Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Buffalo NY
155 AM EDT Tue Jul 5 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
A warm front will bring clouds and possibly some showers
overnight. Low pressure will then cross the Great Lakes
Tuesday, producing areas of showers and scattered thunderstorms
across the region. Some areas will receive beneficial rainfall,
but the higher rainfall amounts will be uneven in coverage. High
pressure will then build into the Great Lakes behind this
system, with a return to dry weather Wednesday and Thursday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
The key feature to our forecast is an MCS which is across
southern Lake Michigan early this morning. Most model guidance
tracks this to our south, however some models (the 00Z NAM for
example) have this clipping the Southern Tier. Given its
location and trajectory it seems highly unlikely that it will
move across the Southern Tier, so discounted the NAM and
followed models which initialized this feature in the proper
location.

A mid level trough will across the eastern Great Lakes this
morning, before reaching New England and the Mid Atlantic by
Tuesday evening. In a general sense, the passing trough will
produce a period of large scale ascent as height falls spread
across the region, with some added support from the right
entrance region of a 100 knot 250MB jet. This is likely to
produce some showers, and possibly a thunderstorm this morning.
This trough will move into Central NY this afternoon, bringing
showers and a better chance of thunderstorms due to a more
favorable diurnal timing which will allow a bit more instability
to develop. Rainfall amounts will be very uneven (which is almost always
the case with convectively driven summer rain). A few areas may
see beneficial amounts of over 0.50", while other locations see
very little.

Following this first area of showers and scattered
thunderstorms, expect additional isolated to widely scattered
convection during the afternoon and evening, developing on lake
breeze boundaries and other differential heating boundaries.

The bulk of showers and thunderstorms will exit the area by early
this evening. That said, the surface cold front will sag south
across the eastern Great Lakes overnight, and with a moist low
level airmass still in place there may still be a few spotty
showers or isolated thunderstorms lingering overnight.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
This looks to be a relatively quiet period. High pressure across the
Upper Great Lakes Wednesday will gradually slide through the Lower
Great Lakes into New England by Thursday, as a quasi-stationary
frontal boundary resides across the Ohio valley. Some cloudiness
Wednesday morning (south of Lake Ontario) will give way to
increasing sunshine from north to south through the day. High
temperatures not far from normal, in the mid to upper 70s.

Radiational cooling will support lows in the 50s, perhaps a few
upper 40s Wednesday night.

Model trends for Thursday and Thursday night leading toward
maintaining the active convective track across the Ohio Valley (near
the frontal boundary), with the outside chance of some of this
activity lifting into the Southern Tier with the remainder of the
area influenced by residual dry and stable air.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
On Friday a frontal boundary lingering a bit to our south across the
Ohio Valley and mid-Atlantic states will continue to serve as a
conduit for areas of convection. While most of this activity will
remain to our south...a few widely scattered showers and isolated
thunderstorms will remain possible across the Southern Tier and far
interior portions of the Finger Lakes. Otherwise fair dry weather
can be expected...along with seasonable highs in the upper 70s to
lower 80s.

After that Canadian high pressure will gradually settle across our
region next weekend...before slipping off the mid Atlantic coast on
Monday. This will result in another gorgeous weekend...with only an
outside chance of a few showers then returning on Monday as another
system potentially approaches from the northwest (though it should
be noted that the GFS/ECMWF are slower with this system...which
would allow dry weather to remain intact areawide). The somewhat
cooler and drier airmass associated with the surface high will
result in daily highs settling back into the mid to upper 70s next
weekend...with readings then bouncing back into the lower to mid 80s
on Monday as a southwesterly flow of warmer air sets up on the
backside of the departing surface ridge. Meanwhile...nightly lows
will be mainly in the 50s...with some upper 40s possible across
interior portions of the Southern Tier/North Country Saturday night.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
VFR will prevail through 12Z. A few showers may move in, but
these will fall from a VFR cloud deck.

A mid level trough will move across WNY this morning and into
Central NY this afternoon. This will provide a focus for
showers, and possibly some thunderstorms. Latest trajectory
suggests MCS across southern Lake Michigan will track to the
south of our forecast area, so will discount models which do not
initialized this feature properly (including the 00Z NAM).

Expect mainly MVFR flight conditions with and following the
passage of the trough as low level moisture increases. Scattered
showers and isolated thunderstorms are also possible this
afternoon, focusing on lake breeze boundaries.

Any of the heavier showers will produce MVFR/brief IFR conditions.
In addition, a widespread area of lower end MVFR CIGS with some IFR
possible (especially higher terrain) will develop late today
through this evening.

Outlook...

Wednesday and Thursday...Mainly VFR.
Friday...Mainly VFR but local/inland MVFR with chc -SHRA/TSRA.
Saturday...VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
Winds and waves are expected to remain below Small Craft Advisory
criteria overnight. Low pressure and a mid level trough will
cross the eastern Great Lakes Tuesday, bringing a chance of a
few thunderstorms to the region. In addition, southwest winds
will increase on Lake Erie Tuesday, with winds and waves
possibly reaching Small Craft Advisory criteria.

&&

.BUF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NY...None.
MARINE...None.
