National Weather Service Binghamton NY
328 PM EDT Sun Jul 24 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
The first round of thunderstorms will move in this afternoon
and continue through the night. Some storms this evening will
produce damaging wind gusts. Locally heavy rainfall will be
possible tonight across portions of Central New York as a slow
moving cold front approaches the area. Showers will diminish
from west to east on Monday, and milder and drier weather is
expected by Tuesday and Wednesday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
320 PM update...
Main concerns in the near term are focused on the potential for
severe thunderstorms this afternoon/evening and the possibility
for some persistent heavy downpours into the overnight hours
that could lead to some isolated flash flooding issues. The heat
and humidity will also be of concern for a couple more hours.

The Heat Advisory currently in effect will likely be canceled
early due to the incoming increasing cloud cover and the showers
and storms. Heat indices will top out in the 90s.

A Severe Thunderstorms Watch is currently in effect until 10
PM.

Upper level trough over the Great Lakes will continue to
amplify and dig to the east across the Northeast US through
today as the air mass out ahead of the wave destabilizes and
creates a favorable environment for deep convection. ML CAPE has
increased to 500-1000 J/kg across the southern tier of NY and
into parts of ne PA. A layer of strong winds aloft remains
situated northwest of Lakes Erie and Ontario, which is placing
the stronger shear to the north. The overlapping area of central
NY and the northern tier of PA will become the most favorable
area for strong to severe storms this afternoon into the
evening.

Current regional radar imagery shows the deep convection over
north central PA starting to bleed north into the central
southern tier. There is a belt of strong winds in the 1-3km AGL
layer...which should be able to mix down to the surface fairly
easily as the thunderstorm cold pool descends to the surface.
The threat for strong damaging winds is the main concern. This
first round of storms is expected to grow and expand to the
east/northeast with some small bowing segments scattered across
the region producing brief wet microbursts.

There could be a break in the convection after 9-10 PM this
evening before the second round of convection...likely
elevated...along the incoming short wave pushes east across the
region. There should still be a ribbon of deep moisture just
ahead of the upper wave and surface front...which will be able
to interact with 500-1000 J/kg of elevated instability to
trigger another broad area of convection that will transition
slowly across the region through parts of the overnight hours.
There is still a lot of uncertainty with respect to the
placement, timing and intensity of the rain. The threat for
severe storms should be limited due to most of the convection
being elevated...but the persistent rain with potentially heavy
rainfall rates may lead to some pockets of flash flooding
issues.

Rainfall should taper off west to east Monday morning, but may
refire briefly over the Poconos late Monday afternoon within a
lingering area of instability, but move quickly out of the area
and leave the entire area dry by the afternoon. Temperatures
will be much more comfortable on Monday with highs only in the
upper 70s to mid 80s...and dew points in the 50s and lower 60s.
High pressure builds in Monday night with quiet weather and
patchy valley fog developing as temperatures fall into the 50s
and lower 60s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
200 PM Update...

A surface high and co-located upper ridge will allow for dry weather
Tuesday and Tuesday night. In the wake of Monday's cold front,
temperatures will return to more or less seasonal values, with highs
in the upper 70s to lower/mid 80s and Tuesday night lows in the 50s
and lower 60s.

However, a period of wet and unsettle weather will begin Wednesday.
Wet and unsettled weather will return for the remainder of the
forecast period. Wednesday, the upper ridge begins to move out,
while a sprawling upper low moves over Ontario and starts to drag a
cold front into the upper Great lakes. This will touch off a period
of warm air advection into Wednesday amid southwesterly flow, and
thus chances for showers and thunderstorms work back in. Wednesday
may also be our warmest day of the week, with highs well into the
80s area-wide.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
200 PM update

Unsettled weather continues the rest of the work week before we dry
out again for Saturday.

Wednesday night, the upper low over Canada starts to occlude, which
will cause the approaching cold front to slow or even stall out west
of our area. There may be some dynamical support to enhance precip
chances into early Thursday as a weak shortwave rotates around the
parent upper low still to our northwest. The upper trough finally
begins to dig in later Thursday into Friday, with the approaching
cold front keeping in chances for showers and storms through most of
Friday before the cold front finally moves through sometime during
the day. Models continue to trend drier, with higher PWATs closer to
2in now to our southeast and ensemble guidance showing a half inch
or lower for most of the area. Dry weather returns into the weekend
with a surface high building over the region.

Temperatures remain more or less seasonal through the rest of the
forecast period, though Thursday may be warmer compared to Friday
and Saturday ahead of the cold front. Expect highs generally ranging
in the upper 70s to mid 80s each day with lows in the upper 50s to
lower 60s.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A batch of mid level clouds swept through this morning, but
additional clearing has returned and the air mass is expected to
continue to destabilize through the afternoon. An incoming
upper wave will interact with the instability to trigger a round
of scattered strong to severe thunderstorms into the early
evening. Behind the convection a more prolonged period of
showers with localized heavy rain is expected overnight. Expect
brief IFR or LIFR due to visby in heavier afternoon
thunderstorms, and localized damaging wind gusts possible.
Ceilings may trend close to MVFR overnight, especially over
northern areas near an approaching cold front. Conditions will
improve to VFR after 14Z Monday as the drier air moves in. Winds
will generally be 10 to 15 kt from the southwest today and then
shift to the west around 5 kt tonight and then to the w/nw by
Monday morning with gusts back around 15 kt.

Outlook...

Monday afternoon...Generally VFR conditions for NY terminals,
but restrictions are possible in a few afternoon showers or
storms around AVP.

Monday night through Wednesday...mainly VFR. Possible valley
fog at ELM.

Thursday and Friday...Next chance of showers and storms with
associated restrictions possible.
