233 FXUS61 KOKX 100542 AFDOKX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service New York NY 142 AM EDT Mon Aug 10 2026 .WHAT HAS CHANGED... No significant changes since last update. && .KEY MESSAGES... 1) Hot weather continues into Monday, but relief is in sight later this week. 2) Showers and thunderstorms are possible late Monday afternoon into evening. An isolated severe storm possible. Afterwards, we remain dry the remainder of the week except for Wednesday night into Thursday. && .DISCUSSION... .KEY MESSAGE 1... A warm front will bring another round of warm, humid air into the area on Monday with highs in the upper 80s to mid 90s. Heat indices will range 95 to 100 in areas of the heat advisory. Elsewhere, heat indices are anticipated to remain below 95. Following a cold front Monday, cooler air is expected to filter in with highs in the mid to upper 80s Tue-Thu, then down into the low 80s by Friday. .KEY MESSAGE 2... A warm front Monday will lead to a warm and unstable airmass over the area. Then a cold front is anticipated to pass through the area with shortwave energy aloft late afternoon into the evening. Ahead of it, PWATs will peak 1.9 to 2.1 inches. With the aid of lift from the front, a scattered to broken line of showers and thunderstorms is anticipated to track across the area west to east from 4 PM to 11 PM. The timing of the front is still somewhat variable among the available among available model guidance. An isolated severe thunderstorm with brief downpours are possible. 12Z model soundings and available 12Z CAMs have a near- storm environment of 30 to 45 kt Bulk Shear, SBCAPE 2500-3500 J/kg (some CAMs up to 4500 J/kg), DCAPE 900-1100 J/kg, and peak 0-3km lapse rated of 8.2 to 9 C/km. For now, SPC has expanded a marginal (level 1/5) risk for severe thunderstorms over the western two-thirds of the CWA. This risk appears reasonable. The severe risk does appear to be less if the front arrives too late in the evening, so it will really all hinge on the timing of the front. The primary risk with these severe storms will be straight-line damaging winds. The remainder of the week is anticipated to stay dry with only minor shots of any precipitation from passing shortwaves and fronts. The only good chance for another round of rainfall after Monday appears to be Wednesday evening into Thursday. && .AVIATION /06Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... A warm front lifts north of the terminals today. A surface trough then likely moves through late day into the evening. Mainly VFR. PROB30s remain for a chance for MVFR in potential showers and thunderstorms late this afternoon into early evening. A few showers are still possible thereafter until around midnight or so. N to NE or light and variable winds expected through the morning push. Southerly flow develops thereafter, becoming more SSW-SW in the afternoon and evening, increasing 9-12 kt. A light westerly flow follows for the overnight. ...NY Metro (KEWR/KLGA/KJFK/KTEB) TAF Uncertainty... A light SE to S flow could prevail from approx 12-17z. Amendments possible for PROB30 TSRA timing. .OUTLOOK FOR 06Z TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY... Late tonight: VFR. Tuesday-Wednesday: VFR. Wednesday Night-Thursday: Chance of showers and thunderstorms and MVFR. W gusts 15-20 kt possible on Thursday. Friday: VFR. Detailed information, including hourly TAF wind component forecasts, can be found at: https:/www.weather.gov/zny/n90 && .MARINE... Winds and seas will remain below SCA levels through the middle of next week. Rip Currents: Lingering S-SE swells will lead to a moderate rip current risk through Tuesday at ocean beaches. && .OKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

Mountain & avalanche safety

Know before you go
Check today's avalanche bulletin from the regional avalanche center before any off-piste / side-country / backcountry travel. Conditions can shift dramatically between morning and afternoon on storm days.
Carry the gear, know how to use it
Beacon, shovel, probe. Practice companion rescue on a calm day, not during a real burial.
Mind the weather window
Heavy snow + wind builds wind slabs at ridgelines. The day after a storm is often the riskiest in the backcountry, even if the resort itself is open.
Respect closed terrain
Ropes are there for a reason. Even in-bounds, ducking a closure can trigger a slide that catches you and others below.

FAQ

About Campgaw Mountain

Where does the snow data for Campgaw Mountain come from?

Snowpack, SWE, 24-hour snowfall, and air temperature come from the nearest USDA NRCS SNOTEL station. Forecast comes from the National Weather Service / yr.no feed that Snoflo's iOS app uses.

How often is the snow report updated?

Snowpack and SNOTEL data are updated continuously by NRCS (typically hourly). The 15-day weather forecast is refreshed throughout the day. Snoflo caches and renders the most recent observation -- look for the "as of" timestamp on the snowpack hero.

What's the elevation at Campgaw Mountain?

See the Resort Metrics panel above for base / summit / vertical drop. The summit elevation drives snowpack accumulation -- higher summits hold snow longer through spring.

How is "% of normal" calculated?

Today's snowpack is compared to the average snowpack on this calendar day across every recorded year at the nearest SNOTEL. 100% means right on average; 130% is a big year; 60% is thin.

What ski resorts are near Campgaw Mountain?

See the Other Ski Areas pill grid at the bottom of the page for resorts within driving distance. The sister Other Ski Areas card in the Plan-a-longer-trip grid above shows the closest few.

Can I get alerts when fresh snow hits?

Yes -- snow alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this resort, set a snowfall threshold (e.g. "alert me when 6+ inches"), and you'll get a push the moment the SNOTEL crosses.
