Area forecast discussion, Jul 11, 3:43 PM EDT, 5 hours 27 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Binghamton NY 343 PM EDT Thu Jul 11 2019 .SYNOPSIS... A cold front will move east and cross the region, bringing showers and thunderstorms this afternoon and tonight. Somewhat cooler air will arrive Friday with lingering showers. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/... 330 PM Update... Showers and storms continue across our eastern zones this afternoon, but a brief lull in the majority of the activity is expected through the early evening. However, with CAPE up to 2000-3000 j/kg, any storms that can develop over the next several hours would still have the potential to produce strong wind gusts and heavy downpours. With PWATS up to 1.5-2.0 in today, locally heavy downpours will be possible, which could cause localized flooding issues. The greatest concern for flooding would be across NE PA and portions of the eastern Southern Tier and western Catskills, where heavy downpours have already occurred so far today. Convection lingers into the night ahead of the approaching front, with a line of convection in Ontario province expected to move into western NY into the evening. With the pre- frontal environment still quite favorable for strong storms this afternoon and into the early evening, we will continue to keep in the risk for strong to severe wind gusts and heavy downpours through 3Z as this line moves through. Thunder tapers off through 6Z, then only showers are expected to linger overnight. Rain should wind down by Friday afternoon, with more breaks in the clouds developing throughout the day as temperatures starting in the 60s reach highs in the mid 70s to near 80F. Temperatures quickly drop back into the upper 50s and low 60s under increasingly clear skies Friday night, with some patchy fog possible. && .SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... 230 PM Update... A weak surface front will drop into the area Saturday evening. This is with an upper level trough dropping southeast into the northeast U.S. Unlike total winds and wind shear will be good but the instability will be weak. Cape only gets to a hundred but deep wind shear at 40 kts. Moisture will be lacking and mostly Saturday afternoon and evening. Isolated showers and maybe a thunderstorm is possible mostly in CNY closer to the better forcing and cold air aloft. Highs in the 80s and lows around 60. H&& .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... 230 PM Update... High pressure builds into the Great Lakes Sunday with dry and cooler air. The high is over NY/PA Monday then slowly moves off the coast Tuesday. Heat and humidity slowly builds as highs around 80 Sunday rise into the mid and upper 80s Tuesday. Lows Sunday night in the 50s rise well into the 60s. Tuesday weak short wave energy moves through in a zonal flow. The big question is how far north remnants of Barry will get late week. For now models have it to the east coast Thursday. Tropical moisture moves in starting Tuesday but with not much of a trigger to set thunderstorms off. Wednesday and Thursday with the deeper moisture showers and thunderstorms will be scattered. && .AVIATION /20Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... We continue to see MVFR conditions across BGM and AVP over the next couple of hours as ceilings remain somewhat restricted in the wake of earlier showers and storms. Chances for showers and storms increase for the late afternoon and evening hours, with occasional MVFR conditions across all TAF sites in storms. Wind gusts around 16kts are possible at AVP over the next couple of hours, otherwise southerly winds should stay generally below 10kts the rest of the afternoon. Ceilings drop back to fuel alternate and finally IFR across most TAF sites overnight, with some patchy fog also possible at ELM. Outlook... Friday...ceilings improve to mainly MVFR for the daytime hours and finally VFR by the evening. Saturday through Monday...Mainly VFR, though a period of valley fog will be possible early each morning at KELM. Tuesday...Restrictions possible in showers and storms during the afternoon. && .BGM WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... PA...None. NY...None. && SYNOPSIS...DGM NEAR TERM...HLC SHORT TERM...TAC LONG TERM...TAC AVIATION...HLC
