What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this gale warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS New York, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this gale warning went out at Apr 8, 2:13 PM EDT, 1 hour 28 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 8, 2:13 PM EDT, 1 hour 28 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New York NY
213 PM EDT Wed Apr 8 2020

.SYNOPSIS...
Low pressure will pass to the east today, followed by weak high
pressure tonight. A cold front will move through on Thursday.
Associated low pressure will pull away into the Canadian
Maritimes on Friday, followed by high pressure building from the
west on Saturday. Low pressure will then approach from the west on
Sunday and impact the area Sunday night into Monday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
Expecting mainly dry conds today, but with plenty of low level
moisture trapped beneath an inversion resulting in a partly to
mostly cloudy sky today, with the 11Z RAP/HRRR showing only
potential for a shower or two across Long Island this
afternoon. Some clearing may occur late on a N-NW flow. This
will allow temperatures to rise into the upper 50s and lower
60s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
Weak ridging will result in a quiet night ahead of another
system which will impact the region during the day on Thursday.
Lows Wednesday night will be in the 40s under a partly to mostly
cloudy sky.

On Thursday, a strong shortwave will dive out of the Great
Lakes with a surface low tracking out of Canada into the
northeast. This low will drag a strong cold front through the
area, likely sometime from late morning through the mid
afternoon. A strong jet developing just to the south will
provide deep-layer shear and strong lift, however instability
continues to look marginal at this time. Even with low CAPE,
strong dynamics aloft will likely result in a line of showers
with embedded thunderstorms moving through in the early
afternoon. The biggest threat with these showers and storms
would be gusty winds.

Immediately following the frontal passage, the sky will clear
and we should mix out. BUFKIT soundings are indicating a period
of gusty winds of 30 to 35 mph during the afternoon and into the
overnight.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
To start, expect brisk conds on Fri, with isold-sct showers as
low pressure pulls away. Inland sections especially the higher
elevations could see some snow mixed in during the morning. W-NW
winds will be on the brisk side due to the departing low's
tight pres gradient, so expect winds at or near advy criteria in
the greater NYC metro area and across Long Island, and possibly
elsewhere.

High pressure then builds across Sat into Sat night. Guidance
shows more nrn stream interaction with a srn stream low pressure
system approaching for Sunday into Mon, and so have gone with
its slower trend. That guidance is also decidedly wetter and
windier, which makes sense given the strengthening offshore high
and long S fetch, at least per ECMWF. GFS fcsts a secondary low
to develop along the coast which, if it develops, would
probably result in a stout E-SE rather than S flow. Given the
very good warmth/moisture transport via either a S fetch or
enhanced convergence/lift via a secondary low, heavy rain also
looks like a good bet, with axis of heaviest rain a little to
early to know for certain.

Temps about 5-8 deg below normal on Fri, with highs in the
lower/mid 50s, will moderate somewhat on Sat to mid/upper 50s,
still slightly below avg. Temps on Sunday/Mon ahead of the
approaching low should warm up, with upper 50s to mid 60s on
Sunday, and 60s to lower 70s on Mon, highest away from the
coast.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Low pressure east of Long Island continues moving east this
afternoon with weak high pressure building over the region.
The high moves offshore tonight as a cold front approaches, then
crosses the region around midday Thursday and through the
afternoon.

Generally VFR, expect for a few locations north and east of the
NYC terminals where MVFR ceilings are possible through around
22Z. VFR through tonight, with a chance of MVFR ceilings toward
sunrise at the coastal terminals.

MVFR conditions become widespread toward 15Z with showers and a
chance of thunderstorms. Some of the thunderstorms may produce
wind gust to near 40 kt.

The northerly flow looks to be a little stronger than previously
thought and a seas breeze may not develop, or will be very late
this afternoon. Winds do diminish and a return southerly flow
develops this evening. South to southwest winds increase to 10
to 15 kt Thursday morning with gusts 20 to 25 kt. Low level wind
shear develops Thursday morning and continues into the
afternoon.

With the frontal passage winds shift to the west and increase to
15 to 23 kt with gusts 30 to 35 kt. Sustained winds and gusts
may be a few knots higher in the afternoon.

 ...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: Occasional NW wind gusts to around 20 kt
likely this afternoon. Low chance of a sea breeze. If the sea
breeze develops will be late in the day.

KLGA TAF Comments: Winds may become light and variable late
this afternoon, or remain light from the northeast. Winds shift
southerly this evening.

KEWR TAF Comments: No unscheduled amendments expected.

KTEB TAF Comments: No unscheduled amendments expected.

.OUTLOOK FOR 18Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY...
.Thu aftn...MVFR early with showers and possibly thunderstorms
especially east of the NYC terminals. LLWS early. Becoming VFR.
W/NW G30-35 kt.
.Fri...VFR with W winds 20-30kt, g35-40kt.
.Sat...VFR.
.Sun...VFR becoming MVFR with a chance of showers late in the
day and at night.
.Mon...MVFR to IFR in showers.

&&

.MARINE...
Quiet today as low pressure passes east, with only a 2-ft ocean
swell at most.

A strong frontal system will then impact the waters on Thursday,
preceded by a strengthening S flow that will likely bring at a
minimum SCA conditions to the ocean waters by late morning. This
will be short-lived though as a strong cold front works across
the waters in the afternoon with the potential for westerly
gusts to approach gale force.

As low pressure rapidly deepens over northern New England Thursday
night, westerly gales will likely develop across all waters and
continue into Friday with gusts up to 40 kt.

Winds will gradually diminish Friday night into Saturday with
SCA conditions for much of the period. High pressure will build
across the waters Saturday night.

Increasing S flow between a strengthening offshore high and
approaching low pressure may bring SCA conds to all waters Sunday
night. Some gale force wind gusts may be possible on the ocean
waters late.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Wetting rains on Thu should help limit fire growth potential on Fri
despite strong winds and low afternoon RH. With some drying out
Sat could be a day of concern, with W winds still gusting to 30
mph and min RH 20-30%.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
No hydrologic impacts are expected from the showers impacting
the area this morning.

A quarter to a half an inch of rain is expected Thursday, but
locally higher amounts could be realized. Low chance of minor
nuisance flooding on Thursday.

QPF for the low pressure system Sunday night into Mon has
trended wetter, with amts of 1-2 inches fcst. This may be
capable of causing some minor areal and small stream issues.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
High astronomical tides due to the supermoon and a positive
tidal anomaly will be factors for the total water level forecast
through Wednesday. Winds will not be strong, about a 10 kt
onshore flow or less, so tidal piling and wind forcing will not
be too much, limiting the coastal flood potential.

Hazards are as follows:

Tonight through Wednesday: Coastal flood statements across much
of the shorelines of NY Harbor, Western Long Island Sound, and
South Shore Bays. The total water level will be around 1/2 to 1
foot above astronomical tides, so about 1/2 to 1 foot of surge
during times of high tide. Isolated minor coastal flooding will
be the result.

Wednesday Night: Coastal flood advisories for the more
vulnerable coastal locations across NY Harbor, Western Long
Island Sound, South Shore Bays and SW Suffolk NY. The total
water level will be 1 to 2 feet above astronomical tides, so
about 1 to 2 feet of surge during times of high tide. Widespread
minor coastal flooding will be the result. Other nearby
locations such as Eastern Union NJ, Eastern Essex NJ, Manhattan,
Bronx, Northern Queens will get close to touching minor coastal
flood benchmarks. These less exposed coastal locations have a
coastal flood statement for Wednesday night, more of an isolated
minor coastal flood situation.

Minor coastal flooding potential remains on Thursday with
astronomical tides still being high. There will also be a
strong cold front approaching that will bring increased onshore
winds during the day. Much lower total water levels occur
Thursday night into Friday as winds strengthen out of the west,
a stronger offshore flow overall. Any lingering coastal flood
threat diminishes rapidly Thursday night.
