AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
330 PM EDT SAT JUL 24 2010
.SYNOPSIS...
A WARM FRONT WILL REMAIN TO THE NORTH TONIGHT. A COLD FRONT WILL
SLOWLY MOVE ACROSS THE AREA SUNDAY...AND PASS SOUTH AND EAST OF THE
AREA BY SUNDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDS FROM THE GREAT
LAKES ON MONDAY...AND REMAINS INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY. A COLD FRONT
WILL STALL OVER THE REGION...WITH UNSETTLED WEATHER LATE IN THE WEEK.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
THE HOT AND HUMID WEATHER CONTINUES THIS EVENING AND INTO THE
OVERNIGHT. PLENTY OF INSTABILITY HAS SET THE STAGE FOR TSTM
DEVELOPMENT. ANY BOUNDARIES LEFT OVER FROM UPSTREAM CONVECTION...AND
SEA BREEZES WILL BE THE FOCUS FOR TSTM DEVELOPMENT. HEAVY RAINFALL
AND GUSTY WINDS THE MAIN THREAT OVERNIGHT AS PRECIPITABLE WATER
CONTENT QUITE HIGH...ABOUT 200 PERCENT ABOVE NORMAL.
STORMS WILL MOVE EAST/SOUTHEAST WITH THE MEAN FLOW.
OTHERWISE...HEAT RELATED PRODUCTS WILL EXPIRE LATER THIS EVENING.
NYC WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT AND INTO SUNDAY.
FOLLOWED A MAV/MET BLEND...BUT CONTINUED TO TWEAK UPWARD FROM THIS
OUTPUT AS MODELS HAVING TROUBLE KEEPING UP WITH THIS ANOMALOUS
RECORD BREAKING AIRMASS. TEMPS EXPECTED TO REMAIN ABOVE 80 DEGREES
FOR MANY LOCATIONS IN AND AROUND METRO.
A MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS CONTINUES AT THE OCEAN BEACHES...AS
W-SW WINDS COMBINE WITH S-SE SWELL.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY/...
MODELS CONTINUE TO SLOW FRONTAL PROGRESSION TO THE SOUTH AND EAST OF
THE CWA SUNDAY. WITH THIS BOUNDARY MOVING ACROSS THE REGION DURING
MAX HEATING...AND LOWERING HEIGHTS/COOLING ALOFT AS SHORTWAVE
TRAVERSES ACROSS THE NORTHEAST...AREA NOW IN A SLIGHT RISK FOR
SEVERE TSTMS SUNDAY.
BECAUSE OF THIS SLOWER MOVEMENT...THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL LINGER
FOR JUST A LITTLE LONGER. THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL COMBINE FOR
ANOTHER 95 DEGREE HEAT INDEX ONCE AGAIN IN AND AROUND NYC METRO.
AS SUCH...THE HEAT ADVISORY CONTINUES THROUGH SUNDAY FOR HEAT
INDICES OF 95 OR GREATER IN NEW YORK CITY.
THIS FRONT FINALLY MOVES TO THE SOUTH AND EAST SUNDAY NIGHT...AS
CONTINENTAL HIGH PRESSURE STARTS TO BUILD FROM THE GREAT LAKES
REGION. H8 TEMPS NEAR 15C PLUS FULL SUN AND DOWNSLOPE NW FLOW COULD
STILL RESULT IN HIGH TEMPS/HEAT INDEX VALUES NEAR 90 ON MONDAY.
ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS PERSIST THROUGH TUESDAY...BUT MONDAY AND TUESDAY
WILL BE NOTICEABLY COOLER. DRY WEATHER FORECAST THROUGH TUESDAY AS
RIDGE BUILDS.
STARTED WITH MET/MAV BLEND...THEN TWEAKED TEMPS UPWARD SLIGHTLY.
&&
.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE OFFSHORE WILL SET UP A RETURN FLOW TUESDAY NIGHT INTO
WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR HUMID AIRMASS TO MOVE INTO THE AREA.
A COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE MOVING ACROSS
CANADA WILL MOVE ACROSS THE REGION LATE WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY.
THIS WILL BRING A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. WILL CARRY
CHANCE POPS.
HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS FOR THE END OF THE WEEK. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE FRIDAY AND SATURDAY WITH DAYTIME
HEATING.
MAX TEMPS WILL TOP OFF IN THE 80S TO AROUND 90.
&&
.AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
MID AND HIGH CLOUDS CONTINUE TO OVERSPREAD THE TERMINALS THIS
AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. SEA BREEZE...THOUGH NOT A TRUE SEA
BREEZE...THROUGH KJFK WITH SW WINDS. SEA BREEZE EITHER HAS GONE
THROUGH OR WILL GO THROUGH OTHER COASTAL TERMINALS SUCH AS
KGON/KBDR/KISP SHORTLY. AGAIN...WINDS MORE OF A SW FLOW AS OPPOSED
TO TRADITIONAL SOUTHERLY FLOW WITH SEA BREEZE...AND DIRECTION WILL
GENERALLY AVERAGE 220-240 DEGREES.
OTHERWISE...WESTERLY FLOW AT ALL OTHER TERMINALS. BREEZY
CONDITIONS AT KEWR/KTEB...SO WILL CARRY 17-19 KT GUSTS AT THOSE
TERMINALS.
FLOW DIMINISHES THIS EVENING. WITH ABUNDANT MOISTURE IN THE
ATMOSPHERE...WILL EXPECT MVFR VSBY IN BR...MAINLY AWAY FROM KNYC
TERMINALS.
AREA OF SHRA/TSRA WILL PASS THROUGH KGON SOMETIME BETWEEN 20-22Z.
STORMS MAY STAY EAST OF THE TERMINAL...BUT WILL CARRY TEMPO GROUP.
FOR ALL OTHER TERMINALS FOR THE LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING...
CONVECTION WILL BE TOO ISOLATED TO PINPOINT AT AN EXACT TERMINAL.
WILL AMEND TAFS TO INCLUDE THUNDER AS STORMS DEVELOP. GENERALLY
LOW CHANCES FOR THUNDER THROUGH SUNSET...BUT WILL CONTINUE TO
MONITOR. WILL EXPECT +RA AND GUSTY WINDS WITH ANY THUNDERSTORMS.
BETTER CHANCES FOR CONVECTION AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT AS COLD FRONT
PRESSES THROUGH THE REGION. WILL TEMPO TSRA FROM 04-08Z FOR
WESTERN TERMINALS AND 07-10Z FOR EASTERN TERMINALS. +RA AND STRONG
GUSTY WINDS EXPECTED IN TSRA.
THERE WILL BE A BREAK IN THE CONVECTION FROM EARLY SUN MORNING
THROUGH EARLY SUN AFTERNOON...THEN CONVECTION FLARES UP AGAIN
STARTING AROUND MIDDAY.
OUTLOOK FOR 18Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...
SUN...GENERALLY VFR. CHANCE SUB-VFR IN AFTERNOON CONVECTION. GUSTY
NW WINDS LATE IN THE DAY.
SUN NIGHT...IMPROVING CONDITIONS.
MON...VFR WITH GUSTY W-NW WINDS.
TUE...VFR.
WED...SUB-VFR POSSIBLE IN SHRA/TSRA.
THU...VFR.
&&
.MARINE...
WEST TO SOUTHWEST WINDS REMAIN SUB SCA CRITERIA THROUGH SUNDAY.
HOWEVER...SEAS IN SE SWELL WILL REMAIN AROUND 5 FEET FOR THE WATERS
EAST OF FIRE ISLAND INLET. WILL CONTINUE THIS MARGINAL SCA THROUGH
SUNDAY. OTHERWISE...TRANQUIL SEAS ANTICIPATED ACROSS THE BAYS/SOUND
AND HARBOR.
NORTHWEST FLOW BEHIND SLOW MOVING FRONT SUNDAY NIGHT. BETTER MIXING
FOR SOME GUSTS TO APPROACH 25 KTS SUNDAY NIGHT...HOWEVER DO NOT FEEL
THESE GUSTS WILL BE FREQUENT ENOUGH TO WARRANT SCA.
WINDS AND SEAS CONTINUE TO IMPROVE MONDAY AND TUESDAY AS HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS TOWARD THE WATERS.
SUB SCA CONDITIONS THROUGH MUCH OF THE LONG TERM AS HIGH PRESSURE
WILL REMAIN OVER THE WATERS. A COLD FRONT PUSHING ACROSS THE WATERS
WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY MAY RESULT IN BRIEF SCA CONDITIONS IN
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
SCATTERED CONVECTION INTO THIS EVENING AND AGAIN ON SUNDAY COULD
PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL...POSSIBLY CAUSING MINOR URBAN/POOR
DRAINAGE FLOODING. HOWEVER...AREAL QPF THROUGH SUNDAY WILL ONLY BE
ABOUT 1/4 TO 3/4 INCH. AS IS USUALLY THE CASE WITH SCATTERED
CONVECTION...SOME AREAS COULD RECEIVE VERY LITTLE RAINFALL...WHILE
OTHERS SEE SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL IN HEAVIER SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS.
