Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Burlington VT
735 PM EDT Wed Aug 2 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
Above normal temperatures and deeper moisture will set the stage
for isolated to scattered afternoon and evening showers and
thunderstorms today and Thursday. Better chances for showers and
thunderstorms will exist Friday into Saturday as an upper level
trough of low pressure slowly moves across the region. Cooler
and drier weather is expected on Sunday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 630 PM EDT Wednesday...The forecast remains in overall
good shape as we progress into the evening hours. With
relatively high freezing levels (12-13 kft) and weakly forced
flow aloft, convection today was unorganized and pulse in nature
with a few briefly stronger updrafts that plausibly led to
gusty winds and some small hail here and there - nothing too
much above "garden variety" stuff. With loss of heating activity
is steadily on the downturn and have leaned in the direction of
hourly HRRR pops through 9-10 pm or so, after which we should
see a mainly dry overnight period. Most concentrated lingering
activity through sunset should be across the Adirondacks where a
brief heavier downpour will remain possible. Some variable high
clouds from this afternoon's convection continues to float
around here and there, but this should trend bodily toward
partly cloudy/mostly clear skies later tonight along with patchy
fog in favored locales - all covered in current forecast quite
well. Have a great evening.

Prior discussion...
Still dealing with an environment conducive to pulse storms
late this afternoon with temperatures in the 80s and dew points
in the lower to mid 60s. This combined with 850/500 millibar
lapse rates approaching dry adiabatic and we have enough
instability for isolated pulse storms. Flow aloft is very weak
and thus as we get to sunset...we lose the instability and any
showers or storms come to an end. Should be quiet overnight with
some fog forming in the favored valley locations. Lows will be
in the 60s with some 50s in the mountains.

Thursday is looking very similar to today. Highs in the
80s...dew points in the 60s...and steeper mid level lapse rates
to produce sufficient instability for pulse storms to develop.
Activity will be terrain driven and any mesoscale boundaries.
Flow aloft remains weak and once we lose the daytime
heating...showers and storms will come to an end. Will continue
to word the activity as isolated to scattered showers and
storms. Brief heavy downpours and gusty winds would be the main
threat if any of the storms get organized...which has a low
likelihood.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
As of 337 PM EDT Wednesday...Thursday night will be similar to
Wednesday night with any convection quickly coming to an end and
clear skies and light winds allowing for some fog in the
favored valley locations. Composite analysis of the convective
potential for Friday looks different than Wednesday and
Thursday. Upper trough moves across the Great Lakes but still
remains well west of the area. This will keep more favorable
deep layer shear out across the eastern Great Lakes and into
western New York and parts of northern New York. At this time
feel in our area the Saint Lawrence Valley will see sufficient
deep layer shear moving over the top of the favorable
instability that is expected to develop with highs in the 80s
and dew points once again in the 60s. Could see some organized
storms late in the day and will have to keep an eye on this
situation as there may be an increased hail and wind threat.
This upper trough is slow to move east so we lose the
instability Friday night when the stronger shear finally moves
over the area. Feel the threat for showers and some storms will
exist...but stronger convection may be limited.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
As of 352 PM EDT Wednesday...Trends in the long term continue to
slow the timing of the front that comes through the weekend. I
trended the forecast towards the EC supporting showers across
the eastern Dacks Saturday morning and then brings the showers
into Vermont later in the day. The PWATS do surge but there's a
only small window in which we could see convection. However the
forcing isn't collocated in with the axis of heaviest precip so
I'm not too bold on the idea of significant weather.

High pressure builds into the region for Sunday leading to
cooler and drier conditions which brings our temperatures back
to near normal. With northwest flow I did keep the idea of some
lingering showers as there may be some orographic lift helping
showers to stick around.

Towards Monday afternoon, an upper level low will dig into the
the Great Lakes region and bring an surface low pressure system
up the Saint Lawrence valley. This should bring widespread
showers and thunderstorms Monday into Tuesday.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Through 00Z Friday...Isolated storms, mainly in northern NY
winding down this evening and have TAF sites dry through the
overnight hours. Expect KMPV/KSLK to fog in again tonight as
last night with good radiational cooling in light winds and
clearing skies, and dewpoints in the mid 60s. More of a LIFR fog
threat at KSLK where a brief thunderstorm this afternoon dropped
a quick 0.17 inch of rain to wet the ground. Any LIFR fog &
stratus to dissipate around 12z. Thursday afternoon similar to
today with moist unstable airmass and weak forcing, focusing
afternoon thunderstorms again mainly in the higher terrain. Went
predominately with VCSH for now with chances in the outer period
of the TAF. Light southerly wind to become near calm overnight
except KRUT where nocturnal drainage wind from the southeast
sets up.

Outlook...

Thursday Night: VFR. Isolated SHRA...Isolated TSRA...Patchy FG.
Friday: VFR. Breezy. Scattered SHRA...Scattered TSRA...Patchy FG.
Friday Night: VFR. Breezy. Scattered SHRA...Isolated TSRA.
