NWS New York, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 28, 12:54 PM EST, 36 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE UPTON NY 154 PM EDT SAT JUL 28 2007 .SYNOPSIS... AN UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL MOVE ACROSS UPSTATE NEW YORK TODAY... THEN LIFT TO THE NORTHEAST THROUGH NEW ENGLAND TONIGHT AND SUNDAY. A COLD FRONT WILL ALSO SLOWLY APPROACH THE REGION THROUGH THE WEEKEND. THERE WILL BE A CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGHOUT THE WEEKEND...WITH RAIN MOST LIKELY SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL BE SCATTERED IN NATURE AND THE WHOLE WEEKEND WILL NOT BE A WASHOUT. THE FRONT WILL CONTINUE A SLOW TREK TO THE EAST AND SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. A DRYING TREND IS EXPECTED TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT AS THE FRONT FINALLY BEGINS TO PUSH OFFSHORE. DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY AS THE FRONT MOVES FURTHER AWAY AND HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS ACROSS THE REGION. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... SCATTERED SHOWERS/TSTMS ARE LIKELY THIS AFTERNOON FOR AREAS NORTH AND WEST OF NEW YORK CITY AND ACROSS INTERIOR SW CT. AS A RESULT...THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER HAS PLACED THE EASTERN THREE COUNTIES IN CONNECTICUT IN A SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WATCH BOX UNTIL 800 PM. THIS IS ALL IN RESPONSE TO AN UPPER LEVEL LOW THAT IS MOVING THROUGH CENTRAL NEW YORK STATE. THERE IS ALSO A SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT APPROACHING THE REGION THAT WILL PROVIDE ADDITIONAL LIFT AND FOCUS FOR THESE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP. BUFKIT FCST SOUNDINGS DEPICT WEAK-MODERATE INSTABILITY WITH LITTLE CONVECTIVE INHIBITION AND HIGH MOISTURE LEVELS (PWATS AROUND 1.8 INCHES) SO EXPECT SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS TO DEVELOP RATHER EASILY. 00Z MODELS DEPICT THE BEST UPPER SUPPORT REMAINING MOSTLY NORTH OF THE OKX FCST AREA...AND LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE ALONG THE FRONT IS NOT PARTICULARLY STRONG. ANY ASSOCIATED FLOODING THAT OCCURS WILL BE MOSTLY OF THE URBAN/SMALL STREAM VARIETY. WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR PERSISTENT TRAINING OF HEAVY CELLS WHICH COULD GENERATE ISOLATED MORE SIGNIFICANT FLOODING. TOOK A MOS BLEND FOR TEMPS TODAY...COMPROMISING BETWEEN THE MAV WHICH HAS BEEN RUNNING TOO WARM THE PAST FEW DAYS AND THE MET WHICH APPEARS A BIT TOO COOL. FCST NUMBERS END UP CLOSE TO FWC GUIDANCE. && .SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS WITH THREATS FOR FLOODING AND ISOLATED SEVERE AS DESCRIBED ABOVE CONTINUES THIS EVENING...THEN DIMINISHES AFTER MIDNIGHT AS THE UPPER LOW PULLS AWAY LEAVING LESS SUPPORT FOR CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY ACROSS THE FCST AREA. THE SFC FRONT WILL REMAIN TO OUR WEST...BUT LACKING ANY SIGNIFICANT UPPER LEVEL FEATURES OR GOOD LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE WOULD EXPECT ONLY ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS AFTER MIDNIGHT. LOWERED POPS TO SLIGHT CHANCE AFTER MIDNIGHT FOR WRN SECTIONS...AND CHANCE EAST WHERE THE REMNANTS OF EARLIER CONVECTIVE CLUSTERS MAY BE EXITING OFFSHORE DURING THE LATE NIGHT HOURS. FOR SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT...LITTLE CHANGE TO THE OVERALL REGIME WITH THE WEAK UPPER TROF AND SFC FRONT STILL JUST WEST OF THE AREA...ALONG WITH A VERY MOIST AND MODERATELY UNSTABLE AIRMASS. STAYED WITH HIGH CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA. LOCALIZED FLOODING THREAT WILL CONTINUE WITH PWATS REMAINING NEAR 2 INCHES. NAM AND GFS DISAGREE AS TO THE STRENGTH OF AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE FCST TO MOVE ACROSS UPSTATE NY DURING SUNDAY... WITH THE GFS QUITE A BIT STRONGER BUT POSSIBLY INFLUENCED BY CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK. FOR MONDAY...KEPT THE EXISTING LIKELY POPS BUT CONFINED THEM TO THE AFTERNOON HOURS. MODELS IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT THAT THE COMBINATION OF THE NEARBY LONGWAVE UPPER TROF AND CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE SFC FRONT IN CONJUNCTION WITH DAYTIME HEATING AND INSTABILITY SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT TO GENERATE MORE WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND TSTMS. CONTINUED TO USE A MOS BLEND FOR TEMPS DURING THE SHORT TERM PERIOD... AS MAV CONTINUES TO RUN TOO WARM GIVEN THE EXPECTED AMOUNTS OF CLOUD COVER AND PRECIP. && .LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/... THE COLD FRONT SHOULD FINALLY MAKE IT TO THE COAST MONDAY NIGHT AND PUSH OFFSHORE ON TUESDAY. LATEST MODELS ARE KEEPING ANY SFC WAVE DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE FRONT FAR ENOUGH OFFSHORE SUCH THAT THE FRONT SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET THROUGH THIS REGION. TRENDED POPS DOWNWARD THROUGH THE CHANCE CATEGORY MON NIGHT AND TUE...AND REDUCED POPS DOWN TO SLIGHT CHANCE WEST TUE AFTERNOON AND SLIGHT CHANCE EVERYWHERE TUE NIGHT. LATER SHIFTS MAY BE ABLE TO REDUCE THESE FURTHER AND PERHAPS REMOVE POPS COMPLETELY FOR TUE AFTERNOON AND NIGHT IF PRESENT MODEL TRENDS CONTINUE. THE AREA SHOULD REMAIN DRY WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE IN CONTROL AND NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ON FRIDAY WITH THE APPROACH OF ANOTHER COLD FRONT. && .AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... AN UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL CONTINUE TO LIFT TOWARDS THE NORTHEAST AS IS GETS ABSORBED BY A DEVELOPING LONG WAVE TROUGH. WHILE THE BEST DYNAMICS FOR CONVECTION WILL BE TO OUR NORTH AND WEST...THERE WILL STILL BE ENOUGH INSTABILITY TO SET OFF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS ALL OF THE AREA TERMINALS. THE BEST CHANCE OF THESE STORMS HOWEVER WILL BE ACROSS THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY AND CONNECTICUT. MUCH OF THE ACTIVITY THAT OCCURS WILL BE SCATTERED IN NATURE. SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE NEXT 24 HOURS...WITH SOME VARIABILITY BETWEEN SOUTHWEST AND SOUTHEAST. MAGNITUDES SHOULD GENERALLY REMAIN BETWEEN 5 AND 10 KT DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS...THEN BECOMING LESS THAN 5 KT WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN. AS FAR AS THE LOW STRATUS AND PATCHES OF FOG...WE WILL PROBABLY SEE SIMILAR CONDITIONS TO THE LAST FEW NIGHTS. DUE TO HIT AND MISS NATURE OF THE STRATUS THE PAST FEW NIGHTS...I TRIED TO KEEP MANY OF THE TERMINALS AT MVFR CRITERIA...WITH THE EXCEPTION OF KISP...KBDR...KSWF AND KGON WHERE THEY HAVE A BETTER CHANCE TO FALL TO IFR OR BELOW. OUTLOOK FROM 18Z SUN THROUGH WEDNESDAY... A SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT WILL CONTINUE THE THREAT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH AT LEAST TUESDAY. THE FRONT FINALLY MOVES EAST OF THE AREA LATE TUESDAY AFTERNOON...WITH IMPROVING CONDITIONS FOR TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. && .MARINE... PRESSURE GRADIENT INCREASES A BIT THIS WEEKEND AS ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE MOVES FARTHER OFFSHORE AND BROAD LOW PRESSURE SLIDES SE THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES/OHIO VALLEY TOWARDS THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES. SOUTHERLY WINDS SHOULD INCREASE TO 10 TO 15 KT TODAY. MEDIUM RANGE MODELS HAVE STARTED TO BACK OFF ON THE STRENGTH OF WAVE DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY AS IT TRACKS TO ALONG THE MID-ATLANTIC COAST EARLY NEXT WEEK. THEREFORE...WILL GENERALLY KEEP WIND SPEEDS AT AROUND 10 KT OR LESS ONCE THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY BEGINS TO APPROACH THE COAST BY LATE SAT NIGHT. THIS SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL ALSO BRING INCREASING DEWPOINTS...WITH A GOOD CHANCE FOR NIGHTTIME/MORNING FOG TONIGHT THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. AN ALMOST CONSTANT THREAT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST FROM HERE ON OUT THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND POSSIBLY LINGERING INTO MID WEEK NEXT WEEK. THE WEAK FRONT LOOKS LIKE IT MAY FINALLY CLEAR THE COAST ON TUE...ALTHOUGH THIS MAY BE COMPLICATED BY FURTHER WAVE DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE MID-ATLANTIC COAST. ONCE THE FRONT CLEARS THE COAST...AN OFFSHORE FLOW WILL DEVELOP AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS DOWN OVER NEW ENGLAND. && .HYDROLOGY... SEVERAL ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TODAY THROUGH MONDAY AS AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT REMAIN IN THE AREA. MOST OF THE ACTIVITY SHOULD BE FOCUSED DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS EACH DAY. BEST CHANCES FOR HEAVY RAINS AND FLOODING WILL BE MAINLY NORTH AND WEST OF NEW YORK CITY. ANY HEAVIER CONVECTIVE CLUSTERS WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE URBAN AND POOR DRAINAGE ALONG WITH SMALL STREAM FLOODING AS PW VALUES REMAIN ABOVE 1.5 INCHES THROUGH THE PERIOD. NO WIDESPREAD FLOODING IS EXPECTED...AS FLOOD GUIDANCE INDICATES THAT SEVERAL INCHES OF RAIN WOULD BE NEEDED TO PRODUCE FLOODING IN THE LARGER STREAMS...BUT PONDING ON ROADWAYS AND SHARP RISES IN SMALLER/FLASHIER STREAMS ARE POSSIBLE. && .OKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CT...NONE. NY...NONE. NJ...NONE. MARINE...NONE. &&
