VALID 011200Z - 021200Z THERE IS A MDT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS NERN PA...NRN NJ...SERN NY...CT...RI...MA...SRN VT...SRN NH...AND EXTREME SRN ME. THE MDT RISK AREA IS TO THE RIGHT OF A LINE FROM 10 SSE JFK ABE 30 ENE IPT 10 NNW GFL 20 N LCI PWM.

MID-LEVEL PATTERN IS FORECAST TO BECOME SOMEWHAT MORE AMPLIFIED THIS PERIOD AS STRONG ERN TROUGH DEEPENS AND MOVES ACROSS THE NERN CONUS. THIS TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED VERY STRONG WIND FIELD WILL LIKELY SUPPORT A POTENTIALLY SIGNIFICANT WIND EVENT FOR MUCH OF NEW ENGLAND AND PARTS OF THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION. MEANWHILE...UPPER RIDGE CENTERED OVER THE FOUR CORNERS REGION WILL EXPAND NWWD AS SHORTWAVE TROUGH TOPS THE RIDGE IN MT AND MOVES SEWD INTO THE PLAINS. AT THE SURFACE...THE MAIN FEATURE WILL BE THE COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE ERN TROUGH. THIS FRONT IS INITIALLY FORECAST TO LIE IN AN ARC SOUTH OF 1030 SURFACE HIGH...FROM ERN ONTARIO SWWD ACROSS THE ERN GREAT LAKES REGION INTO THE MO RIVER VALLEY...AND THEN NWWD ACROSS THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS INTO MT. BY THE END OF THE PERIOD...THIS FRONT IS FORECAST TO MOVE OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST...AND SHOULD LIE ROUGHLY W-E FROM NC ACROSS THE TN AND MID MS VALLEY INTO OK...AND THEN NNWWD ACROSS THE HIGH PLAINS INTO SASKATCHEWAN. ...NERN CONUS... SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER EVENT IS FORECAST FOR THE REGION THIS PERIOD. COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE EWD ACROSS THE ERN GREAT LAKES EARLY IN THE PERIOD...AND WILL THEN MOVE EWD INTO NEW ENGLAND AND SEWD ACROSS THE OH VALLEY DURING THE AFTERNOON / EVENING. ALTHOUGH AIRMASS AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL REMAIN QUITE MOIST WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE 60S TO NEAR 70 OVER NEW ENGLAND AND THE OH VALLEY AND INTO THE LOW 70S IN THE DELMARVA REGION...WEAK LOW- TO MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES ACROSS THE REGION /AROUND 6 C/KM/ AND SOME CLOUD COVER WILL LIMIT AVAILABLE INSTABILITY. NONETHELESS...SOME DAYTIME HEATING AND AMOUNT OF MOISTURE WILL LIKELY YIELD SURFACE-BASED CAPE IN THE 1000 TO 2000 J/KG RANGE. SCATTERED TO ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL LIKELY BE ONGOING AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PERIOD ACROSS THIS REGION...AND WITH STRENGTH OF UPPER TROUGH AND LOW-LEVEL FORCING ALONG COLD FRONT...STORMS SHOULD INCREASE ALONG AND AHEAD OF BOUNDARY BY EARLY AFTERNOON. STORMS SHOULD RAPIDLY EVOLVE INTO A SIGNIFICANT SQUALL LINE...WITH PERHAPS A FEW ISOLATED SUPERCELLS DEVELOPING AHEAD OF THE LINE DURING THE AFTERNOON. ALTHOUGH WIND SHEAR IS FORECAST TO BE GENERALLY UNIDIRECTIONAL... WINDS THROUGH A DEEP LAYER ARE FORECAST TO BE QUITE STRONG -- PARTICULARLY FROM PA NWD...WITH AN 80 KT WLY MID-LEVEL JET STREAK FORECAST IN CENTRAL NY BY EVENING. AS A RESULT...EXPECT A THREAT FOR SIGNIFICANT WIND DAMAGE ACROSS THIS REGION AS STORMS ORGANIZE AHEAD OF COLD FRONT. THERE WILL ALSO LIKELY BE A SECONDARY THREAT FOR HAIL...AND POSSIBLY A FEW TORNADOES -- PARTICULARLY WITH ANY SUPERCELLS WHICH MAY DEVELOP AHEAD OF MAIN CONVECTIVE LINE. A COUPLE OF BRIEF TORNADOES WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY BOWING SEGMENTS OF THE LINE. STORMS WILL LIKELY MOVE OFF THE ATLANTIC COAST SHORTLY AFTER MIDNIGHT. ..GOSS.. 07/01/01

POWERFUL UPR TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED STRONG SFC COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP THROUGH THE ERN GREAT LAKES REGION THIS MORNING AND THROUGH NY/PA AND NEW ENGLAND THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. SUBSTANTIAL MID LEVEL HEIGHT FALLS OF OVER 100 M IN 12-HOURS ACROSS NY AND NRN NEW ENGLAND WILL SUPPORT VIGOROUS UPWARD VERTICAL MOTION AHEAD OF AND ALONG THE FRONT. MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS OVER THE REGION WILL AID DEVELOPMENT OF ONE OR MORE SQUALL LINES WITH RAPID CELL MOTION AND 50-80 KT MID LEVEL FLOW RESULTING IN WIDESPREAD DAMAGING WIND POTENTIAL. ...NORTHEAST... LATEST SFC ANALYSIS AND RADAR TRENDS SUGGESTED COLD FRONT WAS MOVING ESEWD ACROSS SRN LOWER MI AND SRN LAKE HURON AT 30 KT. A PREFRONTAL TROUGH WAS SITUATED FROM LAKE ERIE INTO CNTRL NY AND TSTMS WERE INCREASING COINCIDENT WITH THE PREFRONTAL TROUGH AND INSTABILITY AXIS WHERE CAPE WAS CURRENTLY AROUND 500-1000 J/KG. SFC TEMPERATURES WERE ALREADY IN THE 70S F WITH 65-70 F DEWPOINTS ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION. VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY SUGGESTED THAT SFC HEATING WILL BE STRONGEST ACROSS SERN NY INTO MA AND SRN NH. INITIAL LINE OF CONVECTION AND RESULTANT CIRRUS SHIELD MAY INHIBIT INSTABILITY OVER SOME AREAS BUT MAGNITUDE OF FORCING AND POTENTIAL MID LEVEL DRY INTRUSION LATER TODAY WILL TEND TO OFFSET WEAKER LAPSE RATES AND INSTABILITY CURRENTLY IN PLACE. EXPECT LOCATIONS WITH MARGINAL INSOLATION TO REACH CAPE VALUES OF 1500-2000 J/KG PRIOR TO TSTM DEVELOPMENT. PREFRONTAL LINE OF STORMS SHOULD INCREASE IN INTENSITY AND ORGANIZATION AS GREATER INSTABILITY IS REALIZED. A SECOND LINE OF SVR STORMS MAY ALSO FORM ALONG THE SYNOPTIC FRONT. DEEP LAYER UNIDIRECTIONAL SHEAR WILL INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY AS 75-80 KT MID LEVEL WIND MAX ROTATES ACROSS NY/PA AND NEW ENGLAND THROUGH THIS EVENING. MID LEVEL DRY INTRUSION ALONG THE COLD FRONT WILL ALSO ENHANCE CONVECTIVE DOWNDRAFTS AND COLD POOL GENERATION WITH BOW ECHO COMPLEX EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS MUCH OF ERN NY AND NEW ENGLAND DURING TIME OF MAXIMUM DIURNAL DESTABILIZATION. WHILE STRAIGHT LINE WIND DAMAGE AND SOME HAIL ARE EXPECTED TO BE THE PRIMARY THREATS... BACKED LOW LEVEL FLOW WITHIN N-S VLYS MAY RESULT IN SUFFICIENT LOW LEVEL SHEAR FOR ISOLATED TORNADOES. ...OH VALLEY... THERMALLY DIRECT CIRCULATION WITHIN RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF STRONGLY CURVED UPR JET WILL SUPPORT LARGE SCALE ASCENT AND LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE ALONG THE COLD FRONT AS IT DROPS SWD ACROSS IND/OH/WRN PA AND WV THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. RICH LOW LEVEL MOISTURE /DEWPOINTS IN THE UPR 60S F/ AND HEATING AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL CONTRIBUTE TO VERY UNSTABLE CONDITIONS WITH CAPE EXCEEDING 2000 J/KG IN SOME AREAS. THIS INSTABILITY WILL SUPPORT INTENSE UPDRAFTS WITH SLY LOW LEVEL STORM RELATIVE FLOW RESULTING IN RAPID SSEWD STORM PROPAGATION/LINE DEVELOPMENT. DEEP WLY UNIDIRECTIONAL SHEAR MAY ALLOW STORMS TO ORGANIZE INTO SMALL SCALE BOWS WITH GREATER POTENTIAL FOR WIND DAMAGE. IN ADDITION...DEGREE OF INSTABILITY WILL FAVOR LARGE HAIL. ..CARBIN.. 07/01/01
