AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
154 PM EDT TUE JUN 18 2013
.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT SLOWLY PUSHES SOUTH THROUGH THE TRI STATE AREA TODAY
THROUGH TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN BEHIND THE FRONT THROUGH
THE END OF THE WEEK. A WARM FRONT MAY PASS THROUGH THE REGION
SUNDAY OR MONDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS INDICATES A WEAK TROUGH OVER THE REGION
WITH A WEAK WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE LOCATED OVER THE DELMARVA AREA. A
COLD FRONT IS ALSO SLOWLY MOVING INTO THE REGION FROM THE NORTH.
ALOFT...A SHORTWAVE IS APPROACHING WITH THE OUR CWA NEAR THE
RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF AN UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK. THESE
CONDITIONS HAVE COMBINED TO DEVELOP SHOWERS AND TSTMS ACROSS
CENTRAL NEW JERSEY AND EASTERN PA. SHOWERS AND TSTMS ALSO
DEVELOPING ACROSS THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY. EXPECT THIS TREND TO
CONTINUE HEADING INTO THE AFTERNOON AS 16Z SPC MESOANALYSIS
INDICATES AS 1000 TO 2000 J/KG OF CAPE ACROSS WESTERN ZONES AND UP
TO 1000 J/KG FURTHER EAST.
PRECIPITABLE WATERS FROM 1.4 TO 1.6 INCHES FORECAST THIS AFTERNOON
BY MOST MODEL GUIDANCE. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL IS POSSIBLE IN ANY
THUNDERSTORMS WHICH COULD LEAD TO URBAN AND SMALL STREAM FLOODING.
1 HOUR FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE ACROSS NE NJ IS FROM ABOUT 0.7 TO 1
INCHES. IN ADDITION...STRONGEST STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF
PRODUCING GUSTY WINDS.
ALSO ADJUSTED HIGH TEMPERATURES UPWARD IN LATEST UPDATE DUE TO SOME
OF THE CLEARING SEEN EARLIER THIS MORNING ALLOWING TEMPERATURES TO
RISE MORE THAN EXPECTED AT THE COAST. HOWEVER...HIGHS FOR THE DAY
HAVE LIKELY BEEN REACHED AS CLOUD COVER IS FILLING BACK IN AND
WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVERSPREADING THE AREA.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
THE COLD FRONT CONTINUES TO DRIFT SOUTH...MOVING COMPLETELY OFFSHORE
PROBABLY DURING THE EVENING HOURS. STILL ENOUGH LIFT...CAPE AND
SHEAR FOR STRONG TO POSSIBLY SEVERE TSTMS. RAIN CHANCES THEN
DIMINISH OVERNIGHT WITH THE FRONT OFFSHORE AND HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDING IN BEHIND IT.
LOOKS LIKE THE FRONT SHOULD BE JUST FAR ENOUGH OFFSHORE BY DAYBREAK
ON WEDNESDAY TO KEEP SHOWER CHANCES OUT OF THE FORECAST. A TROUGH
AXIS ALOFT AND ACCOMPANYING SHORTWAVE SHIFTS IN DURING THE
AFTERNOON...BUT IT LOOKS LIKE MOISTURE WILL BE DEEP ENOUGH ONLY FOR
SOME CLOUD BUILDUP IN SPOTS. IT SHOULD FEEL LESS MUGGY WITH DEW
POINTS IN THE 50S AND HIGHS MOSTLY 75-80.
&&
.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
MODELS IN DECENT AGREEMENT WITH MEAN TROUGHING CONTINUING OVER THE
NORTHEAST THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK...WITH CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE
GRADUALLY BUILDING INTO THE REGION AND IN CONTROL THROUGH SATURDAY.
THIS WILL RESULT IN FAIR AND SEASONABLE WARM CONDITIONS THROUGH THE
PERIOD. WEAK PIECES OF SHORTWAVE ENERGY ROUNDING THE BASE OF THE
TROUGH COULD SET OFF ISOLATED PULSE SHRA/TSRA ACTIVITY FRI AND
SAT AFT/EVE...PARTICULARLY OFF THE NW HIGHER ELEVATIONS.
HEIGHTS APPEAR TO BUILD THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...WITH A
TREND TOWARDS MORE SUMMER LIKE WEATHER. THIS WOULD ALSO BRING
POTENTIAL FOR MCS ACTIVITY AS A WARM FRONT WORKS INTO THE VICINITY
OF THE REGION AND THE AREA LIES ON THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF THE
WESTERLIES.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
A COLD FRONT ACROSS SOUTHERN CONNECTICUT...THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY
TO NORTHERN PENNSYLVANIA WILL MOVE SLOWLY TO THE SOUTH THROUGH EARLY
THIS EVENING AS A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE MOVES OFF THE MID ATLANTIC
COAST. THE LOW MOVES WELL SOUTH OF THE AREA OVERNIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS IN FROM THE WEST WEDNESDAY.
VFR. THERE IS A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS 19Z THROUGH 01Z.
THE CONVECTION WILL BE SCATTERED AND ANY STORM WILL BE CAPABLE OF
HEAVY RAIN AND WIND GUSTS TO AROUND 35 KT. BRIEF MARGINAL VFR TO IFR
CONDITIONS POSSIBLE IN THE STRONGER STORMS.
SOUTHERLY WIND AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL SHIFT TO THE NORTH BEHIND THE
FRONT. LOWER LEVELS SHOULD DRY OUT AND NORTHERLY WIND WILL BE STRONG
ENOUGH SO NOT EXPECTING STRATUS AND FOG TO DEVELOP. NORTHERLY WIND
CONTINUES WEDNESDAY INCREASING TO AROUND 12KT. THERE IS A CHANCE OF
SOME GUSTS 10Z TO 15Z BUT CONFIDENCE AND FREQUENCY IS LOW.

.SATURDAY NIGHT-SUNDAY...CHANCE OF RAIN WITH MVFR CONDITIONS.
&&
.MARINE...
TRANQUIL CONDITIONS ON ALL WATERS WITH WINDS AT 10 KT OR LESS
TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT. WINDS PICK UP ON WEDNESDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS IN BEHIND A DEPARTING COLD FRONT. WINDS ON THE OCEAN COULD
GUST TO JUST BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CRITERIA...BUT THIS WOULD
BE FOR ONLY A RELATIVELY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. WINDS SHOULD
SUBSIDE A LITTLE BY THE END OF THE DAY.
MAINLY SUB SCA CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED FOR THE LATE WEEK INTO
SATURDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN. MARGINAL SCA OCEAN SEAS MAY
BE POSSIBLE BY LATE WEEK WITH A PERSISTENT SOUTHERLY FLOW...BUT
LOW CONFIDENCE AT THIS POINT.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A HALF TO THREE-QUARTERS OF AN INCH OF
BASIN AVERAGE RAINFALL TODAY INTO TONIGHT. LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS
WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH CONVECTION. THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR LOCALLY
HEAVY RAINFALL WITH ANY STRONGER CONVECTION. THIS COULD CAUSE MINOR
FLOODING OF URBAN/POOR DRAINAGE AREAS.
THE PROBABILITY FOR WIDESPREAD SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL IS LOW DURING
THE LONG TERM PERIOD.
