What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this wind advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Albany, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Dec 17, 12:30 PM EST, 0 minutes earlier. Its key messages:
- 1. A milder air mass briefly returns Thursday into Friday for the first time since the day before Thanksgiving yielding a period of moderate rain and snow melt ahead of a strong frontal boundary. 2. Poor drainage flooding may result in some locations due to the period of rainfall combined with snowmelt, especially in the valley areas. 3. Strong gusty southeast to south winds are possible Thu night ahead of the cold front, and then very windy conditions are likely late Friday afternoon into the Friday night which may down some large tree limbs, trees and cause some power outages. 4. Frigid conditions return Friday night into the weekend with a Clipper low producing light snow accums across parts of eastern NY and western New England Saturday night into Sunday.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 17, 12:30 PM EST, 0 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Albany NY 1230 PM EST Wed Dec 17 2025 .WHAT HAS CHANGED... Confidence continues to increase Thursday night into Friday morning for strong gusty southeast to south winds ahead of a cold front for the western New England higher terrain, the eastern Catskills and the narrow north south valleys near the Mohawk Valley. Very windy post frontal winds are likely from the west to northwest Friday to Friday night. && .KEY MESSAGES... 1. A milder air mass briefly returns Thursday into Friday for the first time since the day before Thanksgiving yielding a period of moderate rain and snow melt ahead of a strong frontal boundary. 2. Poor drainage flooding may result in some locations due to the period of rainfall combined with snowmelt, especially in the valley areas. 3. Strong gusty southeast to south winds are possible Thu night ahead of the cold front, and then very windy conditions are likely late Friday afternoon into the Friday night which may down some large tree limbs, trees and cause some power outages. 4. Frigid conditions return Friday night into the weekend with a Clipper low producing light snow accums across parts of eastern NY and western New England Saturday night into Sunday. && .DISCUSSION... KEY MESSAGE 1... On the heels of a clipper low and a cold front today producing some light snow showers north and west of the Capital Region, then a milder air mass will return on Thursday. Temps have averaged below normal for nearly 3 weeks since the Thanksgiving holiday. High pressure will build in from the south on Thursday with mid and upper heights increasing along the East Coast ahead of a potent mid and upper level trough digging into the Central Plains. An influx of milder air will surge into the region with an increasing southerly low-level jet. Temps on Thu may reach the lower to mid 40s in the valleys with mid 30s to around 40F over the higher terrain, after a chilly start in the teens and 20s. The H925/H850 low-level jet cranks up to 50-70 KT Thu night with above normal temps briefly surging into the region. In fact, the latest NAEFS guidance indicates V-wind anomalies /southerlies/ at 850 hPa being +3 to +4 standard deviations /STDEVs/ above normal moving across the region. The strong south/southeast winds will allow temps to rise Thu night from lows in the 30s and lower 40s early on with periods of rain developing with the strong isentropic lift. H850 temps rise +1 to +2 STDEVs above normal with the actual temps +3 to +6C by Fri morning. Low pressure passes well to the north and west of the forecast areas from the central Great Lakes Region into southeast Ontario Friday morning. The forecast area will be entrenched in a warm sector briefly with temps rising about 15-20 degrees above normal with NBM highs of upper 40s to mid 50s supported in the valleys and 40s to around 50F over the higher terrain. The snowpack will melt in many of the valley locations with some reduction of the pack over the higher terrain. The latest SPC Outlook has a "General Thunderstorms" forecast over all of eastern NY and western New England Thu-Thu night with elevated instability present. Some rumbles of thunderstorms will be possible, but we did not add a slight chance of thunderstorms to forecast yet. QPF does not look overly excessive, but will discuss it further in the next "Key Message". Strong cold advection occurs Fri pm into Fri night in the wake of the cold front with temps crashing back below normal in the teens and lower 20s with some single digits in the Adirondack Park ending the mild air mass quickly. Some locations could get a dusting to a few inches of snow north and west of the Tri Cities and in favored westerly upslope areas to the north and east. KEY MESSAGE 2... The bulk of the rainfall or QPF will occur Thu night into Friday in a 12-18-hr window. Snow depths in the south/southwest Adirondacks range from 8-20" and the southern Greens 6-16" based on the latest NOHRSC. Many valley areas have 1-6". The strong southerlies and the rainfall may melt a lot of the snow pack in the valleys causing ponding and poor drainage flooding in low- lying areas. Some melting, movement and break-up of ice may occur on rivers. The snowpack may ripen or compact due to absorption over the higher terrain, but the latest rainfall forecast is for 0.75"-1.0" over most of the forecast area with 1-1.5" or so over the eastern Catskills. River Flooding is not forecast, but poor drainage or urban flooding may occur in some of the valley areas. Frigid air will gush back in Friday night which will dry things out and freeze up any standing water. Ice on the northern most basins ranges from 3" to 9" based on the NERFC guidance, which is thick for this time of year, so the ice jam threat looks somewhat low with a brief spell of milder weather. KEY MESSAGE 3... Wind headlines may be needed for the south/southeast winds Thu night into Fri morning for portions of the forecast areas. Local CSTAR cool season research with SUNYA has shown that anomalous warm conveyor belt winds with strong cyclones can produce impacts. The south to southeast winds increase to 50-70 KT Thu night-Fri morning in th H925-H850 layer. The big question will be if some of these winds at 925 hPa or 850 hPa puncture through the stable layer and reach the surface. The past research and conceptual models show that these south to southeast winds favor perhaps Wind Advisory levels wind gusts (46-57 mph) for the western New England higher terrain (southern Greens, Berkshires, and Litchfield Hills), the Taconics, the eastern Catskills and sometime narrow south to north valleys merging into the Mohawk Valley. We used and collaborated the NBM 90th percentile winds and wind gusts Thu night-Fri. Some gusts 40-50 mph are supported in the previously described areas. Wind Advisories may be needed later and we will note this in a DSS one pager to our customers. Part II of the winds will occur Fri pm into Fri night. Strong cold advection occurs in the wake of the cold front. Strong sfc pressure rises occur across the region on the order of 9-12 hPa/6hrs. The H925 winds are impressive at 35-45 KTs. It will be at night but decent momentum transfer with the rapid pressure rises and cold advection may allow for some wind gusts 40-55 mph which could bring down large tree limbs, some large trees, and power lines causing some power outages. Not confident about a High Wind Watch yet, but at least a Wind Advisory may be needed Fri pm to Fri night for a large portion of the forecast area. The latest NBM 24-hr Max gust probabilities (QMD) > 40 mph for the 24-hr period ending 1 am Saturday are over the eastern Catskills, Greater Capital Region, Taconics and much of the western New England higher terrain. The winds should rapidly subside mid to late Sat morning. KEY MESSAGE 4... High pressure builds in quickly Sat morning with below normal temps in the teens and lower 20s with colder readings over the Adirondack Park. The mid and upper level flow becomes zonal over the Northeast with the next clipper/hybrid cyclone approaching from the Upper Midwest, southern Ontario and the Great Lakes Region. The clipper could produce light snow accums (a few inches) Sat night into Sunday from the I-90 corridor north with some road impacts. The colder than normal temps return into early next week with more clippers possible before the mid week. && .AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... Through 18z Thursday...Flying conditions are VFR at all terminals as of 12:25 PM EST. While a few light rain/snow showers are possible at ALB/GFL within the first hour or two of the TAF period (hence mention of VCSH in these TAFs), mainly VFR conditions are expected this afternoon and evening with SCT to BKN mid-level clouds. Clouds diminish tonight, with skies becoming mainly clear for the second half of the night. There is a low chance for some patchy fog/mist late tonight, mainly at GFL, but confidence is too low to mention anything in the TAFs at this time. Aside from any fog/mist late tonight, VFR conditions continue through at least 18z tomorrow with mainly just high clouds around tomorrow morning. Winds will be from the S/SE to start the TAF period this afternoon with some gusts of 15-20 kt at ALB/PSF/POU. Winds veer to the S/SW around sunset ahead of a cold front with diminishing gusts, then shift to the west behind the front between roughly 22-02z from west to east this evening. Winds behind the front will be at around 10 kt, with gusts of 20-25kt at ALB/PSF. ALB/PSF will also have some LLWS concerns with the low-level jet strengthening to 40-45kt behind the cold front. Winds, gusts, and the low-level jet all diminish after midnight, with mainly light and variable winds through early to mid-morning tomorrow. Then, winds increase around 5 kt from the S/SE at GFL/POU and 10kt at ALB/PSF with gusts to 20-25kt at ALB/PSF through 18z tomorrow. Strengthening low-level jet will lead to renewed LLWS concerns at all terminals tomorrow mid-morning through at least 18z. Outlook... Thursday Night: High Operational Impact. Windy With Gusts To 36 kts. Definite RA. Friday: High Operational Impact. Windy With Gusts To 39 kts. Definite RA. Friday Night: Moderate Operational Impact. Windy With Gusts To 39 kts.
