AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
706 PM EDT TUE JUN 10 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT AND BRING AN END TO THE RECORD BREAKING HEAT.
DRY AND MORE SEASONABLE WEATHER WILL FOLLOW WEDNESDAY THROUGH
FRIDAY...ALTHOUGH TEMPERATURES WILL STILL BE A BIT ABOVE NORMAL.
ANOTHER COLD FRONT MAY BRING A ROUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO
THE REGION SOMETIME LATER SATURDAY INTO EARLY SUNDAY BUT TIMING IS
UNCERTAIN THIS FAR OUT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 503 IN EFFECT FOR WESTERN
MASSACHUSETTS...HARTFORD COUNTY CONNECTICUT AND CHESHIRE
COUNTY NEW HAMPSHIRE.

UPDATED HOURLY TEMPERATURES AND DEWPOINTS...BUT WITH LITTLE CHANGE TO
THE REMAINDER OF CURRENT FORECAST. CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS IN
PENNSYLVANIA IS QUICKLY EXPANDING NORTHEAST AND SHOULD REACH WESTERN
ZONES AFTER 8 PM.

PLS IGNORE THE BAF NOON 99F AND 108HI. TECH WAS WORKING ON THE
SYSTEM. HI GENERALLY MAXED WITHIN 2F OF 101 THIS AFTN.  ASH AWOS WAS
105 AT 18Z.

GHG TD SEEMS INCORRECT AND CONTRIBUTING TO A VERY HI 5PM HI.

PNS POSTED ON THE EARLY SEASON SCORCHING HEAT.

SVR: WE ANTICIPATE SVR ARRIVING FM THE WSW ACROSS THE BERKS ARD 8 PM
AND DYING AS IT REACHES NE MASS COAST ARD 05Z-06Z...POSSIBLY AS SHOWERS
ISOLATED TSTMS WITH GUST 40 KTS AT BOS HARBOR. COOLER BL AIR MOVING
NNE FM SRN CT INTO RI AND SE MASS LATE THIS EVE SHOULD REDUCE SVR RISK
SE NEW ENGLAND.

GOOD CHANCE A CLUSTER OR TWO OF DAMAGING TSTMS THRU THE CT RVR VALLEY
INTO THE ORH HILLS THIS EVENING AS PER HWO AND OUR FCST GRIDS.

TEMPS AND DEWS WERE MODIFIED TO REALITY THRU THIS EVE AND THEN GFS MAVMOSGUIDE
LATE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
GFS MAVMOSGUIDE WITH SUSTAINED WINDS SPLIT 50/50 USING 12Z MOS FM NAM
AND GFS. RAISED GFS MAVMOSGUIDE TEMPS IN DRY WNW BL FLOW WITH BRILLIANT
DUSTY SS ONCE AGAIN...VALLEYS AND COASTAL PLAIN 20 DEGS WARMER THAN THE
PREVAILING 1000-500MB GUIDANCE. THIS IS CLOSE TO THE 4AM KBOX FCST.

GUSTS FROM THE NAM MXG HTS AND GFS GUST ALG.

BASICALLY BEAUTIFUL WEATHER THIS 24 HOUR PERIOD AND HEAT INDEX 15F
COOLER WED

NW WINDS WILL BE GUSTY TO 20 KTS DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS WED
JUST AFTER SUNRISE.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THURSDAY...MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES WILL RESULT IN A BEAUTIFUL JUNE DAY
FOR SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.  DRY NORTHWEST FLOW SHOULD ALLOW FOR A
WELL MIXED ATMOSPHERE AND COMFORTABLE HUMIDITY LEVELS.  WITH THE
STRONG JUNE SUNSHINE WILL FOLLOW THE WARMER GFS GUIDANCE.  HIGHS
ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION SHOULD BE IN THE 80 TO 85 DEGREE RANGE
ALTHOUGH IT WILL BE A FEW DEGREES COOLER ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE CAPE
AND ISLANDS WITH THE MARINE INFLUENCE.

THURSDAY NIGHT...PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES EXPECTED WITH JUST A
BIT OF HIGH CLOUDINESS POSSIBLE.  OTHERWISE...DIMINISHING WIND AND
LOWER DEWPOINTS SHOULD ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO FALL QUICKLY DURING THE
EVENING.  OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPERATURES SHOULD FALL INTO THE COOL MID
TO UPPER 40S ACROSS THE OUTLYING LOCATIONS OF SOUTHWEST MA/NORTHWEST
MA...TO MAINLY THE 50S ELSEWHERE.

FRIDAY...PARTLY TO MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES WILL ALLOW FOR ANOTHER
GORGEOUS DAY ALTHOUGH IT WILL BE A FEW DEGREES WARMER THAN THURSDAY.
UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDING BACK OVER OUR REGION COMBINING WITH
INCREASING SOUTHWEST SURFACE WINDS WILL ALLOW FOR HIGH TEMPERATURES
TO RECOVER BACK INTO THE MID TO UPPER 80S AWAY FROM THE IMMEDIATE
COAST.  THE MARINE INFLUENCE SHOULD KEEP HIGHS ALONG THE IMMEDIATE
COAST IN THE 70S...TO NEAR 80.  HAVE FOLLOWED WARMER MAV NUMBERS AS
THE ATMOSPHERE SHOULD BE FAIRLY WELL MIXED.

FRIDAY NIGHT...PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES AND WARMING MID LEVEL
TEMPERATURES SHOULD HOLD OVERNIGHT LOWS NEAR THE MEX GUIDANCE
NUMBERS...MAINLY IN THE LOWER 60S.  WITH INCREASING DEWPOINTS WE MAY
SEE A BIT OF PATCHY FOG ALONG THE SOUTH COAST/CAPE AND ISLANDS AS
WELL AS THE TYPICALLY PRONE LOCATIONS.

SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...A COLD FRONT LOOKS TO APPROACH THE REGION
SOMETIME SATURDAY AFTERNOON OR NIGHT.  SOUTHWEST FLOW AHEAD OF THE
COLD FRONT SHOULD PUSH HIGH TEMPERATURES ABOVE MEX GUIDANCE WITH THE
DOWNSLOPE AND SUPPORT OF GFS 2 METER TEMPERATURE FORECASTS.  HIGHS
SHOULD REACH WELL INTO THE 80S AWAY FROM THE SOUTH COAST...CAPE AND
ISLANDS.

AS FOR PRECIPITATION CHANCES...TIMING IS UNCERTAIN THIS FAR OUT.
HOWEVER...WILL GO FOR A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS
THE INTERIOR SATURDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING AS THE COLD FRONT
APPROACHES.  WE THEN WILL BRING AN AREAS OF SHOWERS AND PERHAPS A
FEW THUNDERSTORMS TOWARDS THE COAST SATURDAY EVENING OR NIGHT.  THE
ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY BE IN A WEAKENING STATE AS IT APPROACHES THE
COASTAL PLAIN WITH SOUTHWEST FLOW ALLOWING FOR A MARINE INFLUENCE.
AT THIS TIME...IT LOOKS LIKE ANY SHOWER ACTIVITY SHOULD BE OUT OF
THE REGION BY SUNDAY MORNING ALLOWING FOR A DRY SUNDAY.
HOWEVER...TIMING THIS FAR OUT IS UNCERTAIN AND WILL HAVE TO WATCH IN
CASE THE FRONT SLOWS UP.

MONDAY AND TUESDAY...QUITE A BIT OF MODEL DISCREPANCY THIS FAR OUT.
THE ECMWF/UKMET SHOW THAT MONDAY COULD BE QUITE A WARM DAY AWAY FROM
THE MARINE INFLUENCE WITH SOUTHWEST FLOW AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING
COLD FRONT.  THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE ON THE ECMWF MODEL WHICH HAS
850 MB TEMPERATURES BETWEEN +18C AND +19C MONDAY AFTERNOON.
MEANWHILE...THE GFS/CANADIAN HAD MUCH LOWER HEIGHTS AND COOLER
TEMPERATURES.  LEANED TOWARDS THE WARMER SOLUTION AND RAISED MEX
HIGHS ON MONDAY WELL INTO THE 80S AWAY FROM THE MARINE INFLUENCE.

THE GFS MOVES THE COLD FRONT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...WHILE THE ECMWF
HAS IT HUNG UP ACROSS THE REGION TUESDAY MORNING.  PLENTY OF
UNCERTAINTY...SO WILL CARRY 25 TO 30 POPS MONDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
TUESDAY AFTERNOON FOR A CHANCE OF A FEW SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS WITH
THE FRONT.  SINCE THE FRONT MAY MOVE SLOWER THAN THE GFS SHOWS...WE
DID INCREASE MEX GUIDANCE HIGHS A TAD ON TUESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
TONIGHT...NUMEROUS TSTMS BDL/BAF 00Z-06Z WITH ISOLATED TSTMS FARTHER
EAST BOS/PVD. MVFR WITH ANY STORMS ALONG WITH POSSIBLY GUSTY WINDS
AND HAIL. TSTMS WILL WEAKEN BY 06Z AND THEN PUSH OFFSHORE WITH VFR
ALL TERMINALS TOWARD MORNING. MVFR FOG OR HAZE ESPECIALLY ACROSS SE
TERMINALS WHERE WIND SHIFT TO NW WILL OCCUR LAST.

WED...VFR.

OUTLOOK...THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...VFR CONDITIONS BUT THERE COULD BE A BIT OF
LOCALIZED IFR/MVFR LATE FRIDAY NIGHT IN FOG PATCHES.

SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...MAINLY VFR BUT A COLD FRONT WILL PROBABLY
BRING A PERIOD OF SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE REGION
SOMETIME LATER SATURDAY INTO EARLY SUNDAY.  THIS WILL PROBABLY
RESULT IN A PERIOD OF IFR/MVFR CONDITIONS TO SOME TERMINALS.

&&

.MARINE...
TONIGHT... WEAKENING TSTMS APPROACHING FROM THE WEST AROUND 05Z. COLD
FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE WATERS 2 AM TO 8 AM. SSW WINDS SHIFT TO WNW
ALONG WITH IMPROVING VSBY.

WED...
GEM OF A DAY WITH WNW WINDS BECOMING SW LATE. SHARP HORIZON WITH A
NEW AIRMASS OVER NEW ENGLAND.

OUTLOOK...THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...

GENERALLY QUIET ACROSS THE WATERS OVER THIS TIME.  SOUTHWEST FLOW
AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT MAY RESULT IN MARGINAL 5 FOOT SEAS LATER
SATURDAY INTO PART OF SUNDAY.  HOWEVER...WITH INVERSION OVER THE
WATERS LOWERED AND SLOWED DOWN WNA GUIDANCE WAVE HEIGHTS.  WE MAY
ALSO DEAL WITH FOG PATCHES OVER THE WATERS THIS WEEKEND WITH
SOUTHWEST FLOW TRANSPORTING SOME LOW LEVEL MOISTURE OVER THE REGION.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT

PLEASE LISTEN TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO OR GO TO WEATHER.GOV ON THE
INTERNET FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE FOLLOWING HAZARDS.

   AIR QUALITY ALERT.

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE APPROACHING THE REGION FROM THE WEST
TONIGHT.  THE RISK FOR DECAYING BUT POSSIBLY STILL SEVERE STORMS IN
THE MONADNOCKS...WORCESTER HILLS AND NORTHEAST CONNECTICUT IS BETWEEN
9 PM AND MIDNIGHT. THE MAIN THREAT WOULD BE ISOLATED POCKETS OF
DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WIND GUSTS ALTHOUGH AN ISOLATED REPORT OR TWO OF
LARGE HAIL IS ALSO POSSIBLE.

FURTHER EAST...FROM THE MERRIMACK VALLEY OF NORTHEAST MASSACHUSETTS
THROUGH BOSTONS WEST SUBURBS INTO THE HILLS OF NORTHERN RHODE ISLAND
THERE IS A LOW PROBABILITY THAT THE STORMS REMAINING STRONG ENOUGH TO
PRODUCE ISOLATED REPORTS OF WIND DAMAGE AROUND OR SHORTLY AFTER
MIDNIGHT. WE EXPECT THAT THE THUNDERSTORM THREAT WILL GENERALLY
REMAIN NORTHWEST OF A BOSTON TO PROVIDENCE LINE...AS THE ACTIVITY
SHOULD WEAKEN AS IT ENCOUNTERS A LESS FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY

THERE IS A CHANCE OF A THUNDERSTORM LATE SATURDAY OR SATURDAY NIGHT.
