AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE UPTON NY 342 PM EDT WED JUN 27 2007 .SYNOPSIS... THE BERMUDA HIGH BEGINS TO SHIFT EAST TONIGHT AS A COLD FRONT ADVANCES FROM THE EAST...BRINGING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE REGION THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT. SOME SHOWERS MAY LINGER INTO FRIDAY...THEN DRIER...COOLER AND MUCH NICER WEATHER WILL BUILD INTO THE AREA FOR THE WEEKEND AND START OF THE NEW WEEK. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/... SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP OVER LWR HUD VLY AND PORTIONS OF NE NJ ALONG A LEE-SIDE TROUGH JUST W OF THE AREA. THESE STORMS WILL PROPAGATE E INTO W CT. SOME STORMS MAY BECOME SEVERE WITH DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL...AND SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH REMAINS UP FOR PARTS OF THE AREA. WILL KEEP A CHANCE FOR SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ELSEWHERE...AS INSTABILITY LEVELS HIGH DUE TO HEAT/HUMIDITY AND ANY MOVEMENT OF THE TROUGH WILL BE ENOUGH TO TRIGGER STORMS. IT WILL BE HARDER IN FAR E PORTIONS OF THE CWA FOR STORMS TO DEVELOP DUE TO A MID-LEVEL CAPPING INVERSION...BUT WILL KEEP CHANCE POPS UP SHOULD DEVELOPING STORMS OVERCOME THE INVERSION. VERY WARM AND HUMID CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH TONIGHT AS LIGHT WINDS AND INCREASED CLOUD COVER WILL KEEP THE ATMOSPHERE INSULATED. SFC DEWPOINTS WILL REMAIN AROUND 70...AND OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE IN THE UPPER 70S TO NEAR 80 IN/AROUND NYC AND IN THE 70S ELSEWHERE. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY/... COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA EARLY THU...MOVING THROUGH THE REGION BY THU EVENING. HAVE INCREASED POPS TO CATEGORICAL FOR THU AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP. SEVERE WX INDICES SHOWING TOTAL TOTALS INDEX NEAR 50...K-INDEX NEAR 40 AND CAPE VALUES APPROACHING 3000. WITH FCST 0-6KM SHEAR VALUES AROUND 30 KT...WILL LOOK FOR POTENTIAL FOR ORGANIZED MULTICELL SEVERE WITH DAMAGING WINDS AND SMALL HAIL. URBAN FLOODING AND LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING WILL ALSO BE A THREAT DUE TO THE HIGH PWATS AROUND 2 INCHES AND TRAINING OF CELLS. HAVE GONE AHEAD AND MENTIONED ENHANCED WORDING OF TSTMS IN THE ZONES. WITH CLOUD COVER AND PRECIP...HIGH TEMPS WILL BE A FEW DEGREES COOLER THAN TODAY...GENERALLY IN THE UPPER 80S TO NEAR 90. OVERNIGHT LOWS THU NIGHT WILL GENERALLY DROP BACK INTO THE 60S. COLD FRONT WILL FIND JUST ITSELF S OF THE REGION SOMETIME AFTER MIDNIGHT FRI. MOST OF THE ACTIVITY WILL BE TAPERING OFF FROM NW TO SE. WITH WEAK WAVE DEVELOPING ALONG THE BOUNDARY...WILL KEEP AT LEAST CHC POPS FOR SOUTHERN ZONES THROUGH FRI MORNING. SKIES BEGIN TO CLEAR OUT AS HIGH PRES OVER CANADA BEGINS TO NOSE ITS WAY INTO THE REGION. THIS HIGH WILL THEN DOMINATE THE AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND. HIGHS ON FRI AND SAT WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE UPPER 70S TO AROUND 80...WITH HIGHS ON SAT MAYBE A DEGREE OR SO WARMER THAN FRI. LOWS FRI NIGHT WILL BE AROUND 60 IN/AROUND NYC...MID TO UPPER 50S MOST ELSEWHERE. WITH CLEAR SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS...RADIATIONAL COOLING WILL ALLOW OUTLYING LOCATIONS TO DROP TO AROUND 50. && .LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... 1024 MB HIGH PRES ORIGINATING FROM CANADA WILL BUILD INTO THE EASTERN THIRD OF THE NATION...SETTING UP A POTENTIALLY PHENOMENAL WEATHER WEEKEND. WILL EXPECT HIGH TEMPS IN THE UPPER 70S TO NEAR 80...LOW TEMPS AROUND 60 IN/AROUND NYC...MID TO UPPER 50S ELSEWHERE...AND SFC DEW POINTS ONLY IN THE 50S. SOME WEAK TROUGHINESS IN THE AREA MAY TOUCH OFF SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS LATE SAT...BUT NOT CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO INCLUDE IN THE FCST ATTM. OTHERWISE...HIGH PRES SETTLES INTO THE NORTHEAST TO KEEP THE REGION DRY THROUGH AT LEAST TUE NIGHT. LOW PRES AND A COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE W MAY TOUCH OFF SOME SHOWERS BY WED. && .AVIATION /19Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... A WARM AND HUMID AIRMASS WILL REMAIN ACROSS THE TERMINALS THROUGH THURSDAY AFTERNOON WITH BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE DOMINATING. A SOUTHWEST TO AT TIMES SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL KEEP PUMPING A WARM HUMID AIRMASS INTO THE REGION. SEABREEZES WILL TURN WINDS TO THE SOUTH AROUND 15 KT AT COASTAL LOCALES...WHILE INLAND TERMINALS REMAIN SOUTHWEST AT MORE OF A 5-10 KT FLOW. ALL TERMINALS SHOULD REVERT TO A MORE GENERAL SOUTHWEST FLOW AT 5 TO 10 KT AROUND DUSK. HAZE WILL RESTRICT VSBY TO LOW END VFR AND MVFR THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD. THERE IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE ANY IMPROVEMENT IN THIS AREA UNTIL WINDS TURN NORTHWEST BEHIND THE COLD FRONT THURSDAY NIGHT. CEILINGS OUTSIDE OF CONVECTION WILL REMAIN AT OR ABOVE ABOUT FL100. IN AND AROUND WDLY SCT SHRA AND TSRA...LOW END VFR AND MVFR CIGS WILL ACCOMPANY CONVECTION. MOST OF THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD REMAIN NORTH AND WEST OF THE CITY TERMINALS...BUT COULD AFFECT WESTERN AND NORTHERN APPROACHES INTO THE NY METRO AREA. ISOLD-WDLY SCT COVERAGE OF SHRA AND TSRA IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST UNTIL AROUND 00Z OR SO. HAZARDS ASSOCIATED WITH CONVECTION WILL BE SMALL HAIL...LOCALLY GUSTY WINDS...TORRENTIAL RAINS AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING. OUTLOOK FROM 18Z THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...BETTER CHC FOR TSTMS THROUGHOUT THE AREA THURSDAY AS A COLD FRONT MOVES INTO THE REGION LATE IN THE DAY. MVFR CONDITIONS LIKELY IN ANY THUNDERSTORMS WITH LOCALIZED IFR POSSIBLE. DAMAGING WINDS AND/OR HAIL WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THESE STORMS. AFTER THE FRONT PASSES LATE THURSDAY NIGHT HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTH WITH VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH SUNDAY. && .MARINE... A BERMUDA HIGH ANCHORED OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC AND A HIGH AMPLITUDE RIDGE ALOFT WILL GIVE WAY TO APPROACHING COLD FRONT DURING THE DAY ON THU. THIS WILL MEAN A CONTINUATION OF THE SW FLOW FOR ANOTHER 24H...WITH SEAS ON THE OCEAN RUNNING 2 TO 4 FT...AND 1 FT OR LESS ACROSS THE SOUND...HARBOR...AND BAYS. AS THE WESTERLIES ALONG THE US/CAN BORDER DESCEND SWD ON THU AND A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE GREAT LAKES...SEAS ON THE OCEAN WILL APPROACH 5 FT...BUT SHOULD FALL JUST SHORT OF REACHING THE MARK. WAVEWATCH GUIDANCE HAS CONTINUED TO BUMP UP SEAS ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE FRONT TO SCA CRITERIA...HOWEVER...SEAS CONTINUE TO BE OVER FORECAST. IN FACT... BUOYS 44025 AND 44017 ARE RUNNING AROUND 3 FT AT 19Z. THIS IS 1 TO 2 FT BELOW CURRENT GUIDANCE...RESPECTIVELY. IN ADDITION...CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH IN THIS PATTERN TO REACH SCA CRITERIA AND WITH THE COOL NEARSHORE WATERS...MIXING OF STRONGER WINDS TO THE SURFACE IS NOT LIKELY. FOLLOWING THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE EARLY FRI MORNING...HI PRESSURE OVER THE UPPER MIDWEST BUILDS SEWD...KEEPING THE WATERS UNDER A NW FLOW. WINDS AND SEAS DURING THIS TIME LOOK TO BE BELOW SCA CRITERIA. && .HYDROLOGY... SCATTERED INLAND AFTERNOON CONVECTION THROUGH THIS EVENING COULD RESULT IN LOCALIZED 1 TO 2 INCH AMOUNTS. WEAK LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL ALLOW FOR SLOW STORM MOVEMENT WHICH WOULD PROMOTE HIGH RAINFALL TOTALS. LOCALIZED URBAN/SMALL STREAM...POSSIBLY EVEN ISOLATED FLASH FLOODING...WILL BE POSSIBLE. COLD FRONT MOVING THROUGH THE REGION THU WILL PRODUCE MORE WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH A BETTER CHANCE FOR SEVERE WEATHER AND FLOODING AND FLASH FLOODING. SOME RAIN MAY CONTINUE THROUGH EARLY FRIDAY AFTERNOON...THEN DRY WEATHER RETURNS FRIDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH THE WEEKEND. && .OKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CT...NONE. NY...NONE. NJ...NONE.
