AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
727 PM EDT WED OCT 22 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE OVER GEORGES BANK WILL CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY WHILE
STRONG HIGH PRESSURE IN SOUTHEAST CANADA APPROACHES...CAUSING STRONG
GUSTY WINDS ALONG THE COAST. STRONG HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO
NEW ENGLAND THU AND FRI THEN MOVE OFFSHORE SAT. A COLD FRONT WILL
MOVE THROUGH NEW ENGLAND SUNDAY...POSSIBLY ACCOMPANIED BY A WAVE OF
LOW PRESSURE. EVEN AFTER THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH...LOW PRESSURE
DISTURBANCES WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE THROUGH NEW ENGLAND MONDAY AND
TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL MIDNIGHT TONIGHT/...
WITH NANTUCKET STILL SUSTAINED AROUND 25 KNOTS AND GUSTING INTO THE
MID 30S...WINDS ARE TOO CLOSE TO ALLOW THE WIND ADVISORY TO EXPIRE IN
THAT AREA. HOWEVER THE WINDS HAVE COME DOWN ON THE VINEYARD AND
WESTERN AREAS OF CAPE COD. SO WE WILL END THE ADVISORY FOR THE
VINEYARD...BUT EXTEND IT UNTIL 11 PM FOR NANTUCKET AND EASTERN
/OUTER/ CAPE COD. THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST HAS BEEN ADJUSTED TO
CARRY LIKELY POPS ON THE CAPE AND ISLANDS AND SCATERED SHOWERS IN THE
CENTRAL HILLS AS SEEN ON RADAR...THESE SHOULD DIMINISH BY 10 PM.

PREVIOUSLY...
LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS ACROSS EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS WILL MOVE EASTWARD
DIMINISHING TO SPRINKLES AND THEN NOTHING. SHOWERS WILL LIKELY
CONTINUE ACROSS THE CAPE AND ISLANDS THIS EVENING.

WINDS WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH AS THE LOW PRESSURE CENTER SLOWLY
MOVES FURTHER OUT TO SEA.  ON THE CAPE AND ISLANDS...THE WINDS WILL
DIMINISH BUT ONLY TO LEVELS JUST BELOW ADVISORY CRITERIA.  EXPECT
WINDS TO GUST TO AROUND 25KTS THERE THROUGH MUCH OF THE NIGHT.
ELSEWHERE...SUSTAINED WINDS WILL GET DOWN TO AROUND 10KTS.

LOW CLOUDS WILL REMAIN ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND THROUGH THE
EVENING AND TEMPERATURES WILL SLOWLY DROP INTO THE UPPER 30S ACROSS
THE INTERIOR.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MIDNIGHT TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
TONIGHT...THE UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL MOVE UP INTO THE CANADIAN
MARITIMES WHILE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.  LOW
LEVEL WINDS AT 925MB ARE 25 TO 30KTS WHICH WILL KEEP WINDS UP
OVERNIGHT.  CLOUDS WILL GRADUALLY MOVE OUT OVERNIGHT FROM NORTHWEST
TO SOUTHEAST WITH MOST AREAS CLEARING OUT AROUND 2 AM.  DESPITE ALL
THIS...COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL PUSH TEMPERATURES DOWN OVERNIGHT.  IT
LOOKS LIKE TEMPERATURES WILL ONLY DROP BELOW FREEZING WHERE THEY
ALREADY HAVE HAD A GOOD FREEZE SO NO HEADLINES WILL BE ISSUED FOR
TONIGHT.

THURSDAY...HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN AND DESPITE FULL SUN...HIGH
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN ON THE COOL SIDE THOUGH A FEW DEGREES
WARMER THAN TODAY.  OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL DROP BELOW FREEZING ACROSS
ALL OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND EXCEPT THE OUTER CAPE AND NANTUCKET.
SO...HAVE ISSUED A FREEZE WATCH FOR MOST OF PLYMOUTH COUNTY...
SOUTHERN BRISTOL COUNTY...MARTHAS VINEYARD...AND BARNSTABLE COUNTY.
THE ONLY PORTION OF BARNSTABLE COUNTY THAT WILL FREEZE SHOULD BE
FROM HYANNIS WESTWARD.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS IN CONTROL FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT AS IT MOVES
OFFSHORE. THIS SHOULD KEEP SKIES GENERALLY CLEAR FRIDAY WITH
INCREASING HIGH CLOUDS LATER FRIDAY NIGHT. TEMPERATURES AT 900 MB ARE
FORECAST AROUND 7C...FULL SUN MIXING WOULD SUPPORT MAX TEMPS IN THE
LOW TO MID 60S. COOLING EFFECTS OF THE OCEAN...SEA SURFACE TEMPS IN
THE 50S...AND ELEVATION SHOULD HOLD COASTAL AND HIGHLANDS AREAS IN
THE UPPER 50S.

INCREASING HIGH CLOUDS FRIDAY NIGHT ESPECIALLY LATE. ANY CLOUDS EARLY
SHOULD BE THIN...SO WE SHOULD STILL HAVE A PERIOD OF RADIATIONAL
COOLING. WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE MID 20S TO MID 30S...MIN TEMPERATURES
AROUND THE REGION SHOULD BE AROUND FREEZING OR A LITTLE BELOW.

THE MAIN PLAYER IN THE LONG TERM IS LOW PRESSURE CURRENTLY CUTTING
OFF OVER THE PLAINS. THIS LOW WILL SLOWLY DRIFT EAST THROUGH
FRIDAY...THEN EJECT NORTHEAST AS A 160 KNOT JET MOVES INTO WESTERN
NORTH AMERICA AND GIVES THE PATTERN A KICK. THIS WILL BRING RAIN AND
WIND TO OUR AREA SAT NIGHT AND SUNDAY. WEAK LOW PRESSURE AT THE
SURFACE REMAINS OVER THE REGION MON AND TUE...AND ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL
LOW APPROACHES THE REGION ON TUE. THIS SHOULD KEEP A LOT OF CLOUDS
AND SCATTERED SHOWERS OVER THE NORTHEAST DURING THE FIRST HALF OF THE
WEEK. HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDS IN WEDNESDAY BRINGING A DRYING TREND.

THE 12Z RUNS OF BOTH THE ECMWF AND GFS CONTINUE IN GENERAL AGREEMENT
WITH THIS ORDER OF EVENTS WITH SLIGHT DIFFERENCES IN TIMING.

WE HAVE INTRODUCED LIKELY POPS TO THE CT VALLEY BY 00Z...AND THEN
CATEGORICAL POPS FOR ALL ZONES DURING SATURDAY NIGHT. WINDS JUST OFF
THE SURFACE ARE STILL EXPECTED TO INCREASE SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND
NIGHT. THE GFS AND ECMWF BRING A NARROW BAND OF 60 TO 70 KNOT WINDS
AT 925-950 MB...JUST AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT. THIS SHOULD BRING
STRONG WIND GUSTS...ESPECIALLY FOR THE CAPE AND ISLANDS...SATURDAY
NIGHT AND EARLY SUNDAY.

WE CONTINUE TO EXPECT 1.5 INCH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES SATURDAY
NIGHT...WHICH WOULD SUPPORT OCCASIONAL HEAVY SHOWERS. ANY HEAVY
SHOWERS WOULD ALSO AID IN BRINGING STRONG WIND GUSTS TO THE SURFACE.

THE UPPER LOW IS FORECAST TO DIG ANOTHER CUT OFF LOW OVER THE
NORTHEAST EARLY IN THE WEEK. THIS SHOULD KEEP CLOUDS AND A CHANCE OF
SHOWERS WITH US MONDAY-TUESDAY. THE LOW SLOWLY LIFTS NORTH
WEDNESDAY...WITH THE ECMWF SLOWER THAN THE GFS IN THIS REGARD. THE
AMOUNT OF SUN WE SEE ON WEDNESDAY WILL DEPEND ON HOW THIS LOW MOVES
OFF. FOR NOW WE ARE GOING WITH A DRY FORECAST FOR WEDNESDAY...BUT
WITH LOW CONFIDENCE.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
TONIGHT...CIGS A MIX OF VFR NEAR 4000 FEET AND MVFR AROUND 2000 FEET.
SHOWERS FROM ORH EAST WITH ISOLATED HEAVIER SHOWERS BRINGING VSBYS
BRIEFLY TO MVFR. CONDITIONS WILL GRADUALLY IMPROVE TO VFR AS SKIES
CLEAR OVERNIGHT FROM WEST TO EAST. SFC WINDS WILL DIE DOWN OVERNIGHT
EXCEPT FOR FMH/HYA/ACK WHERE SFC WND TO G25 CAN BE EXPECTED.

THURSDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...VFR.

OUTLOOK...FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY

VFR FRIDAY THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON SAT.

CONDITIONS LOWERING TO IFR SAT NIGHT NIGHT AND SUNDAY MORNING. STRONG
LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR IS ALSO POSSIBLE MAINLY FROM BOS-PVD SOUTHEAST
TO THE CAPE AND ISLANDS. 60 TO 70 KNOT SOUTHERLIES ARE EXPECTED JUST
A COUPLE OF THOUSAND FEET OFF THE GROUND.

CEILINGS AND VSBYS IMPROVE FOR MONDAY...BUT SHOULD VARY BETWEEN VFR
AND MVFR AS SHOWERS MOVE THROUGH.

&&

.MARINE...
TONIGHT...WE WILL CONTINUE GALES THROUGH 11 PM BASED ON CONTINUED
GUSTS INTO THE MID 30S OF KNOTS AT NANTUCKET.  WINDS WILL DIMINISH
ACROSS THE INNER ZONES FIRST AND THEN LATE TONIGHT ACROSS THE OUTER
ZONES. ALL GALE WARNINGS SHOULD BE DOWN BY MIDNIGHT WITH SMALL CRAFT
CONDITIONS ACROSS ALL THE ZONES THROUGH THE NIGHT. SEAS WILL
GRADUALLY DIMINISH THROUGH THE EVENING GETTING DOWN TO 6-10FT BY
MORNING.

THURSDAY...SMALL CRAFT CONDITIONS FOR THE OUTER WATERS...CAPE COD
BAY...AND NANTUCKET SOUND THROUGH MUCH OF THE DAY.  SEAS DIMINISH
FURTHER TO 5 TO 8 FEET.

THURSDAY NIGHT...SMALL CRAFT CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE FOR THE OUTER
WATERS WITH SEAS DIMINISHING TO 5 TO 6 FT IN THESE AREAS AND 2 TO 4
FT ELSEWHERE.

OUTLOOK...FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY

ALL QUIET FOR SEAS AND WINDS FRI INTO SAT MORNING. WINDS AND SEAS
SHOULD THEN INCREASE FROM SOUTH TO NORTH DURING SAT AFTERNOON INTO
SUNDAY MORNING. VERY STRONG WINDS...60 TO 70 KNOTS...ARE FORECAST
JUST OFF THE SURFACE. HOW MUCH OF THIS REACHES THE SURFACE IS
QUESTIONABLE. BUT IF EVEN 50 PERCENT COMES DOWN...ESPECIALLY IN
HEAVIER SHOWERS...THEN WE WOULD BE LOOKING AT CONDITIONS AT OR NEAR
GALE FORCE SAT NIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING. FOR NOW WE FAVOR STAYING
CLOSE TO THE WNAWAVE MODEL FORECAST OF SEAS FOR SATURDAY NIGHT AND
SUNDAY...WHICH BRINGS WAVE HEIGHTS OF 10 TO 15 FEET TO THE SOUTHERN
WATERS BEFORE THE COLD FRONT ARRIVES SUNDAY. WIND AND SEAS THEN
DIMINISH SUNDAY AFTERNOON INTO MONDAY...ALTHOUGH SEAS WILL REMAIN
ABOVE 5 FEET ON MOST OF THE WATERS INTO MONDAY.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
AN APPROXIMATE ONE FOOT SURGE CAN BE EXPECTED OVERNIGHT ALONG THE
EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS COAST.  GUIDANCE INDICATES THAT IT WILL OCCUR
SOMETIME BETWEEN THIS EVENINGS HIGH TIDE AND TOMORROW MORNINGS HIGH
TIDE.  ASTRONOMICAL TIDES REMAIN FAIRLY LOW. HOWEVER GIVEN THE
COMBINATION OF STORM SURGE AND 10 TO 15 FOOT SEAS JUST OFFSHORE...
SOME MINOR SPLASHOVER WILL BE POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY ALONG THE EAST
COASTS OF CAPE COD AND NANTUCKET.

&&
