AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
933 PM EDT SAT OCT 10 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
HI PRES OVER THE MID WEST WILL MOVE E TO NEW ENGLAND ON MON. A DRY
SECONDARY COLD FRONT WILL PASS NW TO SE ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
ON SUN BRINGING IN A REINFORCING SHOT OF COLD AIR. FROST LIKELY IN
MANY NW VALLEYS TONIGHT AND MORE WIDESPREAD ACROSS THE REGION SUN
NIGHT. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION ON
TUESDAY...FOLLOWED BY A CHILLY AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE FOR WEDNESDAY
AND THURSDAY. A COASTAL STORM MAY AFFECT THE REGION FRI AND FRI NIGHT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
THE PREVIOUS FORECAST IS PRETTY MUCH ON TRACK.  JUST SOME THIN HIGH
CLOUDS WERE STREAMING ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND...BUT LIGHT WINDS
AND THE RELATIVELY DRY AIR WILL ALLOW FOR A GOOD NIGHT OF
RADIATIONAL COOLING.  THE FROST ADVISORY CONTINUES FOR THE EAST
SLOPES OF THE BERKSHIRES...NORTHWEST MA...AS WELL AS SOUTHWEST NH
WHERE LOWS SHOULD BOTTOM OUT IN THE LOWER TO MID 30S.  PATCHY FROST
IS EXPECTED ACROSS THE NORMALLY COLDER OUTLYING LOCATIONS ACROSS THE
REST OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND WHERE LOWS WILL BOTTOM OUT IN THE MID
TO UPPER 30S.  HOWEVER...IT DOES NOT APPEAR WIDESPREAD ENOUGH TO
WARRANT AN ADVISORY.  THE URBAN HEAT ISLANDS OF BOSTON/PROVIDENCE
SHOULD SEE LOWS FALL INTO THE LOWER TO MID 40S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
DRY SECONDARY COLD FRONT DEPICTED ON MODELS TO PASS NW TO SE ACROSS
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND ON SUN. THERE WILL PROBABLY BE SOME CLOUDS
ASSOCIATED WITH THIS FEATURE AND HAVE SHOWN ACCORDINGLY IN SKY COVER
GRIDS. BECOMING CLEAR NW TO SE DURING SUN AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING. TEMPERATURES AT 850 MB PROJECTED BY BOTH OPERATIONAL NAM
AND GFS TO DROP TO BETWEEN -2C AND -4C ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
SUN NIGHT AND BELIEVE A LARGE PORTION OF INTERIOR SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND WILL NEED A FROST ADVISORY FOR SUN NIGHT AS WINDS DIMINISH
UNDER CLEAR SKIES. A FREEZE WARNING MAY BE IN ORDER FOR A FEW OF OUR
NW MA AND SW NH ZONES. SUN NIGHT MAY SPELL THE END OF THE GROWING
SEASON FOR MANY PLANTS ACROSS A LARGE PORTION OF OUR AREA.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
MID TO LONG RANGE MODELS AND GLOBAL ENSEMBLES ARE IN FAIRLY GOOD
AGREEMENT EXCEPT IN THE DETAILS THROUGH DAY 4...THEN BEGIN TO
SIGNIFICANTLY DIVERGE DAYS 5 THROUGH 7.

MONDAY...COOL HIGH PRESSURE PREVAILS ACROSS THE AREA WITH HIGHS IN
THE 50S.

MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY...THE NEXT SHORT WAVE DISTURBANCE QUICKLY
APPROACHES FROM THE NORTHERN GREAT LAKES REGION. THE SURFACE LOW
TRACK IS A BIT QUICKER AND FURTHER SOUTH WITH THE LATEST OPERATIONAL
GFS AND UKMET WHILE THE NAM AND GGEM ARE SLOWER AND NORTH OF THE
FORECAST AREA. THIS SYSTEM SHOULD BE A QUICK MOVER AS THERE WILL BE A
140 KT JET STREAK TRACKING EAST THROUGH NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND TUESDAY.
A SOUTHERLY 40 TO 50 KT H85 JET WILL PROVIDE ISENTROPIC LIFT AHEAD OF
THE LOW.

IT CURRENTLY  APPEARS THE BEST CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION WILL
OCCUR ACROSS THE NORTHERN ZONES...WHERE THE BEST ISENTROPIC LIFT AND
DYNAMICAL FORCING MECHANISMS WILL BE FOUND NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT.
HAVE ADVERTISED LIKELY POPS NORTH AND CHANCE POPS SOUTH WITH THE
PRECIPITATION THREAT GENERALLY FOCUSED BETWEEN 09Z AND 15Z TUESDAY.

TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY...COOL HIGH PRESSURE COVERS THE AREA
WITH TEMPERATURES MORE TYPICAL OF MID NOVEMBER.

THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...SIGNIFICANT DISCREPANCIES DEVELOP
REGARDING THE EVOLUTION OF COASTAL LOW PRESSURE AND ITS TRACK.
THE MODELS APPEAR TO BE HAVING SOME DIFFICULTY DEFINING SEVERAL
SHORT WAVE DISTURBANCES IN THE MEAN FLOW. ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE FEATURES
A WIDE SPREAD IN THE AMPLITUDE OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH ALONG AND
EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. THE 12Z ECMWF IS CURRENTLY THE MOST
AMPLIFIED SOLUTION AND IS CURRENTLY AN OUTLIER...ALTHOUGH IT CANNOT
BE DISCOUNTED...IT WOULD BRING GALE FORCE WINDS WITH SEVERAL INCHES
OF RAINFALL ALONG THE COAST AND A SIGNIFICANT ELEVATION SNOW EVENT
ACROSS THE FAR NORTHWEST INTERIOR. MEANWHILE THE 12Z UKMET FEATURES
AN INSIDE RUNNER SOLUTION WHILE THE GLOBAL GEM IS MUCH FURTHER SOUTH.

CURRENTLY LEANED TOWARDS A 50/50 SOLUTION BETWEEN 12Z HPC GUIDANCE
AND THE 12Z OPERATIONAL GFS WHICH DEPICTS SEVERAL WEAKER WAVES OF
LOW PRESSURE TRACKING NORTHEAST JUST TO THE SOUTHEAST OF NEW
ENGLAND. THIS WOULD STILL BRING THE POTENTIAL FOR A SIGNIFICANT
PRECIPITATION EVENT ACROSS THE AREA...WITH A WINTRY MIX POSSIBLE
WELL INLAND...BUT AMOUNTS NOT CURRENTLY AS HEAVY AS THE 12Z ECMWF
ADVERTISES.

&&

.AVIATION /01Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
VFR CONDITIONS THROUGHOUT AREA OVERNIGHT. ISOLATED PATCHY GROUND FOG
LATE BUT IT SHOULD NOT REALLY AFFECT ANY OF OUR TERMINALS...EXCEPT
PERHAPS BAF FOR A BRIEF TIME.

SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT...VFR CONDITIONS THRUOUT AREA. NW
WIND MAY GUST 20 TO 25 KT FOR A TIME EXPOSED AREAS LATE SUN AFTERNOON
AND EARLY SUN EVENING.

OUTLOOK /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...

SUN...VFR. GUSTY WEST WINDS 20 TO 25 KNOTS DURING THE DAY.

MONDAY...VFR.

MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY...A PERIOD OF MVFR CEILINGS EXPECTED LATE
MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY MORNING. BRIEF IFR POSSIBLE TUESDAY MORNING.
WIND SHIFT TO NW WITH 25 TO 30 KT GUSTS IN THE AFTERNOON.

WED MORNING.

&&

.MARINE...

OVERNIGHT...WINDS HAVE DIMINISHED BELOW SCA THRESHOLDS IN BOS HARBOR
AND NARRAGANSETT BAY.  STILL SOME MARGINAL 25 KNOT GUSTS ACROSS SOME
OF OUR HARBORS AND CAPE COD BAY...SO HEADLINES CONTINUE UNTIL
MIDNIGHT.  ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE OUTER MOST WATERS WILL CONTINUE
HEADLINES FOR MARGINAL 5 FOOT SEAS UNTIL ABOUT 2 AM...BUT SHOULD
DIMINISH HERE AS WELL AFTER THAT TIME.

SUNDAY...
NW WIND GUSTS 20 TO 25 KT POSSIBLE LATE SUN AFTERNOON AND EARLY SUN
NIGHT ACROSS THE WATERS.

OUTLOOK /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

SUNDAY-MONDAY ...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY APPEARS LIKELY FOR GUSTY WEST
NORTHWEST WINDS LATE SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT AS A WEAK COLD FRONT
CROSSES THE WATERS. WINDS AND SEAS DIMINISH MONDAY.

TUESDAY...A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY EXPECTED WITH SOUTHWEST WINDS
GUSTING UP TO 25 KT IN THE MORNING THEN WINDS SHIFTING TO NORTHWEST
WITH 25 TO 30 KT GUSTS IN THE AFTERNOON. SCATTERED GUSTS UP TO 35 KT
POSSIBLE IN THE AFTERNOON. SEAS BUILDING TO 4 TO 6 FT ACROSS THE
OPEN WATERS.

TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...NW WINDS GUSTING TO 25 TO 30 KT
