AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Albany NY 315 PM EDT Fri Apr 19 2024

SYNOPSIS
A cold front will bring rain showers to the region this afternoon into tonight. Behind the front, breezy and cool conditions are expected for Saturday, with a partly sunny afternoon and some isolated showers. It will remain mostly dry Sunday into Monday with partly sunny skies, but temperatures will continue to be a little below average for late April.

NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/
Showers associated with a cold front have reached the western Mohawk valley and southwestern Adirondacks. Breaks in the overcast have developed over eastern areas. Showers will continue to move east and clouds will also increase over eastern areas. Winds will remain gusty out of the southeast until a few hours after sunset.

SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/
A surface cold front slowly moves across the area tonight which will bring showers to most of the area. Precipitation will be light with forecast precipitation generally less than a third of an inch. a few spots could see up to a half an inch of liquid precipitation.

On Saturday, sky cover will gradually improve through the morning hours, as the cold front continues to move east.
However, skies won't clear out completely, as the upper level trough and cold pool move overhead. The afternoon will likely see increasing clouds and some isolated showers as the cooling temps aloft and cyclonic flow promote the development of cu/stratocu. While most areas will be dry on Saturday, a few pop-up showers or sprinkles can't be ruled out by Saturday afternoon, especially over northern areas. Some pea size hail will be possible from any shower as a -30C cold pool drifts across the northern part of the area. Temps will be a little below normal thanks to the upper level cold pool in place. With the decent mixing, winds will be gusty and breezy by Saturday afternoon, with some westerly winds gusting up to 30 mph. It will remain a little breezy into Saturday night with some lingering clouds, although it should be dry with no precip across the area.

Dry weather is expected to continue for Sunday into Sunday night. Upper level trough will continue to be located over the Northeastern US, although the core of the cold pool will remain north of the area over Quebec. Another frontal boundary will be passing across the area, with a reinforcing shot of cooler air, but this moisture-starved front won't be producing any precip for our area. As a result, skies will be mostly clear for Sunday into Sunday night, although it will on the cooler side. It will be breezy once again on Sunday, especially during the afternoon and early evening with gusts around 30 mph.

LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/
Mainly fair weather is expected for Monday and Tuesday as the forecast area is forecast to be under weak upper ridging.
Temperatures on Monday look to start cold, but rise to near normal. On Tuesday, heights rise and look to be be slightly above normal over the southeastern part of the area by afternoon. Temperatures on Tuesday should be near to slightly above normal depending on sunshine. By Wednesday, the next upper trough starts to cross the region with a strong cold front which will likely bring rain showers to the area. Rain showers could end as snow showers Wednesday night across the high terrain as temperatures are forecast to be well below normal behind the front. Cold weather and some possible mountain snow showers linger into Thursday.

AVIATION /19Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/
Through 18z/Saturday...VFR conditions with BKN-OVC cigs in place to start this afternoon. However, a cold front approaching from the west will bring scattered to numerous showers mainly from later this evening into the overnight hours. A first batch of showers will move across KGFL through this afternoon, but will be very light, with perhaps some brief MVFR cigs. A more widespread batch of showers is expected to develop late this evening and last through much of the overnight as the cold front's progress slows. Solid MVFR conditions are expected during this time.

Conditions should improve to VFR by around 12z Saturday, as showers end and the cold front pushes east of the region. Mid level clouds could linger into the afternoon, but with cigs remaining VFR.

Winds will be south-southeast into early this evening around 8-12 kt with occasional gusts near 20 kt, shifting to the south- southwest overnight around 5-10 kt. Winds on Saturday will become west- northwest and increase to around 10-15 kt with gust around 20-25 kt developing.
