.SYNOPSIS...

frontal passage tonight. High pressure will then build east through
the middle of the week, gradually moving offshore mid to late next
week. A frontal system may approach the area Friday into next
weekend.

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
-- Changed Discussion --
Gradual drying and clearing across NYC and points N&W in wake of pre-frontal trough this evening, with shra/tstm threat having now ended and exited east (with the exception of a few light showers left over in far eastern areas of the CWA). These drying conds will gradually slide eastward through the evening. Otherwise, cold front approaches this evening and crosses tonight, with gusty N/NW winds bringing in a much drier Canadian airmass. Overall, timing of the sfc trough has been slightly quicker to exit than originally anticipated. For this evening`s forecast update, sky cover and POPs have been lowered through the rest of the evening along with minor adjustments to hourly temperatures and dewpoints.

&& .SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY/... Northern stream trough will slowly slide over the region Monday into Monday Night and gradually east on Tuesday. At the surface, high pressure gradually build in from the west on Monday and then overhead on Tuesday. Dry and seasonably warm conditions on Monday with gusty N/NW winds and sct aft/eve cu development ahead of approaching secondary cold front. Secondary cold front crosses Mon eve with reinforcing short of Canadian airmass. The mixed low-levels should keep temps from radiatively bottoming out, but still lows in the 40s across outlying areas and 50s NYC/NJ metro. Sunny and slightly below seasonable temps on Tuesday as heart of Canadian airmass settles over the region. && .LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/... High pressure moves overhead Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, then gradually pushes offshore Wednesday night into Thursday. Skies are expected to be clear to mostly clear during this time frame. The high remains offshore Friday leading to a return flow from the south, which means increasing temperatures and dewpoints late next week and an increase in cloud cover. Conditions look to become unsettled next weekend as a frontal system approaches from the west. At the same time, low pressure develops along an old frontal boundary to the south, which also may approach the area. Guidance still varies in timing and placement of these systems. The 12Z GFS and GDPS bring the coastal low over the area while the 12Z ICON keeps it far out to sea. The 12Z ECMWF develops two coastal lows, kicking one out to sea, then another up the east coast. Ensembles also vary, with some bringing a coastal low up the coast into our area while others keep it far out to sea. Until this event comes more into focus, exact impacts will be hard to pinpoint. Highs during the long term will be in the 70s. Lows Tuesday night into Wednesday morning will dip into the upper-40s in the interior and into the 50s almost everywhere else. Thereafter, overnight lows are expected to warm to the 50s and 60s by the weekend due to increased cloud cover, warm advection, and a more humid air mass in place. && .AVIATION /22Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... A pre-frontal trough exits east this afternoon, followed by a cold front passage around midnight tonight. High pressure builds in thereafter. VFR, except a couple more hours of sub-VFR to start with at KGON and possibly KISP as well. Still a chance of showers over the next hour or two, but only east of the city terminals. Iso tstm possible at KISP before around 21z. SW winds around 10 kt will shift more westerly towards midnight, then shifting NW-NNW around midnight behind the cold front. Gusts 16-20kt for Monday, mainly in the afternoon. ...NY Metro (KEWR/KLGA/KJFK/KTEB) TAF Uncertainty... Winds may be NW-W at KLGA/KEWR until around 21z before returning SW. OUTLOOK FOR 18Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY... Monday through Thursday: VFR. Friday: Mainly VFR. Chance of PM MVFR and -shra. Detailed information, including hourly TAF wind component forecasts, can be found at: https:/www.weather.gov/zny/n90 && .MARINE... Winds and waves likely remain below SCA criteria through Friday night. Northerly winds gusts may reach 20 kts late tonight into both Monday morning, with occasional gusts to 25 kt possible Monday night into Tuesday morning. Next chance of SCA conditions not until Friday night. && .HYDROLOGY... Localized flash flood threat for mainly northern Suffolk County and northern Middlesex and New London with training convection sliding eastward through late aft/early eve. A quick 1 1/2 to 2 inches likely in these area, with low prob of 2 1/2"+ with localized backbuilding. Thereafter, no hydrologic impacts are expected thereafter. && .TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING... Rip current activity is expected to be moderate for all Long Island beaches on Labor Day, but may taper down to low late afternoon into the evening. Rip currents are expected to be low on Tuesday. && .OKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CT...None. NY...None. NJ...None.
