AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
525 AM EDT SAT JUN 5 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
A STATIONARY FRONT WILL WAVER NORTH AND SOUTH ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND THIS WEEKEND AS WAVES OF LOW PRESSURE MOVE ALONG IT. THIS
FRONT WILL MOVE SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND LATE SUNDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS IN FOR THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK WITH DRIER AND MORE
SEASONABLE AIR. A LOW PRESSURE MAY BRING ANOTHER CHANCE OF SHOWERS
WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
LAST OF THE EARLY MORNING TSTMS HAVE MOVED OFF THE E COAST ACROSS
MASS BAY AT 08Z. HAVE HAD SEVERAL REPORTS OF PEA SIZE HAIL IN
CENTRAL MA...WITH LARGER HAIL IN DORCHESTER AND QUINCY. WILL ISSUE
PRELIM LOCAL STORM REPORT WITH DETAILS SHORTLY. BEEN WAY BEHIND DUE
TO RADAR OUTAGE AND CONVECTION.

WARM FRONT HAS PUSHED N OF THE REGION...WHILE NEXT LOW WORKS OUT OF
NY STATE. ALREADY NOTING SHOWERS/TSTMS MOVING ACROSS UPSTATE NY NEAR
KGFL...SO EXPECT TO SEE MORE CONVECTION ARRIVING THIS MORNING.

LOW PRES WILL PUSH ACROSS NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND TODAY...DRAGGING
ANOTHER FRONT INTO THE REGION. MODELS STILL SHOWING A GOOD AMOUNT OF
INSTABILITY AND LIFT AS THIS FRONT APPROACHES THIS AFTERNOON. ALSO
NOTING SOME BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS ACROSS CENTRAL PA/MD WHICH SHOULD
WORK IN AROUND THE TIME OF MAX HEATING...WHICH WILL ONLY HELP IN
DESTABILIZATION OF AIR MASS. MODELS ALSO HINTING AT THIS.

NOTING SURFACE BASED CAPES OF 1500-2000 J/KG LATER THIS AFTERNOON
ACROSS N CT/W MA...AS WELL AS LI/S DOWN TO AROUND -3 TO -4 AND K
INDICES IN THE MID-UPPER 30S. THIS IS RATHER HIGH FOR OUR REGION.
SPC HAS PUT ENTIRE REGION INTO SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE TSTMS. MORE
DETAILS WILL BE IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. HAVE ALSO UPDATED
THE GRIDS AND ZONES TO USE ENHANCED WORDING FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF
DAMAGING WINDS AND SMALL HAIL FROM LATE MORNING THROUGH THIS
EVENING. PW/S ALSO CONTINUE AROUND 2 INCHES...SO WILL ALSO SEE SOME
HEAVY DOWNPOURS WITH SOME OF THE SHOWERS/STORMS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM SUNDAY/...
TONIGHT...EXPECT THREAT OF TSTMS TO DIMINISH BY AROUND MIDNIGHT...
BUT WILL STILL SEE SCT SHOWERS ACROSS MOST OF THE REGION AS THE
FRONT STALLS. LOOKS LIKE NEXT LOW STARTS TO APPROACH BY DAYBREAK
WITH RENEWED ENHANCEMENT OF SHOWERS. OVERNIGHT LOWS MAINLY IN THE
60S.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
DID NOT LOOK AT OR MODIFY THE FORECAST AFTER MONDAY DUE TO THE
CONVECTION EARLY THIS MORNING.

05/00Z MODELS ARE CLOSE ENOUGH TO WARRANT USING THE CONSENSUS
SOLUTION AS BASIS FOR THIS FORECAST. STILL SOME MINOR TIMING AND
TRACK DIFFERENCES...BUT DEFINITELY SMALLER DISCREPANCIES THAN FROM A
FEW DAYS AGO.

ZONAL FLOW STARTS TO BEND SUNDAY AS THE QUEBEC UPPER LOW DIGS A
SHORTWAVE THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES WHICH THEN SWEEPS ACROSS NEW
ENGLAND MONDAY. THE GENERAL TREND FOR THE UPCOMING WEEK WILL THEN BE
BUILDING HEIGHTS ALOFT AS AN UPPER RIDGE SHIFTS EAST.

SUNDAY...
MAIN CHANGE TO THIS FORECAST WAS TO INCREASE POPS TO CATEGORICAL
ALONG AND NORTH OF I-90 IN MA FOR SUNDAY. MAINTAINED LIKELY POPS
ELSEWHERE. ALSO BASED ON THE CONSENSUS TRACK AND FORECAST STABILITY
INDICES...WE HAVE BROUGHT CHANCE POPS FOR THUNDER TO MOST OF
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND AT SOME POINT SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT. THINKING
MAIN THREAT WILL BE ACROSS INTERIOR SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND DURING THE
AFTERNOON...THEN THE THREAT SHIFTS TOWARD SOUTHEAST MA FOR THE
EVENING. FORECAST PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES CONTINUE 1.7 TO 2.0
INCHES...SO HEAVY DOWNPOURS ARE LIKELY AS WELL.

TEMPS ARE A BLEND OF MAV AND MET MOS VALUES...SHIFTED AS NECESSARY TO
ALLOW FOR A DIURNAL RANGE AROUND 10F.

MONDAY-TUESDAY-WEDNESDAY
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE REGION EARLY WEEK. THE UPPER TROF NOTED
ABOVE ROTATES THROUGH NEW ENGLAND MONDAY WITH SOME COOLING ALOFT.
THIS COULD RESULT IN A FEW MORE CLOUDS THAN FORECAST...ESPECIALLY IN
SRN NH/NORTHERN MASS...AND POSSIBLE WIDELY SCATTERED
SHOWERS/SPRINKLES. 850 MB TEMPS 6-8C WITH SLIGHTLY WARMER EQUIVALENT
AT 800 MB...THIS SHOULD SUPPORT MAX TEMPS IN THE 70S. DEW POINTS IN
THE 40S AND LOW 50S SHOULD SUPPORT MIN TEMPS AROUND 50 OR IN THE 50S.

THURSDAY
LOW PRESSURE FROM THE PLAINS APPROACHES THURSDAY. THE ECMWF AND GFS
INDICATE A SYSTEM PASSING ON THURSDAY...POSSIBLY SPINNING UP A
COASTAL LOW AS IT PASSES. WE WILL BRING CHANCE POPS FOR SHOWERS AND
AWAIT FURTHER MODEL SUITES.

FRIDAY
HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS WITH DRY WEATHER.

&&

.AVIATION /09Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
TODAY...MAINLY VFR CIGS...WITH AREAS OF MVFR CIGS/VSBYS EARLY THIS
MORNING. NOTING LOCAL IFR-LIFR AT KORH AND KACK AT 09Z. EXPECT
CONDITIONS TO IMPROVE TO VFR FOR MOST AREAS...THOUGH MVFR CIGS/VSBYS
MAY LINGER ACROSS CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS THROUGH MIDDAY. APPROACH
OF COLD FRONT WILL BRING RENEWED AREAS OF MVFR CIGS/VSBYS ALONG WITH
SHWRS/TSTMS. SOME STORMS MAY PRODUCE GUSTS TO 40-45 KT AND SMALL
HAIL AT LEAST.

KBOS...AFTER TSTMS EARLY THIS MORNING...MODERATE CONFIDENCE OF VFR
THROUGH MIDDAY. MAY SEE BRIEF PERIOD OF IFR CIGS/VSBYS THROUGH 13Z
IN PATCHY FOG AND LOW CLOUDS. THIS AFTERNOON...MODERATE CONFIDENCE
OF VFR...WITH LOW CONFIDENCE OF MVFR CIGS/VSBYS IN ANY SHWRS/TSTMS

BREAK IN PRECIP. AREAS MVFR CIGS/VSBYS IN PATCHY FOG/LOW CLOUDS...
EXCEPT ACROSS S COAST WHERE IFR CIGS/VSBYS WILL LIKELY RETURN. MAY
SEE BETTER SHOT OF SHOWERS TOWARD DAYBREAK OVER CT VALLEY...THOUGH
LOW CONFIDENCE ON TIMING.

KBOS...HAVE FORECASTED VFR CIGS FOR NOW...BUT MAY SEE PERIODS OF
MVFR CIGS/VSBYS IN SHWRS/TSTMS THROUGH MIDNIGHT...THEN POSSIBLE
PATCHY FOG DEVELOPMENT.

OUTLOOK...SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...
