AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE UPTON NY 1242 PM EDT SUN JUN 22 2008 .SYNOPSIS... A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES WILL KEEP SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN THE FORECAST THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS ON WEDNESDAY...MOVING OFFSHORE BY THE END OF THE WEEK. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/... TWO BROKEN LINES OF SHOWERS/TSTMS WERE WORKING THEIR WAY NE THROUGH THE CWA ATTM ACROSS NE NJ AND THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY...ALSO EASTERN CT. OKX 12Z SOUNDING SHOWED AN EML BETWEEN 600-900 MB WHICH IS CONTRIBUTING GREATLY TO INSTABILITY...ENOUGH TO ALLOW SOME STORMS TO PRODUCE HAIL. MOST HAIL HAS BEEN SMALL THIS FAR...WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A SPOTTER REPORT OF PENNY SIZED HAIL IN SALEM CT LATE THIS MORNING. SFC-BASED INSTABILITY WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE ESPECIALLY WEST OF NYC...WHERE 16Z LAPS CURRENTLY SHOWS POCKETS OF SBCAPE OVER 2000 J/KG IN WESTERN NJ AND EASTERN PA WHERE BETTER HEATING HAS TAKEN PLACE. VIS SATELLITE SHOWS ENHANCED CU AHEAD OF SFC TROUGH IN EASTERN PA...AND THINK THIS WILL BE THE FOCUS FOR STORMS LATER THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING. LOW LEVEL SHEAR ALSO INCREASES LATER THIS AFTERNOON WEST OF THE HUDSON RIVER...SO WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR ROTATING STORMS/BOWING LINE SEGMENTS CAPABLE OF BOTH DAMAGING WIND AND LARGE HAIL. LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN ALSO POSSIBLE AS PWAT INCREASING TO 1.5 INCHES...AND TRAINING OF STORMS POSSIBLE AS LOW LEVEL JET ALIGNS WITH UPPER FLOW...YIELDING MBE VECTORS LESS THAN 10 KT. LIKELY POP REMAINS IN PLACE FOR MOST OF THE AREA...EXCEPT ONLY CHANCE OVER EASTERNMOST LI SECTIONS AND THE OCEAN WATERS AS SHOWERS MOVING UP FROM THE SOUTH HAVE FIZZLED FOR THE MOST PART. HIGHS TODAY WILL BE IN THE UPPER 70S TO AROUND 80...EXCEPT OVER THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE CWA...WHERE HIGHS WILL BE IN THE LOW TO MID 70S. && .SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY/... CHANCES FOR CONVECTION WILL DIMINISH THIS EVENING WITH LOSS OF DIURNAL HEATING...BUT PRECIP WILL CONTINUE FOR A GOOD PART OF THE EVENING AS LOW PRES PASSES OVERHEAD. A MOIST AND SOUPY AIRMASS WILL BE LEFT IN ITS WAKE...AND WITH LIGHT WINDS AND ABUNDANT RESIDUAL MOISTURE...WILL SEE FOG DEVELOPING AFTER MIDNIGHT... PERSISTING THROUGH MON MORNING. FOG MAY BECOME DENSE...ESPECIALLY OUTSIDE OF THE NYC AREA AFTER PRECIP ENDS AND THROUGH MON MORNING. MON APPEARS TO BE THE BETTER DAY FOR CONVECTION AND SEVERE WEATHER POSSIBILITIES AS CAPE VALUES RISE TO AROUND 1600 WITH A LIFTED INDEX CLOSE TO -5. ANOTHER ROUND OF POTENTIALLY SEVERE WEATHER WILL COME ON TUE AS A COLD FRONT WITH A DEEP UPPER TROUGH SWINGS THROUGH THE REGION. 12Z/22 GFS SOUNDING INDICATING CAPE VALUES OVER 200...A LIFTED INDEX AROUND -6 AND A BULK RICHARDSON NUMBER ALMOST 430...SO WILL HAVE TO MONITOR SEVERE POTENTIAL FOR TUE AFTERNOON/EVENING UNTIL COLD FRONT CLEARS THE REGION. && .LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/... SKIES CLEAR OVERNIGHT AS HIGH PRES BUILDS INTO THE REGION. TRANSITION TO WNW FLOW ALOFT THROUGH WED. THIS LIMITS THE MOISTURE SUPPLY. GFS/ECMWF PROG A S/W FROM THE NORTHERN PLAINS TO TRACK JUST S OF THE CWA LATE WED. HAVE KEPT A DRY FCST...WOULD NEED MORE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE OR HOTTER TEMPS TO GET THINGS GOING. TD/S MAINLY IN THE 50S. MAINLY DRY FOR THU. GFS HINTS AT A WEAK FRONT. WENT WITH ONLY SLIGHT CHANCES LATE AFTERNOON. CHANCES FOR TSRA INCREASE THU NIGHT THROUGH SAT AS SW FLOW ALOFT BEGINS WITH BETTER MOISTURE TRANSPORT INTO THE REGION. TEMPS THROUGH THE PERIOD VERY CLOSE TO CLIMATOLOGY. COOLEST POTENTIAL IS ON TUE. HEIGHTS THEN RISE WITH SLIGHTLY WARMER TEMPS WED/THU. WILL BECOME MORE HUMID ON FRI AND SAT. WENT CLOSE TO GMOS WITH 00Z ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE CONTINUING TO SHOW VERY LITTLE SPREAD THROUGH THE EXTENDED. && .AVIATION /12Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... TIMING OUT OF CONVECTIVE LINE APPROACHING FROM WEST...AND AREA OF RAIN WITH EMBEDDED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MOVING UP FROM THE SOUTH OF LONG ISLAND... YIELDS PRECIPITATION BEGINNING ACROSS FAR WESTERN/CITY TERMINALS TERMINALS 13-14Z...WESTERN CT/LI TERMINALS 14-15Z...AND EASTERN CT/LI TERMINALS 15-16Z. HAVE A TEMPO FOR THAT ARRIVAL HOUR...THEN GO PREVAILING WITH A TEMPO FOR TSRA FOR 2-3 HOURS. HOWEVER THIS FIRST BATCH IS NOT THE MAIN CONVECTIVE THREAT (ESPECIALLY FOR AREAS W OF NYC). BEST SHOT AT STRONG CONVECTION IS MID AFTERNOON...HAVE VRB15G25KT FOR TERMINALS W OF HUDSON RIVER TO REFLECT THIS. DID NOT MAKE A SECOND TEMPO TSRA AS NOT QUITE CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO PUT 6 HOURS OF THUNDER IN THE TAF...WITH ABOUT HALF OF THAT BEYOND THE 1ST 6 HOURS OF THE TAF (SEEN TOO MUCH GO WRONG IN THAT SHORT A PERIOD OF TIME WITH A FORECAST OF CONVECTION). BEFORE THE CONVECTION ARRIVES...EASTERN TERMINALS HAVE SOME MVFR TO IFR FOG...WITH KGON HAVING IFR CEILINGS AS WELL. APPROACHING PRECIP SHOULD MIX OUT. OUTSIDE OF CONVECTION (WHERE MVFR CONDITIONS LIKELY IN STRONGER STORMS)...SHOULD BE AN VFR DAY AND EVENING. AFTER MIDNIGHT THOUGH...PERSISTENT SOUTHERLY FLOW SHOULD BRING MVFR FOG TO ALL TERMINALS...WITH IFR STRATUS LIKELY AT COASTAL TERMINALS. WINDS WILL GENERALLY BE OUT THE S AT 5-10 KT THIS MORNING...THEN BACK TO THE SE (EXCEPT AT KSWF) AND INCREASE TO 10-15KT THIS AFTERNOON...THEN BECOME LIGHT OUT OF THE SE EVERYWHERE BY AROUND MIDNIGHT (INLAND TERMINALS COULD BECOME LIGHT AND VARIABLE). OUTLOOK FOR 12Z MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY... IFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE - ESPECIALLY AT COASTAL TERMINALS - THROUGH CLOSE OF MORNING PUSH MONDAY MORNING (CONTINUATION FORM SUNDAY NIGHT). THINGS WILL REMAIN UNSTABLE INTO TUESDAY NIGHT WITH A CHANCE OF SHRA/TSTMS WITH LOCAL MVFR TO IFR CIGS/VSBYS. VFR CONDITIONS THEN RETURN FOR THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. && .MARINE... SOUTHERLY FLOW OF 15 KT OR LESS WILL PERSIST ACROSS THE WATERS THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT WITH THE REGION ON THE BACK (WEST) SIDE OF THE BERMUDA HIGH. WINDS THEN SHIFT AROUND TO THE NW BY TUESDAY NIGHT BEHIND A COLD FRONT WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN. THE HIGH IS OFFSHORE BY THURSDAY WITH WINDS SHIFTING TO THE SW. WITH WINDS THE ENTIRE PERIOD EXPECTED TO BE 15 KT OR LESS...AND WITH MINIMAL GUSTINESS OUTSIDE OF THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED...DO NOT SEE SUPPORT FOR SCA LEVEL SEAS. && .HYDROLOGY... SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL POSSIBLE TODAY AND MONDAY AS AN UPPER TROUGH APPROACHES FROM THE WEST...WHILE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE INCREASES IN ITS ADVANCE. TOTAL AREAL QPF CALLS FOR 1-1.5 INCHES FROM NYC NORTH/WEST...AND 0.75-1 INCH ACROSS EASTERN LONG ISLAND AND SOUTHEAST CT. LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS OF 2-3 INCHES ARE POSSIBLE IN HEAVIER CONVECTION ESPECIALLY FROM THE NYC METRO AREA NORTH/WEST... WHICH COULD CAUSE LOCALIZED URBAN AND/OR FLASH FLOODING. && .OKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CT...NONE. NY...NONE. NJ...NONE.
