.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure builds in overnight and remains in control through
Wednesday. A quick moving low then moves through Wednesday night.
High pressure builds in on Thursday and remains in place through
early Friday. Then, a Canadian low brings through a cold front
Friday night into Saturday morning. High pressure follows the
cold front until another low pressure system impacts the region
Sunday into Monday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
High pressure builds in at the surface today as strengthening
low pressure over the Canadian Maritimes heads farther north.
The strong pressure gradient over the region will slowly relax
today, allowing winds to diminish, mainly from mid to late
afternoon onward. WNW at 15 to around 20 mph sustained this
morning will diminish to around 10 to 15 mph by late this
afternoon. Gusts of 25 to 35 mph (highest across the Twin Forks
of Long Island) this morning will diminish to 20 to 25 mph by
late this afternoon. Highs will be near normal, in the upper 50s
to around 60.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
The center of high pressure passes well south of the area
tonight. Clear skies are expected, but winds are not expected to
go completely calm, so outlying areas will not see optimal
radiational cooling conditions (unless winds to decouple, then
temperatures will be cooler than what is currently forecast).
Despite this, it may get cold and calm enough inland for areas
of frost to develop. Since the growing season is over in those
areas, a Frost Advisory was not issued.

A clipper system approaches the area Wednesday and into
Wednesday night. The surface low passes to the north and the
better chances of precipitation will be across the northern
areas. Another period of gusty westerly winds develop late
Wednesday night in the wake of the low as the system continues
to deepens as the low moves off the New England coast by
Thursday morning. Gusts are likely higher than last tonight`s
but will likely also remain below Wind Advisory criteria. For
winds and gusts used a blend of the NBM and NBM 90th.

Low pressure exits northeast as high pressure builds in on
Thursday into Thursday night. It will still remain breezy
Thursday as a strong pressure gradient remains over the region,
but this gradient will continue to relax into the afternoon and
evening, leading to winds ramping down through the day Thursday.

A bit of a warm up on Thursday, with highs in the upper 50s to
middle 60s, and cooler for Thursday, with highs in the lower to
middle 50s.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
High pressure remains in place through the day Friday. Dry
weather is anticipated through then.

A Canadian low will pass to our north, dragging through a cold front
Friday night into Saturday morning. This will bring with it rain and
wind. Rain is mainly timed for overnight Friday night while winds
are expected to increase through the day Friday, peaking Friday
evening and early Friday night.

Following the cold front, we dry out again until another system
impacts us Sunday into Monday. Timing and magnitude still vary among
the guidance during this time frame, so for now only carrying
slight to chance POPs. Breezy conditions will again return with
this system.

Highs remain in the 50s to low 60s for Friday and Saturday. A
cooling trend is expected from Sunday through Tuesday as highs
near normal on Sunday are expected to not get out of the 40s for
much of the area on Monday. It will be a chilly Thursday night
as lows dip into the 20s in the interior and into the 30s to
around 40 elsewhere. SW flow and rainfall will lead to a
significantly warmer night Friday night with lows in the mid 40s
to low 50s. Thereafter cooler nights return to round out the
weekend.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
High pressure builds into the region today.

VFR.

WNW winds gusting around 25kt through the morning push, then
increasing toward 30kt this morning and lasting through most of
the day. Winds diminish and lose gusts this evening, eventually
falling below 10kt tonight.

 ...NY Metro (KEWR/KLGA/KJFK/KTEB) TAF Uncertainty...

Winds expected to remain left/south of 310 magnetic through this
evening. End time of gusts late day/early evening may be off by an
hour or two.

.OUTLOOK FOR 12Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...

Wednesday: VFR. Chance of showers at night SW-S winds 15g25kt
in the afternoon, becoming W G20-30kt at night.

Thursday: VFR. NW winds around 15g25kt possible.

Friday: VFR. SW-S winds 10-15,g20-25kt possible. Rain with sub VFR
at night.

Saturday: Sub VFR possible early, otherwise VFR with W winds.

.MARINE...
Winds over the non-ocean waters have to diminished to below 35
kt. Occasional gusts to 35 to 40 kt are still possible through
daybreak, but widespread gale gusts have ended, thus have
converted Gale Warnings to SCAs. The gales on the ocean will
continue until early afternoon, then also be converted to SCAs.
SCA gusts continue through Tuesday and possibly into Tuesday
evening, especially for the eastern forecast waters. Winds fall
below 25 kt for non- ocean waters this evening, and by around
midnight for the ocean waters. Waves of 4 to 9 ft on the ocean
and 3 to 6 ft on the sound subside through the day today falling
below 5 ft on the sound by this evening and after midnight on
the ocean waters.

Then with the passage of a clipper system passing to the north
of the waters Wednesday night and deepening off the New England
coast, another period of gale force gusts are likely across all
the waters, and have continued to highlight this in the HWOOKX,
Hazardous Weather Outlook.

Strong offshore winds along with astronomical low tides will lead
to abnormally low water levels for the low tides Wednesday
night into Thursday morning. Water levels could fall to 2 ft
below MLLW levels. This can lead to hazardous navigating
conditions near the coast.

Gales should end by midday Thursday as the pressure gradient
continually weakens into the day as high pressure builds in. Waves
on ocean waters should drop below SCA levels Thursday night. Gales
will again be possible on ocean waters with SCA-level gusts on non
ocean waters as our next cold front approaches and passes late
Friday into Saturday morning. Conditions improve late Saturday and
remain below SCA-levels until our next system passes Sunday into
Monday.
