AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BINGHAMTON NY
1211 PM EDT TUE MAY 29 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL RUN INTO A VERY WARM AND HUMID UNSTABLE AIR
MASS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THUNDERSTORMS WILL RESULT...SOME
OF WHICH COULD BE SEVERE WITH GUSTY WINDS AND HAIL. DRIER AIR
WILL FILL IN BEHIND THE COLD FRONT TONIGHT...BUT A SECOND FRONT
WILL STILL BRING A SLIGHT CHANCE OF A SHOWER WEDNESDAY. EVEN
COOLER TEMPERATURES WILL FOLLOW FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH
THURSDAY NIGHT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
1030 AM UPDATE...AFTER SOME EARLY MORNING CONVECTION NEAR THE TUG
HILL PLATEAU...FULL HEATING OCCURRING AREAWIDE WITH NEARLY CLOUD
FREE SKY. THIS ALONG WITH WEAK CAP EVIDENT IN MODELS /MOST CLEARLY
IN RUC/ AND BUF 12Z SOUNDING WILL SERVE TO ENHANCE INSTABILITY FOR
REMAINDER OF THE DAY. MESOANALYSIS REVEALS CAPES ALREADY IN EXCESS
OF 2000 J/KG IN SOME LOCATIONS...WHILE CAP IS BEGINNING TO WEAKEN
AND 500MB HEIGHT FALLS ARE OCCURRING. CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURE IN
BUF SOUNDING WAS 87 DEGREES...SYRACUSE AS OF 10 AM WAS ALREADY
HITTING IT. SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH HAS JUST BEEN ISSUED
INCLUDING SEVERAL OF OUR NORTHWESTERN ZONES...AND WE FIGURE THAT
IT IS LIKELY THAT THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA COULD BE PLACED IN A
LATER WATCH.

FORECAST HAS BEEN UPDATED TO PLACE DETERMINISTIC POPS ON EXPECTED
CONVECTIVE EVOLUTION THROUGH TONIGHT. FIRST FEATURE OF NOTE IS A
WEAK VORTICITY LOBE THAT IS SET TO PASS THROUGH /AS DEPICTED BY
WRF-ARW VORTICITY FIELD AND HRRR QPF FIELD/ 16Z WEST TO 20Z EAST.
GIVEN GREAT DIURNAL HEATING TIMING AND WEAKENING CAP...THIS
FEATURE ALOFT SHOULD TIP THE SCALE AND RESULT IN AND ORGANIZED
CONVECTIVE LINE. GOOD DEEP LAYER SHEAR EXISTS FOR DAMAGING WINDS
AS A MAIN THREAT...WITH FAT CAPES BLASTING THROUGH AND BEYOND
MINUS-20 CELSIUS LEVEL...SUPPORTIVE OF LARGE HAIL. DIRECTIONAL
SHEAR IS PRETTY MUDDLED...BUT COULD BE ENOUGH FOR AT LEAST WEAK
MESOCYCLONES FOR ANY DISCRETE CELLS AHEAD OF MAIN LINE...OR
INTERSECTIONS OF BOWING SEGMENTS. CONVECTIVE PARAMETERS
OVERALL...COMPARED TO OUR DATABASE OF PAST EVENTS...ARE SUPPORTIVE
OF AT LEAST BROKEN LINES WITH BOWING SEGMENTS...WITH AT LEAST
SPORADIC DAMAGING WIND REPORTS IF NOT MORE ORGANIZED.

THIS IS NOT QUITE SO SIMPLE AS A SINGLE CONVECTIVE
LINE...HOWEVER. THE ACTUAL SURFACE FRONT LINGERS BEHIND...SET TO
ARRIVE 20Z OR SO WEST TO 01Z EAST. SOME MODELS SUGGEST THAT A
SECOND LINE COULD DEVELOP ALONG THIS SURFACE
CONVERGENCE. MESOSCALE INFLUENCES WILL DICTATE HOW QUICKLY AND HOW
WELL THIS SECONDARY LINE WILL ORGANIZE...INCLUDING INFLUENCES IN
WAKE OF FIRST LINE /THAT IS...HOW MUCH OF THE INSTABILITY IS USED
UP/. POPS HAVE BEEN UPDATED FOR THIS POTENTIAL SECOND BATCH...AND
ALSO CLEANED OUT LATER THIS EVENING AS CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY SHOULD
QUICKLY END BEHIND THE SURFACE FEATURE TONIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
4 AM UPDATE...
CAA AND DRYING WILL OCCUR THROUGHOUT THE SHORT TERM. WEDNESDAY A
WEAK SECONDARY COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH BUT MOISTURE WILL BE
WANING. SOME DIURNAL SHOWERS AND MAYBE A THUNDERSTORM MOSTLY
ACROSS THE TERRAIN. WED NGT MOSTLY PRECIP FREE AND COLDER WITH
MINS IN THE 50S TO A60. WITH DRYING FOG WILL NOT BE WIDESPREAD.

THURSDAY AGAIN COOLER. WEAK FORCING AND NW FLOW COULD CAUSE SOME
SHOWERS IN CENTRAL NY BUT ONLY SCHC. THURSDAY NIGHT LOWS IN THE
LOW AND MID 40S BEFORE TEMPERATURES MODERATE IN THE LONG TERM.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...

XTNDD PD FEATURES A LRG UPR LOW BRINGING UNSETTLED WX TO THE FCST
AREA. SFC FNTL BNDRY PASSES LATE FRI OR EARLY SAT USHERING IN
COOLER AIR AS THE UPR LOW SETTLES OVER THE ERN GREAT LAKES. AFT A
BRIEF PD OF DRY WX DIRECTLY BHD THE FNT...MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH
THE UPR LOW ROTATES INTO THE FCST AREA AND LINGERS THRU MUCH OF
THE PD. DAYTIME TEMPS WILL BE BLO NRML WITH H8 TEMPS TO ARND 8C.
LOW BEGINS TO LIFT LATE IN THE PD...BUT WAA MAY GENERATE A FEW
SHWRS THRU MON.

WITH ONGOING SVR WX...RELIED ON HPC GUID FOR MUCH OF THE XTNDD
PD...WITH ONLY A FEW MINOR ADJUSTMENTS.

&&

.AVIATION /16Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
FOG DID NOT DEVELOP THIS MORNING AS TEMPERATURES UNEXPECTEDLY ROSE
OVERNIGHT, INCREASING DEWPOINT DEPRESSIONS. THE MAIN CONCERN NOW
TURNS TO CONVECTION.

SCATTERED CONVECTION IS EXPECTED FROM JUST NORTH OF SYR TO JUST
NORTH OF RME THROUGH MID MORNING. THEREAFTER CONVECTION WILL
INCREASE IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY.

THE BEST CHANCE FOR CONVECTION WILL BE BETWEEN 17Z AND 23Z.
THUNDERSTORMS WILL PRODUCE HAIL, HEAVY RAIN, AND GUSTY WINDS.
TEMPORARY MVFR RESTRICTIONS ARE EXPECTED IN THUNDERSTORMS.
