SYNOPSIS
Dry conditions will persist tonight into the start of the weekend. A weak system will bring scattered showers to the region Saturday afternoon into Sunday. Temperatures will be cool on Friday but warm some over the weekend.
NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/
630 PM Update...
Quite the nice evening across the region with current temperatures in the 40s, falling into the mid 30s by mid-evening. Clearing tonight across the western portion of the CWA will allow temperatures to fall into the low to mid 20s. Winds will be strong enough to keep the boundary layer mixed, preventing maximized radiational cooling.
The forecast remains on track for the rest of the period.
230 pm update...
Rain showers has moved out of Delaware, Sullivan and Pike Counties. With the low clouds there could be some lingering drizzle. Low clouds are quickly pushing east past Syracuse, Binghamton, and Towanda. This should push east of the entire area this afternoon. High clouds are streaming north on the back side of the cold front but this should also push east this evening. So skies will clear from west to east late tonight.
Temperatures will fall into the 20s which is where the dewpoints are. Winds will become light.
Friday with heating and the cold northwest low level flow, lake effect clouds will dominate but probably with little to no showers. With the cold air high temperatures will be cooler and mostly in the low and mid 40s for most except for the Wyoming Valley which will be around 50. Northwest winds will be 10 to 20 mph with higher gusts.
The clouds will linger into Friday night. Low temperatures will be from the mid 20s to around 30 degrees. Winds will stay strong with the tight pressure gradient between the strong low over Maine and high pressure over Ohio.
SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/
410 PM update...
Weak ridging in place early Saturday will push east making way for a quick moving surface low and upper level shortwave later in the day and into Saturday night. While the surface low looks to track over the southern part of our area or perhaps even skirt by just south of the CWA, there is more uncertainty with the track of the shortwave with some guidance taking it right over CNY while others have the wave passing by to the north.
Given this uncertainty, PoPs are generally less than 50% for much of the area Saturday afternoon through Saturday night. QPF amounts look very light as well. Highs Saturday are expected to range from the mid 40s to the mid 50s. Lows Saturday night will be largely in the 30s and as temperatures in the higher terrain fall back into the lower and mid 30s, there can be some wet snow that mixes in with any precipitation late Saturday evening and into the overnight hours. However, with the marginal temperatures in place and warm ground from the daytime, any snow would have a hard time accumulating.
Surface high pressure builds back in Sunday along with some ridging aloft, and this should lead to a dry day for most with clouds giving way to some sunshine. Highs for the second half of the weekend are expected to range from the low 40s to the low 50 with mid 50s possible in the Wyoming Valley.
LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/
410 PM update...
An active long range forecast looks to be setting up for the area. There will be chance for some showers Monday, with the best chance setting up currently over NE PA. Meanwhile on Monday we'll be watching a developing surface low over the central U.S. associated with a deep upper trough. This broad storm system is expected to lift northeast toward the Great Lakes and Northeast Tuesday into Wednesday while its associated cold front presses east across the eastern seaboard. A strong southwest flow will develop ahead of this system so temperatures are expected to be in the 40s and 50s with rain. As this low continues to lift northeast toward New England, it does look to stall out near this area with blocking developing. The flow will shift out of the northwest and some chillier air will funnel in on the backside, most notably with the overnight lows as highs through midweek are in the 40s, but lows fall back into the upper 20s and lower 30s, so there can be some lake effect rain/snow showers persisting through Thursday. However, there is uncertainty with regards to the low track, so confidence on precipitation type is on the lower side in the long range, but confidence is high on the event occurring.
AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/
130 pm update...
MVFR cigs continue only at AVP now until around 21z. Maybe an hour of fuel alternate left now.
CNY sites have lifted to VFR and the lower clouds are scattering out from west to east with only RME around 3500 feet. High clouds will linger everywhere into tonight. Friday a 5k or 6k foot ceiling will dominate due to lake moisture and northwest cold air advection.
Northwest winds around 10 kts this afternoon fall to 5 to 10 kts tonight. Friday the winds pick up to 10 to 15 kts with gusts to 25 kts.
Outlook...
Friday night through Saturday morning...VFR (High confidence)
Saturday afternoon through Sunday...Mainly VFR but restrictions from rain showers possibly changing to snow showers Saturday overnight and Sunday morning. (Moderate confidence)
Sunday night...VFR (Moderate confidence)
Monday through Tuesday...Mainly VFR; chance of showers.
(Moderate confidence)
