AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
407 PM EDT SAT JUL 28 2007

.SYNOPSIS...
BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO PUMP HUMID AIR INTO OUR
REGION SUNDAY AND MONDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. THEREAFTER...DRIER WEATHER IS EXPECTED ALONG WITH
SEASONABLY WARM TEMPERATURES. THE NEXT CHANCE OF WIDESPREAD SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE FRIDAY AND OR SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
*** SEVERE TSTM WATCH IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM ***

AT 330 PM LINE OF TSTMS FROM BVY-BOS-ORH-IJD WILL REMAIN ORGANIZED
AND EXPECTED TO ENTER RI AND SOUTHEAST MA THROUGH 5 PM. LATEST
MESO-ANALYSIS INDICATES DEEP MOISTURE CONVERGENCE MAXIMIZED FROM
EASTERN CT EXTENDING NORTHEAST TO CAPE ANN AT 3 PM. IN
ADDITION...AXIS OF 2000 J/KG OF SB CAPE OVER THE SAME AREA.
THUS...STORMS WILL ADVANCE SOUTHEAST INTO PROVIDENCE-TAUNTON-
MARSHFIELD AREA EARLY THIS EVENING.  ALTHOUGH...SEVERE THREAT MAY BE
LOWER ACROSS THIS AREA...AS GREATEST WIND SHEAR ASSOCIATED WITH MID
LEVEL VORTEX LOCATED WELL TO THE NORTH ACROSS NORTHERN MA AND NH.
HOWEVER...SB CAPE OF 2000 J/KG MAY YIELD ONE OR TWO STRONG STORMS
ACROSS RI AND SE MA THIS EVENING. MAIN THREAT WITH STORMS THIS
EVENING WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS...VERY HEAVY RAIN WITH LOCALIZED
FLOODING AND LARGE HAIL.

IN ADDITION...WE ARE WATCHING A FAIRLY LARGE SCALE STATIONARY
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY JUST SOUTH OF THE MASS PIKE ACROSS SOUTHERN ORH
COUNTY EASTWARD TO NORWOOD...BLUE HILLS INTO NORTHERN PLYMOUTH
COUNTY. STRONG STORMS EXITING ORH COUNTY AND WINDHAM COUNTY AT 330
PM WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED AS THEY MOVE OVER THIS LOW LEVEL
BOUNDARY...WHICH MAY PROVIDE LOW LEVEL ROTATION.

OTHERWISE...CONVECTION WILL DIMINISH AROUND OR SHORTLY AFTER SUNSET
WITH LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING AND LACK OF SHEAR TO KEEP STORMS
FIRING.

ALSO...WE WILL CANCEL FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR HARTFORD AND HAMPDEN
COUNTIES...AS NOT MUCH CONVECTION UPSTREAM FROM THIS LOCATION. BULK
OF HEAVY RAIN TODAY FELL JUST TO THE SOUTH ACROSS NEW HAVEN AND
FAIRFIELD COUNTIES.

A WARM AND MUGGY NIGHT WITH TEMPS ONLY FALLING INTO THE 60S AND
LIKELY NOT BELOW 70 IN BOSTON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM SUNDAY/...
MID LEVEL VORTEX HAS BECOMES AN OPEN WAVE AND LIFTS INTO ME AND NEW
BRUNSWICK AS IT DISSIPATES SUNDAY MORNING.

HOWEVER...SURFACE FRONT STALLS ACROSS THE INTERIOR...WHICH WILL
LIKELY BECOME THE FOCUS FOR AFTERNOON CONVECTION. NAM AND GFS IN GOOD
AGREEMENT ON THIS FEATURE. HOWEVER...MODELS DIFFER ON AXIS OF
INSTABILITY...WITH NAM ACROSS NORTHERN MA AND SOUTHERN NH WHILE GFS
IS FARTHER SE OVER EASTERN MA AND RI. CLOSE INSPECTION OF GFS SEEMS
TO HAVE A SFC TD BULLSEYE IN NE RI WHICH CAUSES THE AXIS OF
INSTABILITY TO BE FARTHER SE THAN THE NAM.

AS FOR NOW WE WILL LEAN TOWARD THE NAM WITH GREATEST INSTABILITY AND
CONVERGENCE CLOSER TO THE STALLED BOUNDARY OVER NW CT/NORTHERN MA
AND SRN NH. THIS MATCHES UP WELL WITH LATEST HPC QPF. GIVEN THE LACK
OF CHANGE IN AIRMASS...ANY SHOWER OR TSTM WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL
FOR HEAVY DOWNPOURS.

DESPITE A WEAK SHORT WAVE MOVING SE INTO NY AND PA SUNDAY
AFTERNOON...SLIGHT HEIGHT RISES OCCUR OVER NEW ENGLAND IN RESPONSE
TODAY/S MID LEVEL VORTEX EXITING THE AREA. THIS YIELDS WARMING TEMPS
ALOFT ALONG WITH DECREASING WIND SHEAR. THEREFORE...CONVECTION
SHOULD BE LESS ROBUST SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND LESS IN AREAL CONVERGE
THAN TODAY.

ANOTHER WARM AND MUGGY DAY WITH HIGHS INLAND CLIMBING INTO THE MID
80S ALONG WITH DEW PTS AROUND 70

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
ANOTHER SHORT WAVE KEEPS UPPER TROFFINESS ANCHORED ACROSS NORTHEAST.
WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY ALSO STALLS ACROSS NEW ENGLAND SUN THROUGH
PERHAPS MON NIGHT/TUE TIME FRAME...BEFORE STARTING TO SLIDE EAST.
THUS LOOKS LIKE SOME LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE OF HI PW AIR IN AT LEAST
MODERATELY UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT THROUGH THIS PERIOD.  HAVE TAPERED
POPS BACK A BIT FOR SUNDAY SINCE FORCING A LITTLE WEAK AS REGION IN
BETWEEN SHORT WAVES. MAY SEE CONTINUED THREAT FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN
SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY OR MONDAY NIGHT.

HAVE STAYED CLOSE TO MAV VALUES FOR TEMPERATURES.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
MVFR CONDITIONS IN SCATTERED TSTMS THIS EVENING. THEN IFR CONDITIONS
REDEVELOP LATER TONIGHT IN SULTRY AIRMASS. LOW CLOUDS AND FOG SHOULD
LIFT INTO A MARGINAL MVFR-VFR CEILINGS SUNDAY AFTERNOON.  LOCAL IFR
CEILINGS AND VSBY PSBL SUNDAY AFTERNOON WITH SCATTERED TSTMS.

IN THE LONGER TERM...A HUMID AIR MASS WILL AID DEVELOPMENT OF
NIGHTTIME LOW CLOUDS AND FOG THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. IN
ADDITION...THERE SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY TO WARRANT A RISK
OF THUNDERSTORMS SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
S-SE WINDS OF 10 KT OR LESS TONIGHT AND SUNDAY ALONG WITH SEAS 2 FT
OR LESS. MAIN HAZARD WILL BE STRONG STORMS EARLY THIS EVENING ACROSS
EASTERN MA WATERS FROM CAPE ANN SOUTH TO CAPE COD BAY. LATER TONIGHT
AND SUNDAY MORNING...LOCALLY DENSE FOG MAY LOWER VSBY TO 1 NM OR
LESS.

LOOKS FAIRLY QUIET IN THE SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT PERIOD...WITH
THE MAIN CONCERN BEING AREAS OF DENSE FOG.
