AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1044 PM EST THU NOV 5 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPING WELL SE OF NANTUCKET WILL STEADILY INTENSIFY
IN ITS TREK TO THE S OF NOVA SCOTIA FRI. LARGE HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES
ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC COAST THIS WEEKEND...MOVING SLOWLY OUT TO SEA
EARLY NEXT WEEK. A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS NEW ENGLAND TUE NIGHT AND
WED MORNING. A LOW PRESSURE CENTER MAY MOVE ALONG THIS FRONT AND
ENHANCE RAINFALL. STRONG NW WINDS AND COLDER TEMPERATURES WILL FOLLOW
WED AFTERNOON AND THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
A BATCH OF SHOWERS WAS CROSSING CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS...CONNECTICUT
AND RHODE ISLAND THIS EVENING. A STRONG UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE
AND CONDITIONALLY UNSTABLE AIR ALOFT WAS CONTRIBUTING TO SHOWERY
PRECIPITATION. AN INVERTED TROUGH WAS ALSO ENHANCING LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE CONVERGENCE.

VERTICAL CROSS SECTIONS FOR WESTERN AND CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS AND
NORTHERN CONNECTICUT AND NORTHERN RHODE ISLAND INDICATE EXCELLENT
SNOW GROWTH...PARTICULARLY PRIOR TO 1 OR 2 AM. ANY SNOW THAT FALLS
WILL BE WET AND IN MOST LOCATIONS NOT ACCUMULATE.

HOWEVER...HIGHER ELEVATIONS HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR UP TO AN INCH OF
WET SNOW ON THE GROUND.

HAVE ADJUSTED POPS AND SKY COVER THIS EVENING AS THE BATCH OF
PRECIPITATION IS MAKING STEADY PROGRESS SOUTHEASTWARD.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT.
BRISK NORTHWEST FLOW EXPECTED DURING THE DAY FRIDAY WHILE THE
PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN THE HIGH TO THE SOUTHWEST AND THE LOW TO
THE EAST RELAXES.  CLEARING SKIES EXPECTED THROUGH THE DAY WITH HIGH
TEMPERATURES IN THE 40S /A GOOD 5 TO 10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL/.
CLEAR SKIES OVERNIGHT WILL AID IN RADIATIONAL COOLING WITH LOWS
DROPPING DOWN INTO THE 20S EXCEPT FOR MID 30S ON THE COAST AND IN
THE URBAN CENTERS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
A FEW ITEMS OF INTEREST FOR THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST INCLUDE HOW
MILD TEMPERATURES MAY GET OVER THE WEEKEND AND NATURE OF FRONTAL
PASSAGE AND POSSIBLE LOW PRES CENTER TUE NIGHT INTO WED MORNING
FOLLOWED BY PROBABLE FAIRLY STRONG NW WINDS.

SAT THRU MON LOOKS DRY WITH NEAR TO ABOVE NORMAL GRIDS. ALTHOUGH NOT
FULL SUNSHINE...ANTICIPATE ENOUGH COMBINED WITH FAIRLY SIGNIFICANTLY
WARM AIR ADVECTION AND W OR WSW FLOW TO RAISE TEMPS A LITTLE HIGHER
THAN GUIDANCE FOR MAX TEMPS SAT...SUN AND MON. GUIDANCE MIN TEMPS
LOOK OK. PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES WILL ALLOW AT PARTIAL RADIATIONAL
COOLING SAT AND SUN NIGHTS.

THE 12Z MODEL RUNS SUGGEST TUE NIGHT INTO WED MORNING MAY BE WETTER
THAN MOST PRIOR RUNS WOULD HAVE LED ONE TO BELIEVE. THE
GEM...GFS...AND UKMET ALL SHOW LOW PRES FORMATION ALONG THE FRONT AS
PHASING TRIES TO TAKE PLACE BETWEEN NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN STREAM
ENERGY. THE ECMWF ONLY SHOWS FRONTAL PASSAGE BUT LOOKING WETTER. ALL
12Z MEDIUM RANGE MODELS...INCLUDING THE ECMWF...ENTRAIN
TROPICAL/SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE INTO NEW ENGLAND FROM THE SOUTHERN
STREAM...VERY LIKELY ASSOCIATED WITH THE REMNANTS OF IDA. FOR
NOW...INTRODUCED CHANCE POPS AROUND 40 PERCENT BUT SUSPECT THOSE
NUMBERS WILL BE INCREASED AS WE GET CLOSER TO THE TIME FRAME. QPF
MAY END UP BEING FAIRLY SIGNIFICANT GIVEN THE INFLUX OF
MOISTURE...AND ESPECIALLY SO IF UKMET AND GEM SOLUTIONS HAVE THE
RIGHT HANDLE.

ALL MODELS SHOW RATHER STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION WED BEHIND COLD
FRONT AND POSSIBLY DEEPENING SURFACE LOW PRES OVER CANADIAN
MARITIMES ON WED. NW WINDS MAY BE FAIRLY STRONG AND TEMPERATURES IN
HIGHER TERRAIN ACROSS NW ZONES MAY STRUGGLE TO RISE MUCH IN FACE OF
COLD AIR ADVECTION.

DISPARITIES FROM MODEL TO MODEL AND RUN TO RUN TOWARD END OF NEXT
WEEK. LOOKS LIKE THERE MAY BE A S/W TROF AND SURFACE COLD FRONTAL
PASSAGE FRI NIGHT BUT CONFIDENCE NOT REAL HIGH AS TO PRECIPITATION
POTENTIAL.

&&

.AVIATION /04Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THROUGH TONIGHT...VFR CEILINGS WITH SCT LIGHT SHOWERS CAUSING PATCHES
MVFR/IFR CIGS. ISOLATED THUNDER POSSIBLE THROUGH 08Z PRIMARILY ALONG
A ORH-PVD-MVY LINE. NW SFC WIND GUSTS TO 30 KT POSSIBLE AFT 04Z W
TERMINALS AND 08Z E TERMINALS.

FRIDAY...VFR. NNW WIND GUSTS 22-32 KTS THROUGHOUT....ESPECIALLY
MIDDAY/AFTN. SC CIGS BETWEEN 3000 AND 4500 FT EXPECTED BETWEEN 15Z
AND 20Z. ONE EXCEPTION... KFMH KHYA AND KACK MAY SEE A BRIEF PERIOD OF
MVFR CONDS IN SHOWERS DURING MID OR LATE FRI MORNING AS THE SHOWERS
OCCURRING THROUGHOUT MAINE AND E NH THIS AFTERNOON...SHIFT FROM A NNE
MOVEMENT TO A SSW MOVEMENT THEN S IN THE REORIENTING MID LVL FLOW AS
THE SHARP TROF ALOFT PASSES E OF OUR LONGITUDE.

FRI NIGHT...GENERALLY VFR.

OUTLOOK /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...

GENERALLY VFR...EXCEPT ISOLATED IFR IN VALLEY FOG DURING THE EARLY
MORNING HOURS EACH NIGHT.

.MARINE...
SEAS AND WINDS GRADUALLY INCREASE THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS...

MORNING. A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL BE CONTINUED FOR ALL OF THE
COASTAL WATERS THROUGH FRIDAY. NORTHWEST WINDS WILL GENERALLY GUST
BETWEEN 25 AND 30 KTS WITH OCCASIONAL GUSTS TO 35 KTS POSSIBLE. SEAS
WILL INCREASE TO 5 TO 9 FEET FRIDAY. WINDS WILL DIMINISH BY FRIDAY
EVENING THOUGH 5 TO 6 FOOT SEAS WILL LINGER THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT ON
THE EASTERN OUTER WATERS.

THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY MAY NEED TO BE UPGRADED TO A GLW ACROSS THE
EASTERN WATERS FRIDAY...PENDING FURTHER REVIEW OF 00Z GUIDANCE.

OUTLOOK /SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
GRADUALLY SUBSIDING SEAS SAT. NO OTHER SIGNIFICANT WIND...SEAS OR
VSBY ISSUES THRU MON.

POTENTIAL NW GALE EPISODE MID WEEK BEHIND COLD FRONT PASSAGE AND
POSSIBLY DEVELOPING LOW OVER THE MARITIMES.
