AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1116 AM EDT THU JUL 24 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
A SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT WILL BRING HEAVY RAINFALL AND POSSIBLE
FLOODING TO PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND THROUGH THIS EVENING.
A SECOND COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH LATE THIS WEEKEND WITH ANOTHER
ROUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE. UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL
REMAIN ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
BEST HELICITY HAS SHIFTED NORTH TO NH. BUT MORNING SOLAR HEATING HAS
CREATED A BULLSEYE OF INSTABILITY OVER EASTERN MASS/RI. THIS WILL BE
OUR GREATEST CONCERN FOR POTENTIAL SEVERE TSTMS THIS
AFTERNOON...MOSTLY STRAIGHT LINE WINDS. WITH HIGH PW/S...EXPECT HEAVY
DOWNPOURS AS WELL. WARM AND HUMID WITH SHOWERS/TSTMS OTHERWISE.

A HIGH SURF ADVISORY CONTINUES FOR SOUTH COASTAL MASSACHUSETTS AND
SOUTHERN RHODE ISLAND. CURRENT SEAS ARE AT 5 FEET AND BUILDING. WE
EXPECT WAVE HEIGHTS AND THE RIP CURRENT RISK TO INCREASE THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
THURSDAY NIGHT...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING WILL COME TO
AN END AS THE COLD FRONT CROSSES SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. HAVE
CONTINUED LIKELY TO CATEGORICAL POPS ACROSS MUCH OF THE FORECAST
AREA. EXPECT A VERY HUMID NIGHT...BUT WITH SOME DECEASING HUMIDITY
LATE ACROSS THE FAR INTERIOR.

FRIDAY...A FEW LINGERING MORNING SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE ON THE
CAPE AND ISLANDS. OTHERWISE EXPECT A SEASONABLY WARM DAY WITH
INCREASING SUNSHINE AND LOWERING HUMIDITY VALUES.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MODELS SHOWING LESS CONTINUITY THIS MORNING...LENDING TO LESS
CONFIDENCE TO THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST...ESPECIALLY FROM MONDAY
ONWARD. LEANED TOWARD THE GFS AND ECMWF ENSEMBLES FOR THIS PORTION
OF THE FORECAST.

ONE THING THAT APPEARS TO SHOW SOME CONTINUITY IS THE LONG WAVE
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH THAT IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN ALONG THE EASTERN U.S.
THROUGH AT LEAST TUESDAY.

FRIDAY NIGHT...DRIER WEATHER CONTINUES BEHIND A DEPARTING COLD FRONT.

SATURDAY...NEXT FRONT BEGINS TO APPROACH AROUND THE CUTOFF UPPER LOW
OVER QUEBEC. TIMING IS SUSPECT AS MODELS SHOWING SOME SPREAD AT THIS
POINT...BUT HAVE INCLUDED CHANCE POPS FROM W-E DURING THE DAY. DEWPTS
HEAD BACK UP WITH THE CONTINUED SW FLOW. CURRENT TIMING SUGGESTS BEST
SHOT OF SHWRS/TSTMS WILL OCCUR DURING THE NIGHTTIME HOURS...BUT NOT A
WHOLE LOT OF CONFIDENCE.

SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...AT THIS POINT...APPEARS THAT THE FRONT
SLOWS TO A CRAWL AS IT CROSSES THE REGION OVER THIS WEEKEND...THEN
WILL PUSH JUST OFF THE COAST ON MONDAY. HAVE CARRIED CHANCE POPS
THROUGH MONDAY...THOUGH STILL HAVE NOT A LOT OF CONFIDENCE WITH THE
TIMING OF THIS SYSTEM.

WEDNESDAY...APPEARS THAT IT WILL BE A DRY DAY WITH HIGH PRES TRYING
TO PUSH E OUT OF THE GREAT LAKES. HOWEVER...LOW CONFIDENCE DUE TO
THE VERY AMPLIFIED UPPER PATTERN IN PLACE.

&&

.AVIATION /15Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
THIS AFTERNOON...AREAS MVFR WITH SCATTERED IFR CEILINGS. SCATTERED
CONVECTION BECOMING WIDESPREAD SHRA/TSRA THIS AFTERNOON. HEAVY
