Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Binghamton NY 641 AM EDT Sun Jun 30 2024 .SYNOPSIS... Cold front pushes through today with a few strong thunderstorms possible in Northeast PA during the late morning and early afternoon. High pressure will build into the region for the first half of next week. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY/... 320 AM Update... Cold front approaching the region this morning with showers and thunderstorms popping up across central NY. Some of these thunderstorms cold be strong or borderline severe this morning with localized damaging winds possible as well as torrential downpours. Cold front moves through later this morning and early this afternoon. Instability will have a chance to develop mainly across NEPA and possibly Sullivan County, NY. There is still nearly 50 knots of 0-6 km shear present, so any storm that develops ahead or along the front in the late morning and early afternoon could become strong to severe. High pressure will build in behind the front tonight, however upper trough remains overhead and some lake enhanced rain showers will be possible across Central NY into Monday morning. Otherwise, Monday looks mostly dry with pleasant temperatures in the low 70s for highs. && .SHORT TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/... 320 AM Update... Surface high pressure is in control during this period with the first half of the week staying dry. Upper level trough is slow to move out with northwest flow remaining in place Monday night. Clear skies and light winds will make it a favorable night for radiational cooling allowing temperatures to fall into the upper 40s to low 50s. Upper level ridge moves in on Tuesday with surface high centering over our region. Southerly flow returns with temperatures climbing into the upper 70s to the low 80s during the day. Temperatures are more mild overnight with lows ranging in the low to mid 60s with a pocket of mid 50s over the Western Catskills region. && .LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... 320 AM Update... Upper level ridge with southerly flow holds for one more day keeping temperatures warm on Wednesday with highs in the low to upper 80s. High pressure slides to the east Wednesday with a system over the midwest starting to approach our region by the evening. This kicks off showers and thunderstorms that will continue into Thursday. Thursday is a bit up in the air in terms of precip chances depending on how far south the front can push before stalling out. Another wave tracks northeast and into our region by Friday, with more showers and thunderstorms. Models begin to diverge for the rest of the period, therefore relied on NBM Pops through Sunday. Temperatures during this time frame will be warm with highs ranging in the low to upper 80s with overnight lows in the low to upper 60s. && .AVIATION /12Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... Cold front pushes through the region this morning through this afternoon with restrictions likely in showers and possibly a thunderstorm. Conditions gradually improve to VFR later this afternoon. However, low stratus behind the front will likely produce some MVFR ceilings overnight and into Monday morning. Outlook... Monday through Wednesday...Mainly VFR. Wednesday night into Thursday...Restrictions with showers and thunderstorms possible. && .BGM WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... PA...None.
