Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New York NY
345 PM EDT WED JUN 8 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure builds from the north and west through early
Saturday. A warm front approaches Saturday night followed by a
cold frontal passage on Sunday. High pressure over the Midwest will
then slowly build east through early next week, while low pressure
slowly weakens across the Canadian Maritimes.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
H5 Vort max is pivoting to the south of the area with MCV-like
feature moving across the ocean waters. Showers will begin to
taper off from west to east as subsidence and dry air behind the
vort max move over the region. A few embedded thunderstorms still
possible across eastern Long Island and southeast Connecticut
through around 21Z.

Temperatures have fallen well into the 50s for much of the area
within the rainfall. At 19z, the temperature at Central Park was
52 degrees, which is quite impressive for an afternoon reading in
early June. As clouds thin and the rain ends, should see
temperatures recover into the upper 50s and lower 60s this
evening.

Behind the departing MCV, a shower or two could move into the far
NW interior this evening with some trailing energy so have left
slight chance pop here, but otherwise dry conditions expected this
evening with clearing skies.

Breezy NW flow tonight as high pressure builds in from the north
and west. Lows will fall into the 40s inland and Long Island Pine
Barrens and lower to middle 50s elsewhere.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
Deep upper trough over New England and the Canadian Maritimes will
keep a general NW flow over the region on Thursday. High pressure
will continue to slowly build in from the west. A fairly strong
pressure gradient from low pressure over the Canadian Maritimes
and high to the west will keep a gusty WNW-NW winds across the
area.

Dry atmospheric column should prevent much, if any cloud cover so
Mostly sunny skies forecast. High temperatures will be a bit below
normal in the lower to middle 70s. Dew points mixing out into the
upper 30s and low 40s will make it feel quite comfortable as well.

Winds will weaken after sunset, but there will still be enough of
a gradient to prevent atmosphere from completely decoupling. Lows
should fall into the 40s inland and lower to middle 50s elsewhere.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Mean upper trough will remain across Eastern Canada and the
Northeast through the period with near seasonable temps through
the weekend and mainly dry conditions. A high amplitude ridge
over the mid section on the country briefly expands east Friday
into Saturday with warming heights aloft and the approach of a
warm front Saturday afternoon and night. This is short lived
though as strong jet energy from the Northwest territories of
Canada dives southeast across Hudson Bay Saturday and into the
Northeast Sunday into Monday with a deepening cutoff low. This
will be preceded by a cold frontal passage on Sunday followed by
temps early next week at or below seasonable levels. Stayed with a
model consensus at this time, but should this solution materialize
a much colder airmass could be in store for Monday into Tuesday
with moderation by midweek as heights aloft begin to rise. The
best chance for rainfall is with the aforementioned warm front and
cold frontal passage Saturday afternoon into Sunday morning. This
would be in the form of showers, possibly a thunderstorm. Rainfall
amounts remain uncertain at this time due to the area being on
the eastern periphery of the overrunning rain shield.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
A trough of low pressure moves through the terminals early this
evening. High pressure begins to build in late tonight and Thursday.

Showers and isolated thunderstorms will be exiting the terminals 20Z
to 00Z. Conditions were mainly VFR with local MVFR visibilities and
ceilings. Winds will generally be NW, 300, 15 to 20KTS with gusts
around 30 KTS. Gusty NW winds continue in the NYC metro area
overnight, diminishing somewhat. Wind increase again during Thursday
morning, gusting up to 30 KTS.

isolated thunderstorms.

.MARINE...
Increasing pressure gradient this evening could bring winds on the
ocean to near gale force. Have elected to continue with an SCA,
but mention occasional gale gusts in the forecast. Ocean seas will
also continue to build to SCA levels. Otherwise, SCA conditions on
all waters are expected through Thursday evening. Conditions on
near shore waters may briefly fall below, but pick back again
during the day on Thursday. Diminishing winds Thursday evening
should allow conditions on all waters to fall below SCA levels
into Thursday night. However, if winds stay up longer the SCA may
need to be extended on the ocean.

Generally looking for sub-SCA conditions Friday into Sunday. A
cold frontal passage on Sunday will be followed by a stronger NW
flow that could bring marginal SCA conditions to the waters late
Sunday into Monday, with the best chance being across the ocean
waters.

No widespread significant rainfall through the middle of next
