Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
207 PM EDT Sun Aug 29 2021

.SYNOPSIS...
Muggy and very warm this afternoon with showers and thunderstorms
ahead of a cold front. Storms end from west to east by early Monday
with a drier and less humid airmass pouring into the region.
Seasonable temperatures and dry for the vast majority of the region
through the rest of the work week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/...
Firmly in the warm sector this afternoon with SBCAPE pushing
above 2K J/KG with showers and storms blossoming inland away
from the lakes. With PWATS in the neighborhood of 2.0 inches
storms will have the potential to produce very heavy rainfall.
With that said, most storms are moving slowly along but if
training occurs, especially along any boundaries, there will be
the potential for flash flooding. Have continues to mention
heavy rain from thunderstorms within the forecast.

Beyond the storm activity its very warm and humid this afternoon.
Heat index values peaking in the low 90s, very close to advisory
levels. However, with storms blossoming around the area and the
increase in cloud cover we likely have peaked for the day. None the
less, its a very warm and humid day. Highs in the 80s near 90F.

Convection will briefly wane with the setting sun this evening. A
surface low crossing central Quebec tonight will push a cold front
towards our region late tonight. Ahead of this cold front showers
and thunderstorms are expected to form again with a line of storms
reaching much of the region in the last few hours of the night. The
0-6 km bulk wind shear vectors continue to remain weak within this
near zonal flow aloft. The primary threat for storms will again be
heavy rainfall.

Monday, showers and storms will diminish from west to east through
the morning hours as the front exits the region. A cooler and
progressively drier airmass will then filter in across the region
for the rest of the day. Highs anticipated in the upper 70s to low
80s with less humidity.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
A cold front will push south of the area Monday night, ushering
in a cooler and less humid air mass. Nighttime temperatures
will drop into the upper 50s to lower 60s.

Zonal westerly flow on Tuesday, with mainly rain-free conditions.
The only exception is across the Western Southern Tier where an
afternoon shower or thunderstorm can't be ruled out due to the
closer proximity to the stalled front. Winds will shift to the
northeast Tuesday night as strong surface high pressure builds
across Ontario province.

After this, the remnants of Ida will track across the mid-Atlantic
states around Wednesday. Model guidance continues to show strong
high pressure to our north will keep the tropical remnants to the
south of the forecast area, but there will be a very sharp gradient
with significant rainfall possible just south of the NY/PA state
line. There's little doubt that most of the area will remain rain-
free, with a small chance the Western Southern Tier will get clipped
by some rain Wednesday. Otherwise, there will be a cool
northeasterly flow due to the pressure gradient between the strong
high pressure system and the remnant low passing to our south and
east. High temperatures will only range from the upper 60s to lower
70s on Wednesday.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
An upper level trough across New England on Thursday will slide
east with a ridge building across the lower Great Lakes through
Friday. Meanwhile, surface high pressure will drift east across
the area which will provide a continuation of dry weather. It
will be cooler, but generally comfortable, with highs ranging
from the upper 60s to mid 70s Thursday and Friday.

Over the weekend, a shortwave will dig across Ontario province with
a series of weak frontal boundaries potentially crossing the region.
There's some model disagreement if there will be a warm frontal
passage ahead of a cold front or just a cold front. Either way,
Saturday should be mainly rain-free with just a small chance for
showers Saturday night and Sunday. It will be slightly warmer, with
highs in the 70s over the weekend. There's some potential it could
be 5 degrees warmer (or cooler) than forecast depending on the
progression of the warm front.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Unstable environment supporting scattered to numerous showers and
thunderstorms inland from the lakes. Theses storms will bring brief
reductions(MVFR/IFR) and possibly gusty winds to area terminals
into this evening.

Convection will wane a bit this evening, then another round of
storms will be likely just ahead of a cold front overnight.
Again, brief reductions will be possible with any storms.

Patches of fog and low stratus are possible across the hills of
SW NYS (KJHW) overnight.

Monday, showers and storms will clear area terminals from west to
east by mid morning with VFR conditions resuming areawide.

Outlook...

Monday...VFR to MVFR with showers and thunderstorms likely.

Monday night through Thursday...mainly VFR. Patchy valley fog
possible across the Southern Tier each morning.

&&

.MARINE...
Light winds and wave action (1-3 feet) on area lakes through
this evening. There is also a chance of a stray storm, mainly
on Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River valley.

Tonight, light Winds increase ahead of a cold front. The
southwesterly wind flow tonight will keep most of the higher
waves towards the Canadian waters and though winds will
potentially reach advisory levels, the higher waves will
generally remain just offshore, save for the very far eastern
shoreline of Lake Ontario.

Winds remain elevated on Lake Ontario Monday while becoming
westerly. This will likely produce a narrow window of small craft
conditions on the eastern end of the lake. However, on lake Erie
winds will diminish while becoming westerly and likely won't meet
small craft conditions.

&&

NY...None.
MARINE...None.
