Area forecast discussion, Jul 15, 4:00 PM EDT, 23 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
400 PM EDT SUN JUL 15 2007
.SYNOPSIS...
A SERIES OF SLOW MOVING COLD FRONTS WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION...EACH
BRINGING A ROUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. THE FIRST ONE WILL MOVE
THROUGH TONIGHT...FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER WEDNESDAY AND A THIRD ON FRIDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH NUMBER 518 REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 8PM
THIS EVENING. HAVE DECIDED TO TRIM SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE WATCH
ALONG THE RHODE ISLAND AND SOUTHEAST MASSACHUSETTS COASTS GIVEN
SOUTHWEST FLOW OFF THE OCEAN YIELDING SUFFICENT CONVECTIVE
INHIBITION. ELSEWHERE ACROSS THE INTERIOR...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
CONTINUE THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING...BUT THE ACTIVITY SHOULD QUICKLY
DIMINISH DUE TO THE LOSS OF HEATING AND MODEST MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES.
INCLUDED THE MENTION OF PATCHY FOG ESPECIALLY ALONG THE SOUTH COAST
DUE TO HIGH DEWPOINT AIR ADVECTING OVER THE OCEAN AND COOLER LAND
SURFACES NEAR THE OCEAN.
&&
.SHORT TERM /MONDAY/...
THE COLD FRONT WASHES OUT ALONG THE SOUTH COAST MONDAY MORNING...LEAVING
WEAK HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE REGION. LOCAL SEABREEZES ARE EXPECTED TO
DEVELOP ALONG THE COAST. PREFERRED THE NAM WIND FIELDS WHICH SEEM TO
BETTER CAPTURE THIS FEATURE. OTHERWISE EXPECTING A MOSTLY SUNNY AND
WARM DAY. 850 MILLIBAR TEMPERATURES BETWEEN +13 AND +15 CELSIUS WILL
YIELD HIGHS IN THE 80S INLAND...BUT AGAIN COOLER ALONG THE COAST.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
CONFIDENCE REMAINS LOW IN THE EXTENDED FORECAST ONCE AGAIN...MAINLY
WED THROUGH NEXT SUN...AS MODELS CONTINUE TO HAVE DIFFICULT WITH
TIMING AND STRENGTH OF SHORT WAVES MOVING THROUGH EASTERN US TROUGH.
WEAK HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER REGION MON NIGHT INTO EARLY TUE WITH
DRY WEATHER EXPECTED...ALTHOUGH IT WILL REMAIN MUGGY.
12Z NAM HAS SPED UP TIMING OF FRONT FOR MID WEEK...BUT IT CONTINUES
TO BE AN OUTLIER WHEN COMPARED WITH OTHER MODELS...ESPECIALLY GFS
WHICH BRINGS FRONT EARLY WED MORNING. THERE IS UNCERTAINTY AS TO HOW MUCH
IF ANY UPSTREAM CONVECTION WILL SURVIVE TRIP E MON NIGHT...SO WE
ONLY INDICATED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS BY DAYBREAK TUE. IT DOES APPEAR
THAT WE MAY SEE CONVECTION DEVELOP TUE AFTERNOON AND ESPECIALLY TUE
NIGHT AS FRONT APPROACHES...ONCE WE BURN OFF CLOUD DEBRIS AND MORNING
FOG SE ZONES. HEAVY RAIN APPEARS TO BE MAIN THREAT WITH SUCH A MOIST
AIRMASS IN PLACE /PRECIPITABLE WATER APPROACHING 2 INCHES/...BUT WE ALSO
HAVE DECENT JET DYNAMICS IN PLACE WITH LEFT FRONT QUAD AT MID LEVELS
AND RIGHT REAR QUAD AT UPPER LEVELS. COULD BE AN INTERESTING
NOCTURNAL EVENT.
FRONT IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN DRAPED OVER SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND WED INTO
THU. WE MAINTAINED CHANCE POPS FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...THOUGH
PER COLLABORATION WITH WFO OKX WE ARE GOING TO KEEP THU DAYTIME DRY
AS THIS BOUNDARY IS PUSHED OFFSHORE AND WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
INTO NEW ENGLAND.
THAT WILL BE SHORT LIVED HOWEVER...AS NEXT FRONT APPROACHES FROM
SOUTHERN CANADA AS ANOTHER SHORT WAVE COMES AROUND BASE OF EASTERN
TROUGH. THIS SHOULD INDUCE WEAK LOW DEVELOPMENT ALONG FRONT...MEANING
WE WILL HAVE CHANCE POPS FROM THU NIGHT INTO FRI AND AT LEAST EARLY
SAT...BEFORE THIS SYSTEM HEADS OFFSHORE. FOR NOW WE ARE INDICATING
DRY WEATHER FOR NEXT SUN AS HIGH PRESSURE ATTEMPTS TO BUILD E FROM
GREAT LAKES.
OBVIOUSLY IT WILL NOT BE RAINING ALL THE TIME FROM WED INTO THU
MORNING AND AGAIN FROM THU NIGHT INTO SAT...AS ACTIVITY WILL BE
CONVECTIVE IN NATURE.
ONE OTHER ITEM WE WILL NEED TO MONITOR IS POTENTIAL FOR RIP CURRENTS
AND POSSIBLY HIGH SURF ALONG S COASTAL BEACHES BY MID TO LATE WEEK.
SOUTHERLY SWELL IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST AND MAY REACH 5 TO 6 FT FROM
WED INTO NEXT WEEKEND.
&&
.AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
WILL BE KEEPING A CLOSE EYE ON CONVECTION THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING
GIVEN THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH THROUGH 8PM WHICH COVERS ALL
TERMINALS EXCEPT KHYA-KACK.
IFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE WITH SHRA/TSRA THROUGH 00Z ALONG AND JUST
AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT. SOME OF THESE STORMS HAVE POTENTIAL TO BRING
50KT GUSTS AND HAIL. IN ADDITION SW FLOW WILL CONTINUE TO BRING 25KT
GUSTS FROM KBOS TO KPVD THROUGH 23Z THIS EVENING.
TONIGHT...LOW CLOUDS EXPECTED TO REFORM BETWEEN 22Z-02Z KHYA-KACK
WITH IFR CONDITIONS OVERNIGHT THROUGH 12Z MON. GRADUAL IMPROVEMENT
IN CONDITIONS N ZONES AND LOW RISK OF A LEFTOVER SHOWER OR POSSIBLE
TSTM MOVING SE INTO EASTERN TERMINALS LATER TONIGHT. OTRW...IFR/LIFR
CIGS/VSBYS LIKELY REDEVELOPING AT KACK WITH SCT IFR CONDITIONS IN
FOG PATCHES ACROSS THE INTERIOR.
VFR CONDITIONS MON.
OUTLOOK MON NIGHT THROUGH FRI... LOCAL MVFR POSSIBLE ACROSS INTERIOR
VALLEYS DUE TO PATCHY FOG.
SCATTERED SHOWERS/TSTMS EXPECTED TUE NIGHT INTO WED NIGHT WITH MVFR
AND LOCAL IFR. LOW CLOUDS/FOG PROBABLE NEAR S COAST WITH IFR/LIFR.
IMPROVING CONDITIONS THU MORNING AS COLD FRONT HEADS OFFSHORE.
MORE SHOWERS/TSTMS EXPECTED THU NIGHT INTO FRI AS NEXT COLD FRONT DROPS
SE FROM ONTARIO AND WEAK LOW PRESSURE FORMS ALONG IT. MVFR LIKELY
WITH POSSIBLE IFR.
&&
.MARINE...
A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONTINUES FOR NARRAGANSETT BAY...BOSTON HARBOR
AND BUZZARDS BAY THROUGH 23Z DUE TO WIND GUSTS TO 25 KT. SOUTHWEST SWELL
WILL APPROACH 5 FT ACROSS THE OUTER WATERS MON AFTERNOON...BUT FOR
NOW HAVE DECIDED TO HOLD OFF ON A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY.
LONG TERM MON NIGHT THROUGH FRI...NO SIGNIFICANT ISSUES WITH STRONG
WINDS AS PERSISTENT S/SW FLOW DOMINATES. SERIES OF COLD FRONTS WILL
BRING SCATTERED SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS TO WATERS...MAINLY TUE NIGHT
INTO WED NIGHT AND AGAIN THU NIGHT INTO FRI.
WE WILL NEED TO WATCH SEAS ON OUTER WATERS WHERE SOUTHERLY SWELL WILL
DOMINATE. WAVEWATCH GUIDANCE IS MUCH TOO HIGH BUT WE EXPECT 3 TO 4 FT
