126 FXUS61 KOKX 021122 AFDOKX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service New York NY 722 AM EDT Sat Aug 2 2025 .SYNOPSIS... High pressure remains in control through midweek before a frontal system approaches toward week`s end. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... High pressure continues to build into the area from the west with flow becoming light and variable for much of the area this morning. Some patchy fog is possible early this morning with some interior locations radiationally cooling into the upper 50s to low 60s. A much drier and cooler airmass is associated with this high pressure system. This will allow for comfortable temperatures today with highs in the upper 70s to low 80s and dewpoints in the 50s. && .SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/... The mostly clear, dry, and relatively calm conditions will persist through much of the short term forecast as high pressure continues to shift into the area this weekend. The high will gradually settle over the area by Monday. The clear conditions with generally light flow will allow for dewpoints to remain in the upper 50s to low 60s through Monday. High temperatures will gradually increase through Monday with highs on Sunday in the low to middle 80s and highs on Monday in the upper 80s to low 90s. Despite the increase in temperatures, lower dewpoints will make the heat much more bearable. Clear skies and light flow will provide for ideal radiational cooling conditions at night so lows will be generally on the cooler side. Lows Saturday night are expected to be in the 50s for inland areas and low 60s for the coast. Lows by Sunday night will increase a bit with interior areas cooling to the upper 50s and coastal areas cooling to the middle to upper 60s. Patchy fog will be possible each night, especially in cooler spots for the interior. && .LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... The NBM was largely followed with this update with no major changes. Key Points: * Generally dry conditions are expected through Thursday. A frontal system then approaches toward the end of the week. * Seasonable temperatures through the period with highs in the 80s and lower humidity than in recent days. A decent stretch of sensible weather is in store for the extended as global models and their respective ensembles advertise a building upper ridge and high pressure at the surface much of the period. With strong ridging over the Four Corners region, a few weak shortwaves will pass through the northeast ridge during the period without much fanfare. The flow attempts to flatten some by late Thursday into Friday, as the surface high retreats to the south and a front approaches from the OH Valley. Slight chance PoPs for Friday associated with this front, which seems reasonable this far out. && .AVIATION /12Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... High pressure will build in from the northwest through the TAF period. VFR. NE 5-10 kt through midday. Southerly seabreezes below 10 kt are possible in the afternoon. Winds go light and variable late in the evening into the night. Rinse & repeat for tomorrow. NY Metro (KEWR/KLGA/KJFK/KTEB) TAF Uncertainty... No unscheduled amendments expected. .OUTLOOK FOR 12Z SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY... Sunday - Wednesday: VFR. Detailed information, including hourly TAF wind component forecasts, can be found at: https:/www.weather.gov/zny/n90 && .MARINE... Weakening winds and diminishing seas have provided for the cancellation of the Small Craft Advisory this morning. Sub-SCA conditions will persist for all of the forecast waters through at least Wednesday with a light flow as high pressure settles over the area. && .HYDROLOGY... There are no hydrologic concerns through next week. && .TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING... Rip current risk for ocean beaches is moderate today with a decreasing wave component. This will continue to lower for the rest of the weekend, with a low risk of rip currents for ocean beaches on Sunday. && .OKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CT...None. NY...None. NJ...None.
