NWS Albany, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jan 14, 5:00 PM EST, 15 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY 500 PM EST SAT JAN 14 2006 OLD MAN WINTER IS ROARING BACK INTO TOWN .SYNOPSIS...A STRONG COLD FRONT MIGRATE ACROSS THE REGION DURING THE EVENING HOURS. MUCH COLDER ARCTIC AIR WILL POUR IN...CHANGING THE RAIN TO SNOW EVERYWHERE THIS EVENING. A STRONG PRESSURE GRADIENT BEHIND THE COLD FRONT AND ASSOCIATED STORM...WILL PRODUCE STRONG GUSTY WINDS...ADDING TO THE CHILL AND BLOWING THE FRESHLY FALLING SNOW AROUND TONIGHT INTO TOMORROW. THE BITTER CHILL WILL BE SHORT-LIVED. && .SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)...YET ANOTHER VERY COMPLEX FORECAST...NOT ONLY IN THE SHORT TERM BUT LONG ONE AS WELL. TEMPERATURES HAVE BEGUN TO TUMBLE TO THE WEST OF THE HUDSON VALLEY...AS ACTUAL HAS CROSS OUR OFFICE LESS THAN AN HOUR AGO. OUR RADAR INDICATES THAT WHILE THE LION SHARE OF THE REALLY HEAVY RAIN...ASSOCIATED WITH THE WARM CONVEYOR BELT HAVE PRETTY MUCH SHIFTED EAST OF OUR REGION...ANOTHER BAND OF MODERATE RAIN IS SETTING UP JUST TO THE SW OF THE CAPITAL DISTRICT...AS FORECASTED BY THE LATEST GFS. THIS LOOKS TO BE A NEW AREA OF CONCENTRATED DEFORMATION...AS THE ORIGINAL ONE...OVER WESTERN NY STATE...SHOWS OF WEAKENING. EVENTUALLY...WE EXPECTED THIS BAND TO PIVOT EAST WHILE THE COLD AIR MOVES QUICKLY. THIS SHOULD RESULT TO A TURNOVER FROM RAIN TO SNOW MOST PLACES (AGAIN ALREADY HAPPENING WEST OF ALB). EARLIER WE WERE CONCERNED THAT THERE COULD BE PERIOD OF PL/ZR. KSYR DID REPORT PL...BUT ONLY VERY BRIEFLY. WILL JUST TURN THE RAIN TO SNOW. THE NEXT CHALLENGE IS WHETHER THAT FRONTOGENTIC BAND WILL MOVE QUICKLY...OR SLOWLY ACROSS THE REGION? THE JURY IS STILL OUT ON THAT...AND THAT LIES THE CHALLENGE TO ACCUMULATION SNOWS. FOR NOW...PLAY IT DOWN THE MIDDLE WHICH KEEPS ALL AREAS BELOW WARNING THRESHOLDS...BUT MOST OF OUR ELEVATED SECTIONS FALL INTO THE ADVISORY THRESHOLDS. THIS IS SIMILAR TO LAST NIGHTS THINKING BUT OF COURSE WILL HAVE TO BE CAREFULLY MONITORED. FIGURE THE BEST SNOWFALL RATES WILL TAKE PLACE BETWEEN ABOUT 02Z-06Z. THEN...THE NEXT PROBLEM. THE WIND. ALL INDICATIONS IS THAT THEY WILL REACH WIND ADVISORY THRESHOLDS...PROBABLY BEFORE THE SIGNIFICANT SNOW WINDS DOWN. THIS LEAVES US WITH A DILEMMA. HOW TO MAKE A HEADLINES WITH ALL OF THESE? HAVE OPTED TO ISSUE A WINTER WEATHER/BLOWING SNOW ADVISORY FOR THOSE AREAS EXPECTED TO GET MORE THAN 3.5 INCHES OF NEW SHOW. THE REMAINING REGIONS...INCLUDING THE MID HUDSON VALLEY WHERE SNOWFALL AMOUNTS WILL BE CLOSE TO AN INCH...WILL STILL HAVE A BLOWING SNOW ADVISORY. WE WILL START BOTH OF THESE BEFORE ANY REAL PROBLEMS ARE EXPECTED PER THE ERH DIRECTIVES. TEMPERATURES LOOK TO TUMBLE TO BETWEEN 15 AND 25 OVERNIGHT ALONG WITH THE WIND. GIVEN IMPRESSIVE LOW LEVEL COLD AIR ADVECTION TO CONTINUE TOMORROW...HAS ACTUALLY OPTED TO HAVE TEMPS FALLING A LITTLE DURING THE DAY...WITH THE HIGHS TAKING PLACE RIGHT AROUND 12Z. FOR BOTH OF THE THESE...BLENDED THE SLIGHTLY WARMER MAV/COLDER METS TOGETHER. WILL COME CLOSE BUT JUST MISS WIND CHILL ADVISORY THRESHOLDS. EITHER WAY...SUNDAY LOOKS TO BE THE NASTIEST FEELING OF THE WINTER THUS FAR...AND WILL BE ESPECIALLY CRUEL CONSIDERING OUR BALMY 50S AND HIGH DEWPOINTS TODAY. A COLD NIGHT IN TAP FOR SUNDAY NIGHT. HOWEVER...THIS DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE A RADIATIONAL NIGHT FOR MOST PLACES...AS THE WIND...WHILE SLOWLY ABATING...WILL CONTINUE TO BLOW. THE ONLY EXCEPTION WOULD BE THOSE REALLY SHELTERED VALLEYS LIKE KGFL. MEANWHILE...H8 TEMPS...BOTTOMING OUT -16 TO -20C...WILL BEGIN TO RISE. THIS ALL MAKES FOR YET ANOTHER CHALLENGING TEMPERATURE FORECAST...ESPECIALLY IF WE DO GET A PRETTY GOOD SNOW PACK. FOR NOW...WENT CLOSE (BUT A LITTLE ABOVE MAV NOS) FOR MOST PLACES...BUT LOWER IN THE DECOUPLING SPOTS LIKE KGFL. OM MONDAY...THE WIND WILL HAVE ABATED A LOT...AS HIGH PRESSURE CREST OVER THE REGION. TEMPERATURES WILL BE SEASONABLY COLD WITH A GOOD DEAL OF SUNSHINE EXPECTED. AS THE HIGH ROLLS OFFSHORE...A SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL BEGIN TO YET ANOTHER ROUND OF MILDER AIR OUR WAY BY TUESDAY. && .LONG TERM (TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)...THE STRONG +NAO REGIME CONTINUES...POSSIBLY WEAKENING AT THE VERY END OF PERIOD. THE PNA...LOOKS TO GO WEAKLY -. THESE TWO FACTORS WILL KEEP MOST ARCTIC AIR LOCKED UP TO OUR NORTH. THIS SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL COME WITH YET ANOTHER POSSIBLE SIGNIFICANT RAIN EVENT COME TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WED. QPF AMOUNTS AT THIS POINT LOOK TO BE AN INCH OR SO...BUT WITH ALREADY SWOLLEN RIVERS AND MORE SNOW MELT...COULD PRODUCE MORE HYDRO PROBLEMS. LATER WEDNESDAY...ANOTHER COLD FRONT (NOT QUITE AS STRONG AS THIS ONE) IS FORECAST TO MOVE THROUGH. AFTER THAT...WE MIGHT GET A BREAK FROM ALL THE STORMS FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK ALONG WITH TEMPERATURES ONLY ABOUT A STANDARD DEVIATION ABOVE NORMAL. && .AVIATION...LOW PRESSURE CONTINUES TO DEEPEN AND INTENSIFY SOUTH OF LONG ISLAND AT 20Z. THIS LOW WILL MOVE NORTHEAST OVER SOUTHEASTERN NEW ENGLAND EARLY THIS EVENING...AND THEN TO THE GULF OF MAINE BY DAYBREAK SUNDAY. CIGS AND VISIBILITIES WILL BRIEFLY BE IN THE HIGH MVFR/VFR LEVELS IN THE MID AND UPPER HUDSON RIVER VALLEY BTWN AROUND 20Z...BEFORE RAIN MOVES BACK IN WITH MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS. ENOUGH COLD AIR WILL WRAP INTO THE ERN NY AROUND 00Z-02Z TO CHANGE THE PCPN TO ALL SNOW AND PRODUCE IFR/MVFR CONDITIONS FROM KGFL-KPOU. THE WINDS WILL STRENGTHEN TO 15-25 KNOTS FROM THE N/NW AFTER 00Z WITH GUSTS APPROACHING 35+KNOTS AFTER 06Z DUE TO THE LOW BOMBING OUT NEAR CAPE COD AT 06Z. THE GUSTY NORTHERLY WINDS AFTER 07Z WILL BE THE PRIMARY CONCERN WITH BLOWING SNOW. FOR NOW...WE HAVE LOWERED VISIBILITIES TO THE MVFR RANGE FOR THE BLOWING SNOW AFTER 07Z. CIGS WILL RISE TO VFR LEVELS BETWEEN 07Z-10Z. && .HYDROLOGY...THE FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN CANCELLED. THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL SO FAR HAS FALLEN EAST OF THE HUDSON RIVER VALLEY. MUCH OF WESTERN NEW ENGLAND HAS RECEIVED RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF AN INCH TO AN INCH AND A HALF. SEVERAL FLOOD WARNINGS ARE IN EFFECT FOR THE HOUSATONIC RIVER BASIN. SNOWMELT COUPLED WITH THE RAINFALL HAS PRODUCED 1 TO 3 FOOT RISES IN SRN VT AND BERKSHIRE COUNTY. TO THE WEST OF THE HUDSON RIVER WITHIN BANK FULL RISES HAVE OCCURRED IN THE SCHOHARIE AND RONDOUT BASINS WITH NO FLOODING REPORTED. THE PRECIPITATION WILL BE TURNING TO SNOW WEST OF THE CAPITAL DISTRICT 21-00Z. THE COLDER TEMPERATURES...WIND AND SNOWFALL WILL SLOW DOWN THE RUNOFF...AS A BRIEF SHOT OF ARCTIC AIR MOVES INTO THE HYDRO SERVICE AREA. ANOTHER MOISTURE LADEN SYSTEM WILL BRING MILDER TEMPERATURES AND RAIN TO THE AREA TUE INTO WED. AS MENTIONED EARLIER...THIS COULD RESULT IN MORE HYDRO PROBLEMS .
