The episode as NWS OKX wrote it up.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
530 PM EDT SUN JUN 3 2012
.SYNOPSIS...
AN OFFSHORE LOW MOVES FARTHER AWAY AND DEEPENS THIS EVENING. A
TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE APPROACHES FROM THE NORTH AND MOVES THROUGH
ON MONDAY. THE LOWS MERGE AND MEANDER SOUTHEAST OF NOVA SCOTIA
MONDAY NIGHT. AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL REMAIN ANCHORED OVER THE
REGION FOR MOST OF THE WORK WEEK. A WARMING TREND WILL THEN
DEVELOP INTO THE WEEKEND.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
UPPER LEVEL LOW APPROACHES NORTHEAST NEW JERSEY THROUGH TONIGHT.
CAPE ON THE ORDER OF MOSTLY 500 TO 1000 J/KG WILL LOWER LATER THIS
EVENING TO MAINLY SOUTH OF LONG ISLAND. AT THE SURFACE...AN
OFFSHORE LOW MOVES FARTHER AWAY AND DEEPENS AND A TROUGH OF LOW
PRESSURE APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. THERE IS A WESTERLY LOW LEVEL
JET OF ABOUT 30 KT THAT MOVES ACROSS THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING.
MODEL SOUNDINGS HAVE INVERTED V SIGNATURE.
ON RADAR...HAVE A BROKEN LINE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MOVING
THROUGH. SOME ENHANCEMENT OF CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY HAS OCCURRED
ALONG SEA BREEZE BOUNDARIES. WITH THESE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS...GUSTY WINDS AND SOME SMALL HAIL STILL CAN BE
EXPECTED. THE WET BULB ZERO HEIGHTS ARE STILL LOW BETWEEN 7 AND
8 KFT.
WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING...TRANSITION TO JUST ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS AND THEN SOUTH OF LONG ISLAND LATER THIS EVENING
WHERE MOST CAPE WILL STILL BE. WITH THE UPPER LEVEL LOW MOVING
IN...LEFT IN CHANCE POPS FOR LATE TONIGHT AND OVERNIGHT.
HOWEVER...HRRR DOES SHOW A LULL IN SHOWER ACTIVITY AFTER THIS
EVENING. AT THE MOMENT...TOO LOW CONFIDENCE TO GO WITH ISOLATED
LATE TONIGHT. THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL DIMINISHES LATE WITH MORE
NORTHWARD TURN OF WINDS.
LOWS TAKEN FROM THE WARMER MET GUIDANCE AND SFC TEMPS OF NAM12
WITH MOISTURE AND CLOUDS KEEPING TEMPS UP.
THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS THROUGH THE EVENING.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
UPPER LEVEL LOW OPENS UP AND MERGES WITH LOW CENTER SOUTHEAST OF
NOVA SCOTIA. AT THE SURFACE...TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WEAKENS AND
MERGES WITH LOW OFFSHORE OF NOVA SCOTIA. LOW MEANDERS SOUTHEAST OF
NOVA SCOTIA MONDAY NIGHT.
FLOW TURNS NORTHEASTERLY. CAPE IS VERY LOW AND ONLY GETS TO
SEVERAL HUNDRED J/KG AT BEST NEAR NORTHEAST NJ. THEREFORE JUST
HAVE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS THERE AND DID NOT MENTION THEM FOR
EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST REGION. FOLLOWED ALONG THE POP
FIELDS OF THE SREF AND EXPECTING MOSTLY SHOWERS FOR MOST OF THE
DAY...LIKELY BY MID AFTERNOON. TOTAL RAIN NOT THAT MUCH WITH
GENERALLY LESS THAN QUARTER OF AN INCH. WENT WITH LOWER TEMPS OF
MET AND NAM12 WITH COOLER AIR GETTING ADVECTED ON STRENGTHENING NE
FLOW. JET STREAM DIPS TO SOUTH OF REGION WITH COOLER MARITIME
AIRMASS IN PLACE.
SHOWER ACTIVITY DECREASES MONDAY NIGHT WITH UPPER LEVEL LOW
WEAKENING AND A NORTHERLY FLOW CONTINUING. WARMER MET GUIDANCE WAS
USED AGAIN. NOT MUCH DIURNAL TEMPERATURE RANGE WITH MARITIME
AIRMASS.
THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS AT ATLANTIC OCEAN BEACHES
ON MONDAY.
&&
.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
MODELS CONTINUE TO KEEP THE H5 TROF OVER THE REGION THRU THU. THIS
WILL PRODUCE ROUNDS OF SCT SHRA/TSTMS DURING PEAK HEATING TUE-THU.
COVERAGE MAY BE A BIT HIGHER ON WED WITH A SPOKE OF SHRTWV ENERGY
ROTATING SWD THRU THE AREA. TOO FAR OUT HOWEVER TO HAVE TOTAL
CONFIDENCE IN THIS EXACT TIMING OF THE FEATURE. FCST INDICATES SCT
ACTIVITY MAINLY DURING THE AFTN AND EARLY EVE EACH DAY...WITH A FEW
LINGERING SHRA INTO THE OVERNIGHT. EXCEPTION IS TUE...WHERE RESIDUAL
-SHRA COULD LINGER IN THE MRNG DUE TO THE INTENSE COLD POOL
ALOFT...H85 TEMPS AROUND 3C...AND DPVA.
RISING HEIGHTS ON FRI. THIS WILL LIMIT THE LAPSE RATES AND ALLOW FOR
AN UPTICK IN TEMPS. PCPN COVERAGE LIMITED TO ISOLD. PEAK TIME AGAIN
DURING THE AFTN AND EARLY EVE.
H5 RIDGE AXIS ROTATES EWD INTO THE CWA FOR SAT PER THE GFS. ECMWF
HOLDS BACK THE RIDGE. FCST KEPT DRY FOR NOW AS THE GFS HAS BEEN
CONSISTENT...BUT THERE IS ROOM FOR ADJUSTMENT SHOULD THE PATTERN IN
THE ECMWF VERIFY.
TEMPS TUE A BLEND OF THE MAV/MET...WITH THE MEX/MEN BLEND USED FOR
HIGHS WED-SAT. LOWS WED NGT AND BEYOND CLOSE TO THE BCGMOS. MOST
SPOTS AWAY FROM THE IMMEDIATE SHORE COULD HIT 80 ON FRI...WITH A
BETTER CHANCE ON SAT.
&&
.AVIATION /21Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE APPROACHES TONIGHT. A WEAK FRONT MOVES
FROM NORTH TO SOUTH TONIGHT.
KEEPING AN EYE OUT FOR THUNDERSTORMS IN THE NEAR TERM. ORGANIZED
LINE MOVES E OF KGON AROUND 22Z. ANOTHER CLUSTER CURRENTLY IN NYC
WILL TRACK ACROSS LI...POSSIBLY IMPACTING KISP IF IT HOLDS
TOGETHER...AROUND 22Z. POTENTIALLY ONE MORE ROUND OF SCT SHOWERS
WITH EMBEDDED TSTMS IMPACTING WESTERN TERMINALS BETWEEN 22Z AND
01Z AS THEY PRESS ESE FROM EASTERN PA/NY. GUSTY WINDS THE MAIN
ISSUE AS DRY AIR IN THE LOWER LEVELS SHOULD PREVENT SUB VFR
CIGS. VSBYS MAY DROP TO MVFR/IFR IF A HEAVIER SHOWER/TSTM MOVES
DIRECTLY OVER AN AIRFIELD...BUT COVERAGE IS TOO SPARSE TO INDICATE
AT THIS TIME.
OTHERWISE...GENERALLY VFR. LOW CONFIDENCE WIND FORECAST WITH SFC
TROUGH TO THE N AND RIDGE TO THE W. WINDS HAVE BACKED TO THE SW AT
NYC TERMINALS AND KBDR WHILE THE REST OF THE AREA REMAINS W-NW.
WINDS SHOULD VEER BACK TO THE W-NW AS TROUGH SAGS SWD AND THEN
N-NE BEHIND IT AFTER MIDNIGHT THROUGH MON MORNING.
ALL INDICATIONS WERE FOR INCREASING GUSTY WINDS THIS EVE...BUT
THEY'VE ACTUALLY HAVE DIMINISHED. WILL GIVE IT ANOTHER HOUR AND
THEN WILL AMEND ACCORDINGLY.
CEILINGS DO DROP...POSSIBLY TO MVFR OR 2-3 KFT LATER TONIGHT. A
BETTER CHANCE FOR SHOWERS OCCURS LATE TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY
MORNING.
.OUTLOOK FOR 18Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
.MONDAY AFTERNOON-WEDNESDAY...MOSTLY VFR...BUT BRIEF MVFR OR LOWER
CONDS ARE POSSIBLE FROM ISOLD/SCT SHOWERS/TSTMS...MAINLY IN THE
AFT/EARLY EVE HOURS.
.WEDNESDAY NIGHT-FRIDAY...VFR.
&&
.MARINE...
WITH WESTERLY LOW LEVEL JET MOVING ACROSS THIS EVENING AND SHOWER
ACTIVITY EXPECTED TO CONTINUE...WENT WITH SHORT FUSED SCA FOR THE
EVENING HOURS FOR THE OCEAN. WAVEWATCH BRINGS OCEAN SEAS BACK UP
TO 5 FT LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING AS WELL. OTHER WATERS
COULD SEE 25 KT GUSTS AS WELL...BUT FREQUENCY SEEMED SHORT ENOUGH
AND MORE WITH INDIVIDUAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO KEEP THEM
OUT OF SCA.
AFTER LOWERING WINDS LATER TONIGHT AND MONDAY MORNING...NE WINDS
INCREASE LATE IN THE DAY INTO THE EVENING AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT
TIGHTENS BETWEEN A LOW SOUTHEAST OF NOVA SCOTIA AND WEAK HIGH
TOWARDS THE GREAT LAKES. ANOTHER SCA COULD BE NEEDED FOR THE
EASTERN OCEAN WATERS LATE IN THE DAY. THE OCEAN WATERS WOULD THEN
LIKELY HAVE SCA CONDITIONS MONDAY NIGHT INTO A PORTION OF TUESDAY.
WITH A FAVORABLE WIND DIRECTION...THE LONG ISLAND SOUND COULD
POSSIBLY REQUIRE A SCA MONDAY NIGHT.
NE WINDS WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH ON TUE. WINDS WILL BE QUICK TO FALL
BLW SCA LVLS...BUT SEAS WILL BE SLOWER TO SUBSIDE ON THE OCEAN. ALL
AREAS BLW SCA LVLS WED...WITH THESE CONDITIONS CONTINUING THRU FRI.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS ARE POSSIBLE WITH ANY THUNDERSTORMS
THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING BUT WIDESPREAD SIGNIFICANT
PRECIPITATION NOT EXPECTED THROUGH MON NIGHT.
WIDESPREAD SIGNIFICANT PCPN IS NOT EXPECTED TUE-SAT...WITH MAINLY
SCT ACTIVITY EXPECTED THRU THU..AND ISOLD ACTIVITY ON FRI.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
MINOR COASTAL FLOODING IS EXPECTED ONCE AGAIN DURING THIS EVENING/S
HIGH TIDE...DUE TO HIGH ASTRONOMICAL TIDES AND RESTRICTED TIDAL
DRAINAGE.
THE POTENTIAL FOR MINOR TO LOCALLY MODERATE COASTAL FLOODING WILL
INCREASE FOR MONDAY NIGHT HIGH TIDES AND LIKELY CONTINUE FOR TUESDAY
NIGHT HIGH TIDES AS ASTRONOMICAL HIGH TIDES PEAK AND LOW PRESSURE
STRENGTHENS OFF THE COAST.
