270 FXUS61 KOKX 090648 AFDOKX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service New York NY 248 AM EDT Fri Oct 9 2026 .WHAT HAS CHANGED... No significant changes were made to the forecast with the latest update. && .KEY MESSAGES... 1) Dry and seasonable through Saturday. 2) An area of low pressure will bring rain to the area Sunday into Monday. && .DISCUSSION... .KEY MESSAGE 1... Another shortwave aloft and associated weak surface trough will move through the area late this morning/early afternoon. Thereafter, high pressure builds in and remains in control through Saturday. This pattern will bring dry and seasonable conditions. Went higher than NBM with gusts and lower than NBM with Tds given deep mixing expected today. Additionally, blended in CONSMOS for temperatures tonight as high pressure settles over the area. The combination of the dry airmass, light winds and mostly clear skies will allow the usual cool spots to radiate down to the upper 30s/lower 40s. There is potential for some high clouds to work against this, but will ultimately depend on coverage and thickness. Should high cloud cover be more significant than forecast, tonight`s low temperatures could end up a few degrees warmer. No frost/freeze is expected. .KEY MESSAGE 2... Hurricane Isaias is forecast to make landfall tonight along the eastern Gulf Coast. Refer to the latest official track and intensity forecasts from the National Hurricane Center for additional details. Remnant moisture from this system then looks to interact with mid-latitude energy, bringing a period of moderate to locally heavy rainfall across the area Sunday into Monday. There continues to be little change with the forecast/potential impacts with this system for our area and at this time no significant impacts are expected. The system will be progressive and the current forecast is a widespread inch of rain over an 18-24 hour period starting Sunday late morning/early afternoon. Given pwats approaching 2 inches and some elevated instability (dependent on track), a widespread 1 to 2 inches with locally higher amounts can not be ruled out. At this time this would be a reasonable worst case rainfall. WPC maintains a marginal risk of excessive rainfall for northeast NJ, NYC and Long Island. Most likely impacts would be minor urban and poor drainage flooding. S/SE winds Sunday night may briefly reach 25 to 35 mph along the coast. There is a new moon on Saturday and coastal locations will need about 1 to 2 ft to reach minor coastal flood benchmarks, which is not expected at this time. && .AVIATION /07Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
