AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
153 PM EDT THU JUN 23 2011
.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE SLOWLY TRACKING ACROSS THE MIDWEST WILL KEEP HUMID
AND UNSETTLED WEATHER ACROSS THE REGION TODAY. A COLD FRONT WILL
APPROACH FROM THE WEST ON FRIDAY AND SLOWLY MOVE ACROSS THE AREA
FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY. THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL STALL SOUTH
OF THE AREA AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTH INTO EARLY
NEXT WEEK. A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE TRACKING ALONG THE STALLED
BOUNDARY MAY IMPACT THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY. WEAK HIGH
PRESSURE RETURNS ON WEDNESDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
1745Z UPDATE...UPDATED POPS BASED ON RADAR TRENDS. TSTMS WITH
EMBEDDED HEAVY RAINFALL ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN CT AND LONG

SHOWERS ACROSS THE NORTHEAST NJ AND THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY MAY
ALSO STRENGTHEN INTO TSTMS AS THEY MOVE ACROSS NYC AND THE LOWER
HUDSON VALLEY OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. A WEAK FRONTAL
BOUNDARY TO OUR WEST WILL REMAIN THE TRIGGER FOR SHRA/TSRA AS
SHORTWAVES ALOFT MOVE IN FROM THE SW.
PRECIPITABLE WATERS ON 12Z SOUNDINGS RANGE FROM 1.5-2 INCHES
ACROSS THE REGION...AND LOOK ALMOST TROPICAL/SUB-TROPICAL IN
NATURE. SO MAIN THREAT IS FROM FLASH FLOODING. IF ELEVATED CORES
IN STORMS GET HIGH ENOUGH...COULD ALSO SEE SOME MICROBURSTS AS
WELL. GIVEN MOIST/WARM SOUNDINGS...HAIL REACHING SEVERE LIMITS IS
VERY UNLIKELY...THOUGH SOME ISOLATED REPORTS OF SMALL HAIL ARE
POSSIBLE.

AFTERNOON...WITH LITTLE OR NO BREAKS...HAVE LOWERED HIGHS AS A
RESULT DOWN TOWARDS A BLEND OF 6Z MAV AND 00Z MET GUIDANCE.
