.SYNOPSIS...
A few isolated showers and thunderstorms are possible later
this afternoon and tonight. Convection will affect most of the
area into Saturday morning, and there will be another shot at
stronger thunderstorms in Northeast PA and the western Catskills
Saturday. Conditions dry out Saturday night into the rest of
the weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
6 PM Update...

Increased PoPs across parts of NE PA and into Sullivan County NY
this evening as a few thunderstorms will be pushing through the
area over the next 1 to 2 hours. No other changes area needed at
this time.

335 PM update...
Main concerns in the near term are focused on the showers
expected tonight and the potential for a few thunderstorms this
evening through the overnight, and again early Saturday
afternoon.

Weak cyclonic synoptic pattern is the setup across the
Northeast/mid Atlantic region this afternoon with two embedded
short waves starting to phase together. The southern wave is
tapping into several thousand J/kg of SB CAPE from WV into
southeast PA with a corridor of strong to severe thunderstorms
tracking slowly to the east. The northern branch wave has more
deep layer shear associated with it, but a minimal amount of
instability, so the line of convection from southern MI into
southern Ontario is narrow and much weaker. Ahead of this line
of storms is some weak convective rain showers...which should
spread into central NY before 7 PM. There is also the potential
for a few stray showers or storms to pulse up across ne PA and
into the southern tier or wrn Catskills of NY during this time.
A wedge of drier air aloft and weak mid level lapse rates should
keep most of the convection relatively suppressed.

The main time period of showers and weak storms will be between
11 PM to 5 AM when the southern wave gets drawn north and the
primary upper short wave/500mb vort max passes through the
region. The main threats with any storm that does form will be
gusty winds and heavy downpours, but the environment should be
quite marginal given the time of day and the fact that the wave
is very broad with weak upper level support.

The surface front is currently hanging back across the northern
Ohio Valley and southeastern Great Lakes and is expected to
move to the east tonight into Saturday morning. The air behind
the front will be slightly cooler and drier...and the location
of the front will be important in determining where the early
Saturday afternoon convection initiates. At this time the front
looks to be farther to the east than previously
thought...stretching from eastern NY into central PA around mid
morning Saturday. As the front moves east into the afternoon
there should be some convection initiating around the Poconos
and then quickly moving east out of the area. There is a low
chance that some of the storms could become strong to severe in
this area.

Later in the day Saturday conditions will clear out
significantly as the drier air moves in. Temperatures on Sat
will warm into the upper 70s and lower 80s...and then drop down
into the 50s with quiet weather as high pressure starts to build
in from the west.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
240 PM Update...
The short term is looking quiet weather wise with the axis of
an upper level trough moving through Saturday night into Sunday.
A surface high building in keeps the region dry Saturday night
through Monday. With dry air in place there will be a large
spread in the high and low temperatures with near average highs
in the upper 70s and low 80s and seasonably cool lows in the low
to mid 50s.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
240 PM Update...
The long term is a little more complicated to decipher what
will happen. What is certain is that a strong ridge of high
pressure will build into the central US with a trough setting up
over New England. A ring of fire set up is likely with this
pattern and if we get under the jet stream, then mid to late
next week will be warm and humid with frequent chances of
thunderstorms. Then of course being north we will be seeing
similar weather as to what we have been seeing with cool and
dry, then south will be hot and humid and mostly dry. As of now,
looking at the ensemble means, we will be very close to the
ring of fire so at least a chance of precipitation was included
region wide at least in the afternoons. The GEFS has trended
towards a stronger ridge in the central US and has pushed the
edge of the ridge farther to the NE which does give us a better
chance of storms later in the week but will have to watch if the
trend continues. Temperatures were kept with the NBM mean for
now though there is a decent amount of spread between the 25%
and 75% for temperatures and from Tuesday onward.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

A cold front will push through the region tonight. Restrictions
can be expected in showers and thunderstorms overnight,
especially across Central NY. Amendments will likely be needed
at times through the overnight hours, and this will depend on
exact timing of showers and thunderstorms. Most of the rain
showers will come to an end near 12Z on Saturday. Conditions
improve to VFR and winds begin to gust 10 to 15 kt after 15Z.

Outlook...

Saturday Night through Wednesday...Mainly VFR but
afternoon/evening showers and storms cannot be ruled out.
