AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
423 PM EDT MON OCT 20 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG OCEAN STORM APPROXIMATELY 300 MILES SE OF NANTUCKET WILL
CONTINUE MOVING NORTHEAST...PASSING WELL EAST OF GEORGES BANK THIS
EVENING. LOW PRES WILL DEVELOP OVER SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND TUE
AFTERNOON AND MOVE E OF CAPE COD WED...PERHAPS BRINGING WET SNOW
SHOWERS TO HIGHER ELEVATIONS AND A PERIOD OF GALE FORCE WIND SWEPT
RAIN ALONG THE COAST. STRONG HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO NEW
ENGLAND THU AND FRI THEN MOVE OFFSHORE SAT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
LAST OF CLOUD STREETS SLOWLY EXITING CAPE COD THIS AFTERNOON...AS
OCEAN STORM BEGINS TO PULL AWAY FROM REGION. EXPECT SKIES TO CLEAR BY
EARLY EVENING...WHILE PATCHY HIGH CLOUDS BEGIN TO PUSH INTO FAR
INTERIOR ZONES.

N WINDS STILL GUSTING AROUND CAPE COD AND ISLANDS...BUT WINDS WILL
DIMINISH RATHER QUICKLY LATE THIS AFTERNOON PER MODEL SOUNDINGS.

DESPITE PRESENCE OF ADDITIONAL MID AND HIGH CLOUDS LATER TONIGHT IN
ADVANCE OF NEXT SHORT WAVE...LIGHT WINDS WILL ALLOW FOR GOOD
RADIATIONAL COOLING CONDITIONS THIS EVENING. 12Z GMOS IS RUNNING MUCH
COLDER THAN GOING FORECAST AND SINCE THERE IS SOME QUESTION AS TO HOW
FAST THESE ADDITIONAL CLOUDS WILL ARRIVE...WE WILL ONLY NUDGE MINS
DOWNWARD WITH A BLEND OF BOTH.

A REVIEW OF THIS MORNING/S LOWS INDICATES GROWING SEASON HAS COME TO
AN END OVER MUCH OF REGION...ASIDE FROM IMMEDIATE COAST FROM BOSTON
TO CAPE COD AND NEWPORT. THESE LOCATIONS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO SEE
FROST TONIGHT AND THEREFORE WE WILL NOT POST ANY FROST/FREEZE
HEADLINES AT THIS TIME.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
DIGGING UPPER TROUGH TUE IS EXPECTED TO CLOSE OFF OVER SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND TUE NIGHT. MODELS IN GENERAL AGREEMENT ON TIMING OF SHOWERS
INTO REGION TUE AFTERNOON...WITH GREATER CHANCES ACROSS WESTERN AND
NORTHERN ZONES WHERE DYNAMICS AND DEEPER MOISTURE ARE COLLOCATED.
FARTHER S AND E...IT WILL TAKE SOME TIME TO SATURATE LOWER LEVELS PER
MODEL CROSS SECTIONS...SO FOR THESE LOCATIONS WE HELD OFF ON HIGHER
POPS UNTIL TUE NIGHT.

GMOS LOOKS REASONABLE TUE. SUNSHINE AT START TUE SHOULD KEEP MILDER
READINGS TO RI AND SE MA...WHILE THICKER CLOUD COVER IN PLACE MEANS
TEMPERATURES WILL STAY IN 50S.

PTYPE STILL MAY BE AN ISSUE TUE NIGHT ACROSS HIGHER ELEVATIONS.
ALTHOUGH MODEL SOUNDINGS AND CROSS SECTIONS /ESPECIALLY 12Z NAM/
LOOK TOO WARM TO SUPPORT SNOW...OVERALL SYNOPTIC PATTERN TELLS US
THAT SOMEWHAT COOLER 12Z GFS/09Z SREFS MAY BE MORE CORRECT. WE STILL
DO NOT THINK THIS WILL BE MORE THAN 0.5 INCH OVER HIGHER TERRAIN...
BUT THIS COULD GIVE FIRST SNOWFLAKES OF SEASON TO ELEVATIONS ROUGHLY
AOA 750 FT. WAS A BIT MORE GENEROUS IN GRIDS WITH RAIN/SNOW MIX IN
MANY AREAS TUE NIGHT...THOUGH CERTAINLY MONADNOCKS AND HILLS OF
NORTHERN ORH COUNTY STAND BEST CHANCE.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE OFFSHORE THROUGH THE DAY
WEDNESDAY.  THIS MAY RESULT IN A FEW WET SNOW SHOWERS IN THE HIGHER
ELEVATIONS EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING.  AFTER MID-MORNING...TEMPS WILL
WARM SUFFICIENTLY FOR ANY SNOW SHOWERS TO CHANGE OVER TO RAIN.
ACROSS THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND...RAIN SHOWERS WILL BE
LIKELY DURING THE DAY...GENERALLY TAPERING OFF FROM WEST TO EAST
OVERNIGHT.  STRONG 925 MB WINDS WILL MIX DOWN TO THE SURFACE THROUGH
EARLY AFTERNOON...RESULTING IN 25 TO 35 MPH WINDS ALONG THE COAST.
A WIND ADVISORY MAY BE NECESSARY ESPECIALLY ALONG THE CAPE AND
ISLANDS...THE NORTH SHORE AND COASTAL ESSEX COUNTY.  WILL LEAVE THIS
TO TONIGHTS SHIFT TO DETERMINE SINCE WE ARE LOOKING AT 4TH PERIOD.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE WELL BELOW NORMAL WITH HIGHS RANGING FROM THE
MID 40S IN NORTHWESTERN MASS AND SOUTHWESTERN NEW HAMPSHIRE TO
AROUND 50 ALONG THE COAST.

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...THE UPPER LOW MOVES UP INTO THE CANADIAN
MARITIMES AND HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN.  TEMPERATURES WARM BACK UP TO
NEAR NORMAL.

FOR THE WEEKEND...THE FORECAST IS A BIT SHAKY WITH THE MODELS
INDICATING TWO DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS.  AT SOME POINT THIS WEEKEND OR
EARLY NEXT WEEK A COASTAL STORM WILL MOVE UP FROM THE CAROLINAS AND
EITHER MOVE THROUGH OR EAST OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.  IT IS A MATTER
OF WHEN.  THE GFS IS THE SLOWER OF THE TWO SOLUTIONS WITH THIS NOT
OCCURRING UNTIL TUESDAY NIGHT AND THE ECMWF IS SPEEDIER WITH IT
MOVING UP MONDAY.  THE TIMING OF THIS SYSTEM WILL AFFECT EVERYTHING
FROM TEMPERATURES AND WINDS TO PRECIPITATION AND SKY COVER SO WITH
THE UNCERTAINTY IN TIMING THERE IS UNCERTAINTY IN THE WEEKEND
FORECAST.  AT THIS POINT THOUGH...IT LOOKS LIKE SATURDAY WILL BE THE
PICK DAY OF THE WEEKEND WITH MILD TEMPERATURES AND SUNNY SKIES.

&&

.AVIATION /21Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THROUGH TONIGHT...LEFTOVER MVFR CEILINGS KFMH/KHYA/KACK EXPECTED TO
LIFT BY 20Z...WHILE GUSTY N WINDS /UP TO 30KT/ SUBSIDE LATER THIS
AFTERNOON. OTHERWISE CLEAR SKIES WILL GIVE WAY TO INCREASING HIGH
CLOUDS TONIGHT. N/NW WINDS BECOME LIGHT AND VARIABLE INLAND AND W
UNDER 10KT ALONG COAST.

FOR KBOS TERMINAL...N WIND 10KT BACKS TO NNW TOWARD EVENING AND W
OVERNIGHT UNDER 10KT. S WIND AOB 10KT TUE.

TUE...CEILINGS AOA 10KFT LOWER TO 5KFT DURING AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY
KBAF/KBDL/KORH/KMHT. SCATTERED AFTERNOON SHOWERS MAY BRING MVFR TO
THESE TERMINALS.

OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY

WEDNESDAY MORNING...MVFR CONDITIONS IN RAIN SHOWERS. IFR CONDITIONS IN
HEAVIER SHOWERS AND WHERE POSSIBLY MIXING WITH WET SNOW IN THE
HIGHER TERRAIN EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING.  THERE WILL ALSO BE A PERIOD
OF NORTH WINDS 30G40 KT AT BOS/HYA/FMH/ACK. G45 KTS POSSIBLE AT KACK
AROUND NOON WED.

WED AFTERNOON/EVENING...MVFR CIGS. NORTH WINDS 30G40 KT AT
HYA/FMH/ACK.  BOS N G30 KT.

LATE WED NIGHT THROUGH SAT...VFR LIKELY WITH A POSSIBLE EXCEPTION
FMH/HYA/ACK SATURDAY AS LOW CLOUDS MOVE IN...MVFR CONDITIONS
POSSIBLE IN THESE LOCATIONS.

&&

.MARINE...
MAINTAINING GALES/SCA INTO THIS EVENING AS WINDS GRADUALLY SUBSIDE.
SEAS REMAIN ROUGH INTO TUE SO SCA WAS EXTENDED FOR E MA WATERS AND
WILL BE NEEDED FOR REST OF OPEN WATERS ONCE GALES EXPIRE.

LIGHT WINDS TUE BECOME SW WITH 20KT GUSTS LIKELY IN AFTERNOON ALONG S
COAST AHEAD OF COLD FRONT.

W/SW WINDS PERSIST TUE NIGHT AS FRONT MOVES THROUGH...THEN WIND SHIFT
TO N WITH RAPID INCREASE IN WINDS EXPECTED DAYBREAK WED NEAR
MERRIMACK RIVER AS LOW PRESSURE STRENGTHENS OFF COAST. GALE FORCE
WINDS POSSIBLE THERE PRIOR TO DAYBREAK WED BUT CONFIDENCE NOT HIGH
ENOUGH FOR GALE WATCH JUST YET.

OUTLOOK...WED THROUGH SAT

MARINERS SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR A RELATIVELY FAST ONSLAUGHT OF GALE
FORCE NORTHERLY WINDS BEGINNING AROUND DAYBREAK WED AND SPREADING
SOUTHWARD ALONG THE COAST IN THE MORNING. STRONG GALE FORCE GUSTS ARE
LIKELY THROUGHOUT THE DAY AND MUCH OF WED NIGHT. THERE IS A LOW
PROBABILITY OF SEEING A STORM FORCE WIND GUST TO 48 KNOTS OVER THE
FAR OUTER WATERS TO THE EAST OF NANTUCKET. SEAS ARE FORECAST TO
INCREASE TO 10 TO 15 FEET OVER THE COASTAL WATERS TO THE EAST OF
MASSACHUSETTS. ASTRONOMICAL TIDES WILL BE COMING DOWN FROM THEIR
MAXIMUM THIS WEEKEND BUT THE WAVE ACTION CAUSED BY THESE STRONG WINDS
MAY BE ENOUGH TO CREATE ADDITIONAL SPLASH OVER AND BEACH EROSION.

WINDS WILL DIMINISH THU AND SEAS WILL RETURN TO NEAR NORMAL LEVELS BY
FRI/SAT.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
STILL EXPECTING AROUND 1 FT SURGE WITH HIGH TIDE ALONG E MA COAST
THIS AFTERNOON /GENERALLY 4 TO 430 PM/. SINCE WINDS ARE FROM N AND
HAVE DIMINISHED...POTENTIAL FOR MINOR COASTAL FLOODING IS LOW.
HOWEVER WAVE ACTION FROM ROUGH SEAS OFFSHORE MAY RESULT IN MINOR
SPLASHOVER...ESPECIALLY ON CAPE COD AND NANTUCKET WHERE SEAS ARE
HIGHEST.

THERE IS AN ADDITIONAL POSSIBILITY OF SPLASH OVER...BEACH EROSION...ON
PORTIONS OF THE MASSACHUSETTS EAST COAST ON WED. GALE FORCE NORTHERLY
WINDS WILL CAUSE SEAS TO BUILD TO 10 TO 15 FEET WEDNESDAY.
