AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
129 AM EST SUN FEB 15 2015
.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE RAPIDLY DEEPENS AS IT MOVES FROM SOUTH OF LONG ISLAND
TONIGHT TO NEAR NOVA SCOTIA BY SUNDAY EVENING. THE LOW CONTINUES
TO TRACK INTO THE CANADIAN MARITIMES THROUGH MONDAY AS CANADIAN
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE WEST. THE HIGH BUILDS OVER THE
AREA MONDAY NIGHT...MOVING OFFSHORE TUESDAY. A COASTAL LOW MOVING
OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST TUESDAY NIGHT WILL TRACK SOUTH AND EAST OF
THE AREA...THEN TO THE NORTHEAST WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
RETURN FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM APPROACHES
FROM THE WEST NEXT WEEKEND.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
BASED ON CURRENT OBSERVATIONS...NEAR TERM TRENDS AND THE LATEST FORECAST
MODEL OUTPUT...LESS SNOW IS FORECAST FOR THE REST OF THIS EVENT.
BLIZZARD WARNINGS WERE REPLACED WITH WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES AND
HIGH WIND WARNINGS.
A MESO HIGH PRES SYSTEM RIDGED SW BETWEEN 2 WAVES OF LOW PRES PRODUCING
LOW LVL SUBSIDENCE EARLIER THIS EVENING...WHICH COVERED MOST OF THE
LOCAL AREA. THIS COUNTERACTED THE FAVORABLE UPPER LVL PATTERN THAT
SYNOPTICALLY SHOWED MID AND UPPER LVL LIFT AS EVIDENCE OF THE IR
SAT IMAGERY.
THIS MESO HIGH HAS WEAKENED AS LOW PRES GRADUALLY INTENSIFIES OFF
THE NJ COAST...FURTHER SE THAN EARLIER FORECAST.
ADDITIONAL LIGHT SNOW IS LIKELY ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER LOW PASSING
SOUTH OF LONG ISLAND TONIGHT.
ONE QUESTION REGARDING THE POTENTIAL FOR ADDITIONAL SNOW THROUGH EARLY
SUNDAY IS WHETHER WRAP AROUND BANDS OF MOISTURE WILL DEVELOP FAR ENOUGH
WEST TO PRODUCE ADDITIONAL MEASURABLE SNOW...WHICH REMAINS POSSIBLE.
OTHERWISE...THE REAL STORY WILL BE THE HIGH WINDS AND COLD TEMPERATURES.
WHAT IS MORE CERTAIN IS THAT STRONG TO DAMAGING WINDS WILL OCCUR
WITH THIS STORM FROM LATE TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY. WITH AN EXPECTATION
OF SUSTAINED WINDS OF 40 MPH FOR AT LEAST AN HOUR AND/OR GUSTS TO
AT LEAST 60 MPH FROM MIDNIGHT TONIGHT TO 2 PM SUNDAY FOR
NYC/NASSAU COUNTY AND PORTIONS OF NE NJ...THIS IS IN ADDITION TO
THE EXPECTATION OF SIMILAR WINDS IN THE BLIZZARD WARNING AREA. IN
THE AREA UNDER THE WINTER STORM WARNING...AND THE REMAINDER OF THE
CWA NOT UNDER THE HIGH WIND WARNING/BLIZZARD WARNING EXPECT
SUSTAINED WINDS OF 20-35MPH AND GUSTS OF 50-55 MPH. HAVE THUS
CONTINUED TO REFLECT THIS IN THE WINTER STORM WARNING/WIND
ADVISORY PRODUCT AS APPLICABLE. IN ADDITION TO CAUSING BLOWING
SNOW AND REDUCING VISIBILITIES...THESE WINDS WILL LIKELY BRING
DOWN BRANCHES AND POWER LINES...AND POSSIBLY SOME TREES AS WELL IN
THE HIGH WIND WARNING/BLIZZARD WARNING AREAS. THIS WILL ADD POWER
OUTAGES AND BLOCKED ROADWAYS TO THE HAZARDS IMPACTING THE
AREA...BEYOND THE SNOW ITSELF.
TEMPERATURES WILL FALL INTO THE TEENS TONIGHT...AND RISE ONLY A
FEW DEGREES ON SUNDAY. AS THE WINDS INCREASE LATE TONIGHT...WIND
CHILLS WILL FALL OF TO FROM AROUND ZERO TO 10 BELOW...AND REMAIN
NEAR THESE LEVELS THROUGH MOST OF THE DAY ON SUNDAY.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH 6 PM MONDAY/...
THE COLDEST AIR MASS OF THE SEASON ARRIVES SUNDAY NIGHT...WITH LOWS
FORECAST TO BE FROM AROUND ZERO IN THE NYC METRO/LONG ISLAND
(EXCEPT UP TO 5 ABOVE ON THE TWIN FORKS) AND SINGLE DIGITS BELOW
ZERO ELSEWHERE. THESE COMBINED WITH NW WINDS 10-25 GUST 30-40 MPH
WILL PRODUCE WIND CHILLS OF 25 TO 30 BELOW ACROSS NORTHERN
INTERIOR ZONES...INCLUDING W PASSAIC - SO HAVE CONVERTED THE WIND
CHILL WATCH TO A WIND CHILL WARNING THERE. ELSEWHERE...INCLUDING E
PASSAIC/W BERGEN COUNTIES EXPECT WIND CHILLS 15 TO 25 BELOW - SO
HAVE ISSUED A WIND CHILL ADVISORY FOR TE REMAINDER OF THE CWA.
BLOWING SNOW COULD ALSO BE AN ISSUE INTO SUNDAY EVENING AS WELL.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AN ACTIVE PATTERN CONTINUES THROUGH THE PERIOD AS WEAK RIDGING
ALOFT MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT IS REPLACED WITH A BROAD...AND FULL
LATITUDE...DIGGING EASTERN TROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY. A
COUPLE OF SHORTWAVES ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH THE UPPER TROUGH
TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY AND AGAIN FOR NEXT WEEKEND. THE
STRONGER OF THE SYSTEMS WILL MOVE OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST TUESDAY
AND TRACK SOUTH AND EAST TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY WILL UNDERGOING
RAPID DEEPENING. THERE IS STILL SOME TRACKING UNCERTAINTY WITH THE
LOW. HOWEVER...ALL INDICATIONS ARE THAT THE AREA WILL BE AFFECTED
BY ANOTHER ROUND OF SNOW AS COLD AIR WILL BE IN PLACE AND THE
TRACKS TAKE THE STORM SOUTH AND EAST OF THE 70W/40N BENCHMARK.
THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A LIGHT TO MODERATE SNOWFALL ACROSS AT
LEAST A PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA...MORE LIKELY ALONG THE
COAST. AGAIN...THERE ARE STILL SOME UNCERTAINTIES WITH THE TRACK
OF THE LOW.
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN BEHIND THE DEPARTING LOW FOR LATE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY. ANOTHER WEAK SHORTWAVE ROTATING
THROUGH THE UPPER TROUGH SATURDAY. AGAIN THERE ARE SOME TIMING AND
PLACEMENT OF THE ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW...WHICH IS A WEAK CLIPPER
SYSTEM AT THIS TIME.
ANOTHER VERY COLD AIR MASS WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION BEHIND THE
DEPARTING LOW WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY NIGHT WITH TEMPERATURES
WELL BELOW NORMAL. SOME MODERATION IN THE AIR MASS TAKES PLACE FRIDAY
NIGHT INTO SATURDAY AS WARM ADVECTION SETS UP BEHIND THE SURFACE
HIGHS. HOWEVER...TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW SEASONAL
LEVELS.
&&

TRACKS NORTHEAST INTO THE CANADIAN MARITIMES DURING THE DAY.
