Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New York NY
416 AM EDT Sat Aug 5 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front passes today. High pressure builds across the area
on Sunday, then shifts south and eastward ahead of a developing
low pressure system that will impact the area Monday into
Tuesday. High pressure moves across the area Wednesday followed
by another low pressure system passing to the south for the late
week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
Ahead of vigorous trough, and strong cold front, showers and
thunderstorms will march across the area this morning, with
drier conditions anticipated during the afternoon.

Building MUCape, 20 to 35 kt mid level winds, and LI progged to
fall as low as -4 this morning will allow for a few stronger
storms, with possible bowing segments early this morning. In
addition, increasing PW around 2 inches thanks to increasing
southerly flow ahead of the front will allow for heavy downpours
this morning as well.

Based on latest mos guidance, expecting high temps in the lower
to middle 80s. Plenty of clouds this morning, with partial
sunshine this afternoon behind the front, west to east.

There is a moderate risk for the development of rip currents at
ocean beaches today.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SUNDAY/...
Skies clear as rain departs to the east. Initially gusty and
dry westerly flow in the wake of the front is expected. Gusts
should diminish as the evening progresses. Lows will drop into
the 60s in and around The City and at the coast with lows in the
50s elsewhere.

On Sunday, high pressure builds to the south, with zonal flow
aloft. Mostly sunny, and less humid weather is anticipated,
with increasing high clouds later in the day. Temperatures will
average a few degrees below seasonal norms, mid 70s to lower
80s.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Anomalously high pressure over the Caribbean and a blocking
pattern in the western U.S. will aid in keeping a series of low
pressure systems rotating through the Northeast. By Monday, two
short waves are expected to phase, with broad southwest flow
advecting increasing moisture into the region. At the moment,
solutions keeping the system more to the south seem to fit more
with climatological normals in this area, and given the
orientation of southwest flow aloft being parallel to the
boundary, the potential for heavy rainfall and training cells
will be possible. Rainfall will continue into Monday night.
Given cloudy conditions and the warm front largely expected to
stay just south of the area, temperatures will be below
climatological normals for this time of year. The system
gradually moves eastward Tuesday with improving conditions.
Temperatures should be closer to normal as high pressure moves
in through mid week. There will be increasing chances of showers
and thunderstorms by Thursday as a low pressure system
approaches from the west.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
A cold front moves through the terminals late this morning into
the afternoon. The front will be east of the terminals tonight.

MVFR, with local IFR conditions through around 14z. Showers
and thunderstorms will move across city and lower Hudson Valley
terminals through 12z and then 11-15z for Long Island and
southern CT terminals. Thunderstorms may miss immediate KSWF
terminal to the south, but have left a tempo group in for now.

S-SE winds around 10 kt into the morning hours. An occasional
gust into the upper teens and lower 20s is possible near the
coast. Brief gusty winds up to 25-30 kt possible within
thunderstorms. Winds shift to SW behind the showers and
thunderstorms, then veer to W to NW with the frontal passage.
Gusts 20-25 kt are expected late this afternoon and early
evening.

.OUTLOOK FOR 06Z SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...
.SATURDAY NIGHT-SUNDAY...VFR.
.MONDAY...IFR possible in showers and possible thunder.
.TUESDAY...CHC IFR/MVFR/shra early, otherwise VFR.
.WEDNESDAY...VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
Increasing southerly winds are expected this morning
ahead of a cold front. The front passes this afternoon with a
wind shift to the SW/W as the day progresses. Showers and
thunderstorms will impact the area, especially this morning.
Heavy rain and gusty winds are possible.

By tonight, gusty NW winds behind the front are forecast as
high pressure builds to the west. Will issue a SCA across the
ocean waters for gusty winds up to 25 kt, and building seas in
the 3 to 5 ft range.

By Sunday, winds abate, and seas should subside as the high
builds south.

A deepening low pressure system will approach then pass over
the waters Monday into Tuesday, allowing seas to build again. At
the moment, seas are expected to remain below SCA criteria, but
should the low deepen more than currently forecast, SCA
conditions will be possible. High pressure for the mid week will
lead to winds and seas subsiding before another system
approaches the area by late week.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Locally heavy rainfall is expected this morning as
thunderstorms move across the area. Rainfall rates may exceed
an inch per hour with any stronger storms or training of storms.
Flooding in poor drainage and urbanized areas will be the main
threat.

Locally heavy rain with the potential for urban/poor draining
flooding will be possible Monday into Monday night.
