Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New York NY
817 PM EDT Sat Jul 29 2023

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will move across this evening. High pressure will
then slowly build in from the northwest through the middle of
next week. A frontal system could impact the area late in the
week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
Severe Thunderstorm Watch remains in effect until 9 PM.

Line of convection with very little lightning but producing
strong/damaging wind gusts in a high-DCAPE environment moving
across SW CT, western Long Island and NYC attm. Some training
of cells is occurring across the far northern portion of our CT
zones, with radar estimating over an inch in spots.

The cold front will continue pushing south and east of the area
tonight with most of the convection moving offshore. Drier air
will begin working in from the north and west overnight on a
gusty NW flow. Skies may remain partly to mostly cloudy, but
temperatures likely will fall into the lower 60s inland to the
mid/upper 60s most elsewhere. The NYC metro should fall to
around 70.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
On Sunday surface high pressure will begin building in from
southern Canada. Highs will be much cooler than recent days and
actually could end up a few degrees below normal in the lower
to middle 80s. Dew points will range from the upper 50s to low
60s allowing humidity levels to be much lower.

An isolated shower is possibly Sunday night as a shortwave
rounds the base of an upper trough. Will continue with the
mention of a slight chance for a shower, but most of the area
will be dry late Sunday night. Sunday night temperatures will
fall into the upper 50s and low 60s inland and middle 60s
elsewhere.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
The upper trough axis remains overhead on Monday and high
pressure will continue building into the region. High
temperatures will range between the upper 70s to lower 80s.
Other than an isolated early morning shower, no precipitation is
currently anticipated. Next week continues to look like the
most comfortable airmass we have seen in several weeks. High
pressure will slide down from Canada Monday night through
Wednesday as an upper level trough sits over the eastern CONUS.
Embedded shortwaves will assist in reinforcing shots of cooler,
drier air. High temperatures will be in the upper 70s to lower
80s each day, which is about 5 degrees cooler than normal for
early August. Stuck close to the NBM with temperatures. Blended
in some of the MEX guidance for Tuesday night as radiational
cooling conditions look decent. This may be more for the
interior as winds may stay up too much down in the Pine Barrens
of Long Island. There is potential for temps to drop into the
upper 40s in far northwestern Orange.

The trough axis shifts east of the area on Wednesday and heights
rise briefly ahead of an approaching frontal system. Strong low
pressure will track well to our north, but could drag a cold
front through the area late in the week. There are some hints of
a decent rainfall. The NBM currently has about a 20-25% chance
across the lower Hudson Valley and southern CT for 1 inch of
rain in the 24 hr period ending 00z Saturday. Of course, this
far out there are timing and strength differences among the
guidance.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
A cold front will pass through this evening. A weak low pressure
trough will be nearby on Sunday as weak high pressure begins
to gradually nose in from the west.

Line of convection with strong wind gusts has passed the NYC
metro and will impact KBDR/KISP early on (before 01Z) KGON by
01Z-02Z. Wind shift to the W-NW should follow but the actual
cold front lags behind by a couple of hours, so there could
still be an isolated shower this evening. After actual cold
fropa expect a gusty NW flow late this evening into the
overnight. Winds may settle for a time this morning, then
increase to around or just over 10 kt with some gusts 15-20 kt
Sunday afternoon.

 ...NY Metro (KEWR/KLGA/KJFK/KTEB) TAF Uncertainty...

No unscheduled AMD expected now that tstms have moved east.

OUTLOOK FOR 00Z MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...

Sunday night and Monday morning: Mainly VFR.

Monday afternoon through Wednesday night: VFR.

Thursday: Mainly VFR. Chance of showers at night.

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

&&

.MARINE...
After thunderstorms with strong winds pass early this evening,
sub-SCA conditions are expected on all waters from late tonight
through at least Wednesday night. A frontal system late in the
week could bring SCA conditions with a strengthening S flow and
building ocean seas.

A Marine Weather Statement continues for Long Island Sound. The
US Coast Guard still indicates a large debris field caused by
recent flooding across New England.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Showers and thunderstorms this evening will bring locally heavy
rainfall which could lead to localized minor flooding.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
With a weaker and offshore flow on Sunday, there is a moderate
rip current risk at all ocean beaches. For Monday with a
diminished wind wave and a weaker swell, expect a low overall
risk of rip currents.

With a full moon on August 1st, some minor coastal flooding is
possible. The main concern is for the South Shore Back Bays of
southern Nassau and southern Queens and the western Long Island
Sound during the Sunday night, Monday night and Tuesday night
high tide cycles. Coastal flood statements and/or advisories
may be needed.

&&

.OKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
CT...None.
NY...High Rip Current Risk until 9 PM EDT this evening for
NYZ080-081.
