AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE UPTON NY
416 PM EDT TUE JUN 10 2008
.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE
RETURNS ON WEDNESDAY AND REMAINS IN CONTROL THROUGH FRIDAY. A WARM
FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA ON FRIDAY...FOLLOWED BY A TRAILING
COLD FRONT APPROACHING ON SATURDAY. THE COLD FRONT PASSES THROUGH
SATURDAY NIGHT...WITH HIGH PRESSURE RESTORED ON SUNDAY AND MONDAY.
ANOTHER COLD FRONT PASSES THROUGH ON TUESDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
CURRENTLY RUNNING ABOUT 2500-3500 J/KG OF SBCAPE ACROSS THE NW
SUBURBS AND APPROX 1000-2500 J/KG ELSEWHERE EXCEPT EASTERN LI AND SE
CT. SO FAR...ONLY CU POPPING UP...MAINLY TO THE WEST OF THE CWA
WHERE A PRE-FRONTAL TROF RESIDES. WE MAY SEE SOME SHOWERS AND STORMS
WITH THE PRE-FRONTAL TROF IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS...BUT IT
APPEARS THAT BETTER CHANCES WILL ARRIVE AHEAD OF A TRAILING COLD
FRONT. THE FRONT IS FORECAST TO MOVE THROUGH THE CWA STARTING AT
AROUND 03-04Z. BEST OVERALL CHANCE OF PRECIP APPEARS TO BE RIGHT
AHEAD OF THE FRONT IN SPITE OF DIMINISHING SBCAPES. CAPPED POPS AT
LIKELY FOR THE THE WESTERN 2/3RDS OF THE CWA...WITH CHC TO THE EAST.
SPC HAS FAR NW PORTION OF CWA IN MODERATE RISK FOR SEVERE WX...WITH
SLIGHT RISK EVERYWHERE ELSE EXCEPT LONG ISLAND AND SE CT. WILL KEEP
ENHANCED WORDING IN THE ZONES. LATEST LOCAL ACARS REVEAL WIND SHEAR
AT 20-30KT AND WB ZEROES AT APPROX 14.5KFT. BIGGEST THREAT WILL
THEREFORE BE STRONG DAMAGING WINDS. WITH MARGINAL WIND SHEAR...WILL
STILL HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR POTENTIAL CELL ROTATION.
WILL KEEP EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING AS IS...WITH HEAT INDEX IN THE
RANGE OF 100-105 IN SPOTS LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY EVENING. AS
FOR THE HEAT ADVISORY...DROPPED IT WITH THIS PACKAGE FOR THE SPOTS
THAT WERE ADDED INTO THE ADVISORY LATE THIS MORNING. ONSHORE FLOW
HAS COOLED SURFACE TEMPS TO THE POINT WHERE CRITERIA SHOULD NOT BE
MET FOR THE REST OF TODAY.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN WITH FAIRLY ZONAL FLOW ALOFT. WITH LACK OF
COLD POOL ALOFT...LOOKING AT A MOSTLY SUNNY DAY. FORECAST SOUNDINGS
SHOW MIXING UP TO 850 MB...WHERE TEMPS WILL MOST LIKELY BE AROUND
13-14C. WITH PLENTY OF SUN AND A LITTLE HELP FROM
DOWNSLOPING...EXPECTING HIGHS IN THE UPPER 80S ACROSS NORMALLY
WARMEST SPOTS. FWC MOS LOOKED TOO HIGH...SO MET/MAV MOS BLEND WAS
USED. DEW POINTS WILL BE LOWER...IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S...SO IT
WILL AT LEAST FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE.
FOR THURSDAY...RIDGING AT THE SURFACE AND ALOFT...SO STILL PLENTY OF
SUNSHINE. 850 MB TEMPS RISE SLIGHTLY...BUT MORE SUBSIDENCE SHOULD
LIMIT MIXING HEIGHT A LITTLE...PLUS LESS OF A DOWNSLOPING COMPONENT
FACTORING IN. WILL THEREFORE FORECAST HIGHS SIMILAR TO THOSE OF
WEDNESDAY...WITH THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCES NEAR THE COAST. FLOW UP TO
925 MB LOOKS A LITTLE LIGHTER...SO AFTERNOON SEA BREEZE APPEARS TO
BE MORE LIKELY.
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE SLIDES OFFSHORE THURSDAY NIGHT INTO
FRIDAY...WITH A RETURN FLOW SETTING UP. WARM FRONT WILL BE PASSING
BY...BUT FEEL THAT BEST DYNAMICS ARE TOO FAR NORTH AND WEST OF CWA
PUT IN CHANCES OF PRECIP DURING THE DAY...THOUGH NAM PLACES SOME QPF
JUST NORTH OF THE CWA BY EVENING. PARTLY CLOUDY AND A LITTLE MORE
MUGGY...WITH HIGHS STILL PRIMARILY IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S...AND
COOLER NEAR THE COAST.
&&
.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
COLD UPPER LVL LOW PRODUCING SN ACROSS THE NRN ROCKIES WILL BE THE
MAIN FEATURE IN THE EXTENDED. MODELS CONTINUE TO PRODUCE VARYING
PROGS WITH REGARD TO THE H5 LOW TRACK AND PROGRESSION. THE GFS HAS
BEEN CONSISTENTLY FASTER AND FURTHER E THAN THE
ECMWF...HOWEVER...THE 12Z ECMWF JUST COMING IN HAS TRENDED TOWARDS
THE GFS. THIS TRANSLATES TIMING WISE TO BEST PCPN
CHANCES...TSRA...LATE SAT AFTN...SAT NIGHT AND ENDING SUN MORNING.
POPS HAVE BEEN DOWNGRADED FRI NIGHT AND MAY BE DROPPED IF THE MODEL
CONSENSUS AND TREND HOLDS. FRI NIGHT ACTIVITY WOULD BE WITH WAA
ALOFT AND FOCUS OF A MID LVL FRONT. FOR MON-TUE...THE H5 TROF WILL
TRANSLATE EWD ACROSS CANADA. THIS WILL PRODUCE CHANCES FOR SHRA
ACROSS THE CWA. THIS FAR OUT THE TIMING IS UNCERTAIN. GFS MON AFTN
AND THE ECMWF TUE. CHANCE POPS FOCUS ON MON NIGHT.
FOR TEMPS...ON SAT WITH SLY WINDS AND INCREASING CLOUDS...L80S MOST
AREAS EXCEPT SOME U70S CSTL CT AND LI. SUN...HEIGHTS CONTINUE TO
FALL. THERE MAY ALSO BE RESIDUAL CLOUD COVER AND PCPN FOR THE FIRST
PART OF THE DAY...ESPECIALLY ERN ZONES. FCST TEMPS GMOS AND SLIGHTLY
COOLER THAN SAT. TEMPS MON AND TUE AOB CLIMO ATTM WITH GENERAL H5
TROF ACROSS THE REGION. MAY HAVE SOME S/W RIDGING WHICH COULD GIVE A
QUICK BOOST TO TEMPS DEPENDING ON TIMING.
&&
.AVIATION /20Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS FORECAST THROUGH TONIGHT. AN APPROACHING COLD
FRONT RESULT IN A BAND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ALONG AND JUST
AHEAD OF IT. A PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH COULD PRODUCE ADDITIONAL
CONVECTION IN ADVANCE OF THE COLD FRONT. CONVECTION WILL MOST LIKELY
IMPACT THE METRO TERMINALS BETWEEN 0Z AND 3Z...WITH VSBY AND CIGS
LOWERING TO IFR. THERE IS UNCERTAINTY WITH THE TIMING AND COVERAGE
OF CONVECTION WITH THE PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH...BUT CONFIDENCE IS HIGHER
WITH THE MOVEMENT AND CONVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH THE COLD FRONT.
A SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL CONTINUE UNTIL THE COLD FRONT MOVES
THROUGH. THIS WILL SHIFT WINDS TO THE WEST AND THEN THE
NORTHWEST BY ABOUT 06Z FOR THE METRO TERMINALS. AFTER THE
THUNDERSTORMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH MOVE
THROUGH...LINGERING SHOWERS COULD PERSIST FOR A FEW HOURS ENDING
FROM WEST TO EAST BETWEEN 04Z AND 08Z WED. THEREAFTER...VFR
CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY.
OUTLOOK FOR 18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...VFR WED THROUGH AT LEAST
FRIDAY. SUB VFR CONDITIONS IN SHOWERS POSSIBLE ON SATURDAY WITH THE
APPROACH OF A COLD FRONT. VFR CONDITIONS WILL RETURN FOR SUNDAY.
&&
.MARINE...
SUB-SCA WINDS AND SEAS THROUGH THE PERIOD. A S TO SW FLOW OF 10-15
KT WILL GENERALLY PREVAIL THROUGH THIS EVE. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE
ACROSS THE AREA WATERS TOWARDS MIDNIGHT WITH STRONG TO POSSIBLY
SEVERE TSTMS POSSIBLE AND WINDS VEERING AROUND TO THE NW IN ITS
WAKE.
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE AREA WED INTO FRI BRINGING LIGHT WINDS
TO THE CSTL WATERS...AND MAINTAINING SUB SCA CONDITIONS.
HIGH PRES WILL CONTINUE TO DRIFT SE TO A POSITION E OF HATTERAS FRI
NIGHT AND SAT. SW FLOW WILL INCREASE AS LOW PRES AND A COLD FRONT
APPROACH FROM THE W SAT AFTN AND NIGHT. THIS WILL PRESENT THE BEST
WINDOW FOR SCA CONDITIONS ON THE OCEAN. WINDS LOOK TO BE BLW
ATTM...WITH 5 FT SEAS THE GREATEST CONCERN. THE FRONT IS PROGGED TO
CROSS THE WATERS SAT NIGHT INTO SUN MORNING. TSTMS CAN BE EXPECTED
WITH THE FROPA. LIGHT FLOW...GENERALLY 15KT OR LESS...CAN THEN BE
EXPECTED LATE SUN THRU TUE. WIND DIRECTION WILL BE VRB AS AN UPPER
LVL LOW TO THE NW DRAWS A NUMBER OF SFC TROFS THRU THE CSTL WATERS
ALONG WITH CHANCES FOR SHRA.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
SCT THUNDERSTORMS INTO THIS EVENING ARE EXPECTED TO PRODUCE BASIN
AVERAGE RAINFALL AMOUNTS BETWEEN 1/4 AND 1/2 INCH. HOWEVER...THERE
COULD BE SOME ISOLATED AMOUNTS OF UP TO AN INCH. RAINFALL RATES
COULD VERY WELL BE AROUND AN INCH AN HOUR...BUT FLOODING ISSUES
WOULD BE LOCALIZED. RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL BE GENERALLY LESS ACROSS
THE EASTERN ZONES.
