.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
No significant changes for this update.
&&
.KEY MESSAGES...
1) Risk of showers and a few thunderstorms today, but additional
flooding is not expected.
2) Windy today.
3) A round of showers with embedded thunderstorms with the
potenial for heavy rain and severe weather Saturday through
Sunday morning.
&&
.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...Risk of showers and a few thunderstorms today, but
additional flooding is not expected.
A warm front will lift across the region this morning with a weak
cold front pushing through this afternoon. Scattered showers and a
few thunderstorms will be possible with both features today.
Marginal instability will limit the threat of severe weather. Any
addtional flooding concerns unlikely with basin average rainfall
amounts generally under a quarter inch.
KEY MESSAGE 2...Windy today.
A strong low level jet of 55 to 65 knots will be overhead this
morning. Stable temperature profiles will prevent the strongest
winds aloft from mixing to the surface, but south/southeast winds
may gust to 40-50 mph across the higher terrain and favored
downslope areas this morning. The strongest gusts will be along
the Lake Erie shoreline of Chautauqua county and within the
Black River Valley east of Lake Ontario. The low level jet will
weaken today, but better mixing will develop by mid day and this
afternoon. This will allow for a period of stronger
southwesterly gusts to 40-45 mph downwind of Lake Erie.
KEY MESSAGE 3...A round of showers with embedded thunderstorms with
the potenial for heavy rain and severe weather Saturday through
Sunday morning.
A cold front will move into the eastern Great Lakes and Ohio Valley
Saturday. Ahead of the cold front the region will be within the warm
sector. Some cloud cover may exist early in the day, but a gradual
increase in low level moisture and surface heating in cloud breaks
will support weak diurnal instability. Favorable shear profiles will
support the risk for severe thunderstorms, with the main threat
being damaging winds and isolated hail. Precipitable water values
near 1.25 inches will support the potential for localized heavy
rainfall.
&&
.AVIATION /06Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A warm front will lift across our region today, bringing a return to
widespread MVFR ceiling heights, along with chance for a few rain
showers and thunderstorms. Greatest chances for thunder will be near
the Southern Tier and east of the Genesee Valley through the morning
hours, then across the Southern Tier this afternoon along a lake
breeze boundary.
Low level wind shear will continue across the TAF region until the
mid-morning hours when mixing heights increase and surface winds
become sufficiently gusty. LLJ of 50 knots will have a base between
1K and 1.5K feet.
A cold front will slice across the region this early evening.
Southwest winds will quickly veer to northwest to northerly across
the TAF region. Mainly dry tonight, though a few rain showers may
reach the western Southern Tier by daybreak Saturday.
Outlook...
Saturday through Sunday...Periods of rain with non-VFR flight
conditions are expected. Scattered thunderstorms are also possible
through Saturday night.
Sunday night through Tuesday...MVFR/VFR with a chance of snow
showers...with IFR possible in areas of lake effect snow showers
east/southeast of the lakes.
&&
.MARINE...
The passage of a warm front will bring elevated southerly winds
early this morning, maintaining SCA conditions on both Lake Erie and
Lake Ontario. Elevated southwesterlies will follow from mid morning
through this afternoon, continuing the SCA conditions.
The next period of concern will be Saturday night into Monday, as a
cold front ushers in west winds of 20 to 25 knots. A Small Craft
Advisory will likely be needed during this time period.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
Several creeks and rivers remain in flood, including the Tonawanda
Creek, Black Creek at Churchville, and the Black River. These
slower responding waterways will remain in flood through today
or into tonight.
The Oatka Creek at Garbutt dropped below flood stage Thursday
evening.
Low pressure and its associated warm and cold fronts will bring
additional moderate to possibly heavy showers and thunderstorms
Saturday, and especially Saturday night. There will be a low
risk for additional flooding due to our still nearly-saturated
ground conditions.
&&
.BUF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NY...None.
MARINE...Small Craft Advisory from 8 AM this morning to 5 PM EDT this
afternoon for LEZ020.
Small Craft Advisory until 5 PM EDT this afternoon for
LEZ040-041.
Small Craft Advisory until 8 PM EDT this evening for
LOZ042-043.
Small Craft Advisory until 11 PM EDT this evening for
LOZ044-045.
