AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BINGHAMTON NY 250 AM EDT WED JUL 14 2004 .SYNOPSIS... BIG PICTURE...NRN HEMISPHERE 500 MB PATTERN HAS A BIT OF A COLD SEASON LOOK TO IT...AS WELL AS A +PNA SKEW...WITH COLD CORE LOW OVER HUDSON BAY AND A GENERAL TROUGHINESS OVER ERN NOAM. MED-LONG RANGE MODELS INICATING THIS PATTERN WILL PERSIST AT LEAST INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. && .SHORT TERM (TODAY - FRI)... TODAY-TONIGHT...CURRENTLY WATCHING MCS MOVING OUT OF MICHIGAN AND INTO LONDON PLAIN. SYSTEM IS ASSOCIATED WITH COMPACT 500 MB WAVE ROTATING AROUND CLOSED LOW OVER UP OF MICHIGAN. THIS WAVE WILL CRASH INTO DWONSTREAM 500 MB RIDGE...AND SHOULD WEAKEN....BUT PROBABLY NOT ENOUGH SO THAT THAT MCS DISINTEGRATES...BUT ENOUGH WEAKEN SHOULD OCCUR THAT IT BECOMES A WEAK CLUSTER OF SHRA...WITH SOME EMBEDDED TSRA. BASED ON CURRENT MOVEMENT AND TRENDS...MOST SIGNIFINGANT PART OF SYSTEM WILL PASS S OF CWA...AND PRECIP ASSOCIATED WITH SYSTEM SHOULD REACH WRN ZONES AROUND 09Z. MODELS SUGGESTING CLOSED LOW TIGHTENS UP AND ACTUALLY SHOWS SIGNS OF A BRIEF NEG TILT OVER THE NEXT 18 HOURS. MODELS ALSO INDICATING A WEAK COUPLED JET STRUCTURE DEVELOPING OVER CWA BY THIS AFTERNOON. SEEMS LIKE IT WOULD BE HARD NOT TO SEE NUMEROUS SHRA/TSRA DEVELOPING DURING THE COURSE OF THE DAY INTO TONIGHT. IF THIS WERE NOVEMBER...THE DECISION TO THROW CAT POPS OUT THERE WOULD BE EASY...BUT IN JULY ITS MORE ABOUT CONVECTION AND THUS COVERAGE...SO WILL GO LKLY...AS THERE MAY ACTUALLY BE SOME AREAS THAT SEE NO RAIN. OTHER ISSUE IS OF COURSE HEAVY RAIN...CLOSED SYSTEMS IN JULY ARE NOTORIOUS FOR PRODUCING HIGHLY LOCALIZED FLOODING...BUT IT WOULD BE JUST THAT...LOCALIZED...AND TOO HARD TO PINPOINT TO ISSUE ANY FLAGS. WILL CONT THE LKLY TONIGHT...DON/T REALLY EXPECT ANY CHANGES TO OCCUR...EXCEPT THAT LOSS OF HEATING MAY REDUCE COVERAGE...AND JET STRUCTURE BECOMES LESS FAVORABLE...WITH WEAKENING UPPER LVL DIVERGENCE. THU-FRI...CLOSED LOW BEGINS TO SLOWLY LIFT EAST AND FILL DURING THIS PERIOD. MOST OF CWA WILL BE ON WEST SIDE OF TROUGH AXIS...BUT WAVES WILL BE ROTATING AROUND SYTEM...SO WILL GO WITH CHC POPS...AND WILL WAIT FOR LATER PERIODS TO FINE TUNE TIMING. && .LONG TERM... SLOW IMPRVMT THEN BEGINS AS DRIER AIR MVES IN ARND THE BASE OF THE LOW AND THE LOW BEGINS TO MOVE OUT FRI NIGHT. HOWEVER...LARGER SCALE TROUGH PATTERN WILL EXIST THROUGH THE WEEKEND. && .AVIATION... ONE BROKEN LINE OF TSRA MOVING ACROSS SRN TIER/NE PA AND COULD EFFECT KAVP NEXT HOUR OR SO. MORE SIGNIFICANT WILL BE REMNANTS OF MCS CURRENTLY OVER LAKE ERIE/SW ONT...WHICH SHOULD HIT KELM/KITH/KSYR BETWEEN 09 AND 12Z. IN GENERAL CIGS WILL IMPROVE OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS...THOUGH VISBYS COULD DROP IN BR. VFR/MVFR CIGS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH TODAY...WITH TEMP IFR CONDS IN SHRA/TSRA. && .BGM WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NY...NONE. PA...NONE. && CEMPA
