AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
341 PM EDT THU JUL 30 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT...FOLLOWED BY WEAK
HIGH PRESSURE MOVING ACROSS THE AREA ON FRIDAY...DEPARTING FRIDAY
NIGHT. A SERIES OF FRONTAL BOUNDARIES WILL IMPACT THE AREA OVER
THE WEEKEND AND INTO THE NEW WEEK. IN BETWEEN....WEAK HIGH
PRESSURE WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE AREA.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
COLD FRONT OVER CENTRAL NY/PA CONTINUES TO TRACK EAST. AHEAD OF
THE FRONT...SHOWERS/TSTMS HAVE DEVELOPED ALONG A PRE-FRONTAL
TROUGH AND ARE MOVING THROUGH THE REGION WITH HEAVY RAIN...GUSTY
WINDS...AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING.

WITH REGARDS TO THE HEAT ADVISORY FOR NYC...WILL KEEP IT IN EFFECT
AS SFC DEWPOINTS ARE IN THE MID 70S...AND WITH THE RAIN...EXPECT
SFC DEWPOINTS TO REMAIN HIGH. TEMPS SHOULD REBOUND SOMEWHAT IN
BETWEEN STORMS...AND IT WILL NOT TAKE MUCH TO REACH A HEAT INDEX
OF 95. HOWEVER...IF IT DOES NOT OCCUR PRIOR TO 6PM...IT MAY NOT
HAPPEN.

SHOWERS/TSTMS SHOULD WIND DOWN FROM WEST TO EAST THROUGH THIS
EVENING...WITH STORMS DEPARTING EASTERN AREAS AROUND MIDNIGHT.
COLD FRONT WILL NOT BE THROUGH UNTIL LATE...SO WITH ABUNDANT LOW-
LEVEL MOISTURE...WILL EXPECT PATCHY FOG TO DEVELOP AWAY FROM THE
CITY...WITH MOST FOG ACROSS EASTERN CT AND EASTERN LI.

THERE IS A HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS AT OCEAN BEACHES THROUGH THIS
EVENING.

LOWS TONIGHT WILL DROP INTO THE LOW TO MID 70S IN/AROUND NYC...AND
IN THE 60S ELSEWHERE.

WIDESPREAD PRECIP WITH EACH FRONT...AND IN BETWEEN...WEAK HIGH
PRES WILL RULE. A STRONGER COLD FRONT LOOKS TO IMPACT THE REGION
TOWARDS THE END OF NEXT WEEK WITH A BIT MORE SHOWER/TSTM ACTIVITY.

TEMPS DURING THE PERIOD WILL BE NEAR TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL
WITH HIGHS GENERALLY IN THE 80S TO AROUND 90. HUMIDITY LEVELS WILL
BE LOW OVER THE WEEKEND...AND THEN WILL START TO CREEP UP NEXT
WEEK AS WINDS SHIFT TO THE SOUTH AND SFC DEWPOINTS CREEP UP
THROUGH THE 60S.
