AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1053 AM EST FRI NOV 13 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE MARITIMES THROUGH TONIGHT. STRONG LOW
PRESSURE...THE REMNANTS OF IDA...WILL LINGER ALONG THE NORTH CAROLINA
COAST TODAY...THEN MOVE SLOWLY EAST. RAIN WILL OVERSPREAD OUR AREA
LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING WHILE STRONG WINDS AFFECT COASTAL
AREAS. THE STORM WEAKENS AND DEPARTS SUNDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE
PROVIDING DRY WEATHER INTO MIDWEEK WITH TEMPERATURES NEAR NORMAL.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
DELAYED THE NORTHWARD PUSH OF SHOWERS THIS AFTERNOON...BUT SOME LEGACY
PRODUCTS DONT REFLECT THE DELAY VERY WELL. NEVERTHELESS.... SUGGEST
USING 0.10 ON GFS FOR FIRST MEASURABLE. LOOKS LIKE ITS HEADED WNW
TODAY...THEN N TONIGHT.

WIND ADVY ON THE ISLANDS CONTD THO NO VERIFICATION THROUGH 13Z.

TEMPERATURES AND DEWPOINTS ARE A BLEND OF MOS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SATURDAY/...
CONSIDERING HIGH WIND WATCH AND COASTAL FLOOD ADVY FOR SATURDAY MORNING.

SUSTAINED WINDS MAY EXCEED 40 MPH IN THE 07Z-19Z TIME FRAME CAPE COD...
ACK AND MVY...PER NAM...BUT HOLDING OFF TILL MORE CONFIRMATION FROM
THE 12Z GFS.

WE HAVE RERUN SURGE AND TOTAL WATER LVL AND BLV HAVE GOOD OUTPUT FOR
A COASTAL FLOOD ADVY FOR SATURDAY KACK...SCITUATE TO GLOUCESTER. 14Z
SURGE ONLY .3 AT BOS AND .6 AT ACK...BOTH WILL INCREASE A HALF A FOOT
OR SO TOMORROW. NOT EXPECTING WIDESPREAD MDT EVENT BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE.

BLV WE HAVE A GOOD CASE FOR TROWAL HEAVY RAIN EVENT PTN OF E MASS
SATURDAY...WITH COASTAL FRONT LIFT...AXIS OF WARM WET UNSTABLE AIR
ALOFT. ISO THUNDER POSSIBLE E MASS LATE SAT OR SAT EVE.

STRONG LOW LEVEL EAST WINDS...50 TO 60 KNOTS... CREATE GOOD
ISENTROPIC LIFT AND SUPPLY PLENTY OF MOISTURE FOR PRECIP TONIGHT
THROUGH SATURDAY. SOUTHERN SECTIONS HAVE THESE FACTORS THROUGH THE
PERIOD...NORTH OF THE MASS PIKE THESE FACTORS DEVELOP EARLY TONIGHT
AND CONTINUE THROUGH SATURDAY. IMPRESSIVE PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES
AT OR ABOVE 1.5 INCHES MOVE ACROSS RI AND EASTERN MASS ON SATURDAY.
WILL HAVE CATEGORICAL POPS AND FORECAST RAINFALL IN THE 1-2 INCH
RANGE. OROGRAPHICALLY FAVORED SPOTS COULD GET MORE THEN 2 INCHES.

50 TO 65 KNOTS OF EAST WIND AT 950 TO 850 MB MAY CLIP THE SOUTH COAST
/ESPECIALLY CAPE COD/ TONIGHT AND SATURDAY. LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES
WILL BE AROUND 1 DEGREE PER KM...NOT VERY FAVORABLE FOR MIXING. IT
IS POSSIBLE SOME OF THIS WIND MAY BE DRAGGED TO THE SURFACE BY
RAIN...MAYBE 50-60 PERCENT. SO GUSTS IN THE MID AND UPPER 30S OF
KNOTS ARE VERY POSSIBLE...WITH WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA OF 40 KNOT
GUSTS ON THE EDGE OF LIKELIHOOD. THE MAIN PERIOD OF CONCERN FOR THE
SOUTH COAST WOULD BE LATE TONIGHT AND SATURDAY. WE WILL CONTINUE THE
WIND ADVISORY FOR THE ISLANDS WHERE THE CHANCES ARE HIGHER...BUT HOLD
OFF ON AN ADVISORY FOR THE SOUTH COAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
LOW PRESSURE THAT HAS BEEN MEANDERING OFF THE MID ATLANTIC AND
NORTHEAST COAST WILL LOSE IT/S GRIP ON THE REGION AT THE BEGINNING OF
THE LONG TERM PERIOD. WE WILL STILL HAVE HIGH POPS GOING FOR SATURDAY
NIGHT AS ANOMALOUS EASTERLY LOW LEVEL JET CONTINUES TO PUMP IN HIGHER
PWATS FROM THE EAST. A PERIOD OF HEAVY SHOWERS POSSIBLE AS TROWAL-
LIKE FEATURE IS ONLY SLOW TO MOVE AWAY. WE HAVE A SLIGHT CHANCE OF
THUNDER GOING SATURDAY NIGHT AS WELL...ESPECIALLY ACROSS EASTERN
PORTIONS OF THE CWA WHERE ELEVATED INSTABILITY LOOKS TO BE MOST
ROBUST.

HIGH PRESSURE GRADUALLY BUILDS BACK INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND ON
SUNDAY OFFERING IMPROVING CONDITIONS...INCLUDING DRIER WEATHER.

OTHERWISE...HIGH PRESSURE CONTROLS OUR WEATHER FOR THE REST OF THE
LONG TERM PERIOD WITH DRY WEATHER AND TEMPERATURES AROUND NORMAL IF
NOT SLIGHTLY ABOVE.

&&

.AVIATION /16Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
WIDESPREAD MVFR CIGS WILL PERSIST THIS AFTN AND ALL TAFS AMENDED FOR
THIS AND A SLIGHT DELAY IN RAIN. CONFIDENCE AVG OR ABV AVG ON TAFS
AS AMENDED AROUND 15Z. GUSTS INCREASE 3 KTS FROM 15Z VALUES THIS
AFTN. NEAR 35 KTS CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS.

LLWS PRODUCT IN OUR AVN MATRIX NOT FCSTG LLWS AND NONE IN THE TAFS
ATTM.

LATE TODAY AND TONIGHT...CIGS AND VSBYS BECOME MVFR FROM SOUTH TO
NORTH...ACK WILL BE THE FIRST AFFECTED AND MHT THE LAST. MVFR/IFR
CIGS OVERNIGHT WITH AREAS OF IFR VSBYS IN RAIN AND FOG. STRONG EAST
WINDS OF 50-60 KNOTS AT 2000 FEET WILL SHIFT NORTH ACROSS THE SOUTH
COAST. THIS WILL MEAN LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR CONCERNS FOR FMH-HYA-ACK
AND MAY MEAN LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR AT PVD LATE AT NIGHT. SUSTAINED
WIND AT KACK TONIGHT MAY REACH 35 KTS WITH GUST ONLY 43 KTS DUE TO
STABILIZING BL...YET BL SUSTAINED WIND IS BECOMING LARGE AFTER 06Z
TONIGHT.

SATURDAY...MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAY IN RAIN AND
FOG. LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR CONCERNS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAY AT
FMH-HYA-ACK WITH A LOWER POTENTIAL FOR PVD AND BOS.

OUTLOOK /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...

SAT NIGHT...WIDESPREAD IFR WITH LLWS POSSIBLE. LOW PROB OF
THUNDER...ESPECIALLY EASTERN MASS.

SUN...EARLY MORNING IFR CONDS LIKELY IMPROVING TO MVFR/VFR BY
AFTERNOON...PERHAPS SLOWER TO CLEAR ON THE CAPE AND NANTUCKET.

MON AND TUE...VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
GALE IN PROGRESS.

LOW LEVEL WINDS ALOFT OF 50 TO 60 KNOTS ARE EXPECTED OVER THE
SOUTHERN WATERS TODAY...ROUGHLY 50-60 PERCENT OF THAT WIND MAY GET
PULLED TO THE SURFACE BRINGING CONTINUED SUPPORT FOR GALES.

SEAS ARE UP TO 15 FEET AT BUOY 017...AND TO 18 FEET AT BUOY 008.
EXPECT THIS TO SPREAD NORTH TODAY AND TONIGHT. WAVEWATCH FORECASTS 10
TO 15 FEET IN THE SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST OUTER WATERS...THIS IS REALISTIC
AND MAY UNDERESTIMATE BY A FOOT OR TWO. THE EAST FETCH SHOULD BRING
ROUGH SEAS INTO NANTUCKET SOUND AS WELL...7-8 FEET IS REASONABLE
TONIGHT AND SATURDAY.

OUTLOOK /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...

AS FAR AS WINDS GO...ANY GALES WILL BE LONG GONE BY SATURDAY NIGHT.
HOWEVER...WITH STRONG HIGH PRESSURE MOVING IN LATE MONDAY AND
TUESDAY...NORTHEAST WINDS WILL ONCE AGAIN INCREASE WELL INTO SCA
LEVELS.

SEAS WILL REMAIN HIGH...ESPECIALLY ON THE OCEAN WATERS...THROUGH THE
PERIOD AS EFFECTS FROM DEPARTING OCEAN STORM ARE SLOW TO LOSE THEIR
GRIP ON THE WATERS.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES OF 1.5 INCHES ARE FORECAST TO MOVE ACROSS
RI AND EASTERN MASS SATURDAY. HIGHEST RAINFALL VALUES SHOULD BE IN
THIS AREA. BY THE TIME WE GET TO THE RAIN...THE SYSTEM SHOULD BE
SUFFICIENTLY PROGRESSIVE TO PREVENT A LONG DURATION RAIN. EXPECTING
AMOUNTS IN THE 1 TO 2 INCH RANGE. THIS IS LESS THAN EVEN THE 1 HOUR
FLOOD VALUES SO WIDESPREAD FLOODING IS NOT EXPECTED. ALL THE
SAME...THIS MOISTURE COMES FROM THE REMNANTS OF A TROPICAL SYSTEM.
LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS COULD STILL CAUSE LOCAL POOR DRAINAGE
FLOODING...BEST CHANCE OF THIS WOULD BE IN RI AND EASTERN MASS.

GFS 12Z/13 SIGNAL IS VERY LARGE ON TROWAL. EXPECTING 3 INCH SPOT AMTS
SOMEWHERE IN RI OR SE MASS.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
RISK OF MINOR COASTAL FLOODING WITH SAT MORNING HIGH TIDE FOR
EASTERN MA SHORELINE. GFS/ET STORM SURGE GUID ONLY PROJECTING A
SURGE OF 0.4 TO 0.6 FEET AT BOSTON AND 1.0 AT NANTUCKET. THE MODEL
HAS SO FAR VERIFIED TOO LOW AND PAST EVENTS HAVE SHOWN DOUBLING THE
MODEL OUTPUT IS A GOOD ESTIMATE OF WHAT TO EXPECT. THEREFORE
EXPECTING A SURGE OF 0.8 FT TO 1.2 FT FOR THE SAT MORNING HIGH TIDE
CYCLE...POSSIBLY 1.5 TO 2 FEET ALONG THE OUTER CAPE.

THIS WILL RESULT IN MOST LOCATIONS ABOUT 1-1.5 FT BELOW FLOOD STAGE
SAT MORNING. HOWEVER VERY LARGE SEAS /15-20 FT/ JUST OFFSHORE...
ESPECIALLY ACROSS CAPE COD AND NANTUCKET WILL LIKELY RESULT IN WAVES
BREAKING OVER SEAWALLS AND OTHER COASTAL BARRIERS YIELDING MINOR
COASTAL FLOODING. STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY ON THE MAGNITUDE OF THE WIND
AND RESULTING SURGE AS WELL AS TIME RANGE HERE /SAT MORNING/. AS A
RESULT WILL HOLD OFF ON ANY WATCH OR ADVISORY FOR NOW.

JUST AS SIGNIFICANT OR PERHAPS MORE OF AN ISSUE WILL BE BEACH
EROSION GIVEN THE LONG DURATION OF LARGE WAVES POUNDING THE EASTERN
MA SHORELINE. AS THE ASTRONOMICAL TIDES AND SURGE INCREASE TODAY AND
SAT...LARGE BREAKING WAVES/WAVE RUNUP WILL OCCUR FARTHER UP BEACHES
AND THE SHORELINE...POSSIBLY RESULTING IN SIGNIFICANT BEACH EROSION
WITH SAT MORNING HIGH TIDE.
