AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1042 AM EDT MON JUL 21 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
EXCESSIVE HEAT FROM THE PAST WEEK WILL BE REPLACED BY MORE
SEASONABLE LIKE TEMPERATURES THIS WEEK.  ALTHOUGH HUMIDITY WILL
REMAIN HIGH...BUT LESS HUMID WEATHER WILL ARRIVE LATE IN THE WEEK
AND INTO NEXT WEEKEND. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
IMPACT THE REGION MUCH OF THE WEEK...WITH THE EXCEPTION BEING
TUESDAY WHEN MAINLY DRY WEATHER IS EXPECTED. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE MOST NUMEROUS TUE NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY WITH
HEAVY RAIN AND FLOODING POSSIBLE.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
LATE THIS MORNING...SHOWERS AND SCT TSTMS WERE CONFINED TO CAPE COD
AND FROM ACK SOUTHWARD IN PWAT PLUME. DEEPEST MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE
TO BE CONFINED TO IMMEDIATE SOUTH COAST THIS AFTERNOON ALONG WITH
BEST MOISTURE CONVERGENCE SO THIS SHOULD BE THE AREA MOST VULNERABLE
FOR SHOWERS/TSTMS THIS AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...ENOUGH MOSTURE AND
INSTABILITY FOR SCT ACTIVITY ANYWHERE IN SNE.

MODIFIED PVD SOUNDING FOR 86/70 YIELDS MLCAPES OF 1500 J/KG.
INSTABILITY LESS IN THE INTERIOR WHERE COLUMN MOISTURE IS A LITTLE
LESS.

OTHER CONVECTIVE PARAMETERS ARE NOT THAT IMPRESSIVE WITH TT IN THE
LOWER 40S AND WEAK MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES SO DONT EXPECT WIDESPREAD
CONVECTION. WE CONFINED LIKELY POPS TO CAPE/ISLANDS WITH CHC/SCT
POPS ELSEWHERE.

SPC HAS SNE IN SLIGHT RISK TODAY AS 0-6 KM BULK SHEAR REACHES 30-40
KTS. BEST SHEAR IS TO THE NORTH WHERE INSTABILITY IS LESS AND MID
LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE WEAK SO THINK ANY SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE ISOLD.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM TUESDAY/...
HAVE KEPT CHANCE POPS GOING INTO TNGT FOR CAPE/ISLANDS TO ALLOW TIME
FOR 850 MB THETA E AXIS TO SLIP FURTHER OFFSHORE. CRISTOBAL SHOULD
PASS A LITTLE SE OF THE BENCHMARK WITH SQUALLY WINDS ON E SIDE
REMAINING WELL SE OF COASTAL WATERS. DO EXPECT AN INCREASE IN SWELLS
FROM CRISTOBAL TONIGHT.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
*** POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINFALL AND FLOODING WED AND THU ***

TUESDAY...
MAINLY DRY WEATHER SHOULD PREVAIL AS SHORT WAVE TROF AND T.S.
CRISTOBAL MOVE OFFSHORE /PASSING SOUTHEAST OF 40N/70W BENCHMARK/...
WITH SOME WEAK SHORT WAVE RIDGING BUILDING ACROSS THE REGION AS BOTH
OF THESE FEATURES MOVE OFFSHORE.

WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY...

ALL MODEL GUIDANCE IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT ON THE EVOLUTION OF TWO
ANOMALOUS FEATURES FOR MID WEEK - A MID LEVEL CLOSED LOW OVER THE
EASTERN GREAT LAKES AND ST LAWRENCE RIVER VALLEY ALONG WITH A 597
DAM RIDGE OVER THE NORTHWEST ATLC. THIS TWO FEATURES WILL COMBINE TO
YIELD STRONG JET DYNAMICS AND DEEP LAYER TROPICAL MOISTURE OVER THE
NORTHEAST WED AND THU.

00Z GEFS INDICATE WIND ANOMALIES AT 250/850 AND 925 MB WILL APPROACH
+3 SD WED NIGHT AND THU ACROSS THE REGION...WITH THE AXIS ACROSS
EASTERN MA. HOWEVER PWATS ONLY RECOVER TO ABOUT +1 TO +2 SD DURING
THIS TIME...AS PERHAPS MAIN PLUME OF TROPICAL MOISTURE IS TAKEN
SEAWARD WITH T.S. CRISTOBAL.

FOR EXCESSIVE RAINFALL THREAT WIND AND PWAT ANOMALIES ARE TYPICAL +3
SD AND HIGHER...THEREFORE CONFIDENCE IS AVERAGE TO BELOW AVERAGE FOR
EXCESSIVE RAINFALL HERE. NEVERTHELESS...A HIGH RISK FOR SOAKING
RAINS EXIST WED AND THU ALONG WITH AT LEAST LOCALIZED MINOR POOR
DRAINAGE AND URBAN TYPE FLOODING.

OUR QPF FORECAST FOR TUE NIGHT THROUGH FRI MORNING IS AN ENSEMBLE OF
20/21Z SREF/00Z GFS GRIDDED MOS/06 HPC AND 00Z GFS. THIS QPF
ENSEMBLE YIELDS UP TO 3 INCHES OF RAINFALL ACROSS CT/WEST-CENTRAL MA
INTO SOUTHWEST NH...WITH ABOUT 2 INCHES FARTHER EAST INTO RI AND
EASTERN MA.

FRIDAY AND THE WEEKEND...
BY FRI MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT DRY WEATHER SHOULD
RETURN WITH MID LEVEL TROF PUSHING OFFSHORE. HOWEVER THE LONG WAVE
TROF LINGERS ACROSS THE NORTHEAST AND GREAT LAKES WITH ANOTHER
BUNDLE OF JET ENERGY DIVING INTO THE MEAN TROF NEXT WEEKEND. THIS
WILL FORM ANOTHER MID LEVEL LOW OVER THE NORTHEAST. THEREFORE
SHOWERS/TSTMS WILL REMAIN IN THE WEEKEND FORECAST.

&&

.AVIATION /14Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
FOR THE MOST PART EXPECT MVFR CIGS FAIRLY WIDESPREAD E OF CT RIVER
VLY. AREAS IFR VSBYS RI COAST AND SE MA. AFT 15Z CONDITIONS IMPROVING
TO MOSTLY VFR...EXCEPT MVFR CIGS AND VSBYS PERSISTING S COAST RI AND
MA. SCT TSTMS DURING AFTN...MAINLY ALONG AND SE OF BOS-PVD CORRIDOR.

TONIGHT...MOSTLY VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED NW OF PYM-WST LINE...AND
GENERALLY MVFR CIGS AND VSBYS DUE TO STRATUS AND FOG SE OF THAT LINE
WITH AREAS IFR CIGS AND VSBYS ACROSS CAPE AND ISLANDS.

OUTLOOK...TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...

TUESDAY...MAINLY VFR.

WED AND THU...MVFR LIKELY WITH NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND TSTMS.

FRI...VFR LIKELY.

&&

.MARINE...
SCA FOR G25 KTS CONFINED TO ACK SOUND TIL 16Z. WINDS HAVE DIMINISHED
TO THE WEST AS MODEST LLJ SHIFTS EAST.

SW FETCH CONTINUES TO BUILD SEAS OFF S COAST TODAY WITH CONTRIBUTION
FROM CRISTOBAL EXPECTED TO START TONIGHT. HAVE EXPANDED SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY FOR HAZARDOUS SEAS INTO RI AND BLOCK ISLAND SOUNDS THIS AFTN
AND TNGT. STRONGER WINDS ON E SEMICIRCLE OF CRISTOBAL SHOULD REMAIN
WELL SE OF COASTAL WATERS...ALTHOUGH A POTENTIAL CONCERN OF ANY
MARINERS PLANNING TO HEAD FAR OUT TNGT.

OUTLOOK...TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...

TUESDAY...S SWELLS FROM TROPICAL STORM CRISTOBAL WILL IMPACT THE
OCEAN WATERS. OTHERWISE SHOULD BE QUIET WEATHER.

WED AND THU...SOUTH WINDS WILL INCREASE TO AT LEAST 15-20 KT AS
PRESSURE GRADIENT INCREASES AHEAD OF APPROACHING COLD FRONT. THIS IS
A LOW PROBABILITY THAT WIND GUSTS COULD APPROACH 30 KT. NUMEROUS
TSTMS EXPECTED WED AND THU.

FRI...COLD FRONT SHOULD BE MOVING OFFSHORE WITH QUIET WEATHER TO
FOLLOW. LEFTOVER S SWELLS LIKELY ACROSS THE OCEAN WATERS.
