AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BINGHAMTON NY
200 AM EDT SAT APR 4 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A SYSTEM WILL FINISH MOVING THROUGH THE REGION DURING THE
REMAINDER OF NIGHT. AS COLDER AIR PUSHES BACK INTO THE REGION
FROM THE NORTHWEST...RAIN WILL CHANGE TO WET SNOW OVER SOME
PORTIONS OF CENTRAL NEW YORK. THIS WEEKEND WILL FEATURE CHILLIER
TEMPERATURES...ALONG WITH PERIODS OF LIGHT RAIN AND
SNOW...ESPECIALLY ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN NEW YORK STATE.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/...
945 PM UPDATE...SFC LOW PRES CURRENTLY OVER CENTRAL PA WILL LIFT
NORTHEAST ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND OVERNIGHT AND INTENSIFY
RAPIDLY. LIGHT RAIN HAS SPREAD ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION EARLY
THIS EVENING ALTHOUGH SO FAR IT HAS BEEN LIGHT. MORE SIGNIFICANT
RAINFALL IS EXPECTED THROUGH MIDNIGHT THEN CAA ON BACK SIDE OF SFC
LOW WILL CHANGE RAIN TO SNOW LATE TONIGHT FORM NORTH TO SOUTH.
CURRENT FORECAST IN EXCELLENT SHAPE JUST MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO
P-TYPE AND SNOWFALL. ACCUMS ACROSS CENTRAL NY WILL RANGE FROM A
TRACE TO AROUND 2 INCHES. THE HIGHER AMOUNTS ARE EXPECTED IN THE
HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF NRN/SRN ONEIDA, NORTHERN STEUBEN, SOUTHERN
ONONDAGA, CORTLAND, NORTHERN CHENANGO, AND NORTHERN OTSEGO COUNTY.

250 PM EDT UPDATE... THE SURFACE COLD FRONT MADE IT AS FAR SOUTH
AS NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA. IT IS CURRENTLY LIES AS FAR EAST AS
WESTERN MASS AND EXTENDS SOUTHWESTWARD ACROSS CENTRAL PA... AND
ACROSS THE MIDWEST. THIS FRONT WILL REMAIN STATIONARY OVER THIS
LOCATION THROUGH MIDNIGHT TONIGHT UNTIL THE NEXT SHORTWAVE TROUGH
MOVING TOWARDS THE NORTHEAST KICKS IT TO THE EAST. THIS BOUNDARY
MAY HELP GENERATE SCATTERED SHOWERS THROUGH THE MID AFTERNOON
BEFORE THE NEXT WAVE OF WIDESPREAD SHOWERS MOVES OVER NY AND PA.
DEWPOINTS BEHIND THE FRONT ARE FAIRLY HIGH... RANGING IN THE 40S.
DEW POINTS AHEAD OF THE FRONT HAVE RISEN THE IN THE UPPR 50S.
TEMPS ARE NOW IN THE MID 50S TO LOW 60S. EXPECT TEMPS TO RISE A
COUPLE MORE DEGREES THIS AFTERNOON.

AS MENTIONED ABOVE... A SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL MOVE ACROSS THE REGION
TODAY/TONIGHT... AND WILL PUSH A SFC LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM NORTH ALONG THE
STATIONARY FRONT AND BRING WIDESPREAD RAIN SHOWERS TO CENTRAL NY AND
NORTHEAST PA. PWAT VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO RISE TO AROUND .7 INCHES
OVER CENTRAL NY TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE AN INCH. THIS WILL ALLOW THE
ENVIRONMENT TO PRODUCE A STEADY RAINFALL EVENT AS THE LOW PRESSURE
CENTER PASSES JUST SLIGHTLY TO THE SE OF OUR CWA. ACCUMULATIONS UP
TO AROUND HALF AN INCH OF RAIN CAN BE EXPECTED OVERNIGHT.

MORE ORGANIZED SHOWERS WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION AFTER 00Z
TONIGHT... FIRST OVER STEUBEN COUNTY... THEN MOVE INTO THE FINGER LAKES
REGION BEFORE MOVING EASTWARD OVER THE REMAINING PORTIONS OF THE
CWA. RAIN WILL TRANSITION OVER TO SNOW AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT... AS
THE COLDER AIR FINALLY PUSHES ITS WAY INTO THE REGION. WE ARE
EXPECTING LESS SNOW ACCUMULATIONS NOW THAN PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT. A
TRACE UP TO 2 INCHES WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER THE REGION... WITH THE
HIGHEST AMOUNTS EXPECTED OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN. TEMPERATURES WILL
FALL DOWN TO THE LOW TO MID 30S BY SUNRISE ON SAT.

FOR INFORMATION ON POSSIBLE FLOODING... PLEASE READ THE
HYDROLOGY SECTION BELOW. THIS SECTION WILL BE UPDATED BY 5PM EDT
TODAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH MONDAY/...
SHOWERS MAY STILL PREVAIL OVER CENTRAL NEW YORK EARLY SATURDAY
MORNING AS THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BE LIFTING NORTH ALONG THE
EAST COAST. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE REGION SAT
MORNING IN THE WAKE OF THE SFC LOW AND HELP SUPPRESS LINGER ACTIVITY
TO SPRINKLES/FLURRIES. PRECIP IS EXPECTED TO DISSIPATE BY EARLY SAT
EVENING. TEMPS WILL SLIGHTLY MODERATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON...
RESULTING IN THE MAXIMUM TEMPS ONLY REACHING THE 30S AND LOW 40S.

A MID LVL SHORTWAVE ATTENDANT WITH A SFC BOUNDARY WILL QUICKLY MOVE
INTO THE REGION EARLY SUNDAY RESULTING IN ANOTHER CHANCE FOR RAIN
AND SNOW SHOWERS OVER NY AND PA. THE SFC BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO
SETTLE JUST NORTH OF THE NY/PA BORDER EARLY DURING THE DAY... AND
LIFT NORTH AS THE AFTERNOON/EVENING HOURS PROGRESS. THIS ACTIVITY
WILL START OUT AS SNOW... AND BECOME A RAIN/SNOW MIX AS TEMPS
MODERATE DURING THE AFTERNOON. THE CHANCE FOR RAIN/SNOW WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON AS WE REMAIN IN AN ACTIVE WEATHER
PATTERN AND THE MENTION BOUNDARY REMAINS PUT.

TEMPS WILL CONTINUE TO MODERATE ON SUNDAY WITH TEMPS REACHING THE
UPPR 30S OVER THE NORTH... AND LOW 50S OVER THE SOUTH. TEMPS WILL
RETURN TO MORE OF A SEASONAL AVG BY MONDAY.

FOR INFORMATION ON POSSIBLE FLOODING... PLEASE READ THE
HYDROLOGY SECTION BELOW. THIS SECTION WILL BE UPDATED BY 5PM
EDT TODAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
2 PM UPDATE...

AN UNSETTLED, COOL, AND WET EXTENDED FORECAST. FOLLOWED WPC
GUIDANCE. TEMPERATURES START OUT COOLER THAN NORMAL THEN BY FRIDAY
ARE SLIGHTLY WARMER THAN NORMAL. MULTIPLE STORMS MOVE THROUGH WITH
MOST OF THE PRECIPITATION RAIN. UPPER LEVEL HEIGHTS RISE THROUGH
THE WEEK WITH AN INCREASINGLY MOIST FLOW. BETTER CHANCE OF A MIX
OR JUST SNOW AT NIGHT EARLY IN THE PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
06Z UPDATE...
COLD FRONT HAS JUST SWEPT THROUGH THE TERMINALS...WITH GUSTY
NORTHWESTERLY WINDS IN ITS WAKE. RAIN SHOWERS AND FUEL ALT MVFR TO
IFR CIGS WILL STILL OCCUR FOR A TIME...BEFORE DRYING AIR MASS
LIFTS CIGS TO HIGHER END MVFR TOWARDS DAWN...AND SCT OR VFR BKN
LATE MORNING ONWARD. SNOW IS STILL EXPECTED TO BRIEFLY MIX IN
BEFORE RAIN ENDS KBGM...BUT IS LOOKING MORE DOUBTFUL NOW FOR OTHER
TERMINALS BECAUSE PRECIP EXITS BY THE TIME TEMPERATURES DO GET
COLD ENOUGH AT LOWER ELEVATIONS. STILL BRIEFLY POSSIBLE BUT NOT
LIKELY AND THUS ONLY -SHRA IN TAFS /EXCEPT FOR THAT -SHSNRA TEMPO
GROUP KBGM/. ZESTY NW TO WNW WINDS WILL CONTINUE WITH GUSTS 25-35
KTS THROUGH DAYTIME HOURS...BEFORE BACKING TO WSW 10 KTS OR LESS
THIS EVENING.

.OUTLOOK...

SAT NGT...MAINLY VFR.

SUN-WED...BUSY PATTERN WITH INTERMITTENT RESTRICTIONS FROM -SHRA
AS MULTIPLE WAVES MOVE THROUGH THE REGION. COULD BE MIXED WITH
-SHSN AT TIMES MAINLY KSYR-KRME.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
445 PM UPDATE...
RIVERS AND STREAMS WILL CONTINUE TO RISE SEVERAL FEET THROUGH THE
WEEKEND IN RESPONSE TO SIGNIFICANT SNOWMELT RUNOFF AND AROUND 1/2
TO 3/4 INCHES OF RAIN TONIGHT. COLDER TEMPERATURES BY SUNDAY WILL
RESULT IN LESS RUNOFF AND ALLOW RIVER LEVELS TO BEGIN DROPPING EARLY
NEXT WEEK.

RIVERS IN THE UPPER SUSQUEHANNA...CHENANGO...TIOUGHNIOGA AND WEST
BRANCH DELAWARE BASINS WILL BE THE MOST SENSITIVE TO THE MELTING SNOW
AND RAINFALL...WITH LEVELS FORECAST TO CREST BETWEEN 3/4 AND
BANKFULL. THERE IS A CHANCE THAT WATER IN A FEW OF THESE AREAS
COULD REACH MINOR FLOOD STAGE AND SPILL INTO THE NATURAL FLOOD
PLAIN OUTSIDE THE RIVER BANK. NO SIGNIFICANT FLOODING IMPACTS ARE
EXPECTED IF THIS OCCURS. IN OTHER BASINS...RIVERS SHOULD CREST
BETWEEN ABOUT 1/2 TO 3/4 BANKFULL.
