Version 3.4 |
3/3/2018 - There is a new GOES Satellite for the east coast that required rewriting that part of the code. Please report any issues. 6/25/2017 - NOAA is having a major issue that impact the 7 day forecast load times. Many users are reporting problems. The issue has been reported. 5/23/2017 - Worked with NOAA again to speed up the 7 day forecast load times. Thanks to them for being responsive. |

  (on/off)  Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definitionFxus61 kokx 252308 afdokx area forecast discussion national weather service new york ny 708 pm edt Wed apr 25 2018 Synopsis Low pressure over the DELMARVA region will ride up across the area tonight, with a trailing cold front also passing through late. The low will move into new england on Thursday. Another low will move through on Friday, followed by a cold frontal passage late Saturday. High pressure will then be in control early to mid next week. Near term until 6 am Thursday morning Pops were increased with this update for the early evening hours across LI and ct based on latest obs and trends. Chances for showers across the entire area drop off soon after this, then there should be a return of scattered to numerous showers later tonight as the weak sfc low moves across and takes a cold front with it, aided by lift from an accompanying negatively-tilted mid level shortwave trough. Meanwhile, with the pressure gradient relaxing tonight and abundant low level moisture remaining, expect a potential for dense fog before cold fropa, particularly across long island and southern ct, where both narre hrrr time-lagged ensembles are flagging highest probabilities of vsby less than 1 4sm and 1sm, respectively. Have already issued spss for at least locally dense fog, and with light surface winds and a loss of turbulent mixing potential at the top of the mixed layer, may very well need to issue an advisory for some areas within the next hour or two. Iso sct thunderstorms should push north through SE ct early this evening. Winds aloft are weak, so not expecting any strong surface gusts with these storms. Fcst low temps tonight are on the warmer side of the mos envelope, in the upper 40s and lower 50s. Short term 6 am Thursday morning through Thursday night Gusty wnw flow expected along with mostly sunny skies for the most part after the mid level shortwave passes through. A closed mid level low passing just to the north may help provide enough lift for sct-bkn CU development in the afternoon, more so inland. With downslope flow and mixing to between 875-850 mb expect high temps to approach 70 in NE nj and rise well into the 60s most elsewhere. Thu night should start mostly clear, then become mostly cloudy overnight as another low begins to approach from the sw. Low temps should be in the 40s and lower 50s per MOS blend. |
Long term Friday through Wednesday Models in good agreement with the closed low over the central plains tracking eastward through the deep south on Thursday. This then lifts north toward the region Friday ahead of the next northern stream trough digging into the mississippi river valley on Thursday. At the surface, associated low pressure lifts northeast towards the region on Friday. This is a progressive system, with what looks like a quick hit of moderate rain (1 4 to 3 4 inch, locally 1 inch). Still uncertainty on where the axis of the heaviest rain will be, due to differences in track of low pressure and consequently placement of best lift instability axis. Models then in general agreement with partial phasing of the southern energy and digging northern stream trough to develop a deep trough over the great lakes into the NE us this weekend. Some spread in intensity amplitude of this trough, but general consensus on its axis moving through Sunday. At the surface, an associated cold front moves through late Sat sat evening, with a couple of weak troughs moving through Sunday. Seasonable temps on Saturday in WAA ahead of the front, dropping back down to a few degrees below seasonable on Sunday with cold pool and instability cloud cover. In its wake, deep layered ridging builds in for early next week, with potential for unseasonable warmth by midweek as ridging takes a bermuda position. Temps moderate to seasonable on Monday and then above seasonable on Tuesday. Potential for the first real warm spell of the season mid to late week, with high temps in the 80s for nyc nj metro and interior, and well into the 70s along the coast. Aviation 23z Wednesday through Monday Low pressure tracks from the mid-atlantic coast this evening to northern maine by early Thursday afternoon. Ifr or less through at least 06z. Light rain drizzle continues through then. Cannot rule out some pockets of moderate rain through midnight. Fog will continue to overspread the terminals this evening. Expect the fog to remain over the area until the winds become westerly (by around 08-10z). Conditions improve toVFR from 12z-15z from W to e. Winds become light and variable throughout early this evening and remain so into the overnight hours. Winds become westerly late tonight early Thursday morning (08-10z).
