AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
509 PM EDT THU JUN 9 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
BERMUDA HIGH OVER THE ATLANTIC WILL CONTINUE TO BRING HOT AND HUMID
CONDITIONS ACROSS THE AREA. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE
REGION TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING. THIS FRONT WILL STALL SOUTH
OF THE AREA ON FRIDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE SLIDES TO OUR NORTH. A WARM
FRONT APPROACHES ON SATURDAY AND PASSING JUST NORTH OF THE
REGION EARLY SUNDAY. A COLD FRONT PASSES THROUGH LATE SUNDAY
FOLLOWED BY HIGH PRESSURE FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK. LOW PRESSURE
APPROACHES FROM THE GREAT LAKES ON THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 10 PM THIS EVENING/...
WITH THE LINE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MOVING INTO THE CWA
HAVE UPPED THE POPS TO CATEGORICAL AND LIKELY INTO EARLY THIS
EVENING...00Z. AND WITH THE WATCH UP CONTINUED THE ENHANCED
WORDING. HAVE RECEIVED REPORTS OF LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.

SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH #452 IN EFFECT FOR OUR ENTIRE FORECAST
AREA THROUGH 10 PM EDT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH LARGE HAIL
AND DAMAGING WINDS.

A LINE OF RAPIDLY INTENSIFYING TSTMS MOVING SOUTHEAST ACROSS
SOUTH CENTRAL NEW YORK IS EXPECTED TO IMPACT THE LOCAL AREA BY 6
PM THIS AFTERNOON. AHEAD OF THIS LINE A FEW POP UP SCT
THUNDERSTORMS HAVE ALREADY BEGUN TO DEVELOP. DUE TO THE
INSTABILITY OVER THE AREA...ANY STORMS THAT DEVELOP HAVE THE
POTENTIAL TO BECOME SEVERE...BUT WITH THE BULK OF THE FORCING WELL
NORTH OF THE REGION...WILL CONTINUE TO CARRY CHANCE POPS. TSTMS
WILL DIMINISH AS THEY MOVE OFFSHORE LATE THIS EVENING.

HEAT ADVISORY REMAINS UP FOR NYC AND MOST OF NE NJ THROUGH THIS
EVENING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /10 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TAPER OFF THROUGH THIS EVENING...AND
COLD FRONT SAGS SOUTH OF THE REGION BY LATE TONIGHT AND STALL
SOUTH OF THE REGION. WITH NORTHERLY WINDS AND A COOLER...LESS
HUMID AIRMASS BEGINS TO BUILD INTO THE REGION. LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS
OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC ON FRIDAY...AND SOME DEVELOPING SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BEGIN TO PUSH EASTWARD TOWARDS WESTERN PORTIONS
OF THE FORECAST AREA. TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY WILL BE SEVERAL
DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL...TOPPING OFF IN THE MID-UPPER 80S IN/AROUND
NYC AND IN THE LOW TO MID 80S ELSEWHERE. HIGHS WILL BE IN THE 70S
ALONG THE COAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
UPPER LOW OVER SOUTHERN ONTARIO SATURDAY SLIDES EAST SOUTHEAST TO
NEAR OTTAWA SUNDAY EVENING. THE TROUGH THEN SHARPENS EARLY IN THE
WEEK AS IT PRESSES SOUTHEAST ACROSS NEW ENGLAND ON MONDAY. RIDGING
BUILDS IN ON TUESDAY CONTINUING INTO WEDNESDAY. ANOTHER SHORT WAVE
APPROACHES LATE THURSDAY.

LATEST 09Z SREF AND 12Z DETERMINISTIC NCEP RUNS SHOW GOOD AGREEMENT
IN THE SYNOPTIC SCALE MASS FIELDS THROUGH SUNDAY. UPPER LOW DRIVES
SURFACE LOW FROM LAKE HURON ON SATURDAY INTO QUEBEC ON SUNDAY.
SURFACE FRONT TO THE SOUTH ALONG THE DELMARVA SATURDAY MORNING WORKS
ITS WAY NORTH WITH ESE SURFACE FLOW THROUGH THE AFTN TO A POSITION
OFF THE SOUTH JERSEY COAST. THUS...WITH OVER-RUNNING AND ESE LOW
LEVEL FLOW...EXPECTING A CLOUDY DAY GOOD THREAT OF SHOWERS AND A
CHANCE FOR ELEVATED CONVECTION AS SOUNDINGS SHOWING UP TO A 1000
J/KG OF ELEVATED CAPE. RIDGING FROM HIGH OVER THE GULF OF MAINE
SHOULD LIMIT EASTERN SECTIONS TO CHC POPS.

WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTH OVERNIGHT WITH CONTINUED LIKELY POPS.
THINKING IS THAT THE TRAILING COLD FRONT COMES ACROSS ON SUNDAY. NAM
IS FASTER WITH THIS THAN GFS...BUT THIS IS WELL WITHIN THE SPREAD OF
UNCERTAINTY SEEN IN THE SREF. THUS...WE KEEP THE LIKELY POP GOING
THROUGH THE DAY ON SUNDAY.  WHILE IT CLEARLY WILL NOT RAIN THE
ENTIRE WEEKEND...DO NOT FEEL IT IS POSSIBLE TRY TO TIME OUT THE
PERIODS OF PCPN THAT WILL AFFECT US...OR ATTEMPT TO DO SUCH AT THIS
TIME. IN FACT...EXPECT THERE TO BE SIGNIFICANT PERIODS OF DRY WX.
SO...WOULD NOT CANCEL OUTDOOR PLANS FOR THE WEEKEND...BUT BE
THINKING OF A CONTINGENCY AND CHECK BACK TOMORROW AND THROUGH THE
WEEKEND FOR FCST UPDATES.

COLD ADVECTION ON MONDAY WITH UPPER TROUGH PASSAGE. INCREASED THE
CUMULUS IN THE AFTERNOON...WITH SLIGHT CHANCE FOR SHOWERS DUE TO
STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES...SUBSIDENCE ALOFT WOULD SUPPRESS THE
TSTM POTENTIAL.

SW OVERRUNNING SETS UP ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH WARM FRONT LIFTING
NORTH EARLY ON THURSDAY AS SURFACE LOW PRESSURE PASSES NORTH. CHC
POPS USED.

TEMPS THROUGH THE PERIOD ARE CLOSE TO SEASONABLE AND MOS GUIDANCE.
DID LOWER TEMPS FROM GUIDANCE SLIGHTLY ON SATURDAY DUE TO CLOUD
COVER...PCPN AND SOUTHEAST FLOW.

&&

.AVIATION /21Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION FROM THE WEST THIS EVENING.

EXPECT SCATTERED SHOWERS/TSTMS THROUGH 01-02Z. SOME OF THESE
STORMS WILL BE QUITE STRONG. SUB VFR CONDITIONS LIKELY...WITH
BRIEF LIFR OR VLIFR.

IN TERMS OF WINDS...SEA BREEZE HAS DEVELOPED OVER COASTAL
TERMINALS WITH S FLOW...AND GENERAL SW FLOW HAS DEVELOPED INLAND.
GUSTS ARE LIKELY AS WINDS ALOFT INCREASE. THIS GENERAL FLOW MAY
BE DISRUPTED AS TIMES BY OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES FROM DISTANT TSTMS
WITH WIND DIRECTIONS CHANGING QUICKLY OR BECOMING VARIABLE.

COLD FRONT MOVES TONIGHT...WITH VFR CONDITIONS PREVAILING AND
WINDS BECOMING NW.
