Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New York NY
215 PM EDT Wed Sep 12 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will dissipate across the area through Thursday.
Meanwhile, tonight into Thursday high pressure will begin
building in from the north. High pressure over northern New
England and extending into the region will drift offshore
Saturday and then remain into the beginning of next week. A
frontal system approaches for Tuesday possibly with tropical
moisture from Florence. Refer to the National Hurricane Center
for the latest forecast updates on Hurricane Florence.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
With the frontal boundary nearby today and some diurnal
heating, instability is expected to increase. Further vertical
lift will be given due to periodic shortwave and their positive
vorticity advection along the northwest of the upper level
longwave ridge the region will be in. The airmass remains very
moist with SW flow from low to upper levels and precipitable
waters of 2.18" from the 06Z OKX sounding. Precipitable waters
will remain near to slightly above 2 inches through today.

Scattered shower and thunderstorm activity should increase
through the afternoon, with CAMS continuing to focus on the
interior hill terrain with greatest coverage. Isolated
development possible along sea breeze boundaries as well. Due to
slow storm movement localized urban and poor drainage flooding
is possible.

High temperatures are expected to be in the mid to upper 70s
with abundant clouds through the day and light easterly flow.

There remains a high risk for the meteorological enhancement of
rip current formation at Atlantic Ocean beaches today.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...
For tonight, the evening will still have a chance of showers and
thunderstorms. The chances for thunderstorms then decreases
overnight into Thursday. The chances for showers will be due to
once again periodic shortwave activity along the northwest side
of the longwave upper ridge in the local region.

High pressure will begin to build in more from the north so,
moisture will eventually not be as deep especially Thursday. The
low levels will eventually increase with easterly flow,
promoting more stable conditions especially farther east.
Shallow boundary layer with some more drying between 5 and 12kft
may allow for the rain showers to be very light and perhaps
drizzle late tonight into Thursday.

For lows tonight, only expecting temperatures to lower into the
upper 60s to lower 70s with less of a diurnal curve. Airmass is
still relatively humid with dewpoints also in the upper 60s to
lower 70s. Hence, low levels will be very close to getting
saturated once again. Patchy fog was placed in the forecast for
much of tonight into early Thursday. It is possible the fog
could be dense again especially for eastern coastal areas
tonight into early Thursday. Highs Thursday will be in the 70s
once again, but lower 70s for Southern Connecticut and Eastern
Long Island with greater marine influence from the easterly
winds.

There will likely be another high risk for the meteorological
enhancement of rip current formation at Atlantic Beaches
Thursday.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
With the exception of Florence, a large scale upper level ridge will
extend across the eastern half of the country through the weekend.
Local impacts from Florence will be rough seas, high surf, beach
erosion and dangerous rip currents. Please refer to the National
Hurricane Center for the latest track and details on Florence. As a
longwave trough moves into the Pacific northwest Monday, and tracks
through southern Canada, the ridge will weaken. The developing
frontal system in southeastern Canada and into the Great Lakes may
begin to affect the region Monday into Tuesday with a chance of
showers. There is some uncertainty with the timing of this system
with the ECMWF trending a little slower, and precipitation may not
move into the region until as late as Wednesday.

There may be a few light showers or light rain Friday across the
inland areas as a weak impulse tracks across the region.
However, with the ridge in place the chances of precipitation will
be slight.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
High pressure builds down from New England into Thursday
afternoon.

Still on track for improvement to MVFR this afternoon except for
possibly at CT terminals. Still looks like IFR/VLIFR conditions
return tonight, though exact timing is uncertain. Then expect
conditions to improve to MVFR towards midday on Thursday.

Winds vary from SE to N across the region at less than 10kt will
become light and variable throughout by early this evening.
Winds then become NE-E at less than 10kt by mid-late Thursday
morning.

     NY Metro Enhanced Aviation Weather Support...

Detailed information, including hourly TAF wind component forecasts,
can be found at: http:/www.weather.gov/zny/n90

KJFK TAF Comments: Low confidence in timing of onset of IFR
conditions this evening.

KLGA TAF Comments: Low confidence in timing of onset of MVFR
conditions this afternoon and then of IFR conditions this
evening.

KEWR TAF Comments: Low confidence in timing of onset of IFR
conditions this evening.

KTEB TAF Comments: Low confidence in timing of improvement to
IFR and MVFR today.

KHPN TAF Comments: Low confidence in timing of onset of MVFR
conditions this afternoon and then of IFR conditions this
evening.

KISP TAF Comments: Low confidence in timing of onset of MVFR
conditions this afternoon and then of IFR conditions this
evening.

.OUTLOOK FOR 18Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY...
.Thursday afternoon-Friday night...MVFR/IFR probable. There is
also a chance of isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms.
.Saturday-Monday...VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
Marine dense fog should gradually improve through the afternoon
with heating. The winds will remain light through tonight with
a weak pressure gradient in place. For Thursday, the pressure
gradient increases between low pressure to the south and high
pressure to the north with an increase in easterly flow. Wind
gusts up to near 20 kt are expected on the ocean Thursday. Ocean
seas will continue to build during the short term with seas of
mostly 5 to 6 ft today and then 6 to 8 ft tonight with some 9 to
10 ft ocean seas in the forecast for Thursday. Small craft
advisory for hazardous seas is still in effect for the ocean and
now goes through Thursday night. Helping build these ocean seas
will be the increasing swell from distant Hurricane Florence.
Please refer to the National Hurricane Center (www.nhc.noaa.gov)
for the latest track and details with Hurricane Florence.

Ocean seas above 5 feet will be ongoing Thursday night and a small
craft advisory for hazardous seas has been extended through Thursday
night. Ocean seas will likely remain above 5 feet through the
weekend and a SCA will likely be needed. Long period swells from
Florence will cause rough conditions at the entrances to inlets and
eastern Long Island Sound. Refer to the National Hurricane Center
(www.nhc.noaa.gov) for the latest forecast updates.

Winds will remain below SCA levels on all the forecast waters
through the weekend.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Additional rainfall is forecast to range generally between two
and four tenths of an inch, with locally higher amounts possible
through this evening. Through this evening, localized minor
flooding of urban and poor drainage areas, is possible in any
heavier downpours and/or thunderstorms. There is a low and
isolated potential for flash flooding due to the expected slow
storm movement.

Expecting mostly rainfall totals late tonight through Thursday
of less than a quarter of an inch with rain expected to be
lighter if it occurs during that timeframe.

No significant widespread hydrologic problems are then expected
through the weekend.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
The coastal flood threat will continue to diminish tonight as
high pressure builds in and swell energy decreases.

Meanwhile at the Atlantic beachfront, the surf is expected to
build to 8 to 14 ft Tonight and continue into Friday. A few
higher waves are possible. The high surf should gradually
subside this weekend, to 3 to 5 ft or so by Monday.

This will cause widespread beach flooding and erosion,
particularly during the times of high tide Thursday and Friday.
At this point the probability for overwashes for localized
overwashes is low. Brief and localized minor flooding is
possible along the most vulnerable shoreline and barrier beach
communities during these times of high tide.

.EQUIPMENT...
NYC NOAA Weather Radio Station KWO-35 (162.55 MHz) remains off
the air for an extended period of time.
