Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New York NY
156 PM EDT Tue Aug 4 2020
.SYNOPSIS...
Tropical Storm Isaias will pass through the region today, most
likely tracking just west of New York City. A weak low pressure
trough stalls south of the area Wednesday and Thursday as weak
waves of low pressure move along it. Weak high pressure should
return on Sunday into Monday.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
**TROPICAL STORM CONDITIONS EXPECTED TODAY**
No significant changes to the current forecast as Isaias
continues to move north, with the center forecast to track just
west of the area late this afternoon. As of noon, the bulk of
the primary rain shield remains across portions of northeast new
Jersey, the Lower Hudson Valley, and points west, with a
convective band rotating northward through New York City, Long
Island, and into southern Connecticut. While the axis of
heaviest rain has primarily shifted west of the region, a Flash
Flood Watch remains in effect through late tonight for portions
of the area as torrential rainfall remains possible with a
tropical airmass in place.
The threat for tornadoes continues into this afternoon,
especially in any discrete cells that are able to develop in the
convective feeder band. There have been numerous spin ups in
this band south of the region through the morning, and a Tornado
Watch remains in effect for the entire region until 4 pm.
The highest wind threat continues to be east of the center of
the storm, which includes the entire forecast area. Peak winds
are expected between approximately noon and 8 pm, with sustained
winds 35-45 mph and gusts 50-60 mph on average. Both sustained
wind speeds and gusts could be 5-10 mph higher along the
immediate coast.
After the storm passes, sct shwrs and tstms are possible on the
backside of the sys tngt as the upr trof moves in.
A high rip current risk remains for the ocean beaches through
tonight.
&&
.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
Generally fair wx is expected Wed and Wed ngt attm. A frontal
boundary is progged to remain s of Long Island, and along this
boundary will be the best chances for the development of shwrs
and tstms. The GFS was the only model to bring this pcpn far
enough n to reach the CWA, so a dry fcst has been issued. The
NBM was used for temps.
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
In the wake of Isaias, a relative quiet period in store. A closed
upper low located over Ontario combined with the subtropical
high over the Atlantic keeps the region in deep southwest flow
to begin the period. A shortwave follows by Saturday before weak
ridging builds back in for Sunday and Monday.
At the surface, a trough stalls southeast of the area, and a series
of weak surface lows will traverse this feature Thursday into
Saturday morning. This will result in increasing clouds and
precipitation chances, especially for Long Island and southeastern
CT. Surface high pressure builds in for Sunday and Monday resulting
in mainly dry conditions.
High temperatures look to be at or just above normal through Monday
as 850mb temperatures climb into the teens over the weekend and into
Monday. The NBM with some minor adjustments was used for
temperatures and dewpoints over the period.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
***High Impact Aviation Weather Expected Today***
Isaias continues to impact the region this afternoon, moving
north and west of the area this evening.
Winds will be the main impact, with southeast to south wind 35
to 40 kt gusting as high as 60 kt through this afternoon with
low level. Winds and gusts begin to slowly diminish and quickly
shift to the southwest around 22Z, 20 to 30 kt, gusting 30 to
40 kt, as Isaias moves to the north and northwest of the region.
By late this evening, around 03Z winds will be southwest 10 to
15 kt.
Conditions MVFR to IFR through this afternoon, improving to VFR
this evening. Showers, with locally heavy rain likely this
afternoon. Isolated thunderstorms along with isolated tornados
cannot be ruled out this afternoon. Thunderstorms have been
left out of the TAF due to uncertainty in timing and coverage.

.Thursday...VFR, chance of showers and thunderstorms Thursday
evening with locally MVFR.
.Friday-Saturday...Mainly VFR. Afternoon SHRA/TSRA possible.
.Sunday...VFR.
&&
.MARINE...
A Tropical Storm Warning remains in effect for all waters. In
addition, a Tornado Watch is in effect through 4pm this
afternoon. Winds of 35-45 kt with gusts up to 60 kt are
expected. The wrn waters are likely to receive the strongest
winds based on the expected track of the storm. Isolated gusts
over 60 kts are possible. Conditions will then improve quickly
tonight as the tropical storm tracks into New England. Wave
heights will build to 15-20 ft on the ocean, 5-10 ft on the
Sound, and 3-6 on the bays.
Waves on the ocean will subside on Wed, but not fall blw 5 ft in
all areas until Wed ngt. A frontal system stalls south of the
ocean waters Thursday night into Friday evening with the chance
of showers and thunderstorms. High pressure returns Friday.
Winds and seas are expected to remain below SCA levels across
the forecast waters Thursday through the upcoming weekend.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
The heaviest rainfall is expected to fall west of the Hudson
River today. Storm total rainfall of 2-3 inches is fcst across
these hardest hit areas. Elsewhere, generally an inch or less
is expected. Locally higher amounts are possible all areas
however as any stronger cells will produce torrential downpours
in the tropical environment. Confidence in any moderate river
flooding remains low due to rainfall forecast uncertainty.
A flash flood watch remains in effect through tngt for NYC,
Northeast NJ, and the Lower Hudson Valley where guidance is
lower with rain amounts for flash flood criteria. This is also
closer to the heavier rain axis forecast.
No significant widespread rainfall is expected Thursday through
Monday.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
Coastal flood warnings remain in effect for south facing
shorelines of Long Island Sound, and western Long Island, and
in/around NY Harbor, with advisories for the remaining waters.
A strong SE flow ahead of Isaias could produce surge of 2 1/2
to 3 1/2 ft in the warning area and 1 to 2 ft elsewhere. This
would result in widespread inundation of 1 to 2 ft with
localized values up to 3 ft in the warning area. Preference
continues to be toward the higher end of the PETSS and NYHOPS
guidance.
This is a one-cycle event, as winds shift W on the back side of
the storm late Tuesday evening.
