Area forecast discussion, Apr 2, 10:53 PM EDT, 2 hours 38 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
1053 PM EDT SAT APR 2 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
WEAK LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE TO THE SOUTHEAST OF NOVA SCOTIA BY
TONIGHT. INTENSIFYING LOW PRESSURE FROM THE WEST ALONG A STRONG
ARCTIC COLD FRONT WILL BOTH PASS THROUGH LATE TONIGHT...AND MOVE
EAST OF NEW ENGLAND ON SUNDAY. LOW PRESSURE MOVES ACROSS THE MID
ATLANTIC REGION MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN
FOR TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...MOVING OFFSHORE WEDNESDAY NIGHT. A
SERIES OF FRONTAL SYSTEMS WILL IMPACT THE AREA THURSDAY INTO NEXT
WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL MIDNIGHT TONIGHT/...
NUMEROUS SHWRS REMAIN OVER CT. EXPECT SMALL HAIL TO CONTINUE TO
OCCUR IN THE STRONGEST ACTIVITY. HRRR SNOW ALGORITHMS FOR THIS
EVENT A BIT DECEIVING BASED ON THICKNESS. SNOW SHOULD NOT OCCUR
WITH WET BULB ZERO ABV 3000FT. AS A RESULT...HRRR INDICATES BASED
ON WET BULB ZERO HEIGHT THAT SNOW OCCURS ONLY ON THE WRN/NWRN
FLANK OF THE LOW. HEAVIEST SNOW MAY OCCUR OVER CNTRL CT PER THE
HRRR AND 00Z NAM IN A BAND OF STRONG MID LVL FROGEN...BUT DID NOT
MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENTS YET.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MIDNIGHT TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
HIGH WIND WARNINGS REMAIN FOR THE ENTIRE CWA FOR LATE TONIGHT
INTO EARLY SUNDAY AFTERNOON. THIS HAS BEEN EXTENDED FOR SOUTHERN
CT FROM NEW HAVEN AND EAST AS WELL AS SUFFOLK COUNTY NY ON LONG
ISLAND THROUGH ALL OF SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL BECOME MORE NEGATIVELY TILTED WITH HEIGHT
OVERNIGHT WITH THE HIGHEST POSITIVE VORTICITY ADVECTIONS BEGINNING.
THIS WILL BE COINCIDING WITH POLAR UPPER LEVEL JET PHASING WITH
SUBTROPICAL UPPER LEVEL JET AS WELL SOUTH OF THE REGION. AT THE
SURFACE...THE SURFACE LOW MOVES OVER THE REGION OVERNIGHT WITH A
DECREASE IN PRESSURE GRADIENT TEMPORARILY...THEN DEEPENING STILL AS
IT MOVES TOWARDS CAPE COD BY SUNDAY MORNING WITH A RAPID INCREASE IN
PRESSURE GRADIENT AND RAPID INCREASE IN COLD AIR ADVECTION WITH THE
STRONG NORTHWEST FLOW DEVELOPING. ONE FEATURE THAT IS VERY
CONSPICUOUS IN THE POSITIVE PRESSURE TRENDS OVERNIGHT INTO SUNDAY
MORNING. THERE WILL BE STRONG ISALLOBARIC ACCELERATION TOWARD THE
EAST. THIS IS VERY PRONOUNCED FROM 09-12Z SUNDAY WITH THEIR 3 HOUR
POSITIVE PRESSURE TENDENCIES OF 8-11 MB IN THE NAM. THE 6 HOUR
PRESSURE TENDENCIES SHOW 6-12 MB POSITIVE TENDENCIES SUNDAY
MORNING INTO EARLY AFTERNOON ESPECIALLY FARTHER EAST. THE
MAGNITUDE OF POSITIVE PRESSURE TENDENCIES DECREASES SUNDAY
AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING. ALSO...THE ISALLOBARIC COMPONENT WILL
NO LONGER BE ADDING TO THE WIND AFTERNOON THROUGH THE EVENING SO
WINDS WILL REALLY JUST BECOME MORE DEPENDENT ON THE MIXING DEPTH.
THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL LIKEWISE DECREASE ACROSS THE REGION
WITH A RESULTING DECREASE IN WIND. HOWEVER...THE MIXING DEPTH WILL
STILL BE PRETTY LARGE SO EVEN WITH A DECREASE IN BOUNDARY LAYER
FLOW...GUSTS WILL STILL LIKELY BE FROM NEAR THE TOP OF THE MIXED
LAYER.

IN TERMS OF PRECIPITATION...THE RAIN SHOWERS AHEAD OF THE LOW WILL
BE MIXING WITH AND CHANGING TO SNOW SHOWERS FROM NORTHWEST TO
SOUTHEAST WITH THE INCREASE IN COLD AIR ADVECTION. WINDS COMBINED
WITH SNOW WILL CREATE VERY LOW VISIBILITIES. EXACT SNOW
AMOUNTS WILL BE DETERMINED BY HOW FAST THE BOUNDARY LAYER COOLS
TO ALLOW FOR MAJORITY OF SHOWERS TO BE SNOW SHOWERS AND ALSO HOW
FAST THE SURFACE TEMPERATURES COOL BUT GENERALLY 1-2 INCHES OF
SNOW IS FORECAST FOR NORTHERN INTERIOR WITH LESS TO THE SOUTH
WHERE TEMPERATURES WILL BE MORE MARGINAL FOR ACCUMULATION. AHEAD
OF THE LOW...THERE WILL STILL BE SOME RESIDUAL INSTABILITY OF A
FEW HUNDRED J/KG TO HAVE A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS. THE ELEVATED
INSTABILITY SHIFTS WELL EAST OF THE REGION BY SUNDAY MORNING WITH
THE LOCAL REGION BECOMING MORE STABLE WITH THE COLDER AIR
ADVECTING INTO THE LOWER LEVELS.

IN TERMS OF HAZARDS THROUGH SUNDAY AFTERNOON...HIGH WIND WARNINGS
WILL REMAIN IN PLACE TONIGHT WITH MAX WINDS EXPECTED EARLY SUNDAY
WHEN THE MIXING DEPTH INCREASES AND BRINGS DOWN HIGHER WINDS WITHIN
THE STRONG BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW. THE BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS DECREASES
LATE SUNDAY MORNING AND SUNDAY AFTERNOON...BUT THE MIXING HEIGHT
WILL BE INCREASING ALLOWING FOR GUSTS TO DROP OFF ONLY BY A SMALL
AMOUNT. OUT EAST ACROSS SUFFOLK COUNTY AND SOUTHEAST
CONNECTICUT...GUSTS 50 TO 60 MPH WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE AS SHOWN
BY SOME BUFKIT SOUNDINGS MIXING FROM THE TOP OF THE MIXED LAYER.

BY SUNDAY NIGHT...MIXING HEIGHT LOWERS AND WITH PRESSURE TENDENCIES
GETTING CLOSER TO NEUTRAL...WINDS WILL SUBSTANTIALLY SUBSIDE. THERE
IS SOME SLIGHT RIDGING AT THE MID TO UPPER LEVELS SUNDAY EVENING.
WITH THE COLD AIRMASS IN PLACE...AND INITIALLY DECREASING
CLOUDS...RADIATIONAL COOLING WILL BECOME MORE EFFICIENT. THERE
WILL BE ANOTHER APPROACHING LOW PRESSURE WAVE FROM THE NORTHWEST
TOWARDS DAYBREAK MONDAY WITH SOME ASSOCIATED LIGHT SNOW WITH THE
COLD AIRMASS IN PLACE. ANOTHER HAZARD IS FORECAST BY WAY OF THE
FREEZING TEMPERATURES EXPECTED FOR REGIONS THAT HAVE ALREADY
STARTED TO EXPERIENCE SOME GREEN UP OF VEGETATION. THIS WOULD BE
FOR MOST LOCATIONS OUTSIDE OF NYC AND SOUTH OF THE MOST INTERIOR
LOCATIONS...WHICH WOULD PORTIONS OF NORTHEAST NJ....SOUTHERN
WESTCHESTER NY...NASSAU AND SUFFOLK NY ON LONG ISLAND AS WELL AS
COASTAL CT. THESE AREAS HAVE BEEN PLACED IN A FREEZE WATCH FROM
SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MID MONDAY MORNING.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
A LARGE SCALE UPPER TROUGH WILL MOVE THROUGH EASTERN CANADA AND THE
NORTHEAST MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT. MEANWHILE AN ALBERTA CLIPPER
SYSTEM MOVES ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC REGION FROM SUNDAY NIGHT INTO
MONDAY NIGHT. COLD AIR WILL BE IN PLACE AND A LIGHT ACCUMULATING
SNOWFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTHEASTERN NEW
JERSEY...THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY...MUCH OF SOUTHERN CONNECTICUT AND
ACROSS EASTERN LONG ISLAND.

A WEAK RIDGE BUILDS ACROSS THE EAST BRIEFLY TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY
AS HIGH PRESSURE BRINGS IN A RE ENFORCING COLD AIRMASS. EVEN THROUGH
OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPERATURES WILL BE WELL BELOW NORMAL NO RECORDS
ARE EXPECTED TO BE BROKEN MONDAY NIGHT OR TUESDAY NIGHT. A RETURN
FLOW SETS UP WEDNESDAY AS THE HIGH MOVES OFFSHORE.

A VERY ACTIVE PATTERN CONTINUES THROUGH THE WEEK AS ANOTHER DEEP
UPPER TROUGH MOVES INTO THE CENTRAL UNITED STATES WEDNESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY NIGHT. AT THE SAME TIME STRONG RIDGES BUILDS ACROSS THE
WEST COAST AND OVER THE NORTHWESTERN ATLANTIC. THE RESULTS IN THE
UPPER TROUGH BECOMING NEGATIVE WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY WITH
AN UPPER LOW CLOSING OFF THURSDAY. ONE DEEP SURFACE LOW MOVES SLOWLY
THROUGH THE REGION WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY. A WAVE
OF LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS ON A COLD FRONT ALONG THE EASTERN SEABOARD
FRIDAY AND IS EXPECTED TO RAPIDLY DEEPEN OFFSHORE AND MOVE ALONG THE
COAST. SO UNSETTLED WEATHER IS FORECAST WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO
NEXT WEEKEND.

&&

.AVIATION /03Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...

SCA CONDITIONS CONTINUE ON THE OCEAN VIA LINGERING SWELLS. MARINE
FORECAST APPEARS ON TRACK. OCEAN WAVE HEIGHTS ARE RANGING MAINLY
BETWEEN 5 AND 8 FT. WINDS THEN PICK UP LATE TONIGHT INTO
SUNDAY. GALES QUICKLY ESCALATE TO STORM FORCE AFTER 06Z WHEN
STRONG POSITIVE PRESSURE TENDENCIES COME IN AS WELL AS PRESSURE
GRADIENT WILL RAPIDLY TIGHTEN. STORM FORCE WINDS CONTINUE ON ALL
WATERS UNTIL 18Z SUNDAY AND THEN FOR EASTERN WATERS UNTIL 22Z
SUNDAY. WESTERN WATERS WILL BE MORE IN THE GALE RANGE 18-22Z
SUNDAY.

WINDS AND SEAS DIMINISH TO SUB-ADVY LEVELS RATHER QUICKLY LATER
SUNDAY NIGHT...BUT MAY REACH SCA LEVELS ON THE OCEAN AGAIN MON AS
THE PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS BETWEEN AN APPROACHING CLIPPER
SYSTEM AND HIGH PRESSURE TO THE SOUTH. SCA CONDS ARE THEN POSSIBLE
ON ALL WATERS MON NIGHT INTO TUE BEHIND THE DEPARTING LOW...AND
THERE IS A LOW CHC FOR GALE FORCE WINDS. SUB-ADVY CONDS RETURN FOR
MOST OF WED WITH HIGH PRES BUILDING THROUGH THE MID ATLANTIC
REGION.

SMALL CRAFT CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY ON THE OCEAN WATERS BY LATER
MONDAY AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES ACROSS THE REGION. SMALL CRAFT
CONDITIONS CONTINUE ON THE OCEAN WATERS INTO TUESDAY NIGHT AS STRONG
NORTHERN WINDS FLOW ACROSS THE WATERS BEHIND THE DEPARTING LOW AND
COLD HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN FROM THE WEST. THERE IS A CHANCE OF
SMALL CRAFT GUSTS ON THE REMAINDER OF THE WATERS TUESDAY INTO
TUESDAY EVENING.

A BRIEF PERIOD OF SUB SMALL CRAFT CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE FROM
TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. THEN IN A STRONG AND GUSTY SOUTHERLY
FLOW AHEAD OF THE NEXT LOW APPROACHING FROM THE WEST SMALL CRAFT
CONDITIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY.
