  6. MD 0063 CONCERNING SNOW SQUALL FOR SOUTHEAST NEW YORK INTO THE NEW ENGLAND REGION Mesoscale Discussion 0063 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1049 AM CST Sun Jan 14 2024 Areas affected...Southeast New York into the New England region Concerning...Snow Squall Valid 141649Z - 142045Z SUMMARY...Thermodynamic conditions will remain favorable for snow squalls as a cold front pushes east into the New England region. DISCUSSION...Recent regional radar depicts broken bands of shallow convection along an eastward moving cold front from upstate NY into eastern PA. Visibility reductions between 1/4 to 1 mile have been observed with the passage of these bands and are primarily being driven by bursts of moderate to heavy snow with 25-35 mph wind gusts. The 12 UTC PIT sounding likely sampled the convective environment most accurately with nearly dry adiabatic lapse rates from the surface to ~750 mb, which appears to be represented well by recent 0-3 km lapse rate analyses. The plume of 8+ C/km low-level lapse rates is forecast to spread to the northeast into the New England region through the day in tandem with the cooler mid-level temperatures associated with the primary trough axis. Low-level instability should be bolstered by modest diurnal heating between cloud breaks through the afternoon, and a weak influx of moisture may support occasional lightning flashes, though sustained, lightning-producing convection is not necessarily anticipated. Nonetheless, the combination of improving low-level thermodynamics, focused ascent along the front, and 30-40 mph winds within the boundary layer should maintain the snow squall potential well into the afternoon. ..Moore.. 01/14/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Isolated thunderstorms are possible over parts of south Florida, as well as from southeastern New York across parts of New England. ...Synopsis... Mid-morning water-vapor imagery and upper-air analyses continue to show the east/northeastward progression of a strong upper wave over the upper OH River Valley/New England with an attendant - but slowly occluding - surface cyclone over eastern Canada. A trailing cold front is noted in surface observations from upstate NY to the southwest along the southern Appalachians into the lower MS Valley and TX Gulf Coast region. This boundary will continue migrating east/southeast through the day as an arctic air mass overspreads much of the eastern two-thirds of the CONUS. The frigid air will negate convective potential for most regions today with the exception of south Florida and parts of New England. ...South Florida... A residual frontal boundary from a previous cool air intrusion into the Gulf is noted in visible imagery across south FL with occasional convection/lightning flashes noted over the past few hours. Regional 12 UTC soundings sampled poor mid-level lapse rates, but sufficient elevated buoyancy is in place above the shallow frontal layer to continue to support isolated thunderstorms through today/tonight as lift ahead of an approaching mid-level disturbance overspreads the region. ...New England... Shallow convection is noted along/behind the cold front across portions of PA and NY this morning. While this activity is currently too cool and shallow to support lightning production, a combination of diurnal warming, a weak influx of moisture from the Mid-Atlantic coast, and cool mid-level temperatures may provide adequate buoyancy for a few lightning flashes later this afternoon across southeast NY into the New England region. ..Moore.. 01/14/2024 Read more View the full article

  19. MD 0062 CONCERNING SNOW SQUALL FOR PA INTO SOUTHERN NY Mesoscale Discussion 0062 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0725 AM CST Sun Jan 14 2024 Areas affected...PA into southern NY Concerning...Snow Squall Valid 141325Z - 141700Z SUMMARY...Snow squall potential will spread east-northeastward this morning across Pennsylvania into parts of southern New York. The stronger squalls will be accompanied by brief heavy snow rates, gusty winds, and abrupt visibility reductions. DISCUSSION...Multiple snow bands are ongoing across parts of western/central PA this morning. These bands are ongoing within a broadly confluent frontal zone and are likely being aided by a mid/upper-level shortwave trough approaching the upper Great Lakes region. The downstream environment is expected to become increasingly favorable for snow squalls with time, with strong cooling aloft (dropping below -20C at 700 mb) supporting steep low-level lapse rates and SBCAPE eventually approaching 100 J/kg, even with temperatures only warming into the low 30s F. The ongoing snow bands have already produced gusts in the 30-35 mph range, and strong southwesterly flow in the lowest 3 km AGL may support gusts greater than 40 mph, as low-level lapse rates steepen with time. It remains uncertain as to whether a more organized and extensive snow band will develop with time, with frontal convergence expected to remain relatively modest. However, even if such a band does not evolve, multiple smaller-scale bands will be capable of producing snow squalls with briefly heavy snow rates, gusty winds, and abrupt visibility reductions. ..Dean.. 01/14/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

  20. SPC 1300Z Day 1 Outlook Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0643 AM CST Sun Jan 14 2024 Valid 141300Z - 151200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Isolated thunderstorms are possible over parts of south Florida, as well as from southeastern New York across parts of New England. ...Synopsis/Discussion... A strong mid/upper-level low will meander across the James Bay region through the period, with an extensive fetch of cyclonic flow covering most of the CONUS. Most of the associated/embedded shortwave troughs will remain too removed from suitable low-level moisture/instability to influence thunder potential, with two exceptions: 1. A perturbation now located over parts of OH/IN, is forecast to move east-northeastward across the northern Mid-Atlantic and New England through 00Z. Associated strong large-scale scent/cooling aloft today will help to offset cool near-surface temperatures across parts of southern New England, generating weak surface-based buoyancy anyway, with MLCAPE up to about 100 J/kg. This will support a fast-moving band of low-topped convection extending above the -20 deg C isotherm at times, with isolated embedded thunder. Downdrafts in a few embedded cells may produce strong gusts via downward momentum transfer. However, given the weak instability, organized severe potential appears too low and conditional to justify a categorical area at this time. 2. A southern-stream shortwave trough and vorticity banner are apparent in moisture-channel imagery over the northwestern Gulf. This positively tilted feature will move rapidly eastward today, crossing central FL around 00Z and south FL shortly thereafter. Associated large-scale lift, atop a residual low-level frontal zone (surface boundary over the Straits/Bahamas), will overlap enough moisture to support sporadic lightning with cells embedded in a precip plume. MUCAPE of 300-500 J/kg is possible, with the Mexican EML previously over the region having advected away. Still, midlevel lapse rates will be weak, with low CAPE density. Enough deep shear may remain to support some convective organization, but lack of greater instability and lift will keep severe potential meager at most. ..Edwards/Dean.. 01/14/2024 Read more View the full article
