AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Albany NY
407 PM EDT Sat Jul 6 2019

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will move south of the region tonight with
the scattered showers and thunderstorms ending.  A drier and less
humid air mass will be over the region tomorrow with seasonable
temperatures.  High pressure will be in control Sunday night into
the middle of next week with dry weather, moderating temperatures
back above normal and fairly comfortable humidity levels.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
As of 406 PM EDT...A humid and tropical air mass will be over
the region late this afternoon with sfc dewpts in the upper 60s
to lower 70s. Prefrontal lines of showers and thunderstorms
continue to form from the Capital Region and Berkshires north
and west. The PWAT was 1.90" on the 12Z KALY sounding, as well
as WFO OKX. WFO BUF upstream was 2.02", so we are looking at
PWATS +2 to +3 STD DEVS above normal based on the GEFS. So some
enhanced hourly rainfall rates of 1-2"/hr are possible. The
steering flow is a bit stronger limiting widespread flash flood
threat. Observational data shows over the models, west to
southwest winds in the 700-500 hPa layer of 20-30 kts, so any
convection should be moving along, and there is a small risk of
training. Our thinking remains the same and isolated flash
flooding is possible. Antecedent conditions are dry and
1-,3-,6-hr gridded FFG values are high. The severe threat
continues to be contingent on maximizing CAPE, pcpn loading, and
a few wet microbursts potentially forming. Mid-level lapse
rates are poor. DCAPE values per the latest SPC RAP Mesoanalysis
are 400-600 J/kg, and MLCAPE values are in the 1000-2000 J/kg
range due to the high dewpts. 0-6 km bulk shear is 20-25 kts, so
loosely organized deep convection is possible organizing into a
line or two with some gusty or borderline damaging winds. A few
severe thunderstorms may be possible.

FQT lighting was kept in the forecast grids with any
thunderstorms. We will monitor for an isolated severe threat.
Hail does not look like a threat due to freezing levels around
15 kft AGL, weak lapse rates and taller and skinny sounding
profiles.

Based the latest CAMS the showers and thunderstorms should end
quickly between 6-9 pm EDT from the Capital Region/Berkshires/Mohawk
Valley north and west, and then between 9 pm - midnight south
and east. A few showers may linger, shortly before or just after
06Z as the dewpt boundary lingers upstream of the main cold
front. These showers will be near the mid Hudson Valley/NW CT.
Sfc dewpts will fall into the upper 40s to mid/upper 50s from
the Capital Region north and west by daybreak, and upper 50s to
mid 60s south and east. There may be some patchy fog around the
area with the greatest possibility along the CT River Valley in
southeast VT. In the cold advection in the wake of front, lows
will fall back into the 50s to mid 60s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
Sunday...A splendid and delightful finish to the 4th of July
holiday weekend is expected with a drier air mass continuing to
build into the region from southeast Canada and the Great Lakes
Region. Low-level cold advection will continue with H850 temps
dipping into the +12C to +15C range from northwest to southeast
across the forecast area. The subsidence from the ridge building
in should yield mostly sunny conditions. Sfc dewpts will be
mainly in the 50s. Highs will be near seasonal normals in the
upper 70s to lower 80s in the valleys, and upper 60s to mid 70s
over the higher terrain. North winds will generally be 5 to 10
mph.

Sunday night...A beautiful early July night with mostly
clear/clear and cool conditions. Some radiational cooling is
expected with clear skies and the winds becoming calm. Lows will
drop to the mid 40s to lower 50s over the southern Adirondacks,
Lake George/Glens Falls area, and southern VT, and mid to upper
50s from the Mohawk Valley/Capital Region south and east.

Monday-Monday Night...A great stretch of fair weather continues
for early July with the sfc anticyclone ridging eastward from
the central/eastern Great Lakes Region over NY and New England.
Heights will begin to rise aloft by Mon night.  Temps will be
near seasonal normals with 70s to lower 80s for highs, and 50s
for lows will very comfortable humidity levels.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
High pressure at the surface with ridging building aloft will
bring mostly clear skies for Tuesday and Wednesday. Temperatures
will start out near normal for Tuesday, but warm slightly under
the influence of the upper level ridge for Wednesday. Humidity
levels will be fairly comfortable both days, although Tuesday
gets the nod as the drier day.

A short wave trough riding the northern border will approach the
region on Thursday and cross over the area on Friday. Chances for
showers and thunderstorms increase to likely levels on Thursday,
pulling back to the chance category for Friday. With clouds,
showers, and cooler temperatures about, temperatures both days will
edge back to near normal. Some indications that precipitable water
values could increase to about one standard deviation above normal
with the passage of the trough. So some heavier
showers/thunderstorms possible, mainly creating minor ponding issues.

From the vantage point of one week out, next Saturday looks dry with
weak high pressure building in.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Showers and some thunderstorms have developed this afternoon at
or near all terminals. While the main driver focus for
thunderstorm activity is across northern NY as a cold front sags
south, high humidity and warm temperatures combined with small-
scale features have created favorable conditions for
thunderstorms at all terminals now.

While no TSRA's are forecast as prevailing, they are forecast in
TEMPO groups. Timing of these initial storm is somewhat
difficult given the small scale nature of the triggers. The cold
front offers a more coherent focus for thunderstorm
development. For the most part, through the TEMPO mechanism IFR
TSRA are forecast at all terminals through about 00Z.

For the remainder of the evening drier air will filter in
alleviating the threat of any BR/FG development after the rain.
VFR conditions prevail through Sunday.

Outlook...

Sunday through Wednesday: No Operational Impact. NO SIG WX.
Wednesday Night: Moderate Operational Impact. Chance of SHRA.
Thursday: High Operational Impact. Likely SHRA...TSRA.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
A cold front will move south of the region tonight with
the scattered showers and thunderstorms ending.  A drier and less
humid air mass will be over the region tomorrow with seasonable
temperatures.  High pressure will be in control Sunday night into
the middle of next week with fair and dry weather.

The maximum RH values tonight will be in the 85 to 100 percent
range, and then lower to 30 to 50 percent Sunday afternoon.
Expect the RH values to recover the 75 to 100 percent Monday
morning.

The winds will shift to the northwest or north at 5 to 15 mph
tonight, and will continue to be northerly at 5 to 10 mph Sunday
afternoon. The winds will become light to calm Sunday night.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
The cold front late this afternoon into tonight will interact
with a very humid and moist airmass with surface dewpoints in
the upper 60s to lower 70s with PWAT values +2 to +3 STD DEVs
above normal in the 1.7-2.0+ inch range. Scattered showers and
thunderstorms will continue into the early evening ahead of the
front.

There is a threat for urban and poor-drainage flooding, as well
as isolated flash flooding if multiple rounds of convection
occur repeatedly over one location. Basin average QPF of 0.25 to
0.75 inches are possible with locally higher amounts ranging
from 1 to 2+ inches. The flash flooding threat will be lessened
tremendously by the dry antecedent conditions.

A period of dry weather will occur Sunday through Wednesday.
