Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Binghamton NY
1151 AM EDT MON JUL 18 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
An approaching front will bring a round of thunderstorms today,
some of which could be strong to severe with damaging winds and
large hail, mainly late morning through afternoon. Cooler and more
comfortable weather will visit Tuesday and Wednesday before heat
returns for the end of the week. The midweek period looks dry, but
there will be a chance of thunderstorms towards the weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
Updated at 1130 am...
Band of showers with isolated thunderstorms is moving east across
the area late this morning. These storms have not been severe but
have produced some localized heavy downpours and some lightning.
Latest SPC meso-analysis indicates MLCAPE values near to just
above 1000 J/kg for areas that have not gotten rain today... with
just below 1000 J/kg for areas that have seen some rain. With some
clearing expected during the mid-afternoon behind this system
still think that many areas could see about 1500 J/kg. Meanwhile
visible satellite is showing lines of cu development acrosss
western NY late this morning and suspect that this might develop
into another batch of thunderstorms moving across our area late
this afternoon into early this evening. Plenty of wind/shear will
be available for these storms with 12z BUF sounding showing 50 kt
at 500 mb and 40 kts at 700 mb, so instability will be the main
question mark for this afternoon. Area remains in a slight risk
for severe weather for this afternoon into this evening. Previous
discussion is below.

725 am update...
Lead wave of thunderstorms now carrying through northwestern PA
into western NY has been very poorly handled by the models. It
will likely weaken while moving across the Finger Lakes-Central
Southern Tier-NY Thruway, as it runs into less unstable air. That
being said, this is definitely throwing a quirk into the forecast
for today. It is becoming apparent that the shortwave will not
organize as much into a line as originally envisioned, except
perhaps on its way east of I-81 early-mid afternoon. However,
environment will still be supportive of severe weather. Instead of
being a line, new cells this afternoon will probably take the form
of clusters. Coverage of those cells will be hit-or-miss.

325 AM update...
Severe weather potential remains our primary concern Today. Main
risk is for damaging winds but large hail and even an isolated
tornado cannot be ruled out.

Though the models differ slightly in how to handle convection
today, they have come into better agreement on timing of the
shortwave aloft that will serve as the trigger. This will coincide
with diurnal heating. Based on model depictions of the shortwave,
which matches well with current upstream convection, the main
period of concern will be late morning-early afternoon in the
west-northwest (Central Twin Tiers-Finger Lakes-NY Thruway
corridor), to early-mid afternoon in the east-southeast (Wyoming
Valley- Poconos-Catskills). After that main wave goes through,
there could still be a few solitary cells into late afternoon-
early evening.

As for severe parameters, if anything they have trended a little
more worrisome. It has been typical for the NAM to be much higher
than the GFS on CAPE values this season, but this time even the
GFS peaks around 2000 J/kg, primarily due to fairly steep midlevel
lapse rates which have been fairly hard to come by so far this
year. Shear values are also on the high side. 0-6km bulk shear is
projected into the 40-50 knot range, along with 0-3km values into
the 30s knot range. The good amount of synoptic wind flow, and
the generally unidirectional nature of it, would suggest potential
for damaging winds via persistent line segments as mentioned by
the Storm Prediction Center in the Severe Weather Outlook. Based
on our expected atmospheric parameters, our local severe weather
analog tool turns up several past events featuring many damaging
wind reports and instances of hail, and even a couple events with
isolated tornadoes.

We are still designated as a slight risk for severe thunderstorms
areawide, though SPC notes there will be a corridor which will be
more vulnerable to damaging wind potential from northern PA
northeastward. This is due to overlapping of large scale ascent
from a well placed right entrance region of a jet maximum aloft,
and enhanced mid level flow as evidenced by the bulk shear values.

Highs will be in the 80s though with dewpoints sneaking into the
mid to upper 60s which will make it more uncomfortable. Temperature
details of course will be affected by the expected passing of the
line of storms; if not for that, more of the area would eclipse 90
degrees. A southwest breeze ahead of the approaching front may
help the combination of warmth and humidity feel a little more
tolerable. Then for tonight, behind the storms and frontal
passage, cool air advection and falling dewpoints will allow for
lows in the upper 50s to mid 60s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
High pressure builds in for midweek bringing fair weather under
mainly sunny skies with low humidity. Temperatures will be a
little cool Tuesday on NW winds behind Monday's cold front with
highs mostly in the 70s to around 80 in the Wyoming Valley. This
will be followed by a cool night Tuesday night with lows mostly in
the low to mid 50s except some upper 40s in the Catskills.
Temperatures warm a couple degrees Wednesday over Tuesday's highs
with continuing mostly sunny skies.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
The main story for the long range will be the return of heat and
humidity as high pressure moves off the coast and a SW flow
develops. This will bring in some of the heat from the central
part of the country. As far as details, highs Thursday climb well
into the 80s for most areas with humidity levels still not too
high and continuing mainly sunny skies. However by Friday into
next weekend highs in the 80s to low 90s look to be accompanied by
dew points well into the 60s resulting in conditions feeling quite
muggy. Also, Friday through next weekend will see the return of
scattered showers and thunderstorms.

&&

.AVIATION /16Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Wave ahead of cold front is producing showers and thunderstorms
this morning upstream of the terminals. TSRA will weaken while
carrying into the NY terminals, though CB will be probable for
KSYR-KRME later this morning-midday. New scattered TSRA will then
develop for most terminals midday through afternoon, and these may
contain strong gusts. Best estimate for timing of CB is as per
TEMPO groups noted in the TAFs, but monitor for amendments due to
uncertainty for specific placement. Behind the TSRA, wind will
veer W-WNW into evening while slackening.

OUTLOOK...

Tue-Wed-Thu...VFR except for potential valley fog for KELM in
predawn hours Wed and Thu mornings.

Thu Night-Fri...Mainly VFR but there will be a chance of SHRA-
TSRA and associated brief restrictions.
