AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAY ME
312 PM EST FRI JAN 2 2009

.SYNOPSIS...A WEAK LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL CROSS THE REGION THIS
EVENING...THEN DEEPENING AS IT MOVES INTO THE MARITIMES TONIGHT.
THE LOW WILL PRODUCE A GUSTY WEST TO NORTHWEST FLOW OVER THE AREA
SATURDAY. AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL CROSS THE REGION SATURDAY
NIGHT. A NARROW HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL CROSS THE REGION SUNDAY.
A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL APPROACH FROM THE SOUTHWEST...CROSSING NEW
ENGLAND EARLY MONDAY. THEN HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC
STATES WILL RIDGE NORTHWARD ON TUESDAY. LOW PRESSURE WILL LIFT OUT
OF THE SOUTHEAST...TRACKING NEAR NEW ENGLAND ON WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE PASSAGE OF THE WEAK SURFACE LOW AND
CLOSED MID LEVEL SYSTEM THIS EVENING WILL NOT HAVE A SIGNIFICANT
IMPACT ON THE REGION.

CURRENTLY...CLOUDS HAVE OVERSPREAD THE FORECAST AREA LATE THIS
AFTERNOON. THE INITIAL SHOT OF WARM AIR ADVECTION PRODUCED SOME
LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS TO THE SOUTH OF THE AREA...BUT AS OF YET NO
PRECIPITATION (AS THE LOW AND MID LEVEL REMAIN MUCH TOO DRY). A
LARGE AREA OF SNOW SHOWERS IN THE NEXT BATCH OF WARM AIR ADVECTION
MORE CLOSELY ASSOCIATED WITH THE CLOSED MID LEVEL SYSTEM OVER
SOUTHEAST ONTARIO AND WESTERN QUEBEC (WITH 1/2SM SN AT CYOW LATE
THIS MORNING).

THIS AREA SHOULD IMPACT THE NORTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE MOUNTAINS.
ELSEWHERE...THE COLUMN MAY BE TOO DRY FOR MUCH TO REACH THE
GROUND. THE HIGHEST SNOW CHANCES WERE PLACED IN THE MOUNTAINS FOR
THIS EVENING...DROPPING OFF TO VERY LITTLE FOR THE MID COAST
(WHERE THE DRY AIR MAY WIN OUT COMPLETELY). AFTER THIS...WILL
WATCH THE WEAK SURFACE LOW MOVES OFFSHORE. MODEL CONSENSUS IS TO
KEEP ANY SNOW WITH AN INVERTED TROUGH OFFSHORE THIS EVENING. LEFT
A MENTION OF SNOW SHOWERS FOR CENTRAL MAINE WITH THIS FEATURE.

IN ADDITION...THE FLOW MAY BE RIGHT FOR AT LEAST THE FIRST PORTION
OF THE NIGHT FOR THE SNOW SHOWERS OFF LAKE ONTARIO TO AFFECT
WESTERN NEW HAMPSHIRE. THIS WAS REFLECTED IN THE TEXT AND DIGITAL
FORECASTS.

AFTER THE SURFACE LOW PASSES AND STARTS TO DEEPEN IN RESPONSE TO
THE MID LEVEL CLOSED SYSTEM PASSING...WINDS WILL PICK UP IN THE
COLD AIR ADVECTION. THIS SHOULD HELP BREAK UP THE CLOUDS IN THE
FAVORED DOWNSLOPE AREAS. ELSEWHERE...THE CLOUDS MAY BE TOUGHER TO
BREAK AS THEY BECOME TRAPPED UNDER THE INVERSION. FOR THIS REASON...
DID NOT STRAY MUCH FROM THE MOS CONSENSUS FOR LOWS TONIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
THE CYCLONIC FLOW BEHIND THE DEPARTING SYSTEM WILL RESULT IN A
TYPICAL UPSLOPE/DOWNSLOPE CLOUD PATTERN. THE COLUMN DRIES SATURDAY
MORNING...SO THERE MAY BE A LULL IN THE UPSLOPE SNOW SHOWERS
DURING THE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON IN THE MOUNTAINS. ELSEWHERE...
EXPECTING PARTLY TO MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES...AS THE NAM LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE LOOKS A BIT OVERDONE.

THE WIND MAY END UP BEING THE MOST IMPORTANT SENSIBLE WEATHER
ELEMENT FOR SATURDAY. MODEL SOUNDINGS SUGGEST 35 TO 45 KNOTS WILL
BE AVAILABLE AT THE TOP OF THE INVERSION IN THE COLD AIR ADVECTION.
THIS APPEARS TO BE A SUB ADVISORY TYPE WIND EVENT...AS THE COLD
AIR ADVECTION IS NOT THAT IMPRESSIVE...AND THE DEEPENING SYSTEM TO
THE EAST NOT OVERLY INTENSE. WILL MENTION WIND GUSTS TO 35 TO 40
MPH FOR THE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON.

ANOTHER SHORT WAVE IN THE CYCLONIC FLOW WILL APPROACH THE FORECAST
AREA LATE IN THE DAY. THIS WILL SET UP A MORE FAVORABLE UPSLOPE
SNOW PATTERN FOR THE MOUNTAINS...AND COULD BRING A BIT MORE IN THE
WAY OF CLOUDS TO THE DOWNSLOPE AREAS. HIGHS SATURDAY WERE BASED
MAINLY ON A MOS CONSENSUS.

THE SHORT WAVES PASSES SATURDAY EVENING...AND THIS MAY REPRESENT
THE BEST CHANCE OF ACCUMULATING SNOWS IN THE UPSLOPE FLOW IN THE
FAVORED LOCATIONS. THE OVERALL SYNOPTIC PATTERN BECOMES BETTER...
BUT MOISTURE MAY BE LACKING. ELSEWHERE...MORE CLOUDS IN THE
EVENING SHOULD BE FOLLOWED BY CLEARING AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN
AT THE SURFACE. LOWS WERE BASED MAINLY ON A MOS BLEND.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
A NARROW HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BUILDS ACROSS NEW ENGLAND ON SUNDAY.
THE RIDGE BETWEEN SYSTEMS IS SO NARROW...THAT WARM AIR ADVECTION
ALOFT HAS ALREADY SET IN DURING THE DAY...WITH NAM BUFKIT SHOWING
A SIGNIFICANT INVERSION DEVELOPING AT ABOUT 3000 FT DURING THE
DAY. THIS SUGGESTS MOS MAY BE OPTIMISTIC ON SKY COVER...AND COULD
SEE A LAYER OF STRATUS FORM FROM THE MOISTURE TRAPPED BENEATH THE
INVERSION...LIMITING SUNSHINE. WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR
STRATUS...AND SOUNDING SHOWING COLD AIR CLINGING TO THE
SURFACE...HEDGE A TAD ON THE COLD SIDE OF NAM/GFS MOS BLEND FOR
TEMPERATURES.

WHAT LOOKS TO BE A WEAK OCCLUDED FRONT (DEPENDING ON WHERE IN NEW
ENGLAND YOU SIT)...CROSSES EARLY MONDAY. REGARDLESS THE
MODEL...LOOKS TO BE A NUISANCE EVENT...WITH GENERALLY LESS THAN
.10 OF QPF IF ANY AT ALL. GFS IS WEAKER/LOWER ON QPF THAN THE
NAM/GEM/UKMET/EUROPEAN. PREFER TO HEDGE POPS UP TO HIGH CHANCE IN
THE WEAK WARM AIR ADVECTION...AS GFS MOS MAY UNDERDO OUR CHANCES
OF MEASURING AS A LOW-END OUTLIER. PERHAPS THE ONLY ISSUE WITH
THIS...IS THAT WARM AIR IN THE MID LEVELS WILL PROHIBIT SNOW
DEVELOPMENT IN THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE CWA. 850 MB TEMPS ARE NOT
FORECAST TO GET TOO WARM...SUGGESTING SLEET...HOWEVER LIGHT PRECIP
OR SOUTHERN LOCATIONS MAY BE SEE LIGHT FREEZING RAIN. ANY FREEZING
RAIN WOULD BE MORE OF A TRAVEL HAZARD THAN ANYTHING ELSE...WITH
VERY THE VERY LIGHT QPFS.

ANOTHER NARROW RIDGE BUILDS IN FOR TUESDAY...THOUGH NORTHWEST FLOW
MAY BE ENOUGH TO PRODUCE SNOW SHOWERS BEHIND THE FRONT CONFINED TO
THE MOUNTAINS. THEN A MORE SIGNIFICANT SYSTEM APPROACHES TUESDAY
NIGHT. FAIRLY GOOD MODEL CONSENSUS ON THIS SYSTEM...WITH THE
GFS/GEM/EUROPEAN ALL PAINTING A SIMILAR PICTURE. BASICALLY...500
MB SHORTWAVE CROSSES THE GREAT LAKES...LIFTING A WARM FRONT AND A
GOOD SWATH OF MOISTURE TOWARDS THE REGION. A COASTAL LOW DEVELOPS
AT SOME POINT...HELPING TRAP IN COLD AIR...AGAIN AT SOME POINT. AS
IT STANDS NOW...NORTHERN AREAS ARE LIKELY TO SEE MOSTLY SNOW.
SOUTH...MIXED PRECIPITATION IS A CONCERN...WITH SNOW...SLEET...FREEZING
RAIN...AND RAIN ALL WITHIN THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY. WITH QPFS
ROUGHLY AN INCH WITH THIS SYSTEM...IT COULD POSE A SIGNIFICANT
IMPACT. HOWEVER...UNLIKE PAST SYSTEMS...IT IS NOT FORECAST TO
BRING PARTICULARLY STRONG WINDS AT THIS TIME. WITH MODEL
CONSENSUS...LEAN TOWARDS LOW-END LIKELY POPS.

LOOKING AHEAD...SYSTEM LIFTS TO THE NORTH ON THURSDAY...WITH A
HIGH LIKELY TO BUILD IN FOR FRIDAY. SOME DISAGREEMENT AS TO HOW
FAST THE LOW LIFTS OUT...THOUGH ANOTHER ROUND OF UPSLOPE SNOW
SHOWERS IN THE MOUNTAINS IS A GOOD BET WHENEVER THE SYSTEM DOES
PASS.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
IN THE NEAR TERM...EVEN WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE SURFACE LOW AND
MID LEVEL SUPPORT FOR THE LOW...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED FOR
TONIGHT. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT KLEB COULD SEE MVFR CONDITIONS IN
SNOW SHOWERS BETWEEN 2300 UTC AND 0600 UTC...AS SNOW SHOWER
ACTIVITY MAKES IT EAST FROM LAKE ONTARIO.

IN THE SHORT TERM...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED SATURDAY AND
SATURDAY NIGHT AS ANOTHER MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE PASSES SATURDAY
EVENING. WINDS WILL START TO GUST WITH SUNRISE IN THE COLD AIR
ADVECTION SATURDAY MORNING...AND A FEW GUSTS TO 35 KNOTS ARE
POSSIBLE.

LOOKING AHEAD...EXPECT A PERIOD OF PATCHY MVFR CIGS SUNDAY INTO
MONDAY...AND PERHAPS A PERIOD OF SN/PL/FZRA. A SIGNIFICANT SYSTEM
ON TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY MAY LOWER CIGS AND VSBY TO IFR OR
LOWER.

&&

.MARINE...
IN THE NEAR TERM...WINDS ARE AT SMALL CRAFT LEVELS IN THE SOUTHWEST
FLOW BEHIND THE WEAK WARM FRONT TO THE NORTH. IN FACT...MISM1 IS
FLIRTING WITH GALE FORCE GUSTS. THIS SHOULD BE FAIRLY SHORT LIVED
AS THE WARM AIR ADVECTION PEAKS LATE THIS AFTERNOON. OTHERWISE...WINDS
WILL STAY IN THE SMALL CRAFT RANGE THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS...OR
UNTIL A WEAK LOW CROSSES THE WATERS THIS EVENING. SEAS WILL ALSO
REACH SMALL CRAFT LEVELS THIS EVENING...IN RESPONSE TO THE
FAVORABLE FETCH.

THE WEAK LOW WILL THEN DEEPEN EAST OF THE WATERS TONIGHT...IN
RESPONSE TO THE PASSAGE OF A MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE. THE LOW WILL
BE MOVING AWAY AS IT DEEPENS...SO THE WEST TO NORTHWEST FLOW WILL
INCREASE BACK TO STRONG SMALL CRAFT LEVELS LATE TONIGHT.

IN THE SHORT TERM...MODEL SOUNDINGS SUGGEST THAT THE DEPTH OF THE
MIXED LAYER WILL BE SUCH THAT 40 TO 45 KNOT WINDS WILL BE AVAILABLE
AT THE TOP OF THE INVERSION. WHILE THE GRADIENT IS SUPPORTIVE OF A
MINIMAL GALE...THE MIXING IN THE COLD AIR ADVECTION SHOULD ALLOW
WINDS TO GUST TO 40 KNOTS...ESPECIALLY OVER THE OCEAN WATERS.

ANOTHER MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE PASSES SATURDAY EVENING. THIS WILL
RESULT IN A LOWER MIXED LAYER...BUT WINDS AT THE TOP OF THAT
INVERSION SHOULD SUPPORT GALE WINDS AS WELL.

LOOKING AHEAD...A SERIES OF FAST MOVING SYSTEMS WILL SET UP A
QUICKLY CHANGING PATTERN ON THE WATERS. LARGELY SPEAKING...CONDITIONS
WILL FALL INTO SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA...WITH 6 TO 12 HR PERIODS OF
SUB SCA CONDITIONS AS NARROW HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEMS CROSS SUNDAY
AND TUESDAY. LOW END GALES ARE POSSIBLE WITH THE TUESDAY NIGHT
INTO WEDNESDAY SYSTEM.
