AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
610 AM EDT SUN AUG 14 2005

...OVERALL A WARMER THAN NORMAL PATTERN EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THROUGH
AT LEAST THE NEXT 8 DAYS AS AUGUST # OF 90 DEGREE DAYS APPROACHES
RECORDS...

PROBABLE FINAL AFD FOR THE MID SHIFT.

.SYNOPSIS...
THE NEW 00Z/14 CANADIAN 10 DAY NORMALIZED 850 TEMPERATURE PREDICTOR
CONFIRMS SUSPICIONS THAT A WARMER THAN NORMAL PATTERN FOR SNE WILL
CONTINUE THE BULK OF THE NEXT 10 DAYS WITH POTENTIAL FOR TEMPERATURES
AGAIN REACHING 10 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL SOMETIME WITHIN A DAY OR 2 OF
NEXT SATURDAY.

THERE IS A GFS MODEL BIAS IN COOLING THE NE USA THIS MONTH AS SEEN
VIA CDC SCHEMM LINK AND ATTM IT APPEARS THIS BIAS WILL CONTINUE FOR
ANOTHER WEEK OR 2. HAVE NOTICED THE ECMWF TRYING TO COOL THE LR AT
TIMES AND NOT HAPPENING FOR ANY EXTENDED PRD.  NOW THE NEW EC DAY
10 SAMPLE IS SUGGESTING LOBES OF HEAT CONTINGUING TO PUNCH UP INTO
OUR AREA EVEN AROUND THE 24TH.

THIS PATTERN ALSO DOES NOT NECESSARILY BRING LOTS OF RELIEF TO SE
NEW ENGLAND DRYNESS WITH BIG RAINS TENDING TO FOCUS ON THE INTERIOR
WHERE ITS HOTTER ON THE SRN EDGE OF THE WESTERLIES.

&&
.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)...
MESOSCALE ANALYSIS INDICATES ILL DEFINED COLD FRONT OVER EXTREME
NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA. THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO
MAKE LITTLE IF ANY PROGRESS UNTIL THIS EVENING. A WAVE OF LOW
PRESSURE WILL TRACK ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING. THUS THE INHERENT WARM AND MUGGY AIRMASS WILL
REMAIN OVER THE FORECAST AREA TODAY. H850 TEMPERATURES WILL HOLD
FROM +17 TO +19 CELCIUS THROUGH 00Z. SATELLITE PICTURES INDICATE
MAINLY CLEAR SKIES OVER MUCH OF THE REGION. HOWEVER WINDS WILL BLOW
FROM A 200-230 DIRECTION TODAY. THIS MEANS ACTUAL TEMPERATURES WILL
BE SEVERAL DEGREES COOLER TODAY THAN YESTERDAY...BUT HUMIDITY
LEVELS WILL REMAIN JUST AS OPPRESSIVE. THE COMBINATION OF HEAT AND
HUMIDITY WILL BRING HEAT INDICES INTO THE LOWER 100S ACROSS INTERIOR
LOCATIONS THIS AFTERNOON. PREFER THE WARMER MAV MOS TEMPERATURE
GUIDANCE TODAY. THE STORMS PREDICTION CENTER HAS PLACED THE ENTIRE
FORECAST AREA IN A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. CAPE VALUES
RISE TO AROUND 2500 J/KG THIS AFTERNOON. WIND FIELDS FROM 850
THROUGH 700 MILLIBARS WILL INCREASE TO 35 KT THIS AFTERNOON OVER
NORTHERN LOCATIONS. AXIS OF LOW LEVEL INSTABILITY WILL BE CENTERED
FROM A KHFD-KLWM LINE BY 00Z. LOW LEVEL HELICITY VALUES ARE NOT TOO
IMPRESSIVE BUT PROJECTED SOUNDING DATA SUGGEST A WET MICROBURST
POTENTIAL WITH ANY GIVEN THUNDERSTORM. THUS WILL PLAN ON ISSUING A
SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT FOR THE POTENTIAL OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
THIS AFTERNOON. MOST FAVORED LOCATIONS WILL GENERALLY BE ALONG AND
NORTH OF THE MASS PIKE. IN ADDITION PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES NEAR
2.3 G/KG INDICATED THE POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING OF URBAN AND POOR
DRAINAGE AREAS IN ANY GIVEN THUNDERSTORM. WILL HIGHLIGHT THIS
POTENTIAL IN A FLOOD STATEMENT. THE COLD FRONT WILL GRADUALLY CROSS
THE AREA AND REACH THE SOUTH COAST BY 06Z TONIGHT. FOCUS FOR HEAVIER
PRECIPITATION WILL SHIFT TO THOSE LOCATIONS BY THAT TIME.

&&

.LONG TERM (MONDAY THROUGH NEXT SATURDAY)...
MONDAY...MEX GUIDANCE.  DID NOT BUY THE NAM HOLDING ONTO RAIN. ITS
POSSIBLE A FEW SHOWERS WILL SPROUT IN THE AFTERNOON DUE TO HEATING
BUT BUY AND LARGE MODEL CONSENSUS IS COOLER WITH LEFTOVER
CLOUDINESS...ANY SHOWERS TENDING TO BE EARLY IN THE DAYLIGHT HOURS OF
THE SE PTN OF THE FCST AREA.  06Z GFS CONTS THE 00Z TREND OF DRYING
FM THE N.

TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...CONTINUITY PRIOR FCST FM SAT AFTN PKG.

THURSDAY...CHILLED THE MORNING A BIT VIA RADIATIONAL COOLING AS A
NUMBER OF MODELS BRING IN A COOL HIGH.

FRIDAY...18Z/13 ENSEMBLES BROUGHT WAA SHOWERS ASSTD WITH A WK 850
JET ON THE RETURN FLOW OF THE DEPARTING HIGH.  RAISED POPS A TAD.
THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF WHAT COULD BE ANOTHER SIGNIFICANT HOT SPELL.

SATURDAY...RAISED TEMPERATURES ABOVE 00Z/14 MEX GUIDANCE WHICH BLV
IS BIASED TOO COOL BY NOT ONLY MOS CLIMO BUT ALSO PATTERN CLIMO.

THIS COULD BE PART OF THE THE BEGINNING OF ANOTHER PERIOD OF 90
DEGREE WX WITH MINOR COOL DOWNS DUE TO WIND DIRECTION AND PROXIMITY
TO THE OCEAN.

&&

.AVIATION...
MVFR VISIBILITIES IN HAZE AND PATCHY FOG EXPECTED ALL TERMINALS
THROUGH TONIGHT. IN ADDITION SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
EXPECTED ALL TERMINALS...BEGINNING 18Z WEST AND ARRIVING BY 00Z
EAST....EXCEPT CLOSER TO 06Z KHYA-KACK.

&&

.MARINE...
SWELLS FROM IRENE CURRENTLY REACHING THE COASTAL WATERS WILL ONLY
CONTRIBUTE ABOUT 3 FEET TO THE SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT. THE TRACK
OF IRENE WILL NOW OCCUR FURTHER SE OF THE WATERS. THUS THE THREAT
FOR RIPTIDES HAS SOMEWHAT DIMINISHED.

LONGER RANGE...A PERIOD OF SOLID NE FLOW MONDAY SHOULD CREATE
GENERAL SCA CONDITIONS IN THE OPEN WATERS AND MASKING SOME OF THE
ENERGY RIDING NWWD FROM IRENE.STILL SOME RIP ENERGY CONCERN MONDAY.
WOULD LIKE SEAS TO BE MOSTLY SE SWELL ENERGY FM IRENE BEOFRE
HITTING THE RIP CURRENT SITN HEAVILY.

.CLIMATOLOGY...
AUGUST 90 DEG DAYS IN MONTH APPROACHING RER NUMBER.

PVD THRU 8/13 HAS SIX 90 DEG DAYS IN AUG. RER IS 8 WITH PRD OF RER
DATING BACK TO 1904.  8 OCCURRED IN 1947...1949..1988.   UNLESS PVD
GETS DOUSED WITH 3 INCHES OF RAIN IN THE NEXT WEEK...THINK THIS RER
COULD BE EQUALED OR EXCEEDED BY 8/22.  THE DRY SFC SOILS PLAY A ROLE
IN EXTRA HEATING.  SUSPECT SAME FOR TAN AND BDL AREA.

BDL AS OF 8/13  NINE 90 PLUS. RER NUMBER IS 14 IN 1988.

RERS POSTED FOR BOTH PVD/BDL ON THE DAILIES YEYSTERDAY 8/13/05.

VULNERABLE AT .82 AND 1.26 RESPECTIVELY.
