HAMPSHIRE HAS BEEN CANCELLED. THIS INCLUDES ESSEX...MIDDLESEX...NORFOLK...
NORTHERN BRISTOL...WESTERN PLYMOUTH AND EASTERN PLYMOUTH COUNTIES IN
MASSACHUSETTS AND HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY IN SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE. 

AS THE MODELS HAVE COME INTO BETTER AGREEMENT ON THE TRACK OF THE LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM...THE AXIS OF HEAVIEST RAINFALL HAS BECOME EASIER TO
PINPOINT. THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL WILL BE ACROSS CONNECTICUT AND RHODE
ISLAND AND SOUTH COASTAL MASSACHUSETTS. THEREFORE WE HAVE CANCELLED
THE FLOOD WATCH FOR THE ABOVE MENTIONED AREAS FOR TONIGHT THROUGH
SUNDAY MORNING.

THE NEXT STORM MOVING TOWARDS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND APPEARS TO FOCUS
THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL ACROSS EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS FOR MONDAY AND
TUESDAY. ANOTHER FLOOD WATCH FOR THIS AREA MAY NEED TO BE CONSIDERED
FOLLOWING THIS INITIAL STORM.

NOCERA

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
428 PM EDT FRI JUN 19 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
WEAK LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE EAST INTO THE GULF OF MAINE TONIGHT. A
STRONGER LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE FROM THE GREAT LAKES TO THE MID
ATLANTIC STATES ON SATURDAY. THIS LOW WILL LIKELY MEANDER SOUTH OF
CAPE COD UNTIL EARLY NEXT WEEK. AS A RESULT OF ALL THESE WEATHER
SYSTEMS...PERIODS OF SHOWERS...LOCALLY HEAVY AT TIMES...ARE POSSIBLE
THROUGH THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 10 PM THIS EVENING/...
BULK OF THE MEASURABLE RAINFALL HAS MOVED OFF THE COAST LATE THIS
AFTERNOON...BUT CANNOT RULE OUT EITHER A SPRINKLE OR PATCH OF DRIZZLE
THIS EVENING WITH ABUNDANT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE IN PLACE.

DO NOT EXPECT MUCH CLEARING AFTER SUNSET...EVEN WITH THE DIURNAL
LOOKING NATURE OF THE CLOUDS ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.

&&

.SHORT TERM /10 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
A COMPLEX SITUATION IS DEVELOPING DURING THIS PORTION OF THE
FORECAST. NOT MUCH AGREEMENT AMONGST THE MODELS IN THE DETAILS...BUT
ARE STARTING TO SEE SOME TRENDS.

12Z GFS APPEARS TO BE SUFFERING FROM CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK...RAISING
MAJOR QUESTIONS WITH ITS SOLUTION. NAM AND ECMWF ARE CLOSE...WITH THE
GEFS MEAN RIGHT IN BETWEEN THEM. 12Z GGEM IS ALSO IN THE CAMP...BUT
MORE OF A NORTHERN OUTLIER. FOR THIS FORECAST...IGNORED THE GFS
SOLUTION AND WENT IN BETWEEN THE GGEM AND NAM.

THE BIGGEST QUESTION WILL BE THE TRACK OF A MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE
SYSTEM LATER TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING. THIS COULD HAVE A
PROFOUND INFLUENCE ON THE MID LEVEL FLOW...POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A
COURSE CORRECTION FOR A LOW PRESSURE MOVING EAST FROM THE GREAT LAKES
SATURDAY AFTERNOON INTO SATURDAY NIGHT. RAINFALL COULD BE A
PROBLEM...SO HAVE ISSUED A FLOOD WATCH FOR MOST OF SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND. PLEASE SEE THE HYDROLOGY SECTION FOR MORE DETAILS.

THIS LOW PRESSURE SHOULD MOVE OFF THE COAST LATE SATURDAY
NIGHT...BRINGING AN END TO OUR RAIN FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
CONFIDENCE IS FAIRLY HIGH IN AN UNSETTLED PATTERN EARLY IN THE
FORECAST PERIOD...HOWEVER...CONFIDENCE IN THE DETAILS...SUCH AS
POPS AND AMOUNT OF RAIN WE GET IS LOW.

AFTER PERUSING THE 12Z MODEL SUITE...IT WAS CONCLUDED THAT A MIXTURE
OF HPC AND ECMWF GUIDANCE IS PROBABLY THE BEST SOLUTION AT THIS TIME.
THEREFORE...A LOW TRACK FURTHER SOUTH THAN THE GFS SUNDAY INTO
MONDAY IS PREFERRED. WENT WITH LOW LIKELY POPS FOR SHOWERS SUNDAY AS
INFLOW SHOULD BE PRETTY GOOD /+2 TO +4 STANDARD DEVIATION EASTERLY
COMPONENT/ AT 925 AND 850 MB. PWATS LOOK TO REMAIN ANOMALOUSLY
HIGH...SO HEAVY SHOWER ACTIVITY IS CERTAINLY NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION.
THE QUESTION THAT DOES REMAIN THOUGH IS HOW FAR NORTH DOES THE MAIN
BAND OF HEAVIER PRECIPITATION GET. AT THIS TIME...IT MAY VERY WELL
REMAIN JUST TO THE SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND. NONETHELESS...THE WEATHER
WILL LIKELY BE CLOUDY WITH PERIODS OF SHOWERS SUNDAY RIGHT THROUGH
TUESDAY.

THE STACKED LOW OPENS UP A BIT AND MOVES NORTH MIDWEEK...AND THIS
SHOULD ALLOW FOR A WARMING TREND...AND MORE IMPORTANTLY A DRIER ONE.
EARLY INDICATIONS ARE THAT A LONG-AWAITED RETURN OF SUMMER-LIKE
WEATHER TOWARD THE END OF NEXT WEEK...HOWEVER...LOW CONFIDENCE ON
THAT ATTM.

THE RISK FOR STRONG RIP CURRENTS WILL INCREASE SUNDAY AND LAST
THROUGH AT LEAST TUESDAY...ESPECIALLY ON EAST FACING OCEAN BEACHES.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
LOW PRESSURE NEAR BOSTON MID AFTERNOON WILL MOVE EAST OF
MASSACHUSETTS TONIGHT. LINGERING IFR CIGS AND VSBYS IN THE SOUTH FLOW
AHEAD OF THIS LOW...CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE TO VFR WITH SCATTERED
MVFR CIGS IN SHOWERS AS THE LOW MOVES OFFSHORE AND THE FLOW BECOMES
LIGHT NORTH.  THE SCATTERED SHOWERS SHOULD DIMINISH THIS EVENING.

VFR AND SCATTERED MVFR CIGS EARLY TONIGHT. PLENTY OF MOISTURE AT LOW
LEVELS WITH ADDITIONAL MOISTURE EVAPORATING FROM WET GROUND. SO WE
EXPECT IFR CIGS AND VSBYS TO REDEVELOP TONIGHT WITH LIFR CIGS/VSBYS
IN FOG AND DRIZZLE IN PLACES LIKE WORCESTER AND NANTUCKET.

IFR AND LIFR CONDITIONS TO START ON SATURDAY WITH CONDITIONS BRIEFLY
IMPROVING TO VFR VSBYS AND MVFR/VFR CIGS. BUT THE EAST FLOW RESUMES
BY MID AFTERNOON AS ANOTHER LOW APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. EXPECT
CONDITIONS TO LOWER FROM WEST TO EAST MID TO LATE AFTERNOON...TO IFR
WITH AREAS OF LIFR IN RAIN AND FOG BY SATURDAY NIGHT.

OUTLOOK /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
WIDESPREAD IFR CONDITIONS LIKELY IN LOW CEILINGS...SHOWERS AND FOG
SUNDAY WITH A PREVAILING E/NE FLOW. LOW PROBABILITY OF AREAS OF LIFR
DURING THIS TIME. GUSTY ENE WINDS POSSIBLE LATE SUN INTO MON WITH
GUSTS NEAR 30 KT POSSIBLE AT HYA/FMH/ACK.

MVFR CIGS MON THROUGH TUE WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS. PERIODS OF VFR
CONDITIONS POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY BY WED.

&&

.MARINE...
ONE LOW PRESSURE OVER EAST OF THE WATERS TONIGHT...WITH ANOTHER LOW
PRESSURE ARRIVE SATURDAY NIGHT, NOT EXPECTING WINDS TO GET VERY
STRONG DURING THIS TIME.  LINGERING SEAS OF 3-6 FT ACROSS THE OUTER
WATERS EXPECTED THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT DUE TO SOUTHEAST SWELLS. SEAS
EXPECTED TO DIMINISH ACROSS BLOCK ISLAND AND RHODE ISLAND SOUNDS
EARLY THIS EVENING.

OUTLOOK /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

SUNDAY AND MONDAY...SLOW MOVING LOW PRESSURE MOVES TO A POSITION WELL
SOUTH OF NANTUCKET SUNDAY. THE LOW WILL THEN MEANDER THERE BEFORE
WEAKENING AND MOVING NORTHWARD MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY. SEAS
WILL GRADUALLY BUILD IN RESPONSE TO THE SLOW MOVEMENT OF THE LOW AND
IT/S ASSOCIATED PRESSURE GRADIENT. AT THIS TIME...THE TRACK AND
STRENGTH OF THE LOW ARE A BIT UNCERTAIN...BUT THE LONG
EASTERLY/NORTHEASTERLY FETCH OF WIND SHOULD ALLOW OUTER WATER SEAS TO
BUILD TO AT LEAST 8 FEET BY EARLY MONDAY...AND QUITE POSSIBLY UP TO
15 FEET. WINDS ON MOST ZONES SHOULD INCREASE TO 20 TO 30 KT.

SEAS AND WINDS BEGIN TO SUBSIDE LATER TUESDAY AND CERTAINLY INTO
WEDNESDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
A COMPLEX PATTERN IS EMERGING THIS WEEKEND. MAINLY TRIBUTARIES OF THE
MAINSTEM RIVERS ARE RUNNING SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN NORMAL. RECENT
RAINFALL HAS ALSO HELPED TO SATURATE THE GROUND...WHICH WOULD RESULT
IN QUICKER RUNOFF. THIS IS THE MAIN CONCERN FOR LATER THIS WEEKEND...
ALONG WITH POSSIBLE URBAN AND POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING.

THE BIG QUESTION WILL BE WHERE THE AXIS OF HEAVIER RAINFALL SETS UP
SATURDAY AFTERNOON INTO SATURDAY NIGHT. GIVEN THE POTENTIAL FOR 1 TO
3 INCHES OF RAIN IN A RELATIVELY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME...EVEN WITH
THIS UNCERTAINTY...THINK IT IS BEST TO GO WITH A FLOOD WATCH.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
NO ISSUES IN SHORT TERM. HOWEVER...APPROACHING SPRING TIDE CYCLE
LATER THIS WEEKEND INTO NEXT WEEK. ALL MEDIUM RANGE MODELS DEPICT
UPPER LOW AND SURFACE REFLECTION PASSING SLOWLY S OF NEW ENGLAND.
POTENTIAL FOR 20 TO 30 KT E FLOW...SURGE OF 1 TO 2 FT AND WAVES UP TO
AT LEAST 10 FT JUST OFFSHORE. THIS COULD BRING A RISK OF AT LEAST
MINOR COASTAL FLOODING ACROSS EASTERN MA FOR THE HIGH TIDE CYCLES SUN
NIGHT THROUGH MON NIGHT OR TUE NIGHT.
