NWS New York, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at May 26, 2:33 PM EST, 1 hour 11 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY 333 PM EDT SAT MAY 26 2012 .SYNOPSIS... A COLD FRONT MOVES JUST SOUTH OF THE AREA THIS EVENING. THE FRONT BECOMES STATIONARY SOUTH OF THE AREA TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY BEFORE LIFTING NORTH AS A WARM FRONT LATE SUNDAY INTO MONDAY. A COLD FRONT APPROACHES TUESDAY AND MOVES THROUGH LATE TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY STALLS WELL OFFSHORE FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY WITH DISTURBANCES RIDING ALONG THE FRONT INTO THE WEEKEND. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRIEFLY FOLLOW WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/... LINGERING CONVECTION SHOULD DIMINISH IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY THIS EVENING. THE COLD FRONT...WITH LOW DEW POINT AIR BEHIND...WILL SLOWLY SETTLE TO THE SOUTH. HOWEVER...THIS FRONT WILL NOT MOVE FAR...AND A FEW SHOWERS COULD REMAIN IN THE VICINITY OF THE FRONT OVERNIGHT. TEMPS WILL BE QUITE MILD THOUGH...AS ANY COOLER AIR TAKES SOME TIME TO FILTER IN BEHIND THE FRONT. MOS IN GOOD AGREEMENT AND FOLLOWED CLOSELY...UPPER 50S TO THE NORTH AND 60S ELSEWHERE. THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF STRONGER AND MORE FREQUENT RIP CURRENTS ACROSS ALL THE OCEAN BEACHES THIS EVENING. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY/... MODELS IN GENERAL AGREEMENT THIS TIME FRAME. OVERALL...NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT AS RIDGE SLOWLY BUILDS IN TIME. THE FRONT THAT SETTLED JUST SOUTH WILL EVENTUALLY MOVE NORTHWARD LATE SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT...THEN REMAIN JUST TO OUR NORTH AND EAST MONDAY. FOR SUNDAY...EAST TO SOUTHEAST FLOW WILL ENSURE MARINE LAYER ACROSS A GOOD PORTION OF THE CWA...EXCEPT FOR EXTREME WESTERN SECTIONS. AS SUCH...EXPECT SLIGHTLY COOLER TEMPS SUNDAY...AND SLIGHTLY DRIER AIR. HOWEVER...ONCE THIS FRONT DOES INDEED MOVE NORTHWARD...MORE HUMID AIR SWEEPS BACK IN SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY. AREA WILL BE WARM SECTORED MONDAY...WITH SOUTHWEST FLOW AND HUMID CONDITIONS. IN FACT TEMPS AWAY FROM THE WATERS WILL APPROACH OR REACH 90 DEGREES. MID/UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE RIDING ALONG THE NW FLOW COULD TRIGGER A FEW SHOWERS AND TSTMS DURING THIS TIME FRAME. IT IS HARD TO RULE OUT SOME CONVECTION AT ANY TIME SUNDAY AND MONDAY...BUT COVERAGE SHOULD REMAIN SCATTERED AND MAINLY DIURNALLY DRIVEN. BY TUESDAY...A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST AS MID/UPPER TROUGH MAKES EASTWARD PROGRESS. CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND TSTMS ARE EXPECTED ONCE AGAIN TUESDAY. && .LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/... MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH COLD FRONT CONTINUING TO APPROACH AND BEGINNING TO MOVE THROUGH THE REGION TUESDAY NIGHT. SOME INSTABILITY NOTED IN THE MODELS...ESPECIALLY EARLY IN THE NIGHT. COLD FRONT COULD PROVIDE ENOUGH LIFT TO ALLOW FOR SOME THUNDERSTORMS TO MOVE THROUGH WHICH COULD CONTINUE INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT. MODELS DIFFER A BIT BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THE ECMWF IS MORE PROGRESSIVE WITH WHAT WILL BE THE REMNANTS OF BERYL AND TRACKS IT UP ALONG THE STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY PASSING SOUTH AND EAST OF LONG ISLAND...WHILE THE GFS KEEPS THE REMNANTS OF BERYL OVER THE SOUTHEAST US COAST...KEEPING IT WELL SOUTH OF THE AREA...MUCH FARTHER OFFSHORE THAN THE ECMWF. THE TRACK OF THIS SYSTEM WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED...IT WILL BE DEPENDENT ON HOW STRONG THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL BE AS IT APPROACHES THE NORTHEAST TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THURSDAY SHOULD BE RELATIVELY QUIET AS FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS OFFSHORE WITHOUT ANY DISTURBANCE TRACKING ALONG IT...BUT CANNOT RULE OUT A THUNDERSTORM. IT BECOMES UNSETTLED FOR FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND WITH THE APPROACH OF ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND FRONTAL SYSTEM. && .AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON...THEN STALL THROUGH TOMORROW. MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED...WITH POSSIBLE MVFR IN ANY TSTORM DEVELOPMENT THIS AFTN...AND FG DEVELOPMENT TONIGHT. SCT CU WITH SCT TO BKN HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS MOVING IN FROM THE WEST. TSTORM DEVELOPING OVER EASTERN PA MAY PROGRESS TO THE EAST THROUGH 22Z...BUT WITH CONFIDENCE LOW ON ACTUAL COVERAGE...WILL MAINTAIN ONLY A TEMPO FOR CITY AND WEST TAF SITES. WINDS AROUND 10 KTS TODAY WITH LIGHT AND VRB TONIGHT AS THE FRONT PASSES. HIGHER GUSTS POSSIBLE IN ANY TSTMS. WINDS SHIFT TO THE NE BEHIND THE FRONT TNGT. .OUTLOOK FOR 18Z SUN THROUGH THU... .SUN...SCT TSTMS MAINLY IN THE AFTN INLAND...BUT CONTINUING INTO THE OVERNIGHT. .MON...SCT TSTMS MAINLY IN THE AFTN INLAND. .TUE...IFR POSSIBLE WITH SOUTHERLY FLOW. SCT SHRA AND TSTMS. .WED...MORNING SHRA/TSTM...THEN BECOMING VFR. .THU...MAINLY VFR...WITH POSS SHRA/TSTM IN THE AFTN. && .MARINE... LIGHT SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST FLOW THIS EVENING AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT WILL SHIFT AROUND TO THE NORTH/NORTHEAST AFTER MIDNIGHT. THIS FRONT REMAINS NEARBY...WITH EAST FLOW SUNDAY MORNING. THEN WINDS TURN TOWARD THE SOUTHEAST AND SOUTH LATER SUNDAY AS THE FRONT MOVES NORTH. THEREAFTER...SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST FLOW EXPECTED MONDAY INTO TUESDAY AS THE WARM FRONT REMAINS NORTH OF THE WATERS. A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST TUESDAY...AND SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL INCREASE. AS FR SEAS...SWELL FROM BERYLE COULD RESULT IN A SLIGHT BUILDUP OF SEAS TONIGHT. WILL HOLD OFF THOUGH ON ANY ADVISORIES AT THIS TIME. THEN SEAS SHOULD BUILD TUESDAY AS THE WINDS INCREASE. WAVES SHOULD REMAIN AT AROUND 5 FT FOR OCEAN WATERS THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT ON A SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW OUT AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT. COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...ALLOWING WAVES TO FALL BELOW 5 FT BY THURSDAY. GUSTS OVER THE OCEAN WATERS TUESDAY NIGHT COULD REACH 25 KT...BUT SHOULD FALL BELOW THEREAFTER. WINDS COULD BUILD TO 5 FT AGAIN ON THE OCEAN WATERS THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY...BUT WIND GUSTS SHOULD REMAIN BELOW 25 KT OVER ALL WATERS. && .HYDROLOGY... ANY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS INTO THIS EVENING HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS...AND THUS URBAN/POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING. SCATTERED TO ISOLATED CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE REGION FROM SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY AS A WARM FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE AREA. THERE WILL BE A POTENTIAL FOR LOCALIZED HEAVY RAINFALL AS STORMS WILL BE SLOW MOVING. THERE IS A BETTER CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ON TUESDAY. && .OKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
