AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
715 PM EDT TUE APR 1 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
STORM IN CANADA SWINGS A COLD FRONT THROUGH NEW ENGLAND TONIGHT.
LOW PRESSURE APPROACHES THE OHIO VALLEY WILL BRING RAIN
FRIDAY...POSSIBLY BEGINNING AS A PERIOD OF WET SNOW ACROSS THE
INTERIOR.  A SECOND WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE WILL THREATEN THE AREA WITH
ANOTHER ROUND RAIN FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...

AS OF 7 PM...FAIRLY DECENT LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS HAS DEVELOPED
ACROSS NY STATE AND INTO PENNSYLVANIA.  THUNDER INDICES ARE VERY
MARGINAL...BUT VERY STRONG JET DYNAMICS WITH MODELS SHOWING 500 MB
WINDS STRENGTHENING TO 100 KNOTS ACROSS NEW YORK STATE.  A LITTLE
BETTER INSTABILITY EXISTS TO THE WEST OF OUR REGION...BUT WITH
EXCELLENT JET DYNAMICS COMING INTO OUR REGION WILL CONTINUE TO
MENTION THE CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING.  THE BEST CHANCE
FOR THIS WILL BE BETWEEN 8 PM AND 11 PM...WITH THE HIGHEST CHANCE
FOR THUNDER IN OUR NORTHWEST ZONES.  SINCE THE WINDS ALOFT OUR QUITE
STRONG IF THE ACTIVITY HOLDS TOGETHER WE MAY SEE SOME GUSTY WINDS
WITH THE ACTIVITY.

THE REST OF FORECAST UNCHANGED FROM 4 PM:

LOW PRESSURE IN QUEBEC WITH A TRAILING COLD FRONT ALONG THE
APPALACHIAN CHAIN. SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND LINGERS IN THE WARM SECTOR
THROUGH THIS EVENING. COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE EXTRAPOLATES TO THE CT
VALLEY AROUND 01Z OR 02Z AND MOVES OFF THE EAST COAST 05Z-06Z.
INSTABILITY AHEAD OF THE FRONT IS MARGINAL WITH LI/S AROUND ZERO AND
NO IMMEDIATE HISTORY SO FAR OF THUNDER WITH THIS SEGMENT. GUIDANCE
DOES SHOW A 140 KNOT JET FEEDING INTO THE FRONT STARTING TONIGHT.
THIS COULD KICK IN ENOUGH DYNAMICS TO TRIGGER SCATTERED THUNDER. WE
WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION THIS IN THE FORECAST. DRIER AIR THEN MOVES
IN BEHIND THE FRONT AND SHOULD BRING CLEARING OVERNIGHT.

WINDS CONTINUE TO BE A FACTOR WITH THIS SYSTEM. A STRONG LOW LEVEL
JET FEEDS UP THE COAST INTO SOUTHEAST MASS AND RI...WITH 70 KNOTS AT
900 MB. THIS JET WILL MOVE OFF THROUGH THE GULF OF MAINE THIS
EVENING. THERE HAS BEEN A STRONG INVERSION AT GROUND LEVEL KEEPING
THE STRONGEST WINDS 1000-2000 FEET ALOFT. THE EXCEPTION HAS BEEN
AROUND BLUE HILL...WHERE SOUTHWEST GUSTS HAVE REACHED THE MID
40S...WITH SOME OF THIS WIND EXTENDING DOWNSLOPE TO THE NORTHEAST
INTO BOSTON WHERE LOGAN AIRPORT HAD SUSTAINED WINDS AROUND 31 MPH. A
WIND ADVISORY CONTINUES THROUGH THIS EVENING FOR THESE AREAS...WITH
WINDS EXPECTED TO DIMINISH AS THE LOW LEVEL JET MOVES OFF.

THIS SYSTEM CARRIES A SECOND CONCERN FOR ADVISORY WINDS. THE STORM
WILL CONTINUE TO STRENGTHEN AS IT MOVES OFF THROUGH EASTERN CANADA.
ISALLOBARIC COUPLETS OF 2-3 MB/HOUR STRENGTH WILL BRACKET THE LOW
CENTER AND DEMONSTRATE A SUFFICIENT PRESSURE GRADIENT FOR INCREASING
WIND. COLD ADVECTION WILL DESTABILIZE THE LOWER ATMOSPHERE AND ALLOW
MOMENTUM TRANSFER STARTING LATER TONIGHT. PER BUFKIT AND OTHER
METHODS...WE ESTIMATE POTENTIAL GUSTS OF 40-45 KNOTS ALONG AND
ESPECIALLY NORTH OF THE MASS PIKE WITH 30S TO THE SOUTH. FOR THIS
REASON WE WILL BRING A WIND ADVISORY FOR THIS AREA FOR LATER TONIGHT.
AS BOSTON IS ALREADY IN AN ADVISORY WE WILL LEAVE IT OUT OF THE LATER
ONE FOR NOW...AND WHEN THE WINDS DIMINISH THIS EVENING THERE WILL BE
GOOD REASONS TO ADD IT TO THE LATER ADVISORY AREA.

MIN TEMPERATURES WERE DRAWN FROM THE GFS MOS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
MORNING WINDS WILL CONTINUE WITH A POTENTIAL FOR GUSTS OF 40-45
KNOTS IN THE NORTH AND IN THE 30S IN THE SOUTH. THE ISALLOBARS RELAX
TO 1 MB/HOUR BY AFTERNOON...AND THE STRONGER WINDS IN THE MIXED LAYER
ALSO RELAX. SO THE WIND ADVISORY WILL CONTINUE IN THE MORNING AND END
IN THE AFTERNOON. THERE IS ENOUGH DRY AIR TO EXPECT MAINLY SUNNY
SKIES. MOS VALUES LOOK A TAD HIGH WITH LOWER 50S...BUT TEMPS ALOFT OF
-8C TO -10C. IN THIS CASE WE BLENDED THE MOS WITH THE COOLER 2M
TEMPS...BRINGING MORE 40S AND JUST A FEW SPOTS AROUND 50.

HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDS OVER THE REGION WEDNESDAY NIGHT. COLDER
DRIER AIR AND DIMINISHING WIND WILL ALLOW FOR CHILLIER MIN TEMPS. WE
STAYED WITH THE MOS VALUES FOR MIN TEMPS.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THURSDAY...
A MOSTLY SUNNY AND NICE DAY ON TAP FOR SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.
LOWERED MOS GUIDANCE A FEW DEGREES BASED ON 850 MB TEMPERATURES
AROUND -5C AND GFS/NAM FORECASTED 2 METER TEMPERATURES.
NONETHELESS...OUR ATMOSPHERE SHOULD BE SUPER-ADIABATIC AND VERY WELL
MIXED SO EXPECTED HIGHS TO REACH INTO THE MID 50S ACROSS THE LOWER
ELEVATIONS WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER READINGS ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN
AND ALONG THE SOUTH COAST.  BUFKIT SHOWS 25 MPH WIND GUSTS AT
TIMES SO THIS MAY MAKE IT FEEL A TAD COOLER...BUT STILL NOT A BAD
DAY FOR THE FIRST WEEK IN APRIL.

THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY...
LOW PRESSURE WILL QUICKLY MOVE INTO THE OHIO VALLEY BY EARLY FRIDAY
MORNING IN A RELATIVELY FAST WEST TO SOUTHWEST JET.  EXPECT CLOUDS
TO INCREASE IN ADVANCE OF THIS SYSTEM ACROSS OUR REGION THURSDAY
NIGHT.  THE MODELS DIFFER A BIT BY SEVERAL HOURS ON WHEN THE
PRECIPITATION ARRIVES WITH THE GFS/UKMET THE FASTEST AND
ECMWF/CANADIAN/NAM SLOWER.  WE BLENDED THE MODELS AND FOLLOWED THE
MEAN SREF FOR THE START TIME.

PRECIPITATION MAY ARRIVE TOWARD DAYBREAK FRIDAY ACROSS THE INTERIOR
AND REACH THE COASTAL PLAIN BY EARLY/MID FRIDAY MORNING.  ON FRIDAY
WE WILL BE CONTINUING WITH CATEGORICAL POPS.  IT LOOKS TO BE COLD
ENOUGH TO SUPPORT A PERIOD OF WET SNOW AT THE ONSET...MAINLY TO THE
NORTHWEST OF I-95 AND PARTICULARLY ACROSS THE INTERIOR HIGH
TERRAIN.  IF THE PRECIPITATION BEGINS EARLY ENOUGH A FEW INCHES OF
WET SNOW WOULD BE POSSIBLE ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE INTERIOR HIGHER
TERRAIN.  WHAT EVER HAPPENS...ALL THE PRECIPITATION SHOULD CHANGE TO
RAIN DURING THE AFTERNOON AS THE COLUMN WARMS.

LOWS THURSDAY NIGHT SHOULD BE MAINLY IN THE 20S ACROSS THE
INTERIOR...WITH GENERALLY LOW TO MID 30S ALONG THE COASTAL PLAIN.
TEMPERATURES MAY BEGIN TO RISE AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH AN INCREASING
SOUTHERLY WIND AND CLOUD COVER.  ON FRIDAY...WE UNDERCUT GUIDANCE
WITH ONSHORE FLOW EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG THE COAST WITH LIGHT
NORTHERLY WINDS ACROSS THE INTERIOR.  HIGHS MAINLY IN THE UPPER 30S
ACROSS THE INTERIOR AND BETWEEN 40 AND 45 ACROSS THE COASTAL PLAIN.

FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY...
THE PATTERN REMAINS UNSETTLED AS A SECOND WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE WILL
BRING ANOTHER POTENTIAL ROUND OF RAIN. WILL RUN WITH HIGH CHANCE TO
LIKELY POPS OVER THIS TIME.  MODELS HINTING THAT AREAS SOUTH OF THE
PIKE WILL SEE THE BEST CHANCE OF RAIN FROM THIS SECOND SYSTEM.
UNDERCUT GUIDANCE HIGHS ON SATURDAY AND KEPT HIGHS IN THE UPPER 40S
AND LOWER 50S AS INVERSION MAY HANG TOUGH.  LATER SHIFTS MAY HAVE TO
LOWER HIGH TEMPERATURES EVEN FURTHER IF THE 12Z ECMWF IS CORRECT.

SUNDAY AND MONDAY...
LOOKS LIKE THE WEATHER QUIETS DOWN AND DRIES OUT ON
SUNDAY...ALTHOUGH LATEST ECMWF INDICATES THERE STILL COULD BE SOME
LIGHT PRECIPITATION ALONG THE COAST DURING THE MORNING.
OTHERWISE...DRIER WEATHER BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON INTO MONDAY.  WEATHER
LOOKS SEASONABLE THOUGH WITH HIGHS MAINLY IN THE 50S.

MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY...
LATEST ECMWF DOES NOT SHOW MUCH...WHILE THE OPERATIONAL GFS SHOWS A
DECENT RAIN EVENT FOR MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY.  HOWEVER...ITS
ENSEMBLES ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE SO JUST WENT WITH LOW CHANCE POPS
FOR NOW AS CONFIDENCE IN ANY SOLUTION THIS FAR OUT IS LOW.

&&

.AVIATION /23Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
MVFR/IFR IN SHOWERS AND WIDELY SCATTERED TSTMS. STRONG SOUTHWEST
WINDS WILL COME AROUND TO WEST DURING 03Z TO 06Z AS THE COLD FRONT
MOVES THROUGH. WINDS WILL THEN REMAIN STRONG FROM THE WEST-NORTHWEST
OVERNIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY WITH GUSTS OF 40-45 KNOTS FROM BOSTON-
SPRINGFIELD NORTHWARD.

WINDS DIMINISH WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. VFR WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

OUTLOOK THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...

THURSDAY...VFR WITH LOW 20 KNOT WESTERLY WIND GUSTS EXPECTED DURING
THE AFTERNOON.

FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS IN LOW CLOUDS AND PERIODS
OF RAIN.  PRECIPITATION MAY BEGIN AS SOME WET SNOW FRIDAY MORNING AT
THE MHT/ORH/BAF TERMINALS.

SUNDAY...MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS SHOULD GRADUALLY IMPROVE TO VFR BUT
TIMING OF WHEN THIS OCCURS IS UNCERTAIN.

&&

.MARINE...
SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WINDS AT OR NEAR GALE FORCE WILL SHIFT TO WEST
AROUND MIDNIGHT AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH. WEST TO NORTHWEST
GALES ARE EXPECTED BEHIND THE FRONT IN ALL WATERS. THESE GALES WILL
PERSIST INTO WEDNESDAY...THEN DIMINISH LATE WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY
NIGHT.

OUTLOOK...THURSDAY THOUGH SUNDAY...

THURSDAY...LOW 20 KNOT WIND GUSTS EXPECTED NEAR SHORE WITH GOOD
MIXING DURING THE AFTERNOON BUT SEAS SHOULD REMAIN BELOW THRESHOLDS.

FRIDAY...STRONG SCA EXPECTED FROM THE EAST IN ADVANCE OF A WAVE OF
LOW PRESSURE THROUGH AT LEAST EARLY EVENING.  MAY EVEN SEE AN HOUR
OR TWO OF MARGINAL 35 KNOT WIND GUSTS ACROSS OUR SOUTHERN WATERS.
SEAS MAY ALSO BUILD TO NEARLY 10 FEET FOR A TIME BY FRIDAY EVENING
ACROSS OUR SOUTHERN OUTER-WATERS WITH A GOOD FETCH.

SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...SEAS WILL LIKELY REMAIN ABOVE SCA LEVELS
ACROSS OUR SOUTHERN-OUTER WATERS FROM LEFT OVER SWELL.  MAY ALSO SEE
A ROUND OR TWO OF MARGINAL NORTHERLY 20 TO 25 KNOT WIND GUSTS BEHIND
A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
0.50 TO 1.25 INCHES OF PRECIPITATION ARE EXPECTED WITH STORM SYSTEM
ON FRIDAY.  ADDITIONAL RAINFALL IS POSSIBLE ON FRIDAY NIGHT INTO
SATURDAY BUT AMOUNTS ARE HIGHLY UNCERTAIN AND THIS WILL DEPEND ON
THE TRACK.

AT THIS TIME...IT LOOKS LIKE THE WEATHER ACROSS NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND
WILL REMAIN RATHER CHILLY FROM THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.  THIS
SHOULD PREVENT A RAPID SNOWMELT AND PREVENT ANY MAJOR FLOODING
PROBLEMS ACROSS OUR REGION THROUGH THE WEEKEND DESPITE THE EXPECTED
RAIN.  HOWEVER...WE WILL STILL HAVE TO MONITOR THIS POTENTIAL FOR A
LATER DATE WITH A DEEP SNOW WATER EQUIVALENT OF 5 TO 12 INCHES
ACROSS VERMONT AND WESTERN NEW HAMPSHIRE.
