AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
410 PM EST SAT JAN 17 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
VERY COLD TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON. LOW PRES IN THE GREAT LAKES TONIGHT WILL
REDEVELOP JUST SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND BY LATE SUNDAY BRINGING WITH IT
A CHANCE FOR PLOWABLE SNOW LATE TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. HIGH
PRESSURE THEN BRINGS DRY BUT CONTINUED COLD AIR FOR TUESDAY THROUGH
THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
HAD A VERY...VERY COLD START THIS MORNING. LOWEST TEMP SEEN ON ASOS
THIS MORNING WAS -19 AT ORANGE AND -15 AT CHICOPEE FALLS...WITH COOP
REPORTS DOWN TO -17 AT AMHERST...-19 AT HUDSON NH...-24 AT MARLOW NH
AND -20 AT KEENE.

UPDATED THE ZONES AND GRIDS TO BRING CONDITIONS CURRENT...MAINLY FOR
TEMPS...DEWPOINTS AND LIGHT WINDS. AT 15Z...APPEARS THAT TEMPS ARE
RECOVERING QUICKLY...SO KEPT HIGH TEMPS WITHIN A COUPLE OF DEGREES
OF PREVIOUS FORECAST. DID LOWER A LITTLE MORE OVER THE HIGHER
TERRAIN. ALSO WENT WITH MAINLY CLEAR SKIES INTO THIS AFTERNOON...
THEN HAVE INCREASED THE CLOUDS FROM THE W AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING
CLIPPER SYSTEM OUT OF THE GREAT LAKES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SUNDAY/...
CLOUDS RAPIDLY THICKEN THIS EVENING AS A STRONG SHORT WAVE AND
ATTENDANT SFC LOW APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. THE APPROACH OF THE
SHORT WAVE WILL AID IN SHARPENING UP A WARM FRONT AND WEAK FRONTAL
WAVE EAST OF THE NEW JERSEY COAST.

INCREASING ASCENT AND MOISTURE ADVECTION IN THE COLUMN WILL
EVENTUALLY AID IN PRECIP DEVELOPMENT AFTER MIDNIGHT. LIGHT SNOW
SHOULD GRADUALLY DEVELOP ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. IT MAY FIRST
START TO DEVELOP NEAR THE CAPE AND ISLANDS AS AIR/SST DIFFERENTIALS
MAY ACTUALLY ALLOW FOR SOME OCEAN ENHANCEMENT IN THE INCREASING S/SE
FLOW. WENT WITH CATEGORICAL POPS BY VERY LATE TONIGHT FOR ALL ZONES.

LIGHT TO OCCASIONALLY MODERATE SNOWFALL SHOULD BE ONGOING SUNDAY
MORNING MOST ZONES AS ASCENT AND SNOW GROWTH IMPROVES A BIT. AT THIS
TIME...WE/RE A BIT UNSURE ON EXACT SNOW AMOUNTS FOR THE AREA. CURRENT
THINKING IS THAT MOST AREAS WILL SEE ADVISORY SNOWS...WITH THE
POTENTIAL FOR A BIT MORE IF COASTAL FRONT ENHANCEMENT
OCCURS...GENERALLY NEAR AND JUST WEST OF I-95. BOUNDARY LAYER WARMING
SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT ENOUGH TO ALLOW FOR A TRANSITION TO RAIN ON THE
CAPE AND ISLANDS AND POSSIBLY THE IMMEDIATE SOUTH COAST OF MA/RI. MAY
SEE A RAIN SNOW MIX GET AS FAR NW AS I-95...BUT PLAYED IT A TAD BIT
EAST OF THERE FOR THE MOMENT.

IF FRONTOGENESIS/INSTABILITY FIELDS...SNOW GROWTH
PROFILES/RATIOS LOOKED BETTER...MAY HAVE ISSUED A WATCH FOR PORTIONS
OF SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND NORTHEAST/NORTH-CENTRAL MASS FOR LATE
TONIGHT AND SUNDAY. SREF PROBS FOR GREATER THAN 4 INCHES OF SNOW IN
12 HOURS ON SUNDAY ARE NOT VERY HIGH UNTIL YOU GET NORTH OF THIS
CWA...BUT DO EXPECT THOSE TO INCREASE A BIT WITH TIME. OFTENTIMES
SREF PROBS FOR SNOW ARE TOO LOW AT THIS TIME RANGE.

IT/S NOT OUT OF THE REALM THAT A FEW 6 INCH AMOUNTS OCCUR
ACROSS THE REGION MENTIONED ABOVE...ESPECIALLY IF COASTAL FRONT
ENHANCEMENT OCCURS. HOWEVER...IT LOOKS LIKE THE SIGNAL FOR HEAVY
SNOWS IS PEGGED ALONG THE COAST OF MAINE. SINCE THIS IS MAINLY A 3RD
PERIOD EVENT...HELD OFF ON ISSUING ANY ADVISORIES AT THIS TIME...BUT
DO EXPECT AT LEAST A PORTION OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND TO SEE THEM BY
LATER TODAY.

OVERALL...WE CURRENTLY EXPECT A GENERAL 3-6 INCH EVENT STARTING LATE
TONIGHT GOING INTO SUNDAY...WITH WITH VERY LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS
POSSIBLE. LESSER AMOUNTS LIKELY PORTIONS OF SE MASS/CAPE/ISLANDS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY...AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL PASS TO THE
SOUTHEAST OF NANTUCKET OVERNIGHT.  THE 12Z NAM/GFS AND 00Z ECMWF
HAVE VARYING SOLUTIONS IN REGARDS TO HOW FAR SOUTHEAST OF NANTUCKET
THEY WILL PASS...THE 12Z ECMWF TAKES THE LOW ON A PATH TO THE NORTH
OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.  THIS IS A RECENT OUTLIER SOLUTION SO AM
GOING TO FOCUS ON MORE OF A BLEND OF THE NAM/GFS SOLUTIONS.  THERE
IS A SECOND REGION OF LOW PRESSURE THAT STARTS OFF IN THE GREAT
LAKES AND THEN GETS ABSORBED BY THE STRONGER COASTAL LOW.  WITH
ANYWHERE FROM A TENTH TO A THIRD OF AN INCH OF QPF PREDICTED...ARE
EXPECTING A CHANCE OF SNOW SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY.  AT THIS
POINT...ONLY LOOKING AT AN ADDITIONAL ONE TO TWO INCHES BEYOND WHAT
IS EXPECTED TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY.  OTHERWISE...WE WILL SEE
TEMPERATURES HOLDING STEADY SUNDAY NIGHT WITH LOWS IN THE 20S.  THEN
MONDAY...TEMPERATURES WILL BE SIMILAR TO SUNDAYS WITH HIGHS IN THE
30S.

TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...HIGH PRESSURE WILL KEEP THE WEATHER
PRETTY QUIET BUT CHILLY.  HIGHS WILL RANGE FROM THE 20S TO AROUND
FREEZING WHILE LOWS WILL BE IN THE SINGLE DIGITS TO AROUND 20 MOST
LOCATIONS.  WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY THERE MAY BE SOME GUSTY WINDS IN
THE AFTERNOON WHICH WILL MAKE IT FEEL A LITTLE COLDER.

FRIDAY...ANOTHER STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BRING A COLD FRONT
THROUGH SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.  THIS WILL BRING A CHANCE OF SNOW OR A
RAIN/SNOW MIX TO MUCH OF THE AREA.  HIGHS WILL BE IN THE 30S WITH
LOWS RANGING FROM THE TEENS IN THE INTERIOR TO MID 20S ON THE CAPE.

&&

.AVIATION /21Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
THIS AFTERNOON...VFR.

TONIGHT...VFR. MVFR CEILINGS/VSBYS IN SNOW DEVELOP MOST TERMINALS
AFTER 08Z.

SUNDAY...IFR IN SNOW. MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW ACK/MVY/HYA AND POSSIBLY
FOR A TIME AT PVD. ACK PROBABLY GOES TO ALL RAIN BY 16Z IF NOT
SOONER.

OUTLOOK /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...

SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS LIKELY IN -SN MOST
LOCATIONS AND A POSSIBLE -SN/-RA MIX ON THE CAPE AND ISLANDS.
CONDITIONS WILL IMPROVE TO VFR LATE MONDAY AFTERNOON.

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY...VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
THIS AFTERNOON...HAVE LOWERED THE SMALL CRAFT ON THE MERRIMACK TO
PLYMOUTH STRETCH...WIND GUSTS HAVE FINALLY DIMINISHED WITH SEAS DOWN
TO 4 FT ON THE OUTER WATERS. EXPECT WINDS TO BACK TO SW BY EVENING.

TONIGHT..E-SE WINDS BEGIN TO INCREASE TONIGHT. MAY NEED SCA VERY LATE
TONIGHT.

SUNDAY...SCA FOR MOST MARINE ZONES AS LOW PRESSURE PASSES.

OUTLOOK.../SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...

SUNDAY NIGHT...SOUTHERLY WINDS 10-15KTS SHIFT TO THE NORTH.  A SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY HAS BEEN ISSUED THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT FOR SEAS 5 TO 8
FT.

MONDAY...NORTHERLY WINDS 10-15KTS SHIFT TO THE WEST AND INCREASE TO
15-20KTS GUSTING TO NEAR 30KTS OVERNIGHT.  SEAS 5 TO 8 FT.

25KTS.  SEAS DECREASING THROUGH THE DAY...REMAINING AT 5 FT ON THE
