NWS Albany, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Aug 16, 3:13 PM EST, 2 hours 7 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY 413 PM EDT THU AUG 16 2007 .SYNOPSIS... A COLD FRONT WILL BRING SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS UPSTATE NEW YORK AND NEW ENGLAND PRIOR TO MIDNIGHT. A STRONG UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST FROM NEAR OTTAWA AND LAKE ONTARIO LATE TOMORROW AFTERNOON WITH ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS INTO FRIDAY NIGHT. AN UNSEASONABLY COOL AND DRY AIR MASS WILL BUILD SOUTHEAST FROM ONTARIO FOR THE WEEKEND. TEMPERATURES WILL BE ABOUT 10 DEGREES COOLER THAN NORMAL. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 8 AM FRIDAY/... A COMPLICATED SURFACE AND UPPER AIR SET UP LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY THIS EVENING. A COLD FRONT IS DESCENDING E/SE FROM THE SAINT LAWRENCE VALLEY. THE FCST AREA FINALLY GOT INTO A MINI WARM SECTOR IN THE LAST FEW HOURS. SFC DEWPOINTS ARE FINALLY POOLING INTO THE LOWER AND MID 60S UP THE HUDSON RIVER VALLEY. THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE TRANSPORT MAY HAVE BEEN SHUNTED BY THE MCS THAT MOVED ACROSS PA AND NJ. LAPS DATA AT 19Z...SHOWS THE BEST SURFACE BASED CAPE SOUTH AND EAST OF ALY WITH 500-1000 J/KG. MOST LOCATIONS NORTH AND WEST HAVE SBCAPES AOA 500 J/KG. THE ATMOSPHERE HAS PLENTY OF SHEAR TO WORK WITH. LATEST DETERMINISTIC GUIDANCE SHOWS 40-55 KTS OF 0-6 KM BULK SHEAR...WITH THE GREATER VALUES NORTH OF THE CAPITAL REGION TIED TO THE STRONG MID AND UPPER LEVEL JET AXIS DRAPED ACROSS NRN NY...NRN NEW ENGLAND...AND SOUTHEASTERN CANADA. THE BEST CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT HAS BEEN SOUTH AND EAST OF OTTAWA OVER SOUTHEAST ONTARIO AND EXTREME NRN NY. THE LATEST KCXX /BTV/ RADAR SHOWS A POSSIBLE SUPERCELL NEAR KMSS WITH GRIDDED VILS AROUND 65 K/M2. WE BELIEVE THE SEVERE THREAT IS STILL MURKY DUE TO THE DEFICIENCY OF DEEP LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND LIMITED INSTABILITY. WE ARE ALSO IN THE WRONG QUADRANT OF THE UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK. THERE IS PLENTY OF SHEAR FOR ORGANIZED CONVECTION. A LINE MAY FORM BETWEEN 4 PM AND 8 PM AND THERE MAYBE A FEW EMBEDDED SEVERE CELLS. WE THINK IT MAY BE AN ISOLD SEVERE THREAT AT BEST. WE WILL USE GUSTY WINDS POSSIBLE FOR THE NY COUNTIES UNTIL MIDNIGHT. WE WILL NOT USE ENHANCED WORDING FOR THE WRN NEW ENGLAND COUNTIES. WE WENT WITH THE HIGHER POPS EARLY ON NORTH AND WEST OF THE CAPITAL DISTRICT /HIGH CHANCE AND LIKELY/. WE WENT WITH ONLY CHANCE VALUES FROM THE CAPITAL DISTRICT SOUTH AND EAST. WE DECREASED THE POPS AFTER MIDNIGHT. THE COLD AIR ADVECTION IS NOT THAT IMPRESSIVE BEHIND THE FRONT AS 850 MB TEMPS ONLY FALL TO +10-+15C BY 12Z. WE ACTUALLY WENT CLOSER TO WARMEST GUIDANCE VALUES IN THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. && .SHORT TERM /8 AM FRIDAY TO SUNDAY/... FRIDAY/FRIDAY NIGHT...THERE SHOULD BE A LULL BETWEEN THE SFC COLD FRONT AND THE RIGOROUS UPPER LEVEL TROUGH ZIPPING S/SE FROM ONTARIO. WE SHOULD SEE A DECENT AMOUNT OF SUNSHINE PRIOR TO THE APPROACH OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH. THE TIMING OF THE FEATURE IS TRICKY PRIOR TO 00Z/8 PM. THE GFS HAS IT MOVING THROUGH THE BULK OF THE FCST AREA AFTER 00Z. THE H500 CYCLONIC VORTICITY ADVECTION IS STRONG WITH THE STRONG TROUGH AND THE H850-500 LAPSE RATES FALL TO 6.5-7C/KM NORTH OF THE MOHAWK RIVER VALLEY 00Z-06Z. THE QPF LOOKS A LITTLE OVERDONE ON THE GFS...BUT WE PLACED HIGH CHANCES OF SHOWERS FRIDAY NIGHT ACROSS THE FCST AREA. THE GFSMOS TEMPS LOOKED A LITTLE HIGH ON FRIDAY WITH WEAK COLD AIR ADVECTION...BASED ON THE PROFILES WITH SUBSIDENCE IN THE W/NW FLOW. WE WENT WITH U70S TO L80S IN THE VALLEYS AND U60S TO M70S IN THE MTNS. OVERNIGHT MINS MAY CRASH INTO THE 40S TO L50S ACROSS THE REGION...AS 850 MB TEMPS FALL TO AROUND 5C. SOME LAKE EFFECT SHOWERS MAY KICK UP AFTER 06Z OFF ONTARIO TOO. SAT-SUN...A VERY NICE BUT COOL WEEKEND WILL BE ON TAP WITH 850 MB TEMPS 2-3 STANDARD DEVIATIONS COOLER THAN NORMAL. THE BROAD SFC ANTICYCLONE OVER CNTRL ONTARIO SATURDAY MORNING WILL BUILD SOUTHEAST. TEMPS WILL RUN 5-10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL. SOME LAKE EFFECT SHOWERS MAY IMPACT WRN AND CNTRL NY. WE DON/T THINK THE EASTWARD EXTENSION WILL OCCUR INTO OUR AREA SATURDAY PM. ENOUGH OF A SFC WIND GRADIENT SAT NIGHT MAY PREVENT TEMPS FROM CRASHING TO RECORD VALUES...AS ADVERTISED BY THE METMOS. WE LEANED CLOSER TO THE GFSMOS VALUES WITH WIDESPREAD 40S AND SOME U30S IN THE SRN ADIRONDACKS. SUNDAY SHOULD FEATURE A LOT OF SUNSHINE. THE GFS HAS A VORT MAX PRODUCE SOME SCT SHRAS OVER THE SRN TIER LATE IN THE DAY. WE DIDN/T BUY INTO THAT SCENARIO YET. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/... HIGH PRESSURE NEAR SOUTHWESTERN HUDSON BAY SLIDES E/SE OVER THE NORTHEAST SUNDAY AFTERNOON. A WARM FRONT OVER THE OHIO VALLEY AND UPPER MID ATLANTIC REGION WILL BE MOVING N/NE SUNDAY NIGHT. THE LAST FEW RUNS OF THE MREFS SHOWS CHANCE PROBABILITIES FOR SHOWERS AT LEAST FOR THE SOUTHERN HLF OF THE FCST AREA SUN NIGHT INTO MON. THE 00Z CAN GGEM AGREED TOO. THE OPERATIONAL GFS SHOWS THE RIDGE HOLDING STRONG AND THE WARM FRONTAL PCPN ONLY REACHING THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY. WE AGREED WITH HPC AND LEFT A CHANCE OF SHOWERS IN AFTER 06Z MONDAY...AND CONTINUED IT THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. OUR CONFIDENCE IS LOW IN THE MON-TUE TIME FRAME OF THE EXTENDED...SINCE THE PLACEMENT OF THE WARM FRONT IS INCONSISTENT BETWEEN THE DETERMINISTIC LONG RANGE MODELS AND ENSEMBLES. WE LEANED WITH GFS...AND THE MREFS AND KEPT IT DRY MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY. WE ALSO AGREED THE COOLER CANADIAN AIR MASS SHOULD WIN OUT AT LEAST INTO TUE. SOME SHOWERS MAY BEGIN TO MOVE IN TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY...AS A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE MOVES THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES REGION INTO THE NORTHEAST. WE KEPT CHANCES OF SHOWERS IN HERE. THE MID AND UPPER LEVEL FLOW BECOMES LESS MERIDIONAL BY TUE WITH MORE OF A ZONAL FLOW WHICH WILL ALLOW SEASONABLY WARM AIR BACK INTO THE REGION. THE FCST AREA COULD GET BACK INTO BALMY AIR WITH H850 TEMPS RISING BACK TO 15-18C WED-THU. OVERALL...TEMPS STILL LOOK BELOW NORMAL FOR THE EXTENDED WITH PCPN NORMAL DEPENDING ON THE POSSIBLE RAINFALL MON AND WED. && .AVIATION/06Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... HIGH CLOUDS NORTH OF A FRONTAL SYSTEM WERE OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA...WITH MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES FARTHER NORTH. A POSSIBILITY EXISTS THAT RADIATION FOG MAY REDUCE VISIBILITY TO MVFR NORTH OF THE MOHAWK RIVER WHERE SKIES ARE EXPECTED TO BE MOSTLY CLEAR. FROM ALBANY SOUTH...CLOUDS SHOULD SUFFICIENTLY INHIBIT RADIATIONAL COOLING TO KEEP VISIBLITY VFR. WINDS WILL BE NEAR CALM OVERNIGHT. THIS MORNING...ANY FOG SHOULD DISSIPATE SHORTLY AFTER SUNRISE AND WIND WILL BECOME SOUTHERLY 5 TO 15 KNOTS. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP IN THE AFTERNOON. WILL KEEP CIGS/VSBYS VFR AND INDICATE CB IN THE CLDS. WINDS WILL DIE DOWN TONIGHT...AND SKIES ARE LIKELY TO BECOME PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLEAR NORTH...WHICH WILL AGAIN MAKE FOR RADIATIONAL COOLING AND A POSSIBILITY OF PATCHY FOG IN VALLEYS AND NEAR BODIES OF WATER. FRI...VFR. MVFR...CHANCE OF SHOWERS SOUTH OF THE MOHAWK VALLEY. SAT...VFR. SUN...VFR. MON...MVFR...CHANCE OF SHOWERS. && .HYDROLOGY...RIVER FLOWS CONTINUE LOW WHICH IS TYPICAL FOR SUMMER...WITH NORMAL VARIATIONS FOR GENERATION OF HYDRO POWER AT TIMES OF PEAK DEMAND. AN UNSTABLE AIR MASS AND APPROACHING COLD FRONT IS LIKELY TO TOUCH OFF SOME SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THIS EVENING WITH AMOUNTS OVER A TYPICAL RIVER BASIN TO AVERAGE AROUND A QUARTER INCH...BUT WITH CONVECTION BEING A FACTOR AMOUNTS ARE LIKELY TO VARY WIDELY AND A FEW SPOTS COULD GET OVER AN INCH WHILE OTHER AREAS GET HARDLY ANY. FOR THE MOST PART THE RAIN WILL JUST SOAK INTO THE GROUND. SOME PONDING COULD OCCUR IF A HEAVY DOWNPOUR OCCURS OVER MOSTLY PAVED AREAS. LITTLE OR NO SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL AFTER THIS EVENING THROUGH THE WEEKEND. && .FIRE WEATHER...HUMIDITY LEVELS WILL RECOVER FROM 50 TO 60 PERCENT LATE THIS AFTERNOON TO BETWEEN 90 TO 100 PERCENT TONIGHT. HUMIDITY LEVELS WILL LOWER TO 35 TO 45 PERCENT ON FRIDAY AS A DRIER AIR MASS MOVES IN. SURFACE WINDS WILL BE SOUTH OR SOUTHWEST AT 10 TO 20 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 25 MPH FOR THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON...BECOME WEST AND DECREASE TO UNDER 10 MPH TONIGHT...THEN INCREASE ON FRIDAY TO 10 TO 20 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 25 MPH FROM THE WEST OR NORTHWEST. THERE WILL BE SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE REGION INTO THIS EVENING. && .ALY WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CT...NONE. NY...NONE. MA...NONE.
