AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
402 PM EDT TUE APR 27 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WILL BECOME STATIONARY IN THE CANADIAN MARITIMES
THROUGH THURSDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OFF THE SOUTHEAST U.S.
COAST BY FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND BRINGING INCREASINGLY WARM
CONDITIONS TO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.  A WARM FRONT MAY BRING
SCATTERED SHOWERS THROUGH THIS WEEKEND...THEN A COLD FRONT WILL TRY
TO PUSH OUT OF QUEBEC EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
COLD FRONT MOVING EWD ACROSS SNE WILL BRING A PERIOD OF SHOWERS
THROUGH THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON...MOVING OFF THE COAST BY THIS
EVENING.  MUCH COLDER AIRMASS ADVECTS INTO SNE TONIGHT WITH GUSTY
WLY WINDS DEVELOPING AND TEMPS FALLING THROUGH THE 30S.  MID LEVEL
LOW MOVES SLOWLY SWD INTO CENTRAL NEW ENG TONIGHT AND DRY SLOT SOUTH
OF THE CENTER WILL OVERSPREAD MUCH OF THE REGION RESULTING IN
PARTIAL CLEARING AND DRY WEATHER.  EXCEPTION WILL BE FAR NW ZONES
WHERE DEEPER MOISTURE WRAPPING AROUND MID LEVEL CENTER WILL RESULT
IN MORE CLOUDS AND THREAT OF SNOW SHOWERS...ESPECIALLY LATE TONIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
MID LEVEL LOW WILL MOVE TO THE EAST DURING WED AND DEEPER MOISTURE
WEST OF THE CENTER WILL ROTATE BACK INTO SNE BRINGING INCREASING
CLOUDS AND THREAT OF PRECIP.  HIGHEST POPS CONFINED TO NORTHERN
ZONES BUT WILL HAVE CHANCE DOWN TO THE COAST GIVEN INCREASING
MOISTURE IN THE COLUMN AND STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES.  COLUMN
COLD ENOUGH FOR SNOW SHOWERS IN THE NORTHERN HIGH TERRAIN WHERE
TEMPS WILL ONLY REACH LOWER 40S...WITH SOME UPPER 30S POSSIBLE IN
THE MONADNOCKS.  LOCAL ACCUM UP TO AN INCH POSSIBLE IN THE
MONADNOCKS.

TT REACH LOWER 50S WITH 700-500 MB LAPSE RATES AROUND 7.5 C/KM SO
SHOWERS WILL BE CONVECTIVE AND SMALL HAIL IS POSSIBLE GIVEN VERY
COLD TEMPS ALOFT.  IT WILL ALSO BE WINDY WITH NW WIND GUSTS TO 35
MPH ADDING TO THE CHILL.

LINGERING SHOWERS POSSIBLE E NEW ENG WED EVENING CLOSEST TO THE
DEPARTING MID LEVEL LOW...THEN GRADUAL CLEARING OVERNIGHT BUT
CONTINUED BRISK AS TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT PERSISTS.  ANOTHER COLD
NIGHT WITH MINS IN THE 30S.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
MEDIUM RANGE MODEL SUITE SHOWING HIGH SOLUTION SPREAD...THOUGH IT
APPEARS THAT THE ECMWF MODEL SHOWING MORE CONSISTENCY AND CLOSER TO
THE EC AND GFS ENSEMBLE MEANS. SOME CONFIDENCE WITH THE EARLY
PORTION OF THE FORECAST...LEADING THROUGH THE WEEKEND...BUT LESSENS
GREATLY EARLY NEXT WEEK. A LOT OF TIMING ISSUES WITH POSSIBLE
APPROACHING SYSTEMS.

THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...CONDITIONS SLOWLY BUT SURELY IMPROVE
OVER THIS PERIOD. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OFF THE SE U.S. COAST
WITH THE RIDGE BUILDING ACROSS NEW ENGLAND INTO NY STATE. WILL STILL
HAVE GUSTY WEST WINDS ON THURSDAY...UP TO 30 MPH...ALONG WITH MOSTLY
SUNNY CONDITIONS. THIS COULD BRING WITH IT SOME BRUSH FIRE ISSUES
/SEE FIRE WEATHER SECTION BELOW/.

BY FRIDAY...THE RIDGE WILL START TO PUSH E...ALLOWING MILDER AIR TO
WORK UP THE COAST. WILL SEE TEMPS REBOUND TO THE 70S BOTH FRIDAY AND
COULD EVEN SEE SOME READINGS CLOSE TO 80 ACROSS A FEW INTERIOR
LOCATIONS ON SATURDAY.  WITH THE RIDGE NEAR THE COAST...SEA BREEZES
WILL LIKELY DEVELOP KEEPING TEMPS A BIT COOLER THERE. ONCE SW WIND
KICK IN ON SATURDAY...TEMPS WILL REMAIN IN THE 60S ALONG THE S
COAST.

SUNDAY-TUESDAY...MODELS HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME WITH A POSSIBLE
BREAKDOWN OF THE LONG WAVE BLOCKING PATTERN ACROSS NORTH AMERICA
DURING THIS PERIOD. BIG QUESTION WILL BE WHETHER HIGH PRESSURE WILL
CONTINUE TO BUILD ALONG THE SE U.S. COAST...AND WHETHER A COLD FRONT
WILL PUSH OUT OF EASTERN AND CENTRAL CANADA TOWARD NEW ENGLAND EARLY
NEXT WEEK.

HAVE CARRIED LOW CHANCE POPS THROUGH MOST OF THIS PERIOD...AS THE
FRONT WILL ONLY SLOWLY APPROACH. NOT SURE IF IT WILL EVEN MAKE IT
INTO THE REGION UNTIL VERY LATE IN THIS PERIOD /TUESDAY/...SO LOW
CONFIDENCE WITH THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST. FEEL IT WILL REMAIN
MILD SUNDAY AND MONDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 70S...BUT MAY COOL DOWN A
BIT ON TUESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THROUGH TONIGHT...MVFR CIGS WITH POCKETS OF IFR CAPE/ISLANDS WILL
IMPROVE TO VFR FROM SW TO NE THIS EVENING WITH CLEARING SKIES LIKELY
OVER THE COASTAL PLAIN. HOWEVER...AREAS OF MVFR CONDITIONS MAY
PERSIST THROUGH THE NIGHT OVER NW HIGHER TERRAIN. WEST WIND GUSTS
20-25 KTS DEVELOPING LATE TONIGHT.

WEDNESDAY...VFR CIGS AROUND 4-5K FT NW ZONES WILL MOVE SWD AND
OVERSPREAD REST OF SNE DURING MORNING WITH POCKETS OF MVFR LIKELY
NORTH OF THE PIKE WHICH MAY SLIDE SWD ACROSS E MA DURING AFTERNOON.
SCT SHOWERS WITH NW WIND GUSTS TO 30 KTS EXPECTED.

KBOS...MVFR CIGS MAY BRIEFLY LOWER TO IFR AROUND 800 FEET LATE THIS
AFTERNOON BUT CONFIDENCE IS LOW SO DID NOT MENTION IN TAF. CIGS
LIFTING AND BECOMING VFR THIS EVENING THEN CLEARING AFTER MIDNIGHT.
CIGS AROUND 4K FT DEVELOPING WED MORNING POSSIBLY LOWERING TO A
PERIOD OF MVFR AROUND 2500 FT DURING AFTERNOON...LOW TO MOD
CONFIDENCE. NW WIND GUSTS 25-30 KTS DEVELOPING AROUND MIDDAY WED.

OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...

WEDNESDAY NIGHT...VFR CIGS EVENING...THEN PARTIAL CLEARING
OVERNIGHT. NW WIND GUSTS 25-30 KT EARLY.

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...VFR CIGS DURING MIDDAY THURSDAY...OTHERWISE
MOSTLY CLEAR OR CLEAR. W WIND GUSTS NEAR 30 KTS THURSDAY AND 20-25
KTS FRIDAY THROUGH MIDDAY...THEN DIMINISHING.

SATURDAY...VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
CONVERTED GALE WATCH TO A WARNING FOR SOUTH COASTAL WATERS STARTING
MIDDAY WED INTO WED NIGHT AS STRONG CAA BRINGS POTENTIAL FOR G35
KTS.  KEPT GALE WATCH FOR ANZ250 WHERE STRONGER WINDS WILL BE
DELAYED TIL LATE WED INTO WED NIGHT.  SCA FOR BOS
HARBOR...NARRAGANSETT BAY AND MASS BAY STARTING LATER TONIGHT INTO
WED NIGHT WHERE PEAK GUSTS DURING WED FORECAST TO FALL SHORT OF 35
KTS.

WEST WINDS WILL BE INCREASING TONIGHT WITH G30 KTS POSSIBLE MAINLY
WATERS SOUTH OF RI COAST AND G20-25 KTS DEVELOPING ELSEWHERE.

.FIRE WEATHER...
THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE OF RED FLAG CONDITIONS ON THURSDAY...WITH A
SOMEWHAT LESSER CHANCE DURING FRIDAY ACROSS N CT...INTERIOR MA...
MOST OF RI AND S NH. W-NW WINDS ARE FORECAST TO GUST UP TO 25
KNOTS...WHILE LESS THAN 1/4 INCH OF RAIN HAS FALLEN ACROSS NORTHERN
MA/S NH SINCE 4/18. MILDER AIR WILL WORK INTO THE REGION...
ESPECIALLY ON FRIDAY THOUGH WINDS WILL START TO LESSEN BY THEN.
UNUSUALLY MILD CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN PERSISTENT OVER THE LAST FEW
WEEKS.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
HIGH ASTRONOMICAL TIDES EXPECTED FOR THE LATE EVENING HIGH TIDE.
MRPSSE TOO LOW ON SURGE AND SO WE ADDED ABOUT 0.5 FT WHICH BRINGS
BOS TO 12.5 FEET AND THIS IS WITHIN ONE FOOT OF FLOOD STAGE.
HOWEVER...LIMITED WAVE ACTION WITH SEAS ONLY AROUND 3 FEET SO NO
SPLASHOVER EXPECTED.

PVD ALSO EXPECTED TO APPROACH FLOOD STAGE OF 7 FEET THIS EVENING
WITH FORECAST OF 6.8 FEET.
