AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
444 PM EST WED DEC 9 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
AS DEEP LOW PRESSURE MOVES TO THE NORTH...BRISK WESTERLY GRADIENT
SETS UP...AND DRY AND COLD WEATHER IS ANTICIPATED THROUGH SATURDAY.
AN UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN IS EXPECTED FROM EARLY NEXT WEEK
THROUGH MID WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
CONVECTION FIRING ON LEFT EXIT REGION OF VERY STRONG JET STREAK
TO THE N AND W OF NYC. FORECAST UPDATED TO INCREASE POPS AND ADD THUNDER.

PREVIOUS... UPPER SHORTWAVE AHEAD OF CLOSED LOW PRODUCING
CONVECTION TO THE WEST...BUT DO NOT FORESEE THIS ACTIVITY
MAINTAINING ITS INTENSITY AS IT TRACKS NORTHEAST. COULD SEE A FEW
SHOWERS THIS EVENING (BUT WILL KEEP AN EYE ON TSTMS)...THEN
ATMOSPHERE DRIES OUT AS DEEP WESTERLY FLOW PREVAILS. DESPITE
CAA...STRONG WEST WINDS WILL RESULT IN FAIRLY UNIFORM TEMPS...WITH
CSTL AREAS SLIGHTLY WARMER THAN INTERIOR.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY/...
PERSISTENT DEEP WESTERLY FLOW AND CAA WILL RESULT IN BELOW NORMAL
TEMPS THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT. AIRMASS BEGINS TO MODIFY SOMEWHAT BY
SATURDAY. COLDEST DAY LOOKS TO BE FRIDAY...AS TEMPS STRUGGLE TO RISE
ABOVE FREEZING ANYWHERE IN THE CWA.

BRISK WEST FLOW WILL MAKE IT FEEL CHILLIER. DRY WEATHER THOUGH
PREVAILS...WITH ANY LAKE EFFECT PRECIP REMAINING TO OUR NORTH AND
WEST.

AS FOR MAX/MINS...WILL CHOP A DEGREE OR TWO OFF OF MOS...ESPECIALLY
WHERE ANY SNOWPACK EXISTS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
A 1033 HI WILL BE CENTERED OVER THE CWA 12Z SUN. THIS IS THE MOST
CONFIDENT ASPECT OF THE FCST. 12Z ECMWF/GFS DIFFER THEREAFTER. AT H5
SW FLOW DEVELOPS WITH WAA DURING THE DAY SUN. THE GFS CONTINUES TO
PRESENT A WET SOLN WITH LATE SUN INTO SUN NGT THE TIMING. ECMWF IS
DRY. WITH DRASTIC WARMING AT H85 AND SLY BL WINDS DEVELOPING...PCPN
WOULD BE SN TO SLEET TO RA COASTS WITH SNOW TO SLEET INTERIOR. POPS
ARE IN THE LOW CHC CATEGORY FOR NOW. INCREASING CLOUDS BY AFTN CAN
BE EXPECTED.

DEEP H5 LOW WILL THEN TRACK INTO THE NRN GREAT LAKES BY TUE NGT. SRN
STREAM WILL ATTEMPT TO SPIN UP A SFC LOW OVER THE NRN GULF COAST.
HOW THIS ENTIRE SCENARIO EVOLVES IS IN QUESTION. PREV RUNS HAVE
HINTED AT A COASTAL...WHILE THE LATEST FEW CYCLES HAVE TRENDED TO A
MORE BENIGN SOLN. OFFICIAL FCST CARRIES SCHC TO LOW CHC POPS TUE
THRU EARLY WED WITH A WINTRY MIX OF PCPN IN THE INTERIOR AND MIX/RA
METRO AND COASTS. THE TIMING/PTYPE/INTENSITY ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE
IN THE MON-WED PERIOD AS CLEAR TRENDS BEGIN TO DEVELOP.

&&

.AVIATION /22Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
CLEARING ALG AND EAST OF A KABE-KJFK-KISP LINE. CLOUD DECK SLOWLY
LIFTING NORTHWARD. GENERAL TREND IS IMPROVING CONDS...WITH THE
EXCEPTION OF KSWF WHICH WILL HOLD ONTO LOW CIGS LONGEST.

WHILE CONF IN HIGH WIND SPEEDS LATER THIS EVENING IS HIGH...EXACT
TIMING OF ONSET IS QUESTIONABLE AND MAY OCCUR A BIT SOONER THAN
FORECAST. ALSO WATCHING CONVECTION ACROSS CENTRAL PA...WHICH IF
HOLDS TOGETHER MAY IMPACT THE AREA AFTER 21-22Z. PRIMARY THREAT
WOULD BE ERRATIC AND GUSTY WINDS.

STRONG WINDS TONIGHT/THU EXPECTED TO REMAIN TO THE LEFT OF 310 DEG.

.MARINE...
A LULL IN THE WINDS THROUGH THIS EARLY EVENING AS A SECONDARY LOW
PRESSURE CENTER PASSES THROUGH THE WATERS. AS THIS LOW STRENGTHENS
AND TRACKS TOWARDS SE CANADA THE PRESSURE GRADIENT RE- TIGHTENS WITH
A STRONG WESTERLY FLOW DEVELOPING THIS EVENING. COMBINED WITH
CAA...LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES STEEPEN WITH GALE FORCE WINDS EXPECTED
OVER ALL WATER TONIGHT.

THE GRADIENT REMAINS TIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY WITH REINFORCING SHOTS OF

INTO FRIDAY NIGHT WITH SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY. HAVE EXTENDED GALE
WARNING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT AS A RESULT. WIND GUSTS WILL LIKELY
BE MARGINAL ACROSS REMAINDER OF THE WATERS ON THURSDAY...SO HAVE
HOISTED A GALE WATCH DUE TO LOWER CONFIDENCE ON SECOND PERIOD EVENT.

LOW.

WITH STRONG AND PERSISTENT OFFSHORE FLOW...AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF
TIDAL DEPARTURES RUNNING 2 1/2 TO 3 1/2 FT BELOW NORMAL EXPECTED

SUBSIDING BY SUNRISE. A COMPLEX SCENARIO THEN DEVELOPS IN THE SUN

THESE TWO SYSTEMS...THE DEVELOPMENT OF LOW PRES OVER THE REGION IS
POSSIBLE. PERIODS OF SCA CONDITIONS CAN BE EXPECTED...WITH GALES
POSSIBLE SHOULD THE LOW DEVELOP.
