Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Binghamton NY
202 PM EDT Wed Jul 17 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
Cold front pushes through the area this afternoon and evening
with another round of showers and thunderstorms. A few storms
may become severe, with damaging wind gusts. An extended period
of fair weather is expected starting Thursday and lasting into
the weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...

2 PM Update...

Upper trough and associated surface cold front is pushing
through the region this afternoon and evening. Showers and
thunderstorms have popped up, with the strongest showers and
storms south of I88 corridor. Most of central NY saw extensive
cloud cover this morning into early this afternoon and this
limited heating across the area. The best instability is south
and east of where these clouds lined up, with CAPE values in NE
PA and into the Catskills around 1500 J/kg. Mid level lapse
rates are quite weak according to SPC mesoanalysis, however they
will likely get a little jump later this afternoon as upper
trough gets closer. Most storm structures to this point have
displayed weak updrafts and are having a tough time staying
organized, but this may change as they enter a more favorable
environment as they head further south and east. A few severe
thunderstorms are possible, and severe thunderstorm watch across
most of NE PA and in Delaware/Sullivan counties in NY is valid
until 8 PM this evening.

Cold front exits the region later tonight, bringing cooler and
dry conditions for tomorrow. Highs on Thursday will top out in
the upper 70s most areas under mostly sunny skies. Tomorrow
night will be clear and chilly, with lows dipping into the lower
50s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
140 PM Update...

Upper level trough along with surface high pressure will be in
control Friday. Calm and dry conditions are expected with mostly
sunny skies. Northwest flow will keep temperatures on the more
comfortable side with highs ranging in the mid to upper 70s with
some spots in the low 80s. Calm winds and clear skies continue
overnight with radiational cooling allowing temperatures to fall
into the 50s across the region.

Upper level heights lift by Saturday as the pattern transitions
to zonal flow aloft with high pressure sliding east over our
region. Conditions remain mostly dry for most of the day with
some models trying to hint at possible showers moving in
Saturday evening. Despite this model soundings continue to show
dry air in the low levels, so if anything were to develop it
would be in the form of sprinkles. Otherwise flow becomes south
to southwest with slightly warmer temperatures expected. Highs
will range in the upper 70s to low 80s by the afternoon.
Overnight temperatures will range slightly warmer in the upper
50s to low 60s.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
140 PM Update...

A weak cold front moves north to south over our region on Sunday
kicking of possible showers in CNY. Mainly expecting showers to be
light in nature as frontal system seems to lack moisture. Conditions
begin to change early next week as a stationary front that was
located over the Mid-Atlantic over the weekend eventually moves
north. Weak waves north of this front may support some stray showers
and thunderstorms late Monday and into the overnight hours. Chances
for showers and storms increase Tuesdsay as the front drifts even
further northward and a weak low moves east along the boundary.
Models begin to diverge on Wednesday in terms of overall
pattern, otherwise southerly flow organizes advecting more
moisture into the region. Showers are anticipated at this time
for Wednesday. Temperatures this period will max out in the
upper 70s and 80s. Overnight temps will fall into the 50s and
60s.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Showers and thunderstorms expected today, generally south of
SYR. The best coverage/chances for thunderstorms will be ELM,
BGM and AVP. Showers and storms come to an end this evening as
cold front exit the area. Some patchy valley fog is possible
again tonight, but overall confidence is too low to include in
the TAFs at this time as cloud cover is likely to persist behind
the cold front.

Outlook...

Thursday through Sunday...Mainly VFR.

&&

.BGM WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
PA...None.
NY...Air Quality Alert until 11 PM EDT this evening for NYZ062.
