Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New York NY
1053 AM EDT SAT AUG 13 2016
.SYNOPSIS...
The heat wave will continue through the weekend. A cold front
will slowly approach on Sunday, pass through Sunday night, and
stall to the south from Monday into Tuesday. The front will return
north as a warm front Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, with
weak low pressure trough lingering from later Wednesday into
Thursday. A weak cold front will pass late Thursday night into
Friday.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
***DANGEROUS HEAT AND HUMIDITY CONTINUES THROUGH THE WEEKEND***
Main forecast update this morning was to hasten temp/heat index
increase this morning...with heat indices already 95 to 105 as of
10 am. Have limited convection chances through early afternoon to
isolated with no discernible trigger. Isolated convection
development possible along sea breeze boundary...differential
heating in the hills...and to sw of backdoor cold front across NE
CT by early this afternoon.
Bermuda high pressure keeps a strong hold over the western
Atlantic today with H5 heights around 591 dam in our neck of the
wood. Thus...a stagnant airmass continues...perhaps a degree or
so warmer at H85 making today the hottest day of the heat wave.
Expect max temps to be a degree or two warmer than yesterday with
plenty of sunshine. Heat indices will range from 105 to 113 across
much of the forecast area with dewpoints remaining in the mid to
upper 70s across the region. The excessive heat warning remains
in effect. Even far eastern LI/extreme Se ct could briefly hit
105 heat indices late morning/early aft...but not widespread
enough to expand warning.
Any vorts tracking around the periphery of the bermuda high in
combination with above mentioned weak sfc boundaries (lee
trough...sea breeze...outflows) in tropical airmass (pwats 2-2.25
inches) should be enough to trigger iso-sct storms. Best chance
for storms appears to be mid afternoon into early evening across
NW hills with differential heating/upstream pre-frontal trough
and interior southern CT with development off outflow from
convection to the north.
Convective mode is expected to be pulse due to high CAPE weak
shear environment. Anything that does develop has the potential
to produce torrential rain...although a 25-30 mph storm motion
should keep flash flooding localized to training convection. See
hydro section below for additional information. Also noting the
high equilibrium level...deep moisture...and inverted v in the low
levels on the soundings...wet microburst are possible with any
stronger storms.
There is a moderate risk for rip current development for ocean
beaches into this afternoon...becoming marginally high risk for
NYC and possibly Nassau County beaches late this afternoon into
this evening.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
Convective activity should wane this eve although a rouge shower
could pop up at anytime overnight due to the moist unstable
airmass.
We'll do it all over again on Sunday...although there should be
better coverage of showers/tstms in the aftn/eve as a cold front
approaches from the NW. Pre-frontal trough sets up in the aftn and
with a shortwave tracking through New England...there is also a
better chc for severe wx. We'll be on the southern edge of the
synoptic forcing during peak heating so strongest storms may be
confined to Lower Hudson Valley and Southern CT. Highest 0-6km
shear moves in after dark as well as the front enters the area.
Am concerned about dewpoints on Sun since the winds are expected
to be more WSW..although this will depend on where pre-frontal
trough is during the aftn. This may lower dewpoints just enough
in the aftn for excessive heat warning criteria to be met in some
zones...especially inland...although moisture pooling may offset
this. Have kept the warning as is for now...but something to
definitely watch.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Conditions should be less oppressive Mon-Tue after the weak
fropa, with somewhat lower temps (highs upper 80s/lower 90s) and
humidity levels (dewpoints around 70), with max heat indices still
reaching 90-95. A warm front will then approach late Tuesday night
into Wednesday, with chances for thunderstorms, and timing of
fropa somewhat uncertain at least per model guidance. ECMWF is
probably too fast with warm fropa Tue night, and GFS may be too
suppressed, stalling the warm front over the area or just to the
south all day Wednesday due to its flatter ridging to the south
and a slightly stronger northern stream over the Canadian
Maritimes. Climatology and model biases argues for suppression
Tuesday night, and then warm fropa Wednesday morning.
Expect high temps mainly 85-90 Wed-Fri, with high humidity on Wed
and possibly Thu, then drier conditions Fri after a weak cold
frontal passage.
&&
.AVIATION /14Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
VFR forecast. Isolated to scattered SHRA/TSRA possible again from
late afternoon into early evening. Confidence not high enough to
include in TAFs at this time.
SW winds incr 10-15 KT, except KJFK where sea breeze turns winds S
this aftn. Occasional gusts to 20 kt possible mainly at coastal and
city terminals.
.OUTLOOK FOR 12Z Sunday through Wednesday...
.Saturday night-Wednesday...Mainly VFR. However, scattered
afternoon/evening SHRA/TSRA each day could result in brief MVFR or
lower conditions.
&&
.MARINE...
Conditions are expected to prevail below advisory criteria across
all waters today, however there could be occasional gusts around 25
KT late this afternoon into the evening for the ocean waters west of
Fire Island Inlet. It's also possible that seas on the ocean reach 5
FT for an hour or two late day/this evening, but confidence for
sustained SCA conditions is not high enough at this time to go with
an advisory.
Sub-SCA conditions otherwise will prevail through the rest of the
forecast period.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
With precipitable water remaining generally between 2 and 2.5
inches, any thunderstorms that develop today will be capable of
producing torrential rainfall. Storm motion should be between
20-25 kt...thus the flash flooding threat will be localized to
training convection.
Thunderstorms with a cold frontal passage late day Sunday into
Sunday night, and with a warm frontal approach and passage late
Tuesday night into Wednesday, may be capable of producing torrential
rainfall with rainfall rates 1-2 inches per hour and localized flash
flooding.
