247 FXUS61 KOKX 150020 AFDOKX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service New York NY 820 PM EDT Mon Sep 14 2026 .WHAT HAS CHANGED... No significant changes were made to the forecast during this update. && .KEY MESSAGES... 1) Dry and sunny conditions through mid week. No hazardous weather expected. 2) A couple of chances of rain in the mid to long term starting Thursday night. Limited to no impacts expected. && .DISCUSSION... .KEY MESSAGE 1... N winds will continue to diminish tonight under clear skies as high pressure builds in from the west. The light winds and clear skies will promote good radiational cooling. Temps tonight will be on the cooler side of the guidance, with 40s inland and in the Long Island Pine Barrens and the 50s elsewhere. The forecast low of 57 at Central Park would be the first time the low temp there has been below 60 since June 16th. Tue should also be on the cooler side, with highs in the lower 70s. As high pressure slides offshore, temps should moderate to a few deg above normal for Wed and Thu, with highs from the mid 70s to lower 80s. .KEY MESSAGE 2... A cold front is progged to pass through during Thursday night. Low chance of rain during this period, and with the loss of CAPE, no thunder expected. Rain threat should be done by the Friday morning commute with the cold front offshore by this time. Some disagreement among models regarding what would be another cold front passage this weekend. Most likely time of its passage would be Sunday morning, but its possible it lingers over or near us into Monday. Rain chances kept below 50% Saturday night through Monday. Any instability would probably be limited, so while it`s too early to have high confidence, severe weather and flooding chances so far appear to be very low to none. && .AVIATION /00Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
