AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1226 PM EST FRI NOV 21 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
DRY AND UNSEASONABLY COLD WEATHER WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THIS
WEEKEND.  A STORM SYSTEM WILL AFFECT SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND MON NIGHT
INTO TUE.  THE ATMOSPHERE LOOKS TO WARM UP ENOUGH BY THEN TO BRING
MAINLY RAIN TO THE AREA...BUT SOME SNOW MAY OCCUR OVER THE HIGHER
ELEVATIONS.  DRIER WEATHER ALONG WITH A RETURN TO COLDER THAN NORMAL
TEMPERATURES WILL ARRIVE WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES PREVAILED LATE THIS MORNING. INFRARED SATELLITE
PICTURES INDICATED A BAROCLINIC LEAF FORMING JUST OFF THE DELMARVA
COAST COINCIDING WITH DEVELOPING LOW PRESSURE OFF THE NORTH CAROLINA
COAST. ALSO NOTING SOME OCEAN EFFECT STRATOCUMULUS CLOUDS ACROSS
THE EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS WATERS. SO OVERALL EXPECT INCREASING
CLOUDS ACROSS THE CAPE AND ISLANDS WITH MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES
ELSEWHERE...EXCEPT PARTLY SUNNY OVER THE INTERIOR HIGH TERRAIN.

INCREASED TEMPERATURES JUST A COUPLE OF DEGREES BASED ON LATEST
TRENDS AND SOUNDING DATA.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SATURDAY/...
LOW PRESSURE
STRENGTHENS RAPIDLY AS IT ROCKETS TOWARD NOVA SCOTIA TONIGHT. THIS
WILL HELP DRAW BITTER COLD AIR /FOR NOV STANDARDS/ SOUTHWARD INTO
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND ON GUSTY WINDS. WIND CHILL VALUES BY LATE
TONIGHT WILL PROBABLY REACH THE LOWER TEENS TO SINGLE DIGITS AT MOST
LOCATIONS. LOOKS DRY...BUT CAN/T RULE OUT A FEW FLURRIES IN THE
CYCLONIC FLOW.

500-505DM THICKNESSES IN THE 1000-500MB LAYER WITH 850MB TEMPS AROUND
-16C ARE ON TAP FOR SATURDAY...WHICH IS DOWNRIGHT COLD AND VERY
JANUARY-LIKE. IT/S ACTUALLY TOUGH TO GET THE THICKNESSES THAT LOW
DOWN HERE EVEN IN JANUARY. THIS WILL RESULT IN MAXES NEARLY 20
DEGREES BELOW NORMAL IN SPOTS. UNDERCUT MOS GUIDANCE A BIT WHICH
RESULTS IN HIGHS IN THE UPPER 20S TO LOWER 30S. WE/LL ADD STRONG
WINDS ON TOP OF THAT /20-25 MPH WITH GUSTS 30 TO 35 MPH/. THIS WILL
RESULT IN DAYTIME WIND CHILL VALUES IN THE TEENS. IT LOOKS AS THOUGH
WINDS WILL FALL SHORT OF ADVISORY CRITERIA...BUT WE/LL HAVE TO KEEP
AN EYE ON THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS AS WELL AS THE CAPE AND ISLANDS.
SKIES WILL BE VARIABLY CLOUDY...WITH A FEW FLURRIES POSSIBLE.

ALTHOUGH WIND DIRECTION DOESN/T APPEAR OPTIMAL...SOME OCEAN EFFECT
SNOW SHOWERS MAY GRAZE CAPE COD.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
BLUSTERY AND VERY COLD CONDITIONS EXPECTED SAT NIGHT AS STRONG NW
GRADIENT REMAINS IN PLACE.  WINDS MAY GUST TO 30-35 MPH SAT EVENING
BEFORE SLOWLY DIMINISHING.  WITH NW FLOW...OCEAN EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS
SHOULD REMAIN LARGELY OFFSHORE BUT MAY CLIP OUTER CAPE SAT EVENING
SO WE WILL CARRY LOW CHC POPS HERE.  OTHERWISE...EVENING CLOUDS
SHOULD GIVE WAY TO CLEARING SKIES.  MINS WILL BE IN THE TEENS TO
LOWER 20S BUT GUSTY NW WINDS WILL MAKE IT FEEL IN THE SINGLE NUMBERS
AND LOWER TEENS.

SFC HIGH MOVES TO THE SOUTH ON SUNDAY WHICH KEEPS MODEST WESTERLY
GRADIENT OVER SNE.  AIRMASS STILL QUITE COLD SUN MORNING WITH 850
TEMPS -14 TO -15C WHICH WILL RECOVER TO -10C LATE SUN.  TEMPS WILL
REMAIN SEVERAL DEGREES BELOW NORMAL WITH MAXES RANGING FROM LOWER
30S HIGHER TERRAIN TO UPPER 30S COASTAL PLAIN.  DEVELOPING WAA
PATTERN WILL RESULT IN INCREASING MID/HIGH CLOUDS DURING SUN
AFTERNOON FROM WEST TO EAST.

MOSTLY CLOUDY AND NOT AS COLD SUN NIGHT AS SW FLOW DEVELOPS WELL
AHEAD OF NEXT SYSTEM MOVING INTO THE GT LAKES.

MODEL SUITE IN AGREEMENT WITH STRONG MID LEVEL LOW DIVING INTO THE
GT LAKES MON THEN REACHING NEW ENG VCNTY TUE.  PRIMARY LOW WILL MOVE
INTO THE LAKES REGION MON BUT STRONG HEIGHT FALL CENTER MOVING OVER
EXISTING BAROCLININC ZONE ALONG THE COAST WILL LIKELY RESULT IN
DEVELOPMENT OF COASTAL LOW NEAR NE COAST MON NIGHT MOVING INTO NEW
ENG ON TUE.

WEAK ISENTROPIC LIFT AHEAD OF PRIMARY LOW MAY BRING A FEW SHOWERS TO
W ZONES LATE MON...BUT THINK BULK OF PRECIP WILL HOLD OFF TIL MON
NIGHT.  TEMPS MON SHOULD MODERATE INTO THE 40S.

BEST CHANCE OF PRECIP WILL BE MON NIGHT INTO EARLY TUE AND WE WILL
HAVE LIKELY POPS.  BASED ON WARMING LOW LEVEL THICKNESSES AND WET
BULB TEMPS...PTYPE SHOULD BE MAINLY RAIN BUT SOME SNOW POSSIBLE
HIGHER ELEVATIONS IN BERKSHIRES AND MONADNOCKS CLOSER TO DEEPER COLD
AIR.  SOUTHERLY LLJ AHEAD OF LOW MAY FOCUS HEAVIER PRECIP LATE MON
NIGHT ACROSS EASTERN NEW ENG OR JUST OFFSHORE WITH LIGHTER PRECIP
FURTHER WEST.  ANY SNOW ACCUM SHOULD BE LIGHT UNLESS COASTAL STORM
ENDS UP FURTHER EAST.  LATEST GUIDANCE SUGGESTS INLAND LOW TRACK.

SFC LOW EXPECTED TO LIFT TO THE NORTH ON TUE WITH FOCUS FOR PRECIP
ALSO SHIFTING NORTH.  BUT UPPER LOW OVER NEW NEG WILL RESULT IN SCT
RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS TUE AFTERNOON WITH ANY SNOW MAINLY CONFINED TO
HIGHER ELEVATIONS.  TEMPS MAY BRIEFLY SURGE TO 50 DEGREES IN THE
COASTAL PLAIN TUE MORNING BEFORE COOLING...OTHERWISE MAXES WILL BE
IN THE UPER 30S TO LOWER 40S IN THE INTERIOR.

UPPER TROF FORECAST TO REMAIN ACROSS THE NE WED/THU ALTHOUGH GFS
KEEPS UPPER LOW MUCH FURTHER SOUTH ACROSS NEW ENG WHICH WILL RESULT
IN A GREATER PROB OF DIURNAL RA/SNW SHOWERS.  ECMWF FURTHER NORTH
AND DRIER.  FOR NOW...WE HAVE SLIGHT CHC POPS IN THE GRIDS BUT NO
MENTION OF POPS IN THE FORECAST TEXT.  TEMPS COOLING TO BELOW NORMAL
WED/THU.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED...ALTHOUGH A PERIOD
OF MVFR CONDS POSSIBLE CAPE AND ISLANDS TONIGHT.

SATURDAY...VFR FOR MOST ALONG WITH NWLY WIND GUSTS AROUND 30 KT.
MVFR CIGS/VSBYS POSSIBLE ON CAPE COD IN OCEAN EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS
