Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New York NY
745 AM EDT Tue Sep 6 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
A frontal wave of low pressure develops along a nearly stationary
boundary over the region today, slowly tracking offshore
through Wednesday. High pressure then builds in for Thursday
and into next weekend followed by a frontal system approaching
from the west early next week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
Flood Watch remains in effect across the forecast area until
500 PM EDT today.

Minor adjustments to PoPs this morning, with steady rain
beginning to translate east into metro NYC and Long Island.
A widespread 1-3 inches of rainfall has already fallen across
the Lower Hudson Valley and southern CT yesterday and overnight,
with pockets of 3 to 6 inches. While RFC FFG has lowered with
this rainfall, hourly rates have generally remained relatively
low, under half an inch or so. The exception is over portions of
Middlesex and New Haven counties, where a persistent band of
heavy rain has been sitting for the last couple of hours.
Upgraded this area's advisory to a flash flood warning until
1230z (for now), with additional rain to come. Forecast largely
on track.

Surface analysis this morning has the nearly stationary boundary
draped right through the area, meandering between Long Island
and southern Connecticut. North of this, moisture continues to
stream up and over the boundary, allowing a large shield of rain
to persist overnight. Aloft, the mid-level ridge gets shunted
south today as a trough digs into the Northeast. This will help
force the front south as the day progresses. A shortwave back
over West Virginia tracks east as the trough digs, with
cyclogenesis occurring over the Mid- Atlantic. As a frontal wave
of low pressure develops and tracks east, steady rain moves
back into the region later this morning and afternoon, with
areas of embedded heavy rain.

The exact placement of this low development will be critical in
determining the axis of heavy rainfall. There is evidence of
strong frontogenetic forcing setting up just north of the low
track along with a coupled dual jet structure. This time though
the axis looks to be farther south across NE NJ, NYC, and LI.
Instability is weak, so while a rumble of thunder isn't completely
out of the question, have omitted an explicit mention in the
forecast for now. Thus, this will be mainly a moderate to
occasionally heavy rain event over the course of the day. Deep
convection and extremely high one-hour rates are not anticipated
(around an inch an hour possible). There is a chance the axis
of heaviest rainfall occurs just south of the area.

Based on hi-res ensembles, it appears likely another 1-3 inches
of rain falls across much of the area, with localized higher
amounts. Though the rain lightens this evening, or ends all
together in some areas, scattered showers will persist through
the overnight hours.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
The upper trough will be slow to push east and lingers into
Wednesday, with the low also slow to depart to the south. As a
result, scattered showers are expected to persist into the
afternoon on Wednesday across much of the area. The placement
and speed of the departing frontal wave will help determine just
how wet the day becomes. Some of the hi-res guidance keeps the
heaviest rain just offshore, though others keep the axis a bit
farther north over Long Island. This will need to resolved as we
get closer.

What lingers on Wednesday winds down Wednesday night as the
low finally pushes far enough south and east with surface high
pressure building in from New England. A persistent easterly
flow develops in between these features, with gusts between
20-25 mph expected during the day.

With cloud cover, showers, and onshore flow, temperatures will
remain seasonably cool through Wednesday, with highs in the
lower 70s most areas. Didn't stray far from national blended
guidance with this update.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
No significant changes made to the long term with this update
and stuck fairly close to the NBM with some local adjustments. A
relatively quiet weather period is in store.

The global models have been fairly consistent the past few runs with
the upper pattern evolution for late week into the weekend. Mid and
upper trough axis slides offshore by Thursday afternoon giving way
to an amplifying ridge and increasing heights aloft toward the
weekend. At the surface, high pressure builds in from the Great
Lakes and settles over the northeast by Saturday. This will result
in a generally dry period and a gradual warmup into the weekend,
with highs reaching the low to mid 80s by Saturday and Sunday, which
is a few degrees above normal.

The global guidance has slowed the progression of the upper trough
advertised to approach the region from the west. The latest GFS now
matches the previous CMC/ECMWF with a slower closed low pushing east
early next week. Given this general agreement and trend, have kept
slight chance PoPs in Monday trending to chance later Monday and
into Tuesday.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
A frontal boundary gradually lifts north as a frontal wave
passes to the north and west. A secondary low then forms along
the Mid Atlantic states on Tuesday, passing off to the south and
east Tuesday night.

Mainly MVFR except for scattered VFR at KTEB and KLGA. LIFR at
KSWF in showers. Widespread IFR and possibly LIFR conditions
will become more widespread across the entire area by later this
morning as a steady rain develops with embedded heavier
showers.

Easterly winds will gradually pick up this morning with low pressure
passing to the south and a tightening pressure gradient. Coastal
locations will increase to 10 to 15kt, possibly even a bit stronger
depending on the low track.

 ...NY Metro (KEWR/KLGA/KJFK/KTEB) TAF Uncertainty...
Amendments are likely Tuesday with the timing of the rain and
changing of flight categories.

.OUTLOOK FOR 00Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...
.Tuesday Night...IFR with a light rain ending inland, but possibly
lingering at the coastal terminals. E/NE 10-15 G20kt at the coast.
.Wednesday...MVFR, possibly IFR especially in the morning, with a
chance of light rain. E/NE 10-15 G20kt at the coast.
.Thursday-Saturday...VFR.

can be found at: https:/www.weather.gov/zny/n90

&&

.MARINE...
Winds and seas remain below SCA levels on all forecast waters
through this afternoon.

SCA conditions are expected to develop tonight across ocean
waters for a strengthening easterly flow that will build seas to
around 5 ft, with gusts 25-30 kt. SCA issued on these waters
beginning 2z tonight, continuing through Wednesday. Added
Peconic, Gardiners, and South Shore bays to the SCA through 15z
Wed for gusts around 25 kts, lowering thereafter.

While winds may flirt with 25 kt along the eastern LI Sound
overnight into early Wednesday, confidence in coverage and
duration has led me to hold off any issuance with this update,
although this will need to be reevaluated later today.

The ocean may again approach SCA criteria Thu-Sat due to the
departing front and swell from TC Earl. The protected waters are
expected to remain below sca levels.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
A widespread additional one to three inches of rainfall, with
locally higher amounts, is expected thru Wednesday, with the
bulk of the rain falling today. Given what has already fallen,
flash flood guidance has lowered over the lower Hudson Valley
and southern Connecticut, and the additional rainfall could lead
to flooding, especially in urban and poor drainage areas, as
well as near fast responding rivers and streams.

The Weather Prediction Center continues the slight risk for
excessive rainfall through Tuesday, with a moderate risk across
the Lower Hudson Valley eastward through southern Connecticut
through tonight. There is a marginal on Wednesday. A Flood Watch
remains in effect for the entire region through 5 PM this
afternoon.

Thereafter, no hydrologic impacts are expected Thursday through
Monday.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
There is a moderate risk for rip current development through
this evening. There is a high rip current risk for Wed, as both
waves and east winds increase.

The combination of a strengthening easterly flow and the
approach of a full moon late week could lead to episodes of
minor coastal flooding, especially along the south shore of LI
and NYC. This may begin as early as Wednesday night's high tide
and persist into the upcoming weekend due to a building easterly
swell from distant tropical cyclone Earl.

The swell from distant TC Earl could also bring dangerous rip
currents to the ocean beaches at the end of the week, as well.
