AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1258 PM EDT SAT JUN 20 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE ACROSS NEW ENGLAND TODAY.
STRENGTHENING LOW PRESSURE WILL TRACK SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND TONIGHT
AND THEN MEANDER SOUTHEAST OF CAPE COD FROM SUNDAY INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK. RAIN ASSOCIATED WITH THIS LOW WILL IMPACT SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
AT TIMES FROM TONIGHT INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. THIS LOW WILL WEAKEN AND
BEGIN TO EXIT THE REGION MID WEEK FOLLOWED BY DRIER AND WARMER
WEATHER LATE IN THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 8 PM THIS EVENING/...
ADJUSTMENTS TO THE BASICALLY ON TRACK 4AM FCST HAVE BEEN CONSTANTLY
MADE THIS MORNING.

WE SAW THE VERY WET GFS BUT THINKING THAT THE AXIS OF HEAVIEST RAIN
IS S HFD COUNTY SOUTHWARD AND MAY CLIP KWLY. FLOOD WATCH CONTD AS
WRITTEN DURING MIDDAY.  REASSESSING THIS AFTN.

NO CHG IN THE SRF FOR TODAY AS PER MID MORNING CHECK.

6 HR QPF VERIFICATION ENDING 12Z...IN MY OPINION...THE 00Z OP ECMWF/RGEM
PERFORMED THE BEST WHEN LOOKING AT ALL THE AVBL MODELS FOR QPF ENDING
12Z /NONE ARE NEAR PERFECT/. THE TREND OF MODELS FORCING FAR TOO HEAVY
QPF TOO FAR NORTH IN THE COOL AIR CONTINUES. WE KEEP THIS IN MIND
AS THE 12Z MODEL RUNS ARRIVE. FFG AND SREF/GEFS OUTPUT SUGGEST NO FLOODING
IN THROUGH 12Z SUNDAY AND WE THINK THE 12Z GFS IS TOO FAR NORTH.
WE THINK THE GGEM IS ON BOARD. NO OTHER FFA CHANGES BEFORE 4PM.

THE MODELS ARE SLOWLY COMING INTO BETTER AGREEMENT ON THE OVERALL
SYNOPTIC PATTERN.  STILL LEANING TOWARDS A NAM/ECMWF SOLUTION FOR
PRECIPITATION.  THIS SOLUTION WILL KEEP MOST OF THE PRECIPITATION
OUT OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND UNTIL LATE THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING.
THEREFORE...HAVE KEPT POPS OUT OF THE FORECAST UNTIL ABOUT 4 PM.

&&

.SHORT TERM /8 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM SUNDAY/...
AS STATED ABOVE...THE MODELS ARE COMING CLOSER TO A CONSENSUS ON THE
PATH OF BOTH THE UPPER LOW AND THE SURFACE REFLECTION.  WITH THE GFS
CONTINUING TO BE AN OUTLIER /ALBEIT A CLOSER OUTLIER THAN
PREVIOUSLY/...HAVE GONE WITH A NAM/ECMWF SOLUTION.  THIS SOLUTION
MOVES THE STACKED LOW SOUTHEAST THROUGH NYC THEN TAKING AN EASTWARD
TRACK SOUTH OF LONG ISLAND.  THE TRACK IS A LITTLE FURTHER SOUTH
THAN PREVIOUS DAYS RUNS WHICH WILL LEAD TO THE BAND OF HEAVIEST
PRECIP MOVING A BIT FURTHER SOUTHWARD AS WELL.

HAVE CHANCE POPS MOVING INTO NORTHERN CONNECTICUT LATE THIS
AFTERNOON INCREASING TO CATEGORICAL BY LATE THIS EVENING.  RAIN WILL
OVERSPREAD THE AREA FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST WITH THE LOWEST POPS
IN SOUTHEASTERN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND NORTHEASTERN MASSACHUSETTS.  USED
HPC QPF /ALSO A BLEND OF THE NAM AND ECMWF/ IN THE GRIDS WHICH HAS
THE HIGHEST QPF AMOUNTS ACROSS CONNECTICUT...RHODE ISLAND...AND
SOUTHEASTERN MASSACHUSETTS.  THERE IS STILL THE POSSIBILITY OF HEAVY
RAINFALL WITH PWAT VALUES NEARING TWICE THAT OF NORMAL.  HOWEVER...
GIVEN THE SHORTER DURATION OF HEAVY RAINFALL AND THE FOCUS OF THAT
RAINFALL ACROSS THE SOUTHERN ZONES...HAVE TRIMMED THE FLOOD WATCH.
LOOK FOR MORE INFORMATION IN THE HYDROLOGY SECTION.

OTHERWISE...EXPECT LOW CLOUDS AND PATCHY FOG TO ACCOMPANY THE RAIN
OVERNIGHT.  LOW TEMPERATURES WILL BE MILD THANKS TO THE HIGHER
DEWPOINTS ACROSS THE AREA.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
*** PROLONG PERIOD OF WET WEATHER ALONG WITH COOLER THAN NORMAL
 TEMPERATURES EXPECTED SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY ***

00Z MODELS HAVE FINALLY COME INTO BETTER AGREEMENT REGARDING THE
AMPLITUDE AND POSITION OF AN ANOMALOUS CLOSED LOW TO IMPACT THE
REGION EARLY THIS PERIOD. MODELS AGREE ON THE SYNOPTIC SCALE FLOW
AND MANY OF THE MESOSCALE DETAILS...HOWEVER THE GFS DIFFERS
SIGNIFICANTLY ON QPF. APPEARS THE GFS /FOR WHATEVER REASON/ WRAPS ITS
DRY SLOT MUCH FARTHER NORTHWARD /INTO CT-RI-SE MA/ THAN ANY OF THE OTHER
00Z MODEL GUIDANCE. OBVIOUSLY THIS IMPACTS INSTABILITY ALOFT ALONG
WITH CORRESPONDING QPF.

ALL OTHER MODEL GUID KEEPS DRY SLOT OFFSHORE AND THIS MAKES SENSE
GIVEN THE MID LEVEL FLOW IS NW TO SE AND MID LEVEL LOW TRACKS SW OF
NEW ENGLAND...WHICH WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO CIRCULATE DRY SLOT THIS FAR
NORTH. THEREFORE WE FOLLOWED A NON GFS SOLUTION FOR THIS FORECAST
PERIOD. THIS TRANSLATES TO HIGHEST POPS SUNDAY ACROSS WESTERN
MA/CT/RI AND SOUTHEAST MA. AS THE DAY PROGRESSES AND THE MID LEVEL
LOW DIGS SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND...MID LEVEL DRY AIR ADVECTS SOUTHWEST
FROM NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. THIS WILL BRING AN END TO THE STEADY RAINS
LATE IN THE DAY SUNDAY FROM NE TO SW. CLOUDS WILL DOMINATE AS TIME
SECTIONS INDICATE AN ABUNDANCE OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE. HOWEVER WITH
DRIER AIR ALOFT NOT EXPECTING ANY APPRECIABLE RAINFALL DURING THE
AFTERNOON. ALTHOUGH AREAS OF DRIZZLE ARE POSSIBLE.

ALL MODEL GUID INDICATES CLOSED LOW WILL BE SOUTHEAST OF 40N/70W MON
BUT BEGINNING TO PIVOT NORTHWEST BACK TOWARD SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND MON
NIGHT AND TUE. SO CHANCES FOR STEADY RAINS WILL INCREASE LATER MON
AND ESPECIALLY TUE WITH HIGHEST POPS ACROSS EASTERN MA. BY WED MODELS
SUGGEST VERTICALLY STACKED LOW OVER EAST COASTAL NEW ENGLAND WILL
BEGIN TO FILL AND WEAKEN. SO SHOWERS SHOULD BE LESS NUMEROUS DURING
MID WEEK. BY THU GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT /ESPECIALLY AT THIS TIME RANGE/
THAT CLOSED LOW BECOMES AN OPEN WAVE AND BEGINS TO EJECT SEAWARD WITH
WEATHER LIKELY IMPROVING SIGNIFICANTLY WITH DRIER CONDITIONS AND
WARMER TEMPS. ANOTHER NORTHERN STREAM SHORT WAVE TROF AND ITS
ATTENDING COLD FRONT MAY IMPACT THE AREA FRI.

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

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
PRIMARY: MVFR CIGS HERE AND THERE IN THE INTERIOR OF SNE SHOULD
SLOWLY LIFT DURING THE AFTN AS OCCASIONALLY THICK CI FLIES EASTWARD.
LIFR FOG/ST S COAST RI SEEMS TO BER SLOWLY SHRINKING - LIFTING.

LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS WILL RETURN IN
RAIN AND FOG STARTING IN THE CONNECTICUT RIVER VALLEY /BDL AND BAF/
AND MOVING IN TO THE NORTHEAST THROUGH THE NIGHT.

OUTLOOK /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

WIDESPREAD IFR/MVFR LIKELY SUNDAY THROUGH TUE IN SHOWERS. NE WINDS
MAY GUSTS TO 35 DURING THIS TIME ESPECIALLY AT BOS/HYA/FMH/ACK AND
PVD. SOME IMPROVEMENT WEDNESDAY TO MVFR ALONG WITH A DIMINISHING WIND.

&&

.MARINE...
FOUR TO SEVEN FOOT SWELL IS HELPING KEEP SEAS ABOVE 5 FEET ON THE
OUTER WATERS. A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT THROUGH 09Z TONIGHT
FOR THAT AREA. WINDS WILL TURN SSE TODAY THEN TO THE EAST INCREASING
TO AROUND 20 KNOTS LATE TONIGHT AS A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES OFF
THE NY/NJ COAST AND MOVES SOUTH OF LONG ISLAND. SURPRISING TO SEE 8
FT SLY SWELL AT 44018 THIS MORNING.

OUTLOOK /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

HOISTED A GALE WATCH FOR ALL WATERS SUN AND SUN NIGHT AS AN ANOMALOUS
OCEAN STORM DEVELOPS SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND. THE RISK FOR NE GALES MAY
LINGER INTO MON NIGHT OR TUE. THIS STORM WILL ALSO BE ACCOMPANIED BY
DANGEROUS SEAS OF AROUND 15 KT. THE OCEAN LOW WILL BEGIN TO WEAKEN
DURING MIDWEEK.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
FFG: TO DEVELOP FLOODING... WE WILL NEED AT LEAST 2.7 INCHES OF RAIN
IN 24 HOURS IN OUR MOST VULNERABLE CT RVR VALLEY REGION AND THAT IS
NOT LIKELY BEFORE 12Z SUNDAY. DONT THINK FLOODING WILL OCCUR TONIGHT
UNLESS THE 12Z OP GFS IS CORRECT. THE 12Z UK/RGEM/GGEM ALL ARE FURTHER
SW INTO THE MORE UNSTABLE AIR AND I BLV THINKING SOUTH IS THE MORE
LIKELY SCENARIO AS PER MORNING VERIFICATION.

PERIODS OF HEAVY RAINFALL ARE POSSIBLE STARTING TONIGHT AND CONTINUING
THROUGH THE FIRST PART OF THE WEEK IN A COMPLEX PATTERN /TROUGH OF WARM
AIR ALOFT - TROWAL DEVELOPMENT - COMMA HEAD - HIGH PRECIPITABLE WATER
-PWAT AND EVENTUAL MODEL UNDERESTIMATE FOR LATE SUN THRU TUE/. MAIN
TRIBUTARIES OF THE MAINSTEM RIVERS ARE RUNNING SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER
THAN NORMAL. RECENT RAINFALL HAS HELPED INCREASE MORE RAPID RUNOFF.
THIS SETS UP A POTENTIAL FOR URBAN AND POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING AS WELL
AS RIVER FLOODING.

THE MODELS HAVE COME INTO MORE OF AN AGREEMENT ON THE LOCATION OF
THE HEAVIER RAINFALL FOR THE FIRST PERIOD OF RAIN TONIGHT INTO
SUNDAY AS DETAILED IN THE SHORT TERM SECTION ABOVE.  THE HEAVIEST
RAINFALL LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE FROM CONNECTICUT ACROSS TO RHODE
ISLAND AND SOUTHEASTERN MASSACHUSETTS.  RAINFALL IN THIS AREAS IS
PREDICTED TO BE IN THE ONE TO TWO INCH RANGE.  ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN
NEW HAMPSHIRE AND NORTHEASTERN MASS WE ARE EXPECTING ANY HEAVY
RAINFALL TO BE SHORT LIVED...THEN QUICKLY CHANGE OVER TO A LIGHT
RAIN OR DRIZZLE.  THUS...HAVE TRIMMED THESE ZONES OUT OF THE FLOOD
WATCH FOR TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING AT THIS TIME.

THE NEXT SLUG OF RAINFALL WILL ARRIVE MONDAY AND TUESDAY AND THE
FOCUS FOR HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE ACROSS EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS.  A
NEW FLOOD WATCH MAY NEED TO BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS TIME FRAME AS IT
NEARS AND MODELS BECOME CLEARER.

&&

.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 25 TO 35 KT NE WINDS...SURGE OF 1 TO 2 FT AND WAVES UP
TO 15 FT JUST OFFSHORE THIS WILL BRING A LOW RISK OF MINOR COASTAL
FLOODING ACROSS EASTERN MA FOR THE HIGH TIDE CYCLES SUN NIGHT. MON
NIGHT THE RISK IS HIGHER WITH MINOR COASTAL FLOODING LIKELY WITH A
LOW RISK OF MODERATE COASTAL FLOODING. STAY TUNED TO LATER FORECAST
AND DISCUSSIONS REGARDING THIS ANOMALOUS OCEAN STORM.
