Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
1128 PM EDT Sun Jun 20 2021

.SYNOPSIS...
Multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms possible for the region
tonight and Monday as a strong area of low pressure tracks to
the north. Windy conditions expected across the Niagara
Frontier Monday while scattered severe thunderstorms are
possible with the potential for gusty winds and isolated
tornadoes Monday afternoon into evening.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
Regional radar shows showers and storms developing across northeast
Ohio, northwest Pennsylvania and southern New York tonight. This is
associated with a boundary that extends from northern Illinois to
southern New England tonight. Storms will track north across western
NY overnight.

Attention turns upstream with a potent shortwave trough and cold
front across the upper Midwest and a MCS across southern Michigan
that are driving convection. A large area of rain with embedded
thunderstorms will track across southern Ontario and western Lake
Erie late tonight. Elevated instability remains across western NY.
Per the 00z Buffalo sounding, steep low-level lapse rates with dry
air in the mid-levels will continue the risk for thunderstorm
development overnight. Isolated severe storms are possible overnight
across western NY. Latest CAM guidance suggests scattered to
numerous coverage of showers and thunderstorms overnight. After
daybreak any showers and thunderstorms will track across Lake
Ontario into north central NY. Lower confidence in coverage and
intensity east of Lake Ontario as we get into the early morning
hours. SPC has western NY in a marginal risk, with a slight risk for
severe weather across far Western NY through 8 AM Monday.

The more significant severe weather risk is for Monday afternoon
through early evening. It looks like most of the area will be
in the warm sector dry slot Monday morning, but then storms will
develop along a pre-frontal trough around mid- day and move
west to east across the area. There's a significant risk for
bowing segments as these storms, with embedded supercells and
even isolated tornados possible based on the strong wind shear
which will be in place. The area of greatest concern is roughly
east of a Jamestown to Rochester to Watertown line since trough
will move through later in the day when there's more instability
in place. Lake shadowing may also lower (but not eliminate) the
risk for strong thunderstorms across the Niagara Frontier.

PWATs will also increase to around 2 inches, with dew points
approaching 70F. This will make it feel very moist and
uncomfortable, and also will pose the risk for heavy rainfall in
any thunderstorms. Storms should be moving, which will limit the
potential flooding, but flash ponding is a threat with flooding
possible if any training occurs. Greatest rainfall amount are
expected east of Lake Ontario where the system will be moving a
bit slower.

Winds will also be gusty outside of the thunderstorms. NAM BUFKIT
shows well aligned flow, with the potential for gusts to 50 mph across
the Niagara Frontier on Monday. Peak gusts will depend on how
much clearing occurs during the day since the sunshine would
allow for better mixing.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
Convection from the prefrontal trough will likely wind down from
west to east late Monday evening. However, the break from
precipitation may be brief for some locations. Model guidance
(NAM/ECMWF/Canadian-NH) continues to hint at a weak wave developing
along the front which then moves northeast up across the Mid-
Atlantic. Have nudge POPs up a bit across the S.Tier northeast
across the Finger Lakes into the North Country. Elsewhere,
precipitation chances will likely diminish behind the front
overnight as it progresses slow east.

Tuesday, the front completely clears the area with dry weather
ensuing as sfc high pressure builds in across the eastern Great
Lakes. It will also be notably cooler behind the cold front as H850T
fall to +1C to +3C which will likely only support MaxT's in the low
to mid 60s. There will also be a modest west to northwest breeze of
15 to 20 mph which will make it feel a bit cooler.

Tuesday night, mainly clear night anticipated with winds gradually
dropping off overnight. This will allow temperatures to fall off and
we might even see a few isolated spots in the upper 30s. Otherwise,
most locations will be found in the 40s by sunrise.

Wednesday, sfc high pressure will slowly pass by to our south then
off the Northeast coast Wednesday night. Gradual warming trend will
then occur as return southerly flow develops on the western
peripheral of the high. Anticipating highs to rebound into the 70s
Wednesday. Wednesday night, not quite as cool with lows in the 40s
and to low 50s.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
High pressure and weak upper level ridging continues to pull away
from the New England coast on Thursday. Dry weather and mostly clear
conditions are expected to last through Friday morning. Daytime high
temperatures through the period will generally be in the mid 70s to
low 80s, slightly warmer in the low/mid 80s across the lower
terrain owed to weak prevailing southerly flow.

Latest model trends have come into better agreement on the majority
of the day Friday remaining dry. Model guidance is still showing
discrepancies regarding the strength and timing of a cold front
stemming from a wave of surface low pressure ahead of a slow moving
trough. This feature is expected to produce showers and
thunderstorms on Saturday, with shower chances increasing west to
east overnight Friday. The slow moving trough and frontal zone look
to be fed by ample GOMEX moisture, which will aid in bringing
beneficial rains to the area. Long range guidance is in relatively
good agreement with several waves of low pressure riding along the
boundary. Though specifics can't be pinned down this far out, this
may act to slow the progression of the boundary and keep rain
chances lingering well into Sunday.

&&

.AVIATION /04Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Attention turns to a thunderstorm complex over southern Michigan and
Lake Erie late tonight. This system will track east-northeast while
additional storms are expected to form along the New York border.
These storms will move into far western NY overnight. The potential
exists for these storms to have heavy rain and gusty winds producing
MVFR/IFR at TAF sites, mainly across western NY through 12z. Any
activity will track northeast into the north country with the
potential for sub-VFR conditions at KART. A strengthening wind field
will produce LLWS ahead of a strong area of low pressure moving into
the Upper Great Lakes.

Expect a brief dry slot Monday morning, with windy conditions, but
otherwise VFR. Then there's a risk for strong thunderstorms Monday
afternoon into early evening. Storms may produce strong gusty winds,
hail, and heavy rain.

Outlook...

Monday night...VFR to MVFR conditions with showers and
thunderstorms likely, ending from west to east.
Tuesday...Mainly VFR, but MVFR conditions possible east of Lake
Ontario where some lingering showers and thunderstorms will be
likely.
Wednesday and Thursday...VFR.
Friday...VFR/MVFR. A chance of showers.

&&

.MARINE...
South to southwest winds will increase ahead of a cold front late
tonight and Monday, especially on Lake Erie. A Small Craft Advisory
is in effect on the eastern end of Lake Erie, Upper Niagara River
and Lake Ontario from Niagara River to Hamlin Beach Monday and
Monday night.

Thunderstorms late tonight and on Monday could bring several hazards
including strong winds, hail and frequent lightning.
