AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1146 AM EDT MON MAR 15 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
A MAJOR NOREASTER CENTERED SOUTH OF LONG ISLAND WILL PRODUCE PERIODS
OF HEAVY RAIN AND DAMAGING WIND IN EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND RHODE
ISLAND THROUGH THIS EVENING...THEN DRIFT OUT TO SEA SOUTHEAST OF
NANTUCKET EARLY TUESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE FROM THE GREAT PLAINS FOLLOWS
INTO THE SOUTHEAST USA FRIDAY...DELIVERING A SPELL OF VERY NICE SPRING
WEATHER HERE FOR MUCH OF THE MIDDLE AND END OF THIS WEEK. A STRENGTHENING
COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST NEXT SUNDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS A CONVEYOR BELT OF MOISTURE EXTENDING FROM
SOUTH OF NOVA SCOTIA ACROSS THE GULF OF MAINE AND MASSACHUSETTS BAY
INTO EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS. RADAR HAS SHOWN A COUPLE OF BURSTS OF
PRECIP THAT MOVED ONSHORE DURING THE MORNING. A THIRD WAS MOVING INTO
MASS BAY LATE MORNING AND WILL MOVE ACROSS BOSTON MIDDAY...THEN METRO
WEST EARLY AFTERNOON. SOME OF THE ENHANCEMENT ON RADAR IS PROBABLY
DUE TO RAIN/SNOW MIX...A SPOTTER IN WESTON REPORTED MIXED RAIN/SNOW
IN THE LATE MORNING.

BASED ON RADAR AND SATELLITE THE RAIN SHOULD CONTINUE THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON...SUPPORTED BY DEEP MOISTURE AND LIFT AS PER THE NAM AND
GFS. ADDITIONAL QPF SHOULD BE IN THE 0.5 TO 1.0 INCH RANGE...ISOLATED
1-1.5 INCH AMOUNTS POSSIBLE.

WINTRY PCPN...SHOULD SEE A MIX AND CHANGE TO WET SNOW THIS AFTERNOON
PRIMARILY ACROSS THE UPSLOPE AREAS OF THE WORCESTER HILLS AND
MONADNOCKS OF SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE. H925-H85 TEMPERATURES COOL OFF
TODAY BUT SURFACE TEMPS REMAIN A TAD TOO WARM TO SUPPORT ACCUMULATING
SNOW EXCEPT THE HIGHER TERRAIN. HAVE ONE TO THREE INCHES FORECAST
ACROSS THE HIGH TERRAIN OF NORTHERN WORCESTER COUNTY AND THE
MONADNOCKS OF SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE BUT LITTLE IF ANY ACCUMULATION
ELSEWHERE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM TUESDAY/...
WIND...WIND ADVISORY REMAINS POSTED ALONG THE EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS
COAST. PRES GRADIENT WIND BETWEEN CANADIAN MARITIMES SURFACE HIGH
LOW SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND AS WELL AS EASTERLY 55-65 KT LOW LEVEL JET
WILL BRING SUSTAINED WINDS 20 TO 30 KT WITH SCATTERED GUSTS TO 45 KT
TONIGHT.  WINDS DIMINISH LATE TONIGHT.

WARM CONVEYOR BELT PRECIPITATION WILL TAPER OFF FROM NORTH TO SOUTH.
THE RAIN AND SNOW MIXED ALONG THE COAST AND SNOW ACROSS THE INTERIOR
HIGH TERRAIN WILL DIMINISH. LEANED TOWARDS THE NAM SOLUTION IN TERMS
OF SLOWER TIMING OF PRECIPITATION DEPARTURE AND AMOUNTS AS THIS IS A
SLOW MOVING UPPER LEVEL LOW.

HYDRO...PLEASE SEE SECTION BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS. NUMEROUS STREAMS
AND RIVERS EXPECTED TO BE IN FLOOD. ADDITIONAL QPF WILL BE LIGHT...
GENERALLY LESS THAN 0.25 INCH. WET SNOW WILL BE MIXED WITH SOME OF
THE RAINFALL.

WIND...A WIND ADVISORY WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE CAPE AND ISLANDS
DURING THE EVENING TIME FRAME WITH SCATTERED GUSTS TO 40 TO 45 KT.
WINDS NORTH OF PLYMOUTH EXPECTED TO SUBSIDE.

WINTRY WEATHER...LITTLE ADDITIONAL SNOW ACCUMULATION EXPECTED ACROSS
THE HIGH TERRAIN AS PRECIPITATION WILL BE TAPERING OFF.

COASTAL FLOOD...HIGH TIDE OCCURS BETWEEN APPROXIMATELY 9PM AND
MIDNIGHT. SHOULD SEE ABOUT A 1.5 FOOT SURGE COMBINED WITH 12 TO 18
FOOT SEAS POUNDING THE SHORELINE AND ASTRONOMICAL TIDES WHICH WILL
BE SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN MONDAY MIDDAY. WILL NEED ANOTHER COASTAL FLOOD
ADVISORY FOR TONIGHT ALONG THE EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS COAST...PRIMARILY
THE CAPE AND ISLANDS...BUT MIGHT NEED TO BE EXTENDED AS FAR NORTH AS
SCITUATE.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
OUR PESKY NOREASTER WILL FINALLY MOVE FAR AWAY FROM SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND ON TUESDAY. RAPID CLEARING FROM NORTH TO SOUTH SHOULD BE
OCCURRING EARLY TUESDAY MORNING. THIS WILL SET THE STAGE FOR A NICE
TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY PERIOD AS DRY AND RELATIVELY MILD WESTERLY
FLOW TAKES OVER. 00Z/15 GFS MOS TEMPS ARE WARMING AND 55 TO 65 DEGREE
SUCCESSIVE DAYS ARE A HIGH PROBABILITY FORECAST FOR THE WED-SAT TIME
FRAME IN NON MARINE INFLUENCED SNE.

NEXT WEEKEND BLENDED THE 12Z/14 ECMWF /00Z VSN ARRIVED TOO LATE/ DEWS
WITH THE GFS MOS FOR WHAT I THINK IS A BETTER FCST ON SSW FLOW.

POPS INCREASED SLIGHTLY CENTERED ON LATE SUNDAY.

THIS NEXT THREAT FOR SIGNIFICANT PRECIP ARRIVES SUNDAY OR SUNDAY
NIGHT AS THE NEXT DEEP TROF MOVES AT US FROM THE LAKES. IT COULD JUST
BE A FRONTAL PASSAGE...BUT IT COULD ALSO BE A MORE SIGNIFICANT COASTAL
LOW DEPENDING ON SHORT WAVE STRENGTH...SPEED...AND TIMING IN BOTH THE
NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN STREAMS WITH A FAST MOVING PHASER POSSIBLE INTO
NEW ENGLAND.

&&

.AVIATION /16Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
TODAY...GENERAL IFR CONDITIONS FROM ORH EAST TO BOS-MHT-PVD AS
WELL AS THE CAPE AND ISLANDS. MVFR CEILINGS AND VSBYS CONN VALLEY.
E WINDS GUSTING TO 40 TO 45 KT AT LOGAN AND ALONG THE IMMEDIATE
EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS COAST. HAVE ISSUED AN AIRPORT WEATHER ADVISORY
THROUGH 8PM FOR STRONG WINDS.

RAIN SHOULD MIX WITH AND CHANGE TO SNOW AFT 18Z KMHT-KORH.

TONIGHT...MVFR WEST AND IFR EAST EARLY. MVFR WEST IMPROVING TO VFR.
IFR CONDITIONS IMPROVING TO MVFR EAST AFT 06Z EXCEPT PERHAPS NOT
UNTIL 12Z CAPE AND ISLANDS. LEFTOVER -SN AND -RA. NE WINDS GUSTING
TO 40 KT ACROSS THE CAPE AND ISLANDS UNTIL 06Z.

OUTLOOK...TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...

HIGH CONFIDENCE IN VFR CONDITIONS THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD. THE FOGGER
TOOL HAS THE COUNTRYSIDE FOG MANY NIGHTS BUT I THINK THE MOST WIDESPREAD
FOG/STRATUS POTENTIAL IN THIS PERIOD IS LATE FRI NIGHT.

&&

.MARINE...
TODAY...GALE WARNINGS CONTINUE ALL WATERS. SHOULD SEE SUSTAINED
WINDS 25 TO 35 KT WITH GUSTS TO 45 KT TODAY. MARGINAL STORM FORCE
GUSTS POSSIBLE. DANGEROUS SEAS TODAY 17 TO 22 FT. MARINERS URGED TO
REMAIN IN PORT.

TONIGHT...GALE WARNINGS ALL WATERS. SEAS 14 TO 20 FEET TONIGHT.
WINDS WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH FROM N TO S OVERNIGHT.

OUTLOOK...TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...

WINDS AND SEAS CONTINUE TO DIMINISH TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT. SOME
LINGERING GALES POSSIBLE EARLY TUESDAY MORNING. EASTERLY SWELLS WILL
BE SLOWER TO FOLLOW...BUT WILL SLOWLY SUBSIDE. OVERALL...THE TUESDAY
NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY PERIOD SHOULD FEATURE PLENTY OF SUNSHINE AND
RELATIVELY LIGHT WINDS BUT SEAS WITH BE UNCOMFORTABLE THROUGH AT
LEAST WEDNESDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
630AM : FLOOD WATCH CANCELLED ALL EXCEPT HILLSBOROUGH CTY NH PER
NEAR TERM.

ALREADY AS OF 1 AM...RAINFALL OF 3 TO 6.67 INCHES WITHIN 20 MI OF
THE RI/CT BORDER AND THE ERN 1/4 OF MASSACHUSETTS ALONG THE COAST.
LESSER AMOUNTS ELSEWHERE. PATTERN RECOGNITION CLIMO AND THE GEFS/SREF
PROBS FOR 4 INCHES WERE VERY HELPFUL FOR THIS ENTIRE EVENT FIRST
WITH A BULLSEYE FOR NYC WHICH VERIFIED AND THEN ERN MASS. THE MODELS
ARE IMPROVING AND WHEN CYCLICALLY CONSISTENT...PROJECT THESE MAJOR
EVENTS WITH INCREASING ACCURACY AND EXPRESSED CONFIDENCE FROM LONGER
RANGES.

EXPECT AN ADDITIONAL 0.6 TO 1.6 INCHES OF WATER EQUIVALENT PCPN
IN ERN MASS FM 5 AM THRU MIDNIGHT TONIGHT WITH ISOLATED THUNDER AND
CERTAINLY CONVECTIVE IN NATURE THIS MORNING.

THAT RESULTS IN TWO PROBLEMS...

FIRST...GENERAL AREAL FLOODING. SMALL STREAMS AND URBAN AREAS WILL
BE MOST AT RISK. FLOOD WARNINGS ARE IN EFFECT FOR ALL AREAS EXCEPT
THE CT VALLEY AND CAPE/ISLANDS. THESE CONTINUE THROUGH ROUGHLY 6 AM
AND MOST LIKELY WILL NEED AN EXTENSION IN OUR 5AM MONDAY PACKAGE.

SECOND...MAIN STEM RIVERS ARE RISING INTO FLOOD. THREE NEAR MAJOR
FLOODS ARE NOW PROJECTED IN OUR RIVER FORECASTS FOR PAWTUXET AT CRANSTON...
THE ASSABET AT MAYNARD AND SHAWSHEEN AT WILMINGTON. SOME OF THE DATA
WE ARE EVALUATING IS INDICATING THE WORST FLOODING IN SOME PLACES
SINCE AT LEAST MAY-JUNE 2006. YESTERDAYS BOSTON DAILY RECORD OF 3.4
INCHES WAS THE HIGHEST CALENDAR DAILY TOTAL SINCE MAY 13-14 2006
EVENT. IT IS ALSO THE SECOND HIGHEST CALENDER DAY MONTH OF "MARCH"
TOTAL IN BOSTON HISTORY. 3/18 1968 HAD A 3.49 INCH AMOUNT.

FLOOD WATER RECESSION WILL TAKE AT LEAST INTO WEDNESDAY.

RIVER FLOOD WARNINGS ARE IN EFFECT. OTHER RIVERS PROJECTED TO GO INTO
FLOOD BUT WE WANT TO BE CERTAIN BEFORE ISSUING LATER TODAY.

MAX EVENT RAINFALL SO FAR... MOSTLY NE CORNER OF MASS...ESSEX
MIDDLESEX COUNTIES.

PNS UPDATED AT 150 AM BY AL DUNHAM WITH MANY 5 TO 6.6 INCH REPORTS.
WE DROPPED ALL REPORTS PRIOR TO 7AM YESTERDAY WHICH MEANS MANY WIND
REPORTS DROPPED AS WELL AS PERIPHERY EVENT TOTALS. WE WILL NEED ALL
THOSE WHO REPORTED TO UPDATE THEIR STORM TOTALS IN WEBENTRY FOR US TO
MORE EASILY ACQUIRE/REVIEW FOR POSSIBLE POSTING INTO THE PNS.

WE WILL GO AHEAD WITH UPDATED LSR/PNS INFORMATION AS SOON AS WE
CLEAR ALL FINAL STATEMENT ISSUANCES. PLEASE FOLLOW THE ADVICE OF
LOCAL OFFICIALS AND DO NOT CIRCUMVENT PROTECTIVE BARRICADES. A FOOT
OF WATER CAN EASILY FLOAT A CAR. THIS IS FLOOD AWARENESS WEEK. WHEN
FACED WITH DEEP WATER IN THE ROAD...TURN AROUND-DONT DROWN.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
PERSISTENT ENE TO NE GALE TO STORM FORCE WINDS WITH A LONG FETCH OFF
THE MASSACHUSETTS EAST COAST IS LIKELY TO KEEP A STORM SURGE OF 2 TO
2.5 FEET THROUGH THE MIDDAY HIGH TIDE AND SEAS 20 TO 25 FEET WITH 20
MILES OF SHORE. WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF THE SURGE ENDS UP CLOSER
TO 2.5 FEET NEWBURYPORT TO PLYMOUTH. ALSO...GIVEN DURATION AND FETCH
OF WINDS...EXPECT INCREASING SWELL ENERGY WHICH COULD ENHANCE
STRENGTH OF BREAKING SURF. GIVEN THIS AND THE ASTRONOMICAL TIDE A
LITTLE LESS THAN A HALF FOOT HIGHER FOR THE TIDE AROUND NOON
TODAY...BELIEVE WE WILL SEE AN IMPACT A LITTLE HIGHER THAN THE PRIOR
TWO HIGH TIDE CYCLES. HAVE DECIDED TO UPGRADE TO A COASTAL FLOOD
WARNING FOR THE MONDAY NOON TIDE FROM THE PLUM ISLAND AREA SOUTH TO
PLYMOUTH. THINK AT LEAST SOME OF THIS AREA WILL REACH THE LOW END
MODERATE THRESHOLD IN SPITE OF RELATIVELY LOW ASTRONOMICAL TIDES.
BEACH EROSION IS EXPECTED TO BE SIGNIFICANT DURING THE MIDDAY HIGH
TIDE AS WELL...A REAL CONCERN FOR THOSE LOCATIONS ALREADY HEAVILY
IMPACTED BY PRIOR BEACH EROSION EPISODES. ALSO FOR THIS NEWBURYPORT
TO PLYMOUTH STRETCH...HAVE INDICATED THE LIKELIHOOD OF MINOR COASTAL
FLOODING AND STILL MORE CONSEQUENTIAL BEACH EROSION FOR THE HIGH
TIDE AROUND MIDNIGHT TONIGHT.

FURTHER SOUTH INCLUDING THE OCEAN SIDE OF THE OUTER CAPE AND THE
NORTH AND EAST SHORES OF NANTUCKET...EXPECTING SURGES OF 1.5 TO
POSSIBLY 2 FEET AND WAVES 15 TO 20 FEET JUST OFFSHORE. THIS LOOKS
LIKE ENOUGH TO PRODUCE MINOR COASTAL FLOODING...AND MORE
SIGNIFICANTLY...SUBSTANTIAL BEACH EROSION. ALTHOUGH SOME INUNDATION IS
LIKELY, THE GREATER CONCERN FOR THIS STRETCH OF COASTLINE IS THE
HIGH RISK OF CONTINUED SIGNIFICANT BEACH EROSION.

SEAS AND SURGE SHOULD GRADUALLY SUBSIDE LATE TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY
MORNING...ALTHOUGH SOME BEACH EROSION MAY PERSIST INTO TUESDAY.

BOS NOS
11.54 1130AM THE 14TH WITH 19-20 FT SEAS.
11.87 1154PM THE 14TH WITH 20-21 FT SEAS. FLOODING SHOULD HAVE BEEN
