Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Binghamton NY
143 PM EDT Tue Jul 6 2021

.SYNOPSIS...
Scattered showers and thunderstorms this afternoon, with some
storms producing gusty winds and heavy rainfall. Weather will
become quiet overnight as storms move out later this evening.
Showers and thunderstorms are again possible Wednesday and
Thursday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
1240 PM Update...

Storms have popped up across CNY, a little earlier than original
thinking. This update just focused on the PoPs through this
afternoon and into tomorrow. Again, adjusted based on what CAMs
are showing for activity. No one model has quite as much
activity compared to what is present currently, so will have to
see how they handle things moving forward. Still favoring the
NAMNEST and RAP as far as coverage is concerned. Also, significantly
reduced PoPs overnight so there are no chances. More adjustments
could be needed during the afternoon forecast update.

945 AM Update...

Made some changes to PoPs as original timing of the forecast
was a little slower than the CAMs, though there is some
uncertainty between the model guidance. A blend of them was
used, though focus was on NAMNest, RAP, and HREF as those seemed
to be in somewhat agreement with each other. This sped the
timing up by an hour or two with all activity out of the area by
late this evening. Also continued the mention of heavy rain and
gusty winds as conditions continue to look favorable to support
some strong storm activity today. Other changes involved
touching up temps and winds through early this afternoon.

Previous Discussion...

Thunderstorms moving off Lake Ontario
will track across our far northern forecast area through the
overnight hours. These storms are tapping elevated instability
and dry air aloft, and will produce gusty winds.

Storms will taper off for the most part during the first half
of Tuesday as temperatures push into the upper-80s. Heat indices
will exceed 90 degrees in the urban valleys, especially from
the Southern Tier southward into PA. Instability will increase
during the afternoon, with CAPE values of 1500 j/kg or higher
developing. Shear will be minimal in a weak flow environment,
and this will increase the potential for heavy downpours, slow
moving storms, and localized flooding.

We don't anticipate Tuesday night will be active as Monday
night, but there is always the potential for an upstream complex
to form and slide across our counties. We're maintaining slight
to chance POPs over our northern and western forecast areas.

Another round of strong storms will affect the region Wednesday.
Again, it may be fairly quiet early on before CAPE values push
above 1500 j/kg during the afternoon. Bulk shear values are
coming in at 30-35 knots on the NAM12, healthier than Tuesday's
shear profile. This will increase the concern for organized
storms with gusty winds and heavy downpours.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
Active weather will continue through much of the short term period;
with the potential for locally heavy rain and scattered strong
thunderstorms; especially on Thursday.

Wednesday Night: Upper level trough begins to further amplify across
the Great Lakes region, with a weak surface low trekking across
northern Lower Michigan. A warm front will slide north through CNY
and NE PA, with chances for showers and a few thunderstorms overnight.
Deep layer 0-6km shear is around 30 kts, MLCAPE 1000-1500 J/Kg
and pwats are progged to be around 1.75 inches...therefore a few
stronger storms with frequent lightning, gusty winds and heavy
downpours remain possible. Otherwise, it will be partly cloudy
and humid with lows in the 60s.

Thursday: This has the potential to be an active weather day, as the
approaching upper level trough begins to merge with the remnants of
Elsa, down in the Carolinas. Latest model guidance keeps PoPs in the
80-90% range for the afternoon, with rather unstable conditions, and
MLCAPE easily 1000-1800 J/Kg. With the trough moving in, there will
also be deep layer shear on the order of 25-35 kts or slightly higher.
PWATs creep up to 1.75-1.90" by late afternoon and early evening,
with some model guidance hinting at a possible PRE rainfall
setup nearby. Warm cloud layer is pushing 11k ft at times, which
is favorable for efficient rain rates. Collaborated with WPC
and surrounding WFOs with the decision to keep the Excessive
Rainfall Outlook (ERO) in the marginal category for now, due to
uncertainty in where the heaviest rain ultimately sets up.
Otherwise, Thursday should be mostly cloudy and muggy with highs
in the upper 70s to low 80s for most locations. Southerly winds
at 5-15 mph will help transport that deep, subtropical moisture
into our region.

Thursday night: Current model guidance brings the remnants of Elsa
north, right along the East Coast from the DELMARVA to near Atlantic
City NJ overnight. In this scenario the main rain shield would
just skirt the far SE areas of our CWA; with scattered to
numerous showers extending back across the rest of CNY & NE PA.
Carried Likely PoPs, with some categorical across our far
eastern zones in the current forecast. Not a lot of instability
overnight, but perhaps enough for a few embedded thunderstorms
once again. PWATS remain high, in the 1.50-1.75 inch range. Will
need to monitor the track of the remnants of Elsa closely, as a
shift westward would certainly bring the potential for heavier
rainfall into portions of our forecast area. Otherwise another
mostly cloudy and humid night with lows in the 60s.

Friday: The remnants of Elsa should be kicked north and east out of
our area by the approaching upper level trough. Current guidance has
the upper trough axis gradually sliding through on Friday. Still a
chance for lingering showers and afternoon t'storms, especially
across our eastern areas (Catskills/Poconos). Otherwise, partly
sunny, warm & still humid with highs in the upper 70s to lower 80s.

Finally drying out Friday night and slightly cooler/less humid.
Partly cloudy skies with a light northwest wind developing. Lows in
the upper 50s to lower 60s for most area.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Upper level trough flattens somewhat for Saturday, setting up a
more zonal westerly flow pattern. A weak surface high nudges in
from southern Ontario across most of CNY and NE PA. Therefore,
trended the forecast drier, under partly sunny skies. Less
humid, with dew points falling back into the 50s or low 60s by
afternoon. High temperatures are forecast to reach near average
levels, in the upper 70s to low 80s. Light northwest winds 5-10
mph. A somewhat complex weather pattern for Sunday, with model
guidance indicating some differences this far out in time. Went
a little lower than the NBM/blended model guidance for PoPs, as
the latest operational guidance (00z ECMWF and 00z GFS) seem to
be hinting at a wave mainly staying south or getting into NE PA,
but not CNY. However, again, considering the uncertainty and
incorporating the ensemble guidance, still decided it was best
to keep a lower end chance PoP areawide Sunday afternoon
(25-40%)...with the higher chances in NE PA. Otherwise, it is
shaping up to be a rather typical mid-summer day, with partly
sunny skies and highs 75-85. Remaining less humid.

Early next week model guidance is showing an amplifying upper
level ridge along the East Coast extending into our area. This
is in response to a deepening trough across the upper midwest
and western Great Lakes. This should allow for another warming
trend, with humidity levels increasing. Capped PoPs in the
chance range this far out, as the NBM was suggesting likely
heading into day 7 and 8. Current thinking is for perhaps just
some scattered afternoon and evening t'storms activity around.
Also nudged the high temperatures up, blending in some of the
NBM50th guidance to get highs in the low to mid-80s.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Scattered thunderstorms are moving through CNY, impacting all NY
terminals. To cover storms that may pass the terminals, VCTS was
added through at least 22z. A TEMPO group for thunderstorms was
also added at NY terminals valid beginning at the top of the
hour for at least a couple of hours. Storms could produce gusty
winds and heavy rainfall if over a terminal. These storms could
reduce visibility. A TEMPO group was also added for AVP for as
well, but starting a few hours from now. All storm activity
should be done by this evening.

Otherwise VFR conditions will be expected during this period.
Winds will become light this evening and overnight as the
weather quiets down. Winds become gusty at BGM, ELM, and ITH
tomorrow afternoon. There could be some patchy fog tomorrow
morning, mainly ELM, but confidence was too low to include at
this time.

Outlook...

Wednesday afternoon through Friday...Daily showers and thunderstorms
possible with associated intermittent restrictions, especially
Thursday afternoon-evening.

Friday night through Saturday...Mainly VFR; small chance of a
shower/brief restriction.

Sunday...Mainly VFR; slight chance for showers/thunderstorms
and associated restrictions.
