The episode as NWS OKX wrote it up.
Several waves of low pressure rode along a slow moving cold front approaching the area on July 23. A tropical airmass was already in place across the local area from Tropical Storm Cristobal which passed by to our east the previous day. The combination of these systems interacting with this airmass led to torrential rainfall and flash flooding.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS New York, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 23, 6:40 AM EST, 3 hours 44 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE UPTON NY
740 AM EDT WED JUL 23 2008
.SYNOPSIS...
A SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE TRI-STATE AREA INTO THIS
EVENING...AND THEN MOVE SLOWLY ACROSS THE AREA LATE TONIGHT THROUGH
THURSDAY NIGHT. THE FRONT...ALONG WITH WAVES OF LOW PRESSURE RIDING
NORTH ALONG IT...WILL PRODUCE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF
PRODUCING TORRENTIAL RAINFALL...AS WELL AS STRONG GUSTY WINDS AND
HAIL. THE FRONT WILL BE EAST OF THE REGION BY FRIDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
FIRST ROUND OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS IS MOVING THROUGH WESTERN
SECTIONS OF THE CWA ATTM...WITH SOME DOWNPOURS OF 1/2 TO 3/4 INCH
POSSIBLE. AFTER THIS ROUND OF CONVECTION MOVES THROUGH...PARTIAL
CLEARING NOW OVER THE DELMARVA AND SOUTHERN NJ WILL SPREAD NORTHWARD
INTO THE REGION...ALLOWING FOR POCKETS OF HEATING TO TAKE
PLACE...WITH MLCAPE INCREASING TO 1500-2000 J/KG BY MID AFTERNOON
NORTH/WEST OF NYC. MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE DISTURBANCES MOVING NORTHWARD
IN THE DEEP SW FLOW AHEAD OF AN ANOMALOUS CUTOFF LOW TAKING SHAPE
OVER THE GREAT LAKES WILL PROVIDE LIFT IN THE VERY MOIST/UNSTABLE
AIR MASS IN PLACE...TRIGGERING ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND TSTMS. BULK OF
THE ACTIVITY SHOULD BE CONCENTRATED OVER WESTERN SECTIONS...CLOSER
TO THE FRONT AND UNDERNEATH THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF A 75-80 KT
H3 JET STREAK IN CENTRAL PA...BUT TSTMS ALSO POSSIBLE FARTHER EAST.
PER SPC DAY 1 OUTLOOK MULTIPLE SVR WX MODES POSSIBLE...MAINLY BOWING
SEGMENTS/SUPERCELLS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING DAMAGING WINDS AND HAIL.
WITH SURFACE WARM FRONT LIFTING NORTH THROUGH THE REGION...SOUTHEAST
NEAR-SFC FLOW AND S FLOW AROUND 35 KT AT 1 KM WILL YIELD LARGE 0-1
KM SHEAR/HELICITIES...WHICH ALONG WITH LOW LCLS IN THE MOIST
AIRMASS SUGGEST SOME TORNADO POTENTIAL AS WELL.
&&
.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
SHOWERS/TSTMS WILL ALSO BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING TORRENTIAL RAINS...
FIRST VIA PW INCREASING TO NEAR 2 INCHES...WITH EXCELLENT DYNAMIC
SUPPORT VIA COUPLED H3 DIVERGENCE/H8 MOISTURE CONVERGENCE FOCUSED
JUST AHEAD OF THE SLOW MOVING FRONT WEST OF NYC...AND ALSO VIA
TRAINING/BACKBUILDING AS FRONT ALIGNS WITH FLOW ALOFT WITH MBE
VECTOR MAGNITUDE DROPS TO 5 KT OR LESS. EXACT SYSTEM EVOLUTION STILL
IN QUESTION...WITH MODEL SOLUTIONS DIVERGING BEGINNING LATE TONIGHT.
MORE AMPLIFIED/SLOWER NAM MAKES FOR QUITE A DELUGE WEST OF
NYC...WITH QPF OVER 10 INCHES IN SPOTS...AND ALLOWING FOR A
CONNECTION TO ADDITIONAL TROPICAL MOISTURE SURGING NORTHWARD FROM
BETWEEN BERMUDA/PUERTO RICO...WHILE THE FASTER 00Z GFS DUMPS HEAVY
RAINS ONLY OVER THE NORTHWEST HALF OF THE CWA LATE TODAY INTO
TONIGHT...WITH COMPARATIVELY LITTLE RAIN OUT EAST AS THE UPPER
TROUGH BECOMES NEGATIVELY TILTED...TAKING THE BEST DYNAMICS UP INTO
UPSTATE NY AND NEW ENGLAND ON THU. OTHER MODEL SOLUTIONS...NOTABLY
THE ECMWF AND SREF MEAN...TAKE THE MIDDLE GROUND...AND THIS HAS BEEN
ADOPTED FOR THIS FORECAST DUE TO THE UNCERTAINTY AS TO HOW MUCH
UPPER TROUGH AMPLIFICATION WILL TAKE PLACE. SO...HEAVY RAINS SHOULD
EVENTUALLY SPREAD EASTWARD INTO CT/LONG ISLAND ON THU...AND CONTINUE
INTO THU EVENING...BUT FOR NOW HAVE RAISED FLASH FLOOD WATCH ONLY
FOR THE WESTERN HALF OF THE CWA FROM NEW HAVEN/NASSAU COUNTIES ON
WEST...WHERE GREATEST CONFIDENCE OF FLOOD POTENTIAL EXISTS.
&&
.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
INITIALLY DRY CONDITIONS WILL GIVE WAY TO CHANCE POPS THROUGH MOST
OF THE PERIOD AS AN UNUSUAL MIDSUMMER CUTOFF UPPER LOW TO THE NORTH
SPINS SHORTWAVE ENERGY THROUGH THE AREA. AN APPROACHING SURFACE
BOUNDARY COMBINED WITH DIURNAL HEATING WARRANT CHANCE POPS FOR
SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING...WHILE THE NEXT COLD FRONT IS
EXPECTED TO PUSH THROUGH THE AREA LATE ON SUNDAY. THE CUTOFF LOW
WILL PERSIST THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK...KEEPING THE PATTERN UNSETTLED
THROUGH AT LEAST TUESDAY. MODELS DISAGREE ON EXACT TIMING OF
CONVECTION...ALTHOUGH FEEL THE BEST CHANCES WILL BE WITH AFTERNOON
HEATING EACH DAY.
&&
.AVIATION /12Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
WITH CURRENT AREA OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVING MOVED
THROUGH AND APPROACH OF WARM FRONT...CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES
HAVE IMPROVED TO VFR...WITH AREAS OF MVFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES
IN SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. UPPER TROUGH AND SURFACE
LOW REMAIN WITH WAVES OF LOW PRESSURE MOVING THROUGH THE AREA.
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD AFTER 16Z WITH
MVFR TO IFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES. THE UPPER TROUGH AND
SURFACE LOW MOVING SLOWLY THROUGH THE TERMINALS THROUGH THE
FORECAST PERIOD. CONFIDENCE IS LOW IN TIMING OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THAT WILL AFFECT ANY ONE TERMINAL...ALONG WITH HOW
CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES EVOLVE.
ANY THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT WILL BE CAPABLE OF
PRODUCING HEAVY RAINFALL...GUSTY WINDS AND POSSIBLY HAIL.
OUTLOOK FOR 12Z THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...LOW MVFR TO IFR
CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ONGOING
AFTER 12Z THURSDAY. CONDITIONS MAY IMPROVE LATE THURSDAY INTO
THURSDAY NIGHT AS A COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE AREA. SOME
UNCERTAINTY AS TO THE TIMING OF THE PASSAGE OF THE FRONT. VFR
CONDITIONS LATE THURSDAY NIGHT CONTINUE INTO SATURDAY. A COLD
FRONT APPROACHES LATE SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY WITH LOCAL MVFR
CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES IN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
&&
.MARINE...
WITH A FRONTAL SYSTEM REMAINING WEST OF THE WATERS TODAY INTO
THURSDAY A PERSISTENT SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL BE ACROSS THE FORECAST
WATERS. THIS WILL BUILD SEAS ON THE OCEAN TO SMALL CRAFT LEVELS THIS
AFTERNOON. WITH AN INCREASING PRESSURE GRADIENT LATE TODAY INTO
TONIGHT WINDS ON THE OCEAN MAY ALSO REACH SMALL CRAFT LEVELS. THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BE VERY SLOW TO MOVE ACROSS THE REGION AS THE
UPPER TROUGH CLOSES OFF TODAY. THEREFORE...THERE WILL BE A PROLONGED
PERIOD OF AT LEAST SMALL CRAFT SEAS ON THE OCEAN...WITH WINDS
OCCASIONALLY AROUND SMALL CRAFT LEVELS. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
WILL BECOME NUMEROUS TODAY WEST OF FIRE ISLAND INLET AND PORT
JEFFERSON. TONIGHT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE WIDESPREAD OVER
THE FORECAST WATERS. WITH INSTABILITY SOME OF THE THUNDERSTORMS
COULD PRODUCE STRONG GUSTY WINDS AND HAIL THIS AFTERNOON
INTO THURSDAY.
THE FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL MOVE ACROSS THE WATERS THURSDAY NIGHT INTO
FRIDAY MORNING BRINGING AN END TO THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
WINDS GRADUALLY SHIFT TO THE SOUTHWEST TO WEST WITH THE FRONTAL
PASSAGE. HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE ATLANTIC BECOMES ESTABLISHED AGAIN
ACROSS THE WATERS LATER FRIDAY AND SATURDAY. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL
APPROACH THE WATERS SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
FLASH FLOODING IS A CONCERN FROM LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO THU
EVENING AS THE REGION RECEIVES MULTIPLE WAVES OF PRECIPITATION.
A FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE WESTERN HALF OF THE
CWA...INCLUDING THE NYC METRO AREA...AND MAY NEED TO BE EXTENDED TO
COVER THE EASTERN LONG ISLAND/CT IF SLOWER NAM SOLUTION COMES TO
PASS. AT THIS POINT...EXPECT AREAL QPF OF 3-4 INCHES IN ABOUT A
30-HOUR PERIOD FROM WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH THURSDAY...WITH MUCH
HIGHER LOCALIZED AMOUNTS POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY WEST OF NYC.
&&
.EQUIPMENT...
ON JULY 28TH...AMBROSE LIGHT TOWER WILL BE DECOMMISSIONED. NO DATA
WILL BE AVAILABLE FROM THIS STATION UNTIL A SUITABLE REPLACEMENT IS
ESTABLISHED. THIS WILL BE A SIGNIFICANT DATA LOSS FOR MARINERS IN
AND AROUND THE ENTRANCE TO NEW YORK HARBOR.
