CSWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Albany, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 19, 2:04 PM EDT, 1 hour 36 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 19, 2:04 PM EDT, 1 hour 36 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Albany NY 204 PM EDT Sun May 19 2019 .SYNOPSIS... A warm front will lift northward across the region today, ushering in a warmer and more humid air mass this afternoon. Chances for showers and thunderstorms will also increase, mainly north and west of the Capital District. A few of the storms may be severe. Additional showers and a few thunderstorms will spread eastward across the area tonight, followed by more widespread showers and strong to severe thunderstorms associated with a cold front passage on Monday. Much cooler and drier air will filter in Monday night into Tuesday, with windy conditions developing. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/... ...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch has been issued for the entire forecast area except Litchfield county, CT through 9 PM this evening... s As of 2 PM EDT, Albany airport surpassed 80 degrees for the first time this season. As of 115 PM EDT, environment is becoming increasingly unstable as cumulus clouds are quickly erupting across western and central NY. Temperatures are quickly warming into the 80s in these locations, with many locations across eastern NY in the 70s to low 80s already. Expect destabilization to continue across the forecast area over the next couple of hours as convection upstream moves eastward. It looks like the Adirondacks will be impacted first as a semi-organized convective cluster off of Lake Ontario moves northeast. SPC placed the entire forecast area in a slight risk for severe weather today with strong, damaging winds and isolated hail being the primary risks. Heavy rain is also possible with PWATs over an inch. So have updated pops based on high res guidance and current radar trends. Also increased high temperatures as most locations had already exceeded previous forecasted high temps. Prev Disc... As of 1040 AM EDT, earlier showers and embedded thunderstorms were decreasing in areal coverage, remaining confined to areas from the Capital Region southeast into the central Taconics and northern Berkshires. Locally heavy downpours will remain possible as they pass through, with some hourly rainfall rates approaching 0.5-0.75"/hour. This remaining cluster of showers should continue drifting east and taper off by noontime. Elsewhere, surface warm front extended from near KRME, southeast into the central Catskills. Across western and central NYS, temperatures have already reached into the mid/upper 70s with dewpoints in the lower/mid 60s, while temps across the SW Adirondacks and Mohawk Valley remain cooler, with temps mainly in the 50s to lower 60s and dewpoints mainly in the 50s. Warmer across the mid Hudson Valley and SE Catskills, where temps have reached around 70 and dewpoints in the 50s. A break in the showers/thunderstorms will continue to be underway, before additional showers and thunderstorms develop during the mid to late afternoon hours. While differences exist in placement/timing, the hi-res CAMs are mainly focusing the most concentrated area of convection to be across the Adirondacks/Mohawk Valley/Lake George regions. This activity appears to be associated with a lake breeze boundary, with convective initiation over western/central NY downwind of Lake Ontario. With regards to the severe threat, there should be a decent instability gradient setting up with more stable/slightly cooler marine/rain-cooled modified air mass from around the Capital District eastward, while higher low-level dewpoints advect in from the south/west. While model dewpoints may be a bit high resulting in large CAPE forecasts, actual SBCAPE could still be around 1500-2000 J/Kg from around Albany north and west. The 0-6 km shear forecast still looks to be around 30-35 kt, so there should be enough buoyancy/shear to result in strong/severe storms. Best chance looks to be across the Mohawk and Schoharie Valleys and eastern Catskills, where a Slight Risk area outlook from the Storm Prediction Center is still in effect, with Marginal farther east where probabilities lower due to more stable air mass. Coverage of storms should be limited to isolated/scattered due to a 500 mb ridge axis in place through the day. Coverage of convection occurring in ridges are typically not widespread. The main threat with severe storms is expected to be damaging winds in this environment, although large hail cannot be ruled out. 850-500 mb lapse rates are forecast to be around 6-6.5 degC/km. PWAT anomalies from the GEFS will rise to around +1 to +2 STDEV, so localized downpours will likely occur. Relatively fast storm motions should limit flash flood threat. With at least partial clearing expected through this afternoon, temperatures should warm well into the 70s for much of the area, albeit not until mid to late afternoon. It will be slightly cooler across western New England due to slight marine influence with southerly low level winds. && .SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY/... Mainly scattered showers and some thunderstorms will gradually spread eastward across the region ahead of pre-frontal trough this evening into the overnight. Convection will gradually weaken as it encounters more stable environment, but could at least move into the Hudson Valley and perhaps southern VT as some of the latest CAMs are indicating. The severe threat, mainly for damaging winds continues into the evening but should decrease by late evening as the boundary layer stabilizes. Heights aloft will be lowering, so isolated embedded storms will still be possible overnight. GEFS indicating PWAT anomalies increasing to +2 to +3 STDEV, so the threat for downpours will continue. The wind field aloft will also be strengthening, so again fairly quick storm motion should preclude flash flood threat. It will be a warm/muggy night by May standards, with low temps mainly in the 60s. While not widespread/continuous, additional rounds of showers and thunderstorms are expected again on Monday. This time, the activity will be associated with the main cold front that will be pushing eastward across the area during the afternoon to early evening hours. Mixed layer flow is forecast to become southwest and increase further. The 0-6 km shear will likely be around 40-50 kt, which will be more than sufficient for storm organization. Unidirectional wind field and potential for larger magnitude of CAPE (> 2000 J/Kg) favors both a damaging wind and large hail threat. Mid level drying could also enhance hail potential. Our entire area has been placed in a Marginal Risk outlook from the Storm Prediction Center. This may need to be upgraded depending on eventual coverage of storms, since there is expected to be fairly robust instability/shear. Temperatures will be quite warm ahead of the cold front thanks to the southwest wind, as lower to mid 80s are expected in the Hudson Valley from the Capital District southward. The cold front should be east of our region by mid/late Monday evening, with cold/dry advection commencing with breezy northwest winds developing. There could be a few lingering showers over mainly higher terrain areas as an upper level disturbance moves through just behind the cold front. Otherwise, it will become much cooler an less humid Monday night. Dry, but cool/windy conditions expected for Tuesday, as high pressure remains west of our region over the central/upper Great Lakes and low pressure slowly tracks eastward across the Canadian Maritimes. This will result in a fairly strong pressure gradient for this time of year. Northwest winds will become rather gusty once better mixing occurs by late morning and through the daylight hours. Gusts of 30-40 mph will be common, especially across favored higher terrain areas and the Capital District into the Berkshires. Temperatures will be much cooler than Monday, with 50s and 60s for highs. && .LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/... Extended period will feature active weather as warm front/stationary front remains nearby. The period begins on Tuesday night with cool cyclonic flow as a strong low pressure system pulls away from New England. 12Z Wednesday, 850mb temps range from -2.5C over northern areas to +2.5C over southern areas. Lows forecast in the 30s and 40s. Winds look to stay just breezy enough during the night to preclude frost development, but sheltered upland valleys that decouple from the wind will probably see frost. The growing season will have started for all of the Albany Forecast Area by Wednesday, so some frost advisories possible for Wed Morning. The rest of Wednesday looks fair, with just some increasing high clouds late as a warm front approaches. Highs on Wednesday in the 60s to around 70. Thursday and Friday look unsettled as a warm front tries to push through but gets hung up over the area. Showers and thunderstorms possible. Lows Thursday in the 40s to around 50 and highs mid 60s to mid 70s. Lows Friday mainly in the 50s and highs mainly in the 70s. Area may be in the warm sector on Saturday, but with a cold front approaching from the northwest, still a chance for showers and thunderstorms. Lows Saturday in the 50s with highs in the 70s to around 80. && .AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... A warm front will continue lifting north of the TAF sites this afternoon. A cold front will pass through the TAF sites Monday afternoon. Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop this afternoon, with greatest chances at KALB and KGFL between roughly 20Z/Sun and 00Z/Mon. Brief periods of IFR/LIFR conditions will occur within any heavier showers/thunderstorms. For tonight, additional scattered showers and thunderstorms will remain possible, with best chances again at KALB and KGFL, especially between roughly 07Z-12Z/Mon. Outside of any showers/thunderstorms, areas of MVFR Cigs may develop, with IFR possible. On Monday, after any lower clouds burn off, expect isolated to scattered showers/thunderstorms to develop toward and after 18Z/Mon, as a cold front approaches. Winds will be mainly south to southwest this afternoon at 8-12 KT, with some gusts of 20-25 KT possible, especially at KALB and KPSF. South winds will continue tonight at generally 5-10 KT. Through 18Z/Monday, south to southwest winds will increase to 8-12 KT with some gusts over 20 KT possible. Winds will be much stronger, and variable in direction in and near any thunderstorms. Outlook... Monday Night: Low Operational Impact. Breezy Slight Chance of SHRA. Tuesday: Moderate Operational Impact. Windy NO SIG WX. Tuesday Night: Moderate Operational Impact. Windy NO SIG WX. Wednesday: No Operational Impact. NO SIG WX. Wednesday Night: No Operational Impact. NO SIG WX. Thursday: Low Operational Impact. Slight Chance of SHRA...TSRA. Thursday Night: Moderate Operational Impact. Chance of SHRA...TSRA. Friday: Low Operational Impact. Slight Chance of SHRA...TSRA. && .FIRE WEATHER... A warm front will lift northward across the region today, ushering in a warmer and more humid air mass this afternoon. Chances for showers and thunderstorms will also increase, mainly north and west of the Capital District. A few of the storms may be severe. Additional showers and a few thunderstorms will spread eastward across the area tonight, followed by more widespread showers and strong to severe thunderstorms associated with a cold front passage on Monday. Much cooler and drier air will filter in Monday night into Tuesday, with windy conditions developing. Relative humidity values will drop to minimum values of between 55 and 65 percent this afternoon, increasing to maximum values of around 90 to 100 percent tonight. Minimum RH values will be around 45 to 55 percent Monday afternoon. Winds today and tonight will be southerly between 5 to 15 mph. Winds on Monday will shift to the southwest and increase to 10 to 20 mph, with gusts to around 30 mph. && .HYDROLOGY... Some showers and a few thunderstorms will be possible this morning along a northward advancing warm front. Then, a break is expected late morning to early afternoon, before another round of showers and storms moves in, especially north and west of the Capital District later this afternoon into the evening. With increasing humidity levels, any storms will be capable of heavy downpours leading to localized urbanized/low-lying area flooding. However, storms should be fast moving so flash flooding is not expected. Additional rounds of showers and a few thunderstorms will continue tonight into Monday ahead of an along a cold front approaching from the west. Moisture anomalies will still be relatively high, so there is a continued chance for locally heavy rain within any convection. Basin average rainfall amounts will vary significantly due to convective nature of the precipitation. Locally greater than 1 inch will be possible where thunderstorm activity is maximized. Areas north and west of Albany are expected to see multiple rounds of during this time. Drier weather returns Monday night through Wednesday as high pressure builds back in. The next chance of showers arrives later in the week with the approach of a warm front.
