136 FXUS61 KALY 032332 AFDALY AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Albany NY 732 PM EDT Thu Jul 3 2025 .SYNOPSIS... Isolated showers and thunderstorms will taper off early this evening in the wake of a cold frontal passage. High pressure will bring dry conditions for Friday through Sunday, with increasing heat and humidity by Sunday into early next week. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/... .UPDATE...As of 730 PM EDT, severe weather has ended across the region. Any remaining showers and rumbles of thunder will remain below severe limits early this evening and gradually diminish. High pressure builds into the region overnight with clearing skies and less humid conditions. Some patchy fog will likely form in areas that saw rainfall this afternoon. Low temperatures will fall back into the 50s with some upper 40s across the Adirondacks and southern Greens. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... Dry weather is expected Friday through Saturday night along with mostly sunny/clear skies. Temperatures will be a bit below normal Friday into Friday night, with highs in the 70s to lower 80s, and lows Friday night dropping into the 40s to lower/mid 50s. Low PWAT`s, clear skies and light/calm winds should allow temps to drop off rapidly after sunset, so expect somewhat chilly temps across the southern Adirondacks Friday night. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... By Sunday, hotter and more humid conditions develop, with high temps reaching the upper 80s to lower 90s. As dewpoints climb well into the 60s, heat indices could reach the mid 90s across portions of the Mohawk and upper Hudson River Valleys. Similar heat indices are possible Monday. Some heat advisories may need to be issued should confidence in these heat indices increase. Will have to watch for some potential ridge rolling disturbances beginning late Sunday and continuing through Monday. Best chances would be across northern areas, however there remains low confidence at this time to include anything more than some slight chance/low chance PoPs. A frontal system looks to bring better chances for showers/thunderstorms late Monday into Tuesday. The front may stall near or just south/east of the region thereafter, bringing scattered showers/thunderstorms to portions of the area through late week. It looks to remain warm and humid much of next week, with highs mainly in the 80s and overnight lows in the 60s. && .AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... Through 00z/Sat...Any remaining isolated showers and rumbles of thunder should remain away from the TAF sites this evening. VFR conditions are expected for much of the TAF period outside of any fog development tonight, mainly at KGFL/KPOU/KPSF. Wind will become light to calm tonight then north to northwesterly on Friday at around 10 kt with a few gusts to around 20 kt. Outlook... Friday Night: No Operational Impact. NO SIG WX.
