Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New York NY
234 PM EDT Thu Apr 6 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
Intensifying low pressure will move near or just west of the
area this afternoon then north of the area through Friday. High
pressure follows Saturday through Monday. The next cold front
slowly approaches from the west by mid-week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
Flood Watch continues through early this evening.

Ingredients coming together for some heavy rain then next few
hours as increasing activity along and just ahead of warm front
works north at 60 kt. In addition, low-level jet works north
along the coast and should also result in additional development
to south of Long Island, which will overspread the area as
well.

Rainfall amounts should average 1 to 1/2 inches with localized
higher amounts likely in any embedded thunderstorms.

As the upper trough becomes negatively tilted, the surface low
will approach the area along with the surface warm front. In
addition, a 60-70 kt low-level jet will intersect the boundary,
primarily from NYC and points east. This is suggestive of a
period of moderate to heavy rain showers and embedded
thunderstorms. The best timing looks to be during the afternoon
hours. Strong wind gusts to 40 mph+ may accompany the heavier
showers and thunderstorms.

A strong E then SE pressure gradient will precede the warm
front's passage, which will most likely be between 5 and 7 pm.

Stay tuned for potential flood warnings/advisories this
afternoon.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
Rain is forecast to end from SW to NE tonight with the passage of
the upper lvl short wave by 06z. Temps are forecast between 40 and
45 degs.

For Friday...With the upper low forecast to pass directly overhead,
instability showers are possible with light QPF amounts of less
than one-tenth of an inch. Under mostly cloudy skies, temps
will struggle to rise into the low 50s.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
NWP is in reasonable agreement through early next week. There are
some timing and amplitude differences...especially towards the
middle of next week.

Cutoff low pres will gradually weaken as it lifts towards the
Canadian Maritimes through Sat with the upper trof axis swinging
through by Sat morning. Any lingering shower activity Fri eve
will dissipate with the loss of heating.

Deep layered ridging then builds towards the area for the
weekend and continues through early next week resulting in dry and
increasingly warm weather across the region as a Bermuda high regime
becomes established. Highs on Mon and Tue are expected to be 10-15
degrees above normal with H85 temps between 10-15C and a deep mixing
profile.

Upper trough approaches for the middle of next week. GFS is
faster and more amplified and is the outlier...so slowed up
timing to reflect more of the GEM and EC.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
Low pressure approaches from the west today, sending a warm front
/ occluded front through the terminals during the late
afternoon to early evening hours.

IFR prevails before front eventually passes through, Improving
flight categories thereafter.

E winds...bcmg briefly S, then SW with frontal passages. Gusts
around 30 KT this aftn for coastal terminals, mainly in heavier
showers. Low level wind shear mainly mid-late aftn.

Best chance for TSTMS is from 19 to 21z. Improving thereafter.

KJFK TAF Comments: Confidence has increased for improving
conditions by 21-22z. Wind shift to south may be off by an hour.

KLGA TAF Comments: Confidence has increased for improving
conditions by 21-22z. Wind shift to south may be off by an hour.

KEWR TAF Comments: Confidence has increased for improving
conditions by 21-22z. Wind shift to south may be off by an hour.

KTEB TAF Comments: Confidence has increased for improving
conditions by 21-22z. Wind shift to south may be off by an hour.

conditions by 22z. Wind shift to south may be off by an hour.

KISP TAF Comments: Confidence has increased for improving

OUTLOOK FOR 18Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...
.Friday....VFR. Chc -SHRA/MVFR. SW to W gusts 25-30 KT.
.Saturday...VFR. NW gusts around 25 KT
.Sunday...VFR.
.Monday...VFR. SW gusts around 20 KT.
.Tuesday...VFR. SW Wind.

&&

.MARINE...
A marginal gale Warning for wind gusts up to 35 kt is in effect
for all coastal waters through 6 pm this evening.

East gales through this morning, will become southeast early this
afternoon, then south late as seas build to near 10 feet on ocean
waters and near 5 feet on Long Island Sound. Although winds are
forecast to decrease below gale gusts this evening, seas will be
slower to subside tonight through the day Friday.

Gale force winds are again possible Fri night as deep low pres
slowly tracks from northern New England towards the Canadian
Maritimes. Have decided against a gale watch at this time to
limit confusion with the current gale warning in effect.
Otherwise...SCA will continue into Sat...with seas possibly
lingering on the ocean waters into Sat night.

Marginal SCA possible late Mon/Mon eve as the pres gradient
tightens between offshore high pres and low pres/cold front
approaching from the west.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
1 to 1 1/2 inches of rain is forecast through this evening,
with locally higher amounts possible. The heaviest rain is
forecast north of the warm front this afternoon. Given the
recent heavy rainfall we have received, soil is quickly becoming
saturated and river levels are elevated. Due to these factors,
minor to moderate river flooding is possible along with urban
and small stream flooding likely. A flood watch remains in
effect.

No significant precip is then expected Fri Night through the middle
of next week.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
Based on latest guidance, a coastal flood statement may be
needed for western LI Sound for the evening high tide cycle.
Stay tuned.

A coastal flood advisory remains in effect for the south shore
bays of Long Island and NYC for the late afternoon/early
evening high tide. Strong east, then southeast winds will
likely pile water into the coast, and generally expect most
minor coastal flood benchmarks to be reached.

At this time, will not post any hazards across the Long Island Sound
locales due to a wind shift, and timing of high tide several hours
later, tonight. However, this will need to be watched.

Any flooding may be exacerbated by runoff from heavy rainfall.
