Severe Thunderstorm Warning 60, NWS Boston/Norton, MA

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
424 PM EDT WED JUN 27 2007

.SYNOPSIS...
HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THU...THEN A COLD
FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION THU NIGHT BRINGING DRIER AND
COOLER WEATHER FOR FRI THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.  SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING WILL INCREASE IN COVERAGE THU AFTERNOON
INTO THU EVENING AS THE COLD FRONT APPROACHES.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
***ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING***

THE ATMOSPHERE HAS BECOME VERY UNSTABLE BY SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
STANDARDS THIS AFTERNOON AS SURFACE TEMPERATURES HAVE CLIMBED WELL
UP INTO THE 90S.  LATEST MESO-ANALYSIS GRAPHICS FROM THE STORM
PREDICTION CENTER ARE SHOWING MEAN LAYER CAPE VALUES BETWEEN 2000
AND 2500 J/KG THIS AFTERNOON.

WITH ALL THAT SAID...THE ENVIRONMENT IS FAVORABLE FOR EXPLOSIVE
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
HOWEVER...WE WILL JUST RUN WITH CHANCE POPS SINCE SURFACE
CONVERGENCE IS WEAK AND WE ARE UNCERTAIN ON THE AREAL COVERAGE OF
THE ACTIVITY.

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ACROSS MUCH OF
NEW YORK STATE AND PENNSYLVANIA.  A FEW ISOLATED STORMS WERE POPPING
UP ACROSS OUR REGION AS WELL.  WE EXPECT SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS TO
INCREASE IN AREAL COVERAGE ACROSS INTERIOR SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
THROUGH 6 PM.  ALTHOUGH MID LEVEL WINDS ARE NOT THAT STRONG...THE
ATMOSPHERE IS CONDUCIVE FOR ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP TO
RAPIDLY BECOME SEVERE WITH SUCH INSTABILITY.  THE MAIN THREATS WILL
BE DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WIND GUSTS WITH A HIGH CAPE ENVIRONMENT.
EVEN THOUGH THE MID LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE ARE WARM...ANY STORM
THAT ROTATES IN THIS ENVIRONMENT WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING LARGE
HAIL. IN ADDITION...HIGH PWATS AND INITIALLY SLOW MOVING STORMS
SHOULD RESULT IN A PERIOD OF TORRENTIAL RAINFALL WHICH MAY RESULT IN
LOCALIZED FLOODING.  A SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT WAS ISSUED
HIGHLIGHTING THESE CONCERNS AND WE HAVE ENHANCED WORDING IN THE
ZONES.

THE MID LEVEL FLOW DOES BEGIN TO STRENGTHEN BETWEEN 0 AND 6Z.  EVEN
THOUGH WE ARE RELATIVELY WARM ALOFT...THE AMOUNT OF LOW LEVEL
INSTABILITY SHOULD BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN THE CONVECTION THROUGH MUCH
OF THE EVENING.  THEREFORE...ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS MAY
MAKE THEIR WAY ONTO THE COASTAL PLAIN BETWEEN 7 AND 10 PM.  THERE
STILL WILL BE THE RISK FOR SOME SEVERE WEATHER WITH THESE STORMS.

AS FOR OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPERATURES...HAVE GONE ABOVE GUIDANCE NUMBERS
WITH SOUTHWEST FLOW OUT AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT.  LOWS SHOULD ONLY
FALL INTO THE LOWER TO MID 70S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
***SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ON THURSDAY***

A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL DROP INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND ON
THURSDAY.  WE EXPECT NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP
ALONG THE COLD FRONT AND WILL RUN WITH LIKELY TO CATEGORICAL POPS TO
COVER THIS SITUATION.

INSTABILITY WILL NOT BE QUITE AS HIGH AS TODAY WITH A FAIR AMOUNT OF
CLOUD COVER.  NONETHELESS...WE STILL WILL PROBABLY SEE SOME PERIODS
OF SUNSHINE AS WIND VEER A BIT AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT.
NAM MODEL IS FORECASTING MEAN LAYER CAPES OF BETWEEN 1000 AND 2000
J/KG.  IN ADDITION...MID LEVEL WIND FIELDS ARE NOT BAD WITH 30 TO 40
KNOTS PROGGED BY THE MODELS.  SURFACE CONVERGENCE ALSO LOOKS GOOD IN
THE VICINITY OF A STRONG COLD FRONT.

THEREFORE...WE DO EXPECT NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP ON
THURSDAY FROM THE LATE MORNING INTO THE AFTERNOON AND SOME OF THEM
SHOULD BE BECOME SEVERE.  THE MAIN THREAT WOULD BE DAMAGING STRAIGHT
LINE WIND GUSTS...BUT A FEW REPORTS OF LARGE HAIL ARE ALSO
POSSIBLE.  WE HAVE GONE WITH ENHANCED WORDING IN THE FORECAST.  IN
ADDITION...HIGH PWATS WILL ALLOW FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WITH ANY
OF THE STORMS THAT DEVELOP.

HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE TRICKY ON THURSDAY...DEPENDING ON THE
CLOUD COVER BUT WITH A WARM START FEEL THAT WE SHOULD SEE HIGH
TEMPERATURES BETWEEN UPPER 80S TO NEAR 90.

THE COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY MOVE SOUTH ACROSS THE REGION THURSDAY
NIGHT.  MID LEVEL FLOW BECOMES PARALLEL TO THE FRONT SO RAIN AND
EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS COULD LINGER INTO THE NIGHT PARTICULARLY
ALONG THE SOUTH COAST.  WITH THE CLOUD COVER AND SLOW MOVEMENT OF
THE COLD FRONT WILL GO WITH THE WARMER MAV GUIDANCE AND GO WITH LOWS
MAINLY IN THE LOWER 60S.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
COLD FRONT WILL BE JUST SOUTH OF THE COASTAL WATERS EARLY FRI BUT
NAM/GFS INDICATE BACK EDGE OF DEEPER MOISTURE STILL ALONG THE SOUTH
COAST AT 12Z.  WE WILL MENTION CHC SHOWERS S COAST EARLY
FRI...OTHERWISE EXPECT CLEARING SKIES FROM NORTH TO SOUTH DURING THE
DAY AS RAPID DRYING TAKES PLACE AFTER 12Z.

850 MB TEMPS WILL BE AROUND +10 FRI SO MAX TEMPS SHOULD BEACH 75-80
IN THE INTERIOR.  NORTHERLY GRADIENT WEAKENS BY 18Z WHICH WILL FAVOR
AFTERNOON SEABREEEZES DEVELOPING ON THE EAST AND SOUTH COASTS WHICH
SHOULD KEEP TEMPS MAINLY IN THE LOWER 70S.

CLEAR SKIES EXPECTED FRI NIGHT AS SFC RIDGE BUILDS ACROSS GREAT
LAKES WITH DRY NORTHERLY FLOW.  IT WILL BE A CHILLY NIGHT WITH MINS
MOSTLY IN THE 50S BUT SOME UPPER 40S POSSIBLE ACROSS FAR NW ZONES.

A FAIRLY AMPLIFIED PATTERN FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR WILL BE DEVELOPING
THIS WEEKEND WITH UPPER RIDGE OVER THE PLAINS AND ANOMALOUS UPPER
TROF MOVING OVER THE NE BY SUN WITH -2SD FOR HEIGHT FIELD.  THIS
WILL RESULT IN BELOW NORMAL TEMPS THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK THEN
GRADUAL MODERATION AS PATTERN DEAMPLIFIES WITH UPPER TROF MOVING
EWD.

FAIRLY POTENT SHORTWAVE WILL BE DIVING SE FROM NORTH OF THE LAKES ON
SAT...MOVING ACROSS THE REGION SAT NIGHT.  VERY COLD TEMPS ALOFT FOR
THIS TIME OF YEAR WILL BE MOVING SWD INTO REGION WITH 500 MB TEMPS
COOLING TO -22C AND MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES NEAR 7C/KM ACROSS N ZONES
BY 06Z SUN BEFORE COLD POOL RETEATS NORTHWARD.  MOSUNNY SKIES
EXPECTED FOR MUCH OF THE REGION DURING SAT...BUT EXPECT CU TO
INCREASE FAR N ZONES LATE IN THE DAY AND WE INDICATED SLIGHT CHC
POPS IN THE GRIDS LATE SAT NORTH OF THE PIKE.  850 MB TEMPS WILL BE
AROUND +9 SAT SO TEMPS SHOULD REACH MID TO UPPER 70S WITH NW FLOW IN
PLACE.

WE EXPANDED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS TO THE COAST SAT NIGHT AS SHORTWAVE
AND COLD POOL ALOFT MOVE INTO REGION.  MIN TEMPS SAT NIGHT WILL BE
IN THE 50S AGAIN...WITH SOME UPPER 40S FAR NW ZONES.

IT LOOKS DRY SUN AND MON THEN THERE IS SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH TIMING
OF NEXT SHORTWAVE AND WAA SHOWERS MOVING INTO REGION TOWARD THE
MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. GFS BRINGS SHOWERS INTO REGION BY TUE BUT ECMWF
DELAYS PRECIP UNTIL WED.  WE TOOK A BLEND OF GFS/ECMWF WITH A DRY
FORECAST TUE...THEN CHC POPS TUE NIGHT AND WED.

COOLEST DAY WILL BE SUN WITH 850 MB TEMPS DOWN TO +6.  MAXES WILL
LIKELY BE 70-75 ACROSS MUCH OF SNE WITH UPPER 60S POSSIBLE OVER NW
HIGHER TERRAIN.  COOL TEMPS MAY CONTINUE ON MON...THEN WE SHOULD GET
BACK TO SEASONABLE NORMS BY TUE/WED AS 850 MB TEMPS GRADUALLY
MODERATE.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
MVFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH TONIGHT IN GENERAL HAZE.
CONDITIONS WILL LOWER TO IFR ACROSS THE CAPE AND PERHAPS SOME VALLEY
LOCATIONS IN FOG PATCHES LATER TONIGHT.  SCATTERED CONVECTION MAY
ALSO TEMPORARILY REDUCE CEILINGS AND VSBYS TO IFR CONDITIONS.

MAINLY MVFR CONDITIONS IN HAZE AND SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ON THURSDAY
INTO THURSDAY EVENING.  TEMPORARY IFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE WHERE THE
THUNDERSTORMS PASS OVER.

OUTLOOK FRI THROUGH MON...MAINLY VFR BUT AREAS OF MVFR POSSIBLE
EARLY FRI ALONG THE SOUTH COAST.

&&

.MARINE...
ISSUED A SCA ADVISORY THIS EVENING FOR NEAR SHORE LOCATIONS AS
EXCELLENT MIXING OVER LAND WILL RESULT IN 25 KNOT WIND GUSTS.  WNA
MODEL IS WAY OVERDONE WITH THE SEAS AS VERY WARM AIRMASS IS CREATING
A STRONG INVERSION OVER THE WATERS.  HAVE UNDERCUT IT BY SEVERAL
FEET...BUT SHOULD SEE SEAS FINALLY COME UP TO AROUND 5 FEET LATE
TONIGHT ACROSS OUR SOUTHERN WATERS.

MAY NEED TO CONTINUE SCA FOR SOUTHERN OUTER-WATERS ON THURSDAY...BUT
WILL LEAVE THAT TO THE NEXT SHIFT.  WILL ALSO PROBABLY SEE ANOTHER
ROUND OF 20 TO 25 KNOT WIND GUSTS NEAR SHORE.

LONG TERM...MAINLY QUIET ON THE WATERS WITH WINDS GENERALLY 15 KTS
OR LESS THROUGH THE PERIOD AND SEAS SUBSIDING BELOW 4 FT.
