPPER LEVEL RIDGE AND SURFACE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST FLOW
REMAINS OVER THE REGION. HIGHEST POPS ARE GENERALLY IN THE AFTERNOON
AS DURING MOST OF THE PERIOD DYNAMICS/FORCING FOR SHOWERS WILL BE
WEAK AND INSTABILITY MAINLY A FUNCTION OF SUNSHINE.

A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT SHOULD SUPPRESS MOST SHOWER ACTIVITY
ON WEDNESDAY. BY THURSDAY A WEAK SYSTEM MOVING FROM WEST TO EAST
THROUGH SOUTHERN CANADA MAY HELP TO INCREASE SHOWER
ACTIVITY...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA.
BY FRIDAY LOW PRESSURE MOVING INTO THE GREAT LAKES MAY DRAG A FRONT
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA...AGAIN MAKING FOR AN INCREASED THREAT FOR
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. THE FRONT LOOKS TO WEAKEN AND SLOW DOWN
SO LOW CHANCE POPS CONTINUE INTO SATURDAY.

FOR TEMPS...HIGHS WEDNESDAY WILL BE IN THE 80S TO AROUND 90...WITH
SOME UPPER 70S OVER THE ADIRONDACKS. HIGHS THURSDAY AND FRIDAY WILL
BE IN THE UPPER 70S TO MID 80S. HIGHS SATURDAY ARE FORECAST FROM THE
MID 70S TO THE LOW 80S. LOWS WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY WILL
GENERALLY BE IN THE 60S WITH 50S ONLY IN THE COOLER UPLAND VALLEYS.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
SHWRS/TSTMS WILL AFFECT THE REGION THIS AFTN AND EARLY EVENING. THE
TIMING OF ANY SHWRS/TSTMS IS DIFFICULT AT THIS TIME...EXCEPT AT
KALB WHERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE WITHIN A MILE OR TWO OF THE AIRFIELD.
FOR OTHER TAF SITES...VCSH.

ANY SHOWERS/TSTMS WILL END EARLY THIS EVENING WITH GENERALLY VFR
CONDITIONS CONTINUING AT THE TAF SITES UNTIL CLOSE TO MIDNIGHT.
AT KGFL/KPSF/KPOU EXPECT IFR FOG TO DEVELOP AFTER MIDNIGHT... AND
MVFR AT KALB. THE FOG/STRATUS IS ESPECIALLY LIKELY TO OCCUR AT
THOSE SITES WHERE ANY SHWRS/TSTMS OCCUR THIS AFTN/EVE.

WINDS WILL BECOME LIGHT AND VARIABLE OR CALM AGAIN TONIGHT. WINDS
WILL REMAIN LIGHT AND VARIABLE ON SUNDAY.

WINDS WILL BE STRONGER...AND VARIABLE IN DIRECTION IN AND NEAR ANY
THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE TAF PERIOD.

OUTLOOK...

SUNDAY NIGHT: NO OPERATIONAL IMPACT. NO SIG WX.
MONDAY: NO OPERATIONAL IMPACT. NO SIG WX.
MONDAY NIGHT: LOW OPERATIONAL IMPACT. NO SIG WX.
TUESDAY: MODERATE OPERATIONAL IMPACT. SCATTERED SHRA...TSRA.
TUESDAY NIGHT: LOW OPERATIONAL IMPACT. NO SIG WX.
WEDNESDAY: MODERATE OPERATIONAL IMPACT. CHANCE OF SHRA...TSRA.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: LOW OPERATIONAL IMPACT. NO SIG WX.
THURSDAY: MODERATE OPERATIONAL IMPACT. CHANCE OF SHRA...TSRA.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL CROSS THE REGION THIS EVENING...
BRINGING THE THREAT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. HIGH PRESSURE
WILL THEN BUILD IN AT ALL LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE TO BRING
INCREASINGLY WARM AND HUMID WEATHER TO CLOSE OUT THE WEEKEND AND
START THE NEXT WORK WEEK.

MINIMUM RH VALUES WILL RANGE BETWEEN 40 AND 50 PERCENT SUNDAY
AFTERNOON AND MONDAY AFTERNOON. TONIGHT AND SUNDAY NIGHT...
RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES WILL RANGE BETWEEN 75 AND 100 PERCENT
WITH SOME DEW AND PATCHY FOG IN MANY AREAS.

WINDS WILL BE SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEST AT 15 MPH OR LESS THROUGH
MONDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
NO WIDESPREAD HYDRO PROBLEMS ARE EXPECTED THE NEXT 5 DAYS IN THE
ALY HYDRO SERVICE AREA.

A WEAK WIND SHIFT LINE IS CAUSING WIDELY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS
THIS EVENING. SINCE THEY WILL BE SLOW MOVING THEY COULD DEPOSIT
EXTREMELY LOCALIZED RAINFALL IN A SMALL AREAS...ENOUGH TO PRODUCE
PONDING OF WATER IN POOR DRAINAGE AREAS.

AVERAGE RAINFALL BASIN WILL BE LESS THAN A QUARTER OF AN INCH SO NO
AFFECT IS EXPECTED ON LARGER STREAMS AND RIVERS.

DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY ALTHOUGH AN AFTERNOON
THUNDERSTORM CANNOT BE ENTIRELY RULED OUT. IT WILL TURN QUITE HOT.

THE NEXT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE ON TUESDAY WITH
THE PASSAGE OF A WEAK COLD FRONT.
