AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW YORK NY
332 PM EDT SAT JUL 5 2025
SYNOPSIS
HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS IN CONTROL THROUGH THE WEEKEND. A COLD
FRONT THEN APPROACHES FROM THE GREAT LAKES ON MONDAY, PASSING
SLOWLY ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY OR EVEN STALLING IN CLOSE PROXIMITY
INTO MIDWEEK. A MORE ROBUST FRONTAL SYSTEM MAY APPROACH THE AREA
BY THE END OF THE WEEK.
NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/
HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC RIDGES INTO THE
REGION WITH A LIGHT SW FLOW. THIS WILL RESULT IN HIGHER DEWPOINTS
AND LOW TEMPERATURES COMPARED TO LAST NIGHT. DRY THROUGH THE NIGHT
WITH LOWS RANGING FROM THE LOW 70S IN THE CITY AND AROUND 70 FOR
MOST COASTAL AREAS, TO THE MID 60S WELL INLAND.
SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/
DRY WEATHER CONTINUES ON SUNDAY WITH SUBSIDENCE AND CAPPING. H8
TEMPERATURES WARM UP TO 17-18C, SO ANTICIPATING HIGHS IN THE LOW-MID
90S IN THE USUAL WARMEST SPOTS IN NE NJ, AND MOSTLY UPPER 80S TO
AROUND 90 AWAY FROM THE IMMEDIATE SOUTH-FACING COASTS.
DEWPOINTS NEAR THE THE TOP OF THE MIXED LAYER LOOK LOW ENOUGH FOR
SURFACE DEWPOINTS TO MIX OUT AT LEAST A LITTLE DURING THE AFTERNOON
FOR AREAS AWAY FROM THE COAST - EVEN ON A SW FLOW. THIS WILL HELP
KEEP HEAT INDICES BELOW ADVISORY THRESHOLDS. DRY FOR SUNDAY NIGHT
WITH PATCHY FOG LATE.
THE FLOW ALOFT REMAINS ANTICYCLONIC DURING MONDAY, BUT LESS SO
DURING MONDAY NIGHT AS THE REMNANT CIRCULATION FROM CHANTAL
APPROACHES FROM THE SOUTH. IT PROBABLY REMAINS DRY THROUGH MOST
OF THE MORNING AS THE ONLY NOTABLE LIFT AVAILABLE APPEARS TO BE
FROM INCREASING INSTABILITY, BUT HELD IN CHECK BY MID-LEVEL
CAPPING. SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WOULD THEN BEGIN THEREAFTER
WITH MECHANICAL LIFT JOINING IN VIA A SUBTLE SHORTWAVE(S) HEAD
OF CHANTAL'S CIRCULATION. CHANCES THEN CONTINUE THROUGH MONDAY
NIGHT WITH THE REMNANT SYSTEM EVEN CLOSER, BUT THERE'S NOT
ENOUGH CONFIDENCE FROM THE VARYING MODEL SOLUTIONS TO GO WITH
LIKELY POPS. SOME GUIDANCE EVEN SUGGESTS A NARROW BAND OF
SUBSIDENCE FORMING OVER THE FORECAST AREA BETWEEN AN
APPROACHING COLD FRONT FROM THE WEST AND CHANTAL'S REMNANTS FROM
THE SOUTH. PLEASE REFER TO THE LATEST OFFICIAL FORECAST FROM
THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER REGARDING TROPICAL CYCLONE
CHANTAL.
REGARDING TEMPERATURES AND HEAT INDICES FOR MONDAY, H8 TEMPERATURES
DON'T CHANGE ALL THAT MUCH FROM SUNDAY, BUT WILL PERHAPS BE SLIGHTLY
WARMER. EVEN IF THIS IS THE CASE, THERE SHOULD BE MORE AFTERNOON
CLOUD COVER AS COMPARED TO SUNDAY, THEREFORE ANTICIPATING SLIGHTLY
LOWER HIGH TEMPS FOR THE MOST PART THIS TIME AROUND. SURFACE
DEWPOINTS WILL BE HIGHER, HOWEVER. BOUNDARY LAYER DEWPOINTS INCREASE
WITH THE APPROACH OF CHANTAL'S REMNANTS, MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR
SURFACE DEWPOINTS TO MIX OUT. RIGHT NOW IT STILL APPEARS THAT 1-DAY
HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA WILL NOT BE MET. HOWEVER, AN ADVISORY COULD
STILL BE NEEDED IN A FEW AREAS FOR MONDAY-TUESDAY BASED ON 2-DAY
CRITERIA.
LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/
DESPITE THE UNSETTLED NATURE OF THE EXTENDED FORECAST, GLOBAL MODELS
WERE IN FAIRLY DECENT AGREEMENT, SO THE NBM WAS FOLLOWED.
A COLD FRONT WILL EVENTUALLY MOVE THROUGH THE AREA AND STALL IN THE
VICINITY TUESDAY. ON TUESDAY, HEIGHTS ALOFT WILL LOWER BUT FLOW
SHOULD REMAIN FAIRLY ZONAL WITH A SUBTLE TROUGH TO THE WEST.
DISTURBANCES IN THE FLOW WILL TRAVERSE THE AREA THROUGH MUCH OF THE
MIDDLE OF THE WEEK.
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC WILL PROMOTE A GENERAL S/SW
FLOW WHICH LIKELY BRINGS SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE UP THE EAST COAST. THE
COMBINATION OF SEVERAL MID-LEVEL DISTURBANCES MOVING THROUGH, A
STALLED SURFACE BOUNDARY IN THE VICINITY, AND A MOIST S/SW FLOW WILL
ALLOW FOR MUCH OF THE EXTENDED PORTION OF THE FORECAST TO HAVE A
CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. WPC HAS THE AREA IN A MARGINAL
RISK FOR EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FROM TUESDAY TO WEDNESDAY MORNING.
SHOWERS AND STORMS DURING THIS PERIOD MAY PRODUCE LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL WITH SOME ISOLATED HYDROLOGIC CONCERNS.
BY THE END OF THE WEEK, MORE ROBUST ENERGY IN THE FLOW APPROACHES
FROM THE WEST AND ALLOWS THE TROUGH TO DIG INTO THE NORTHEAST. THIS
WILL PROVIDE FOR A BETTER OPPORTUNITY FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS AS WELL
AS A SLIGHT DECREASES IN TEMPERATURES. HIGH PRESSURE MAY TRY TO
BUILD IN FROM THE NORTHEAST BY SATURDAY.
DESPITE CHANCES FOR SHOWERS EACH DAY, HIGH TEMPERATURES SHOULD
REMAIN IN THE MIDDLE 80S THROUGH MID-WEEK AND UPPER 70S TO LOW 80S
BY THE END OF THE WEEK.
