AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1133 AM EDT FRI APR 11 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRES IN THE MIDWEST APPROACHES NEW ENGLAND EARLY SAT AND REDEVELOPS
ALONG THE NEW ENGLAND COAST LATE SAT. OVERALL...COOLER THAN NORMAL
TEMPERATURES ARE ANTICIPATED...ESPECIALLY SUNDAY INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK...WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS OF RAIN AND SNOW POSSIBLE.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 7 PM THIS EVENING/...
THE INTERIM 2ND UPDATED /11AMISH/ FCST PRODUCTS WERE SENT AND GRIBBED
INCLUSIVE OF MAKING THUNDER MORE WIDESPREAD IN THE FCST LATE TONIGHT.

AS YOU CAN SEE...INITIALLY...THE 12Z NAM IS NOT ACKNOWLEDGING MEASURABLE
QPF AND BECAUSE OF THIS...ITS 2M TEMPS ARE FAR IN ERROR AT 15Z. ALL
OF W MASS AND NOW PARTS OF SW NH HAVE MEASURED WITH .04 AT ORE AND
MORE COMING DURING MIDDAY.

THIS NAM RUN LOOKS WOEFULLY UNDERDONE TONIGHT AND NOT EXPECTING TO
USE MUCH OF THIS GUIDANCE FOR THE SHORT TERM FCST. INSTEAD... IT
LOOKS LIKE WELL HAVE TO TRIM TEMPS IN ANOTHER UPDATE ARD 1150 AM BUT
WANT TO CK SOME GFS GUIDANCE FIRST.

MAIN MECHANISMS FOR LIFT WILL INCLUDE AN APPROACHING 25-30 KT
SOUTHWESTERLY LOW LEVEL JET WHICH WILL TRANSPORT HIGHER PRECIPITABLE
WATER AIR. IN ADDITION A SOUTHWESTERLY MID LEVEL JET AT 700 MILLIBARS
WILL APPROACH FROM NEW YORK STATE. THE 00Z GFS MID LEVEL JET OF 70KT
WAS DISCOUNTED AS IT APPEARED TO SUFFER FROM SOME GRIDDED CONVECTIVE
FEEDBACK ISSUES. ALSO A WEAK SHORT WAVE WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST.
CONCENTRATED CATEGORICAL TO LIKELY POPS ACROSS NORTHWESTERN AND
CENTRAL ZONES WHERE GOOD MID LEVEL MOISTURE CONVERGENCE WILL BE
PRESENT WITH CHANCE POPS SOUTHEASTERN ZONES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /7 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SATURDAY/...
TONIGHT...THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED. 12Z NGM BEST LI /ELEVATED
CONVECTION/ DOWN TO -5 OR LOWER BY 12Z SATURDAY. ALREADY ADDED MORE
THUNDER TO THE FCST GRIDS. NGM TT INCREASE TO 55+ ON THE NGM AND
WHILE NGM VALUES ARE OVERDONE...THE SIGNAL IS THERE...A BURST OF
HEAVY SHOWERS AND SCT TSTMS 06Z-12Z.

00Z AND 06Z GFS/ECMWF SOLUTIONS WERE BULLISH ON THUNDER.

ADDITIONALLY...THERE MAY BE ENOUGH ROTATION IN CONVECTION TO SEE
ISOLATED SMALL HAILER IN CT. WILL REEVALUATE WITH 12Z GUIDANCE. MUCH
COVERAGE OF SUBZERO SWI TOGETHER WITH LLJ BUST IS THE MECHANISM.

THE POINT HERE...QPF MAY BE UNDER PLAYED IN THE MODELS. EC IS THE MODEL
WITH BIGGEST QPF NOW AND FOR NOW...CANNOT BE DISCOUNTED. WARM SECTOR
DEWPOINTS THIS MORNING ARE IN THE 50S...NOT TOO BAD FOR AN INSTABILITY
BURST INTO SNE TONIGHT. 12Z NAM DISCOUNTED ON ITS QPF. PW RISES TO 1.3
INCHES TONIGHT AND HOURLY AMTS IN CONVECTION COULD EASILY BE .50 IN A
FEW LOCATIONS.

FROM THE MID SHIFT BELOW...

A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE APPROACHES FROM THE WEST WITH A WARM
FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE SOUTH. GOOD MOISTURE CONVERGENCE AVAILABLE
OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA AS 45-50 KT LOW LEVEL JET
APPROACHES FROM THE SOUTH COAST. RAIN EXPECTED TO BECOME STEADIEST
ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE MASS PIKE WHERE HIGHEST PRECIPITABLE WATER AIR
RESIDES...BUT STILL SOME DISCREPANCY ON THE EXACT LOCATION OF
HEAVIEST QPF AMONGST THE MODELS. GFS APPEARS AGAIN TO BE SUFFERING
FROM SOME CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK ISSUES. USED HPC QPF AMOUNTS WHICH
APPEARED SIMILAR TO THE UKMET SOLUTION. TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO REMAIN
NEARLY STEADY OVERNIGHT.

SATURDAY...STEADY RAIN SHOULD TAPER TO LIGHTER SHOWERS AND DRIZZLE
FROM WEST TO EAST AS BEST MECHANISMS FOR LIFT INCLUDING HIGHER THETA-E
AIRMASS AND JET MAXIMA BEGIN TO HEAD OFFSHORE. MAIN CHALLENGE WILL BE
MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES...AS THE STATIONARY FRONT IS EXPECTED TO BISECT
THE REGION. CURRENTLY FORECASTING HIGHS IN THE 60S IN CONNECTICUT
WITH 50S ELSEWHERE EXCEPT UPPER 40S ALONG THE EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS COAST.
TEMPERATURES IN CONNECTICUT COULD RISE CLOSE TO 70 DEGREES IF SUNSHINE
CAN MANAGE TO BREAK THROUGH THE CLOUDS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT THIS PERIOD ON THE LARGE SCALE FLOW ACROSS THE
COUNTRY...WITH SECONDARY SURFACE WAVE EXITING THE REGION SAT NIGHT
AND POST FRONTAL FLOW TO FOLLOW.  THIS WILL BRING AN END TO THE
STEADY RAINS SAT NIGHT. HOWEVER...DESPITE FRONTAL BOUNDARY AND
SURFACE WAVE OFFSHORE SUNDAY...MID LEVEL FLOW REMAINS CYCLONIC WITH
MEAN TROF AXIS WEST OF NEW ENGLAND THROUGH MON.  THEREFORE...DIURNAL
SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE BOTH SUNDAY AND MONDAY. POST FRONTAL AIRMASS IS
CHILLY ACROSS THE AREA SUN AND MON...SO SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS MAY
MIX WITH SNOW AT TIMES ACROSS THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS AND ESPECIALLY
AFTER SUNSET WHEN BOUNDARY LAYER COOLS. ALTHOUGH WITH SURFACE TEMPS
ABOVE FREEZING NOT EXPECTING MUCH IF ANY ACCUMULATION.

IMPROVING WEATHER TUE AND WED AS ALL MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGEST MEAN
TROF AXIS BEGINNING TO SHIFT OFFSHORE...WITH DEEP LAYER ANTICYCLONIC
FLOW OVERSPREADING THE REGION PROVIDING DRY WEATHER AND A WARMING
TREND.

BY LATE WEEK MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE ADDITIONAL JET ENERGY
ROUNDING THE BASE OF THE EAST COAST MEAN TROF AND FORMING A CLOSED LOW
OFF THE SOUTHEAST STATES. LARGE SPREAD IN MODEL GUIDANCE HERE WITH
00Z UKMET AND 00Z GEFS INDICATING A MORE PROGRESSIVE AND OPEN WAVE
THAT REMAINS WELL SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND WITH LITTLE IF ANY IMPACT TO
OUR AREA. MEANWHILE...THE 00Z GFS/GGEM AND HI RES 00Z ECMWF ARE MORE
AMPLIFIED WITH A CLOSED LOW OFF THE SOUTHEAST STATES AND DRIFTING
ENE WITH TIME. PREFER THIS MORE AMPLIFIED CLOSED LOW SOLUTION GIVEN
NEW ENGLAND SPRING CLIMATOLOGY. THE 00Z ECMWF IS ON THE NW EDGE OF
ENVELOPE OF SOLUTIONS WITH THE 00Z GFS AND GGEM SOMEWHERE IN THE
MIDDLE... KEEPING PRECIP OFFSHORE AND NEW ENGLAND DRY. THEREFORE THE
00Z GFS AND ITS MOS OUTPUT SEEM REASONABLE AT THIS TIME RANGE AND
HAVE FOLLOWED ITS SOLUTION CLOSELY FOR THU/S FORECAST. HOWEVER...WE
WILL HAVE TO WATCH THIS LOW CLOSELY WITH TIME.
