Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New York NY
1137 AM EDT Thu Apr 9 2020

.SYNOPSIS...
Intensifying low pressure moving across upstate New York will
send a strong cold front through the region today. High pressure
will build from the west Friday through Saturday night, then
move offshore on Sunday. A complex low pressure system will
approach Sunday night and move across on Monday. A cold front
will move across on Tuesday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
Forecast is mainly on track. Showers with embedded
thunderstorms continue to track northeast over the area
associated with a warm front moving toward the area from the
southwest today. Moderate to briefly heavy rain will occur with
these showers and thunderstorms.

A closed low pressure over the northern Great Lakes will deepen as
it approaches the region today. A secondary low will then develop
and rapidly deepen as it moves into Maine. Showers develop in
multiple rounds, the first associated with a warm front late
this morning followed by a line of showers and embedded
thunderstorms with the aforementioned cold front this afternoon.

Strong dynamics aloft combined with the rapidly deepening surface
low will result in an environment favorable for severe weather. SPC
has upgraded to a Slight Risk for portions of the area. With
strong large-scale ascent, thunderstorms should develop and
quickly move in a line eastward. With strong winds in the low
and mid levels, any thunderstorm will be able to produce
damaging wind gusts and heavy downpours. A limiting factor
closer to the coast would the lack of surface based instability
mainly due to the marine influence and morning cloudiness. The
line will continue to weaken as it moves eastward across Long
Island.

The front will sweep quickly across the area this afternoon with a
tight pressure gradient setting up over the region in its wake. Cold
advection will result in deep mixing with BUFKIT profiles suggesting
wind gusts in the 35-45 mph range. Therefore have expanded the wind
advisory to cover the entire area.

High temperatures will be in the upper 50s to lower 60s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
Winds will temporarily come down this evening before strong cold
advection arrives overnight bringing a secondary surge in winds by
Friday morning. It will be a chilly night as the region remains in
cyclonic flow with a broad upper trough will be over the northeast.
Lows will drop into the 30s for most of the area and closer to 40 in
and around NYC.

On the back side of the low that is slowly moving into the Canadian
Maritimes, another vort max will move through Friday morning. This
could kick off a few rain or snow showers into the afternoon.

The biggest concern on Friday will be the winds that develop as the
pressure gradient tightens up. Strong westerly winds will gust 40-45
mph with sustained winds 25-30 mph. A wind advisory will likely be
needed.

Temperatures will remain chilly on Friday in the upper 40s to lower
50s. Temperatures by Saturday morning will once again be in the  30s.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
There will be an active upper level jet stream south of the
region Friday night into Saturday that will eventually move
northward back into the region Sunday into Sunday night. Early
next week, jet will be south of the area and move back north into
the region towards midweek.

At the surface, low pressure will be filling in as it continues
moving northward within the Canadian Maritimes Friday night.
High pressure will build in from the west Friday night into
Saturday. The pressure gradient will slowly decrease during the
time period. Weather will be dry with winds eventually becoming
less gusty.

High pressure will strengthen as it moves east Saturday night
with the local pressure tendency in the region increasing
Saturday night. The high will be moving offshore going into
Sunday and will eventually give way to an approaching complex
low pressure system approaching from the south and west. The
progression of the system will have a warm front passage
followed by a cold front passage Monday into Monday evening.

Dry weather will prevail Sunday into Sunday evening as the
atmospheric column will have to sufficiently moisten before
the commencement of rainfall ahead of this system. Rain becomes
likely late Sunday night and continues through much of Monday.
Heavy rain will be possible Monday morning with the bulk of the
rainfall occurring Monday morning into early Monday afternoon.
Rain tapers off Monday night.

Rain showers a possibility again on Tuesday into Tuesday night
with another cold frontal passage. Models show possible
stalling of the front offshore heading into Wednesday so another
chance of rain showers is forecast Wednesday as well.

Temperatures on average are forecast to be a few degrees below
normal Friday night through Saturday night, near normal Sunday,
above normal Sunday night through Monday night, and closer to
normal thereafter.

&&

.AVIATION /16Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
A strong frontal system will impact the terminals today, with an
approaching warm front this morning, followed by a cold frontal
passage early to mid afternoon.

MVFR conditions become widespread toward 14Z Thursday with
showers and a chance of thunderstorms. Some of the thunderstorms
may produce wind gust to near 40 kt. VFR returns aft 18-21Z.

A S/SE flow will increase to 10 to 15 kt with gusts 20 to 25
kt this morning. Low level wind shear develops and persists
until the cold frontal passage.

With the frontal passage winds shift to the west and increase to 15-
25 kt with gusts 30-40 kt. Gusty W flow continues tonight at
20-30 kt.

Chance of LLWS.

&&

.MARINE...
Gales on all waters today through Friday.

A strong frontal system will pass through the waters today with a
strengthening southerly flow this morning, followed by a westerly
gale developing in the afternoon. There looks to be short respite
for the first half of tonight before gales return to the waters
during the early morning hours Friday. A shot of cold air in
conjunction with deepening low pressure tracking from northern New
England into the Canadian Maritimes Thursday night into Friday will
allow gales to continue through Friday evening.

SCA gusts for all waters Saturday. Sub-SCA conditions Saturday night
into Sunday evening as high pressure moves across the waters. SCA
gusts return for all waters late Sunday night with gales on the
ocean probable again Monday with rest of waters maintaining SCA
gusts. SCA gusts linger into much of Monday night. Ocean seas
forecast of 5 to 8 ft Friday night, 3 to 5 ft Saturday morning into
early Saturday afternoon. Then below 5 ft ocean seas thereafter
through Sunday evening. Ocean seas build back up to near 6 to 11 ft
late Sunday night into early next week.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Wetting rains today should help limit fire growth potential on
Friday 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...
Rainfall of 1/4 to 1/2 inch with locally higher amounts
expected today. Low chance of minor nuisance flooding.

QPF 1-2 inches Sunday night into Monday could also cause at
least minor poor drainage flooding at that time.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
The combination of spring tides (some places needed less than
1/4 ft of positive tidal departures for minor coastal flooding)
and background tidal anomaly will have water levels exceeding
minor flood thresholds for vulnerable locations along Western
Long Island Sound, the south shore bays of western Long Island,
and along NY/NJ harbor. This all despite mostly weak wind/wave
forcing.

Astronomical tides are about 1/2 ft lower for this mornings
high tides, but strengthening SE flow ahead of an approaching
frontal system should allow for surge of 1-2 ft to develop, with
another round of widespread minor coastal flooding in the
aforementioned areas. Timing of peak winds looks to be after
high tide farther east, but if stronger winds arrive sooner,
minor coastal impacts could occur there as well.

Strong offshore flow develops before tonight high tide cycle.
Similar to Wednesday nights tide, not much surge needed to reach
minor flooding thresholds. Highest threat of minor coastal
flooding is along the south shore bays of Long Island, with
water slow to exit through the inlets. Elsewhere, a negative
surge will likely have water levels falling below minor flood
thresholds.

Breaking waves likely to build to 4-6 ft today, which will
likely cause beach erosion, but dune impacts should be minimal.

NYC NOAA Weather Radio Station KWO35 (162.55 MHz) is undergoing
its final stages of testing, and is operating at full power.
