Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Binghamton NY
413 PM EDT Wed Jun 1 2022
.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will push through the region this evening with
showers and thunderstorms; a few could be severe. The front will
stall and remain in our vicinity Thursday, producing scattered
showers and isolated thunderstorms. High pressure finally builds
back in at the end of the week and into this weekend bringing
dry and seasonable weather.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
345 PM Update...
**Severe Thunderstorm Watch remains in effect for much the CWA
into this evening**
Conditions are becoming more unstable across the region with the
latest mesoanalysis showing 600-1200 J/Kg of MLCAPE across all
area southwest of a Syracuse to Utica line. In this same area, a
corridor of enhanced shear also exists, with effective layer
shear of 30-40 kts present over much of our CWA. In collaboration
with SPC a severe thunderstorm watch will be in effect for the
entire CWA except Oneida county until 10 PM. The main threat
will be isolated damaging winds, large hail and a tornado cannot
be ruled out...especially across our east-central counties
along the stationary frontal boundary. Heavy rainfall and
isolated instances of flash-flooding are also possible,
especially where storms train over the same locations.
As the frontal boundary slowly moves south into this evening and
first half of the overnight another round of showers and
embedded thunderstorms will move through the area; after 10 PM
the main threat from these will transition to locally heavy
downpours and some lightning. Conditions look to slowly dry out
late tonight into the predawn hours Thursday...however areas of
fog will be a good bet due to the wet ground conditions, relatively
high dew points and light winds. Overnight lows dip down into
the mid-50s to lower 60s.
It starts off generally dry for much of the area Thursday
morning, but again, there will be some lingering areas of fog.
The frontal boundary is now forecast to be a bit further south
with light northwest winds over the forecast area. Forecast
soundings are showing a lot of dry air in the mid levels of the
atmosphere and the latest CAMS/models guidance has continued to
back off on shower coverage heading into Thursday afternoon...especially
across much of CNY. Therefore, cut PoPs back to mainly slight
chance or lower for our CNY zones through 5 PM, increasing to
chance PoPs for NE PA and still some likely PoPs across the
Poconos and portions of Luzerne county. There will be some
instability around, so cannot rule out and isolated thunderstorm
as well...especially down toward the Wyoming Valley region. Not
looking for anything strong or severe at this time.
One final wave rides along the front across the Twin Tiers,
Catskills and NE PA heading into Thursday evening and Thursday
night. This will bring another round of rain and possibly some
embedded thunderstorms. This activity should eventually move
east and out of the area around or just before daybreak Friday
morning. A bit cooler for overnight lows, especially west...with
temperatures ranging from the upper 40s to mid-50s.
&&
.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
1230 PM Update...
Cooler and drier air moves in Friday behind any lingering showers
that may remain, resulting in dry conditons through the weekend.
Skies will also clear out throughout the day, leading to mostly
sunny skies. Temperatures will rise into the upper 60s to low 70s
during the day and fall into the upper 40s to low 50s at night.
Cooler air continues to move into the region on Saturday.
Temperatures across CNY will be a few degrees cooler than on Friday.
Those south of the Southern Tier will see little change. Nightly
temperatures will be in the 40s. This period will be a little breezy
as gusts of 20 to 25 mph are possible during the daytime hours.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
1230 PM Update...
No major changes to the long term forecast. There remains
uncertainty on when what happens next week as models continue to
show different solutions with the tropical system. So for now,
NBM was used for PoPs in this period, which gives a chance for
showers starting Monday and into midweek. Temperatures will be
near average, though slightly cooler at times next week.
Previous Discussion...
The cooler and dry weather continues into the weekend. The jet
stream starts to lift back north late this weekend as a
potential tropical disturbance forms. Deeper moisture begins to
advect back northward early next week so the risk of showers and
thunderstorms begin to return. If the tropical disturbance can
actually form like what the ECMWF has then ridging will dominate
most of the week with isolated showers possible with day time
heating and moisture in place. If the disturbance stays mostly
an open wave or a weak low then troughing would be more possible
with better chances of precipitation heading into mid week.
&&
.AVIATION /20Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
An area of rain and embedded thunderstorms continues to move
west to east across the NY Thruway corridor from SYR to RME,
likely through at least 22z this evening. This will keep MVFR
fuel alternate restrictions, along with occasional IFR
restrictions is any heavier rain or thunderstorms.
A cold front will produce widespread heavy showers and
thunderstorms with restrictions likely at all other terminals
as the storms track from northwest to southeast across the area
mainly between 20-24z this evening. Some storms may also contain
strong gusty winds and hail. Storms may linger near AVP until at
least 02z this evening.
Behind the front tonight, showers come to an end, but low level
moisture behind the front will bring ceiling restrictions and
possibly fog late tonight into Thursday morning. Best chance to
see fog would be locations that see heavier rainfall this
evening...and also ELM where winds may decouple in the valley.
Conditions gradually improve Thursday morning, with all taf
sites likely returning to VFR after 14-16z. A few additional
showers may develop INVOF AVP heading into the midday and
afternoon hours Thursday.
Outlook...
Thursday afternoon through Thursday night...Rain showers and
maybe an isolated thunderstorm and associated restrictions are
possible at all terminals again.
Friday through Sunday...Lingering showers possible Friday
morning, otherwise mainly VFR.
Monday...A chance of showers and isolated afternoon
thunderstorms with associated restrictions possible.
