AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1056 AM EDT THU APR 8 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
EASTERLY WINDS AND MUCH COOLER TEMPERATURES IN THE WAKE OF A COLD
FRONT WILL BE THE MAIN STORY TODAY...ESPECIALLY AT COASTAL
LOCATIONS. A COLD FRONT WILL BRING SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
TONIGHT AND FRIDAY. NEAR SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES AND MAINLY DRY
WEATHER LOOKS TO BE THE CASE THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH
GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS AT TIMES.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
THE BACKDOOR COLD FRONT WAS LOCATED ALONG THE SOUTH COASTAL WATERS AS
OF 1430Z. THE FRONT WILL REMAIN NEARLY STATIONARY THIS AFTERNOON...THEN
BEGIN TO LIFT N THIS EVENING AHEAD OF AN ADVANCING COLD FRONT. A
STRATUS/SC DECK HAS BEEN DRIFTING ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTHWESTERN NH
AND NORTHERN AND NORTHEAST COASTAL MASSACHUSETTS LATE THIS MORNING.
A LOW LEVEL INVERSION IS EXPECTED TO STRENGTHEN LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING ACROSS NORTHERN MASSACHUSETTS AND SOUTHWESTERN NH SO THE
CLOUD COVER IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN AS MOIST NE TO E BLYR FLOW
PERSISTS. PATCHY FOG AND DRIZZLE WILL LIKELY INCREASE IN COVERAGE
LATER TODAY AND TONIGHT.

OTHERWISE THE FORECAST REMAINS ON TRACK. TWEAKED SKY COVER...HOURLY
TEMPERATURES AND DEWPOINTS A BIT. TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE LOWER CT
VALLEY HAVE BEEN RISING QUICKLY AS THE ONSHORE FLOW HAS HAD LESS
OF AN INFLUENCE ACROSS THAT REGION.

TEMPERATURES ON THE EAST COAST OF MASS WILL NOT RISE MUCH TODAY DUE
TO PERSISTENT ONSHORE FLOW.

DESPITE THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY DRAPED ACROSS OR NEAR SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND TODAY...MUCH OF THE COLUMN WILL BE TOO DRY FOR PRECIPITATION.
WE THEREFORE KEPT THE FORECAST DRY FOR TODAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
A COLD FRONT OR OCCLUDED FRONT WILL APPROACH SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
TONIGHT. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR AN INCREASING CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
PERHAPS A THUNDERSTORM OR TWO...ESPECIALLY AFTER MIDNIGHT. WENT WITH
CAT POPS FOR TONIGHT...MAINLY IN THE WEST...BUT APPROACHING THE
EASTERN MASS COASTLINE TOWARD 12Z.

CAT POPS LOOK REASONABLE FOR AT LEAST THE EASTERN HALF OF THE
FORECAST AREA THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY AS FRONT SLOWS. IN FACT...IT MAY END
UP RAINING FOR MUCH OF THE DAY ACROSS EASTERNMOST MASS...ESPECIALLY
THE CAPE AND ISLANDS. FUTURE SHIFTS MAY HAVE TO HOLD BACK HIGH POPS
IN THE EAST LONGER THAN CURRENTLY FORECAST. SOUTHERLY
FLOW...CLOUDS...AND SHOWERY WEATHER WILL ALLOW FOR COOL TEMPS FRIDAY.
AGAIN...ISOLD TO SCT EMBEDDED THUNDER POSSIBLE.

AS FOR AS QPF GOES...WE FEEL THAT A GENERAL QUARTER TO HALF INCH OF
RAIN WILL FALL AT MOST LOCATIONS. HOWEVER...THE HIGHER NUMBERS IN THE
RANGE WILL PROBABLY BE CONFINED TO EASTERN AND ESPECIALLY
SOUTHEASTERN MASS. IN FACT LOCALIZED THREE-QUARTER INCH AMOUNTS WILL
BE POSSIBLE ON THE CAPE AND ISLANDS. THESE RAINFALL AMOUNTS SHOULD
NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT AREA RIVERS.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
FRIDAY NIGHT...MODEL CONSENSUS THAT THE SURFACE COLD FRONT MOVES
EAST OF MASSACHUSETTS FRIDAY EVENING WITH THE SYSTEM MOVING INTO THE
MARITIMES OVERNIGHT. THE TRAILING UPPER TROF AND COLD POOL WILL BE
OVER THE EASTERN LAKES/MID ATLANTIC STATES DURING THE NIGHT.
LINGERING SHOWERS POSSIBLE ALONG THE EAST MASS COAST...ESPECIALLY
CAPE COD AND ISLANDS...BUT OTHERWISE THE TREND WILL BE FOR CLEARING
AND COOLER/DRIER. THE UPPER TROF MOVES OVER WESTERN SECTIONS LATE AT
NIGHT...WHICH SHOULD BRING AN INCREASE OF CLOUDS AND WIDELY SCATTERED
RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS TO WESTERN MASS/SOUTHERN NH. SKY COVER GRIDS COME
MOSTLY FROM THE NAM...WHICH HANDLES THE UPPER TROF CLOUD COVER
BEST...AND TEMPS ARE A BLEND OF MAV AND MET VALUES.

SATURDAY...UPPER TROF MOVES EAST OF MASS/NH BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON.
THIS WILL BRING CLOUDS AND ISOLATED SHOWERS MAINLY TO AREAS ALONG AND
NORTH OF THE NH BORDER DURING THE MORNING...THEN CLEARING. SUFFICIENT
COOLING ALOFT TO MIX 25-30 KNOT WEST WINDS TO THE SURFACE...SO A
GUSTY DAY.

SUNDAY...SHORTWAVE IN THE UPPER FLOW RACES SOUTHEAST FROM THE GREAT
LAKES. MODEL TIMING IS SIMILAR EXCEPT FOR THE NAM WHICH IS 6 HOURS
SLOWER. CONSENSUS TIMING WOULD BRING THE SURFACE FRONT THROUGH
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND SUNDAY MIDDAY AND MOVING SOUTH OF THE COAST
SUNDAY AFTERNOON. LIMITED MOISTURE SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO GENERATE SOME
CLOUDS...BUT PCPN IS MORE OF A QUESTION. COLD POOL ALOFT STAYS NORTH
OF OUR AREA SO INSTABILITY WILL BE LIMITED.

MONDAY-WEDNESDAY...MARITIME UPPER LOW AND BUILDING MIDWEST UPPER
RIDGE. THIS WILL BRING AN INCREASING NORTHWEST FLOW MONDAY WITH MAY
EVOLVE INTO A NORTH FLOW BY WEDNESDAY. WEAK DISTURBANCES MOVE
THROUGH THE FLOW EACH DAY...TIMING THEM THIS FAR OUT WOULD BE LESS
THAN ACCURATE. IN ANY CASE...THE WARMEST AIR SHOULD STAY WEST OF US
AS THE FLOW BECOMES MORE PRONE TO BACKDOOR FRONTS AND REFRIGERATION
FROM THE GULF OF MAINE. EXPECT DRY WEATHER THIS PERIOD WITH
TEMPERATURES 50S TO LOWER 60S...WARMEST IN THE CT VALLEY.

&&

.AVIATION /15Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
TODAY...MVFR CIGS HAVE DEVELOPED IN THE EASTERLY FLOW PRIMARILY ALONG
AND N OF ROUTE 2. LOW CONFIDENCE ON THE TIMING AND SOUTHERN EXTENT OF
STRATUS/STRATOCUMULUS DECK THIS AFTERNOON BUT DID MENTION SOME
SCT MVFR CLOUDS WORKING IN ACROSS EASTERN MASS AND RI THIS AFTERNOON.

TONIGHT...LOW CLOUDS AND FOG WILL LIKELY FORM QUITE RAPIDLY THIS
EVENING FROM EAST TO WEST. MODERATE CONFIDENCE OF IFR-LIFR
CIGS/VSBYS WITH AREAS OF FOG AND DRIZZLE...ESPECIALLY ACRS EASTERN
MASS AND RI.

FRIDAY...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE IFR/LIFR ST/FOG WITH
SHOWERS/ISOLD THUNDER DURING THE MORNING...IMPROVING TO MVFR/IFR IN
THE AFTERNOON. IMPROVEMENT TO VFR FORESEEN AT BAF AND BDL DURING THE
AFTN.

OUTLOOK...FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY....

FRIDAY NIGHT...LINGERING MVFR EARLY HYA-ACK...OTHERWISE VFR. MODERATE
CONFIDENCE.

SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY...VFR. MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

&&

.MARINE...
TODAY...EASTERLY WINDS WILL INCREASE A BIT WITH GUSTS UP TO 20 KT ON
THE EAST COASTAL WATERS TODAY...WITH SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WINDS ACROSS THE
EXTREME SOUTHERN COASTAL WATERS. SEAS ON THE OUTER WATERS WILL HOVER
IN THE 4 TO 6 FT RANGE FOR MOST OF TODAY.

TONIGHT...WINDS SWITCH TO SOUTHERLY ACROSS MOST MARINE ZONES AS WARM
FRONT LIFTS NORTH. AS OF RIGHT NOW IT LOOKS LIKE SPEEDS WILL AVERAGE
LESS THAN 20 KT. SEAS ON THE OUTER WATERS LIKELY CONTINUE IN THE 4 TO
6 FOOT RANGE.

FRIDAY...S/SW WINDS SHOULD REMAIN MOSTLY BELOW SCA CRITERIA AS LLJ
MOVES TO THE EAST. HOWEVER A BRIEF PERIOD OF SCA WINDS POSSIBLE E
WATERS IN THE MORNING BEFORE THE LLJ MOVES EAST. LOW LEVEL INVERSION
SHOULD KEEP GUSTS MOSTLY BELOW SCA. UNDERCUT WNAWAVE SEAS WHICH ARE
TOO HIGH IN SW FLOW BUT WE HAVE SEAS UP TO 5-7 FEET SOUTHERN WATERS.

OUTLOOK...FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...

FRI NIGHT...WINDS SHIFT TO THE WEST WITH SCA GUSTS TO 25 KT LIKELY
DEVELOPING IN CAA PATTERN.

SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...W/NW FLOW WITH SCA GUSTS 25-30 KT SATURDAY.
SUNDAY GUSTS WILL BE AROUND 20 KNOTS OR IN THE LOW 20S. ROUGH SEAS
CONTINUE ESPECIALLY ON THE SOUTHERN AND SOUTHEAST OUTER WATERS.

MON...NW FLOW WITH WINDS BELOW SCA.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
LESS HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS EXPECTED TODAY AND TONIGHT DUE TO COOL AND
MOIST ONSHORE FLOW.

&&

.CLIMATE...
HIGH TEMPERATURE RECORDS WERE SET YESTERDAY AT ALL FOUR CLIMATE
SITES. RECORD REPORTS WERE ISSUED YESTERDAY EVENING. THE TEMPERATURE
WARMED ONE ADDITIONAL DEGREE AT WINDSOR LOCKS CT AND WORCESTER MASS.
THE REPORTS FOR THESE TWO STATIONS WERE UPDATED EARLY THIS MORNING
TO REFLECT THIS CHANGE.
