AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BINGHAMTON NY
1236 PM EST MON JAN 11 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
A WESTERLY FLOW OF COLD AND MOIST AIR WILL BRING SCATTERED SNOW
SHOWERS AND FLURRIES TO A LARGE PART OF CENTRAL NEW YORK AND
NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA TODAY. A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL TRACK
ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES TONIGHT TO OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST BY
TUESDAY NIGHT. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING A WIDESPREAD INCH OR TWO OF
SNOW TO THE REGION TUESDAY. AFTER THIS SYSTEM PASSES BY, HEAVY
LAKE EFFECT SNOW WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE THRUWAY CORRIDOR FROM
SYRACUSE TO UTICA AND ROME TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. ELSEWHERE
EXPECT SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS AND FLURRIES WITH ONLY LIGHT
ACCUMULATIONS THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
DROPPED WIND ADVISORY AS WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO WEAKEN. SYR STILL
GUSTING WITH A PEAK WIND AT 519 AM OF 44 KNOTS. REST OF STATIONS
AROUND NORTH CENTRAL NY HAVE SEEN WINDS WEAKEN CONSIDERABLY WITH
PEAK WINDS BARELY 30 KNOTS. MADE SOME MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO POPS
ESPECIALLY FOR WESTERN STEUBEN CO WHERE I COULD SEE A FEW INCHES
OF SNOW TODAY. OTHERWISE NO MAJOR CHANGES TO PREVIOUS FORECAST.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION BELOW...
RADAR IMAGERY SHOWS MAIN LAKE EFFECT SNOW BAND NORTH OF ONEIDA
COUNTY. THE KTYX VAD WIND PROFILE IS SHOWING A 260 DEGREE FLOW
FROM 3 TO 8 THOUSAND FEET ABOVE SEA LEVEL AND WAS DIRECTING THE
LAKE EFFECT SNOWS TO OUR NORTH. THE 00Z RGEM, 00Z NAM12,
WRF_ARW,AND HRRR WERE ALL KEEPING THIS BAND TO OUR NORTH THROUGH
THE DAY. THE ONLY HI RES MODEL THAT WAS BRINGING THE BAND INTO
NORTHERN ONEIDA COUNTY TODAY WAS THE WRF_NMM. THE MODELS HAVE
TRENDED NORTH WITH THE BAND FROM YESTERDAY AND CURRENT RADAR
INDICATES THAT THIS WILL BE THE CASE SO WILL KEEP SIGNIFICANT
SNOWS OUT OF OUR FORECAST AREA TODAY. LAKE EFFECT SNOW WARNINGS
ARE OUT TO OUR NORTH AND LOOK GREAT. THE REST OF THE FORECAST AREA
WAS SEEING SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS AND FLURRIES ON A WEST TO
SOUTHWEST FLOW. NAM AND GFS SOUNDINGS ARE SHOWING VERY STEEP LOW-
LEVEL LAPSE RATES THRU THE MORNING WHICH WAS LEADING TO SOME
SMALL CAPE UNDER THE INVERSION WHICH WAS AT ABOUT 800 MB OR 5000
FEET. THIS WAS ENOUGH TO ORGANIZE SOME SNOW SHOWERS AND FLURRIES.
MUCH OF THIS SMALL CAPE WAS IN THE MAX GROWTH REGIME FOR ICE
CRYSTALS. AS THE DAY PROGRESSES THE BOUNDARY LAYER WILL CONTINUE
TO BE DRYING AND I EXPECT THE ACVTY TO MOVE BACK CLOSER TO THE
LAKES. SO I HAVE SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS AND FLURRIES DIMINISHING
SOME TO THE WEST.

AS FOR WINDS SYR JUST GUSTED TO 40 KNOTS AND RME WAS STILL HITTING 38
KNOTS WHICH IS CLOSE TO ADVY CRITERIA. WILL HOLD ONTO WIND ADVY
UNTIL WINDS MARKEDLY DROP OFF.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
FOR TONIGHT AND TUESDAY...ALL MODELS SHOW A CLIPPER-TYPE SYSTEM
TRACK FROM THE GREAT LAKES REGION TONIGHT TO NORTH OF LAKE
ONTARIO BY TUESDAY EVENING AND THEN TO OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST
BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. AS THIS SYSTEM APPROACHES NEW YORK AND
PENNSYLVANIA THE LOW-LEVEL WINDS WILL BACK TO THE SOUTHWEST AND
SEND ANY RESIDUAL LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS TO THE NORTH OR CUT
THEM OFF FROM THEIR SOURCE REGION. SO I DRY OUT TONIGHT IN OUR
FORECAST. ALL SYNOPTIC SCALE MODELS SHOW A REGION OF WARM AIR
ADVECTION (OR ISENTROPIC LIFT IF YOU PREFER THAT COORDINATE
SYSTEM) ACROSS NEW YORK AND PENNSYLVANIA TUESDAY MORNING. HOWEVER
THIS SYSTEM WILL BE MOISTURE STARVED AND SOUTHWEST WINDS TEND TO
DOWNSLOPE ACROSS A WIDE AREA OF CENTRAL NY AND NORTHEAST PA. THE
EXCEPTIONS ARE THE CATSKILLS AND SOUTHERN TUG HILL PLATEAU AND
ALLEGHENIES OF WESTERN NY. THEN AS THE CLIPPER TRACKS TO OUR
NORTHEAST TUESDAY AFTERNOON THERE IS SOME LAKE ENHANCED COLD FRONTAL
SNOW SHOWERS THAT WILL ADD A BIT MORE TO THE TOTAL ACCUMULATIONS.
FOR NOW WE SEE MOST AREAS GETTING AROUND 1 INCH WITH LOCALLY 2-3
INCHES IN THE CATSKILLS TO UPPER MOHAWK AND SOUTHERN TUG HILL
PLATEAU AND WESTERN STEUBEN COUNTY.

AFTER THIS SYSTEM PASSES TUESDAY EVENING, THE INVERSION CLIMBS TO
ALMOST 700 MB AND THE MEAN WIND IN THIS LAYER IS FROM 280-290
DEGREES. BOTH THE GFS AND NAM MODEL SOUNDINGS BETWEEN ABOUT 6Z-9Z
AND 18Z-21Z WEDNESDAY INDICATE UPWARD MOTION IN THE MAX ICE
CRYSTAL GROWTH REGIME SUGGESTING SIGNIFICANT SNOW GROWTH
POTENTIAL. THE 850 MB TEMPERATURES WERE AROUND -18C WHICH GIVES AT
LEAST A 23C DIFFERENTIAL WHICH IS EXTREME LAKE-INDUCED
INSTABILITY. THE ONLY UNCERTAINTY IS THE EXACT WIND DIRECTION
WHICH IS STILL SOMEWHAT UNCERTAIN. IT LOOKS LIKE AT LEAST 8-12
INCHES OF SNOW TUESDAY NGT AND WEDNESDAY AND POSSIBLY MORE
SOMEWHERE IN ONONDAGA, MADISON OR ONEIDA COUNTIES. THIS COULD BE A
BIG EVENT FOR THE THRUWAY CORRIDOR, THE FIRST OF THIS LATE
EVOLVING WINTER SEASON. ISSUED LAKE EFFECT SNOW WATCHES FOR
TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY TO COVER FOR ONONDAGA, ONEIDA AND
MADISON COUNTIES.

ALL LAKE EFFECT ACTIVITY WINDS DOWN WED NGT AS FLOW BACKS MORE
SOUTHWESTERLY.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
WIND FIELD WILL LIKELY WAVER BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN NW AND WEST
THROUGH THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...BUT WITH ENOUGH OF A CONTINUOUS
INFLUX OF COLD AIR TO KEEP THE LAKE BANDS GOING. AT THIS TIME IT
APPEARS THE WED THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT TIME PERIOD APPEARS TO BE
THE MOST FAVORABLE FOR SIGNIFICANT LAKE EFFECT SNOW ACCUMULATIONS
ACROSS THE NRN COUNTIES. WILL NEED TO KEEP AN EYE ON THIS EVENT AS
IT DEVELOPS THROUGH THE WEEK AND MODEL GUIDANCE GETS A BETTER
HANDLE ON THE WIND TRAJECTORIES.

A WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE EVENTUALLY BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTH
ON FRIDAY AND ALLOWS THE LES TO END. THE PATTERN IS EXPECTED TO
REMAIN ACTIVE HOWEVER INTO THE WEEKEND AS ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM IS
FORECAST TO DEVELOP OVER THE OHIO VALLEY AND LIFT INTO THE NE
THROUGH THE WEEKEND. IT IS TOO EARLY TO DETERMINE THE EXACT NATURE
OF THIS SYSTEM...BUT ALL SIGNS POINT TO A WINTRY STORM SYSTEM.

&&

CONCERN. ONE...THE WINDS WILL BE VERY GUSTY FROM THE WEST THROUGH
23Z OR 12/00Z ACROSS THE REGION WITH CIGS RUNNING AROUND 3 TO
