AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE UPTON NY 305 PM EDT THU JUN 16 2005 .NEAR TERM (THROUGH TONIGHT)... WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA HAVE SEEN SOME INSOLATION AS THE MARINE LAYER BURNED OFF...BUT MUCH OF SOUTHERN CONNECTICUT AND EASTERN LONG ISLAND REMAIN LOCKED INTO LOW CLOUDS. THE COLD FRONT IS JUST NOW ENTERING THE REGION...LOCATED JUST WEST OF THE DELAWARE WATER GAP. THIS BOUNDARY...THE PROXIMITY OF AN UPPER LEVEL LOW AND INSTABILITY HEATING TO OUR SOUTHWEST WILL COMBINE TO MAKE US MARGINALLY UNSTABLE FOR MAINLY SHOWERS AND A COUPLE OF THUNDERSTORMS INTO THE EVENING. MOST OF THE REGION REMAINS QUITE STABLE DUE TO THE ONSHORE FLOW AND LOW STRATUS CLOUD DECK. HOWEVER...WE ARE MARGINALLY UNSTABLE ALONG THE WESTERN FRINGE OF THE CWA FROM ORANGE COUNTY NY DOWN THROUGH NORTHERN NEW JERSEY AND NEW YORK CITY. WE HAVE STARTED TO SEE SHOWERS START TO POP UP ACROSS THIS REGION...AS WELL AS ACROSS AREAS OF NEW JERSEY AND EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA THAT ARE DIRECTLY UPSTREAM. THIS WILL LIKELY CONTINUE UNTIL WE LOSE THE DIURNAL HEATING...THUS SLACKENING LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES. A WESTERLY FLOW BEHIND THE FRONT SHOULD BE JUST STRONG ENOUGH TO STAVE OFF REDEVELOPMENT OF LOW CLOUDS AND PATCHY FOG OVERNIGHT. THESE SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL DEVELOP WEST OF NEW YORK CITY AND THE HUDSON RIVER AS WELL AS UPSTREAM...BUT WILL WEAKEN AS THEY APPROACH AND ENTER THE MARINE INFLUENCED PORTIONS OF THE CWA...LONG ISLAND AND SOUTHERN CONNECTICUT. && .SHORT TERM (FRI THRU SAT)... FRI AND FRI NIGHT...THE UPPER TROUGH MOVES CLOSER TO THE LOCAL AREA AND TEMPS COOL ALOFT RESULTING IN UNSTABLE CONDITIONS DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING PERIODS DUE TO DIURNAL HEATING. EXPECT TO SEE SCATTERED CONVECTION FIRE UP FROM EARLY AFTERNOON THROUGH ABOUT SUNSET...WITH ACTIVITY WINDING DOWN DURING THE EVENING. CAPES ARE NOT IMPRESSIVE WITH LESS THAN 1000 J/KG OF ENERGY AVAILABLE... HOWEVER THERE WILL BE COOL AIR ALOFT. FOR SATURDAY...THE EVOLUTION OF THE 500 HPA PATTERN WILL DICTATE HOW MUCH OF A THREAT OF CONVECTION THERE IS. AT THIS POINT WILL KEEP IN A CHANCE FOR THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING WHICH THE WEAKNESS IN THE HEIGHT FIELDS ALOFT. WE CAN FINE TUNE THE POSITION AND TIMING OF SHORTWAVES AS WELL AS AMPLIFICATION AND LOCATION OF THE TROUGH AXIS AS WE GET CLOSER. IT DOES APPEAR THAT THE TEMPERATURES WILL HAVE WARMER ALOFT...REQUIRING ADDITIONAL LOW LEVEL HEATING TO OBTAIN SIMILAR LAPSE RATES. && .LONG TERM (SAT NIGHT THRU THU)... MODEL SOLUTIONS BEGIN TO DIFFER TOWARD THE LATTER PART OF THE WEEKEND. THE GFS BUILDS HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS MUCH OF NEW ENGLAND ON SUNDAY...WHILE THE NAM HOLDS THIS FEATURE FURTHER WEST OVER THE GREAT LAKES. GIVEN THAT BOTH MODELS ADVERTISE EITHER A MID-ATLANTIC CUTOFF LOW OR EAST COAST TROUGH AT 500 HPA...WILL TREND TOWARD A CONTINUATION OF THE UNSETTLED PATTERN FROM FRIDAY AND SATURDAY INTO THE EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK. AFTER THAT...WILL TREND TOWARD THE HPC GUIDANCE WITH HIGH PRESSURE EVENTUALLY TAKING OVER. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A WEAK SHORTWAVE ON WEDNESDAY...NEXT WEEK GENERALLY LOOKS DRY ONCE WE ARE ABLE TO LIFT THE AFOREMENTIONED TROUGH/CUTOFF OUT OF THE REGION. && .AVIATION... FOR KNYC TERMINALS AND TERMINALS W OF KHPN-KISP: BEST CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING WILL BE UNTIL ABOUT 01-02Z...AND MAINLY ACROSS KNYC TERMINALS AND AT TERMINALS N AND W. STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF HEAVY DOWNPOURS AND ISOLATED LIGHTNING STRIKES. SHOWERS DIMINISH BY 06Z...THEN A NW WIND WILL ALLOW FOR DRYING CONDITIONS AND FOR CIGS/VSBYS TO RISE TO VFR. FOR TERMINALS E OF KHPN-KISP: SOME BREAKS IN THE STRATUS WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER EASTERN TERMINALS THROUGH ABOUT 20Z. CIGS ACROSS THESE EASTERN TERMINALS (KISP-KGON) WILL BE IMPROVING TO LOW-MVFR THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. SOME SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE FROM ABOUT 23Z-06Z...BUT TERMINALS HERE SHOULD REMAIN STABLE ENOUGH TO KEEP TSTMS FROM FORMING. WINDS THEN SHIFT TO MORE OF A NW FLOW AFTER 06-07Z...ALLOWING CIGS/VSBYS TO SLOWLY RISE TO HIGH-MVFR AND VFR. && .MARINE... SOME TSTMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ON THE WATERS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS A SHORTWAVE AND A WEAK SFC LOW ROTATES THROUGH THE AREA. TSTMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF HEAVY DOWNPOURS...GUSTY WINDS AND LOCALLY CHOPPY SEAS. OTHERWISE...GENERALLY QUIET CONDITIONS EXPECTED ON THE WATERS THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD WITH CONDITIONS REMAINING BELOW SCA CRITERIA. SEAS ON THE OCEAN WILL RANGE FROM 3 TO 4 FT...FALLING BACK TO 2 TO 3 FT BY SAT. WINDS TONIGHT WILL BE SHIFTING FROM A SE FLOW TO A W FLOW...THEN TO A NW FLOW BY DAYBREAK AS A WEAK SFC LOW CROSSES THE WATERS TONIGHT. && .HYDROLOGY... NO SIG PROBLEMS EXPECTED AS THE PRECIP SHOULD BE FOR THE MOST PART SCATTERED FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THE BEST CHANCE FOR ANY LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS WILL BE DURING THE MID AND LATE AFTERNOON OR EARLY EVENING PERIOD EACH OF THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. && .OKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CT...NONE. NJ...NONE. NY...NONE. MARINE...NONE. &&
