AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
417 PM EDT THU JUN 24 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL ACCOMPANY A FRONTAL PASSAGE
EARLY THIS EVENING. WEAK HIGH PRESSURE THEN BRINGS DRY AND LESS HUMID
WEATHER LATER TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY AND EARLY SATURDAY. ANOTHER COLD
FRONT MOVES ACROSS OUR REGION LATE SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT. THE
FRONT WILL STALL JUST SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND SUNDAY. ANOTHER FRONT THEN
MOVES THROUGH ON MONDAY. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE NORTHEAST USA
TOWARD MIDWEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...

SEVERE WEATHER RISK...
APPEARS WEST WINDS IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER CONTINUES TO LIMIT LOW LEVEL
CONVERGENCE AND AREAL COVERAGE OF TSTMS. ALTHOUGH AT 4 PM TSTM
ENTERING NW ORH COUNTY IS BEGINNING TO STRENGTHEN. THIS COULD BLOSSOM
INTO A LINE SEGMENT AS IT MOVES INTO EASTERN MA AND NRN RI GIVEN 50
KT OF 0-6KM SHEAR AND MLCAPES OF 1500J/KG ACRS THIS AREA. THESE
PARAMETERS WILL SUPPORT DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL.

AT 20Z/4PM ACTUALLY SURFACE FRONT LOCATED ACROSS CNTRL NY AND PA.
THIS FRONT SHOULD CONTINUE TO RACE EASTWARD REACHING THE EASTERN MA
COAST AROUND 00Z/8PM. CONVECTION CONTINUES TO FIRE ALONG AND JUST
AHEAD OF THIS BOUNDARY.  SO EXPECTING THE RISK OF STRONG TO SEVERE
TSTMS TO CONTINUE UNTIL 8 PM...ESPECIALLY EASTERN MA AND RI BUT
LIKELY A BIT EARLIER WESTERN PORTIONS OF CT AND MA.

LATER THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT...
BEHIND THE FRONTAL PASSAGE NOTICEABLY LESS HUMID AIRMASS OVERSPREADS
THE REGION WITH DEW PTS FALLING INTO THE 50S BY DAYBREAK. BECOMING
MOSTLY CLEAR LATER TONIGHT. WHERE TSTMS OCCUR EARLIER THIS EVENING
ANY RESIDUAL MOISTURE FROM HEAVY DOWNPOURS MAY YIELD SOME PATCH FOG
TOWARD MORNING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...

NICE DAY COMING UP WITH WEAK RIDGING ACROSS THE AREA ALONG WITH LESS
HUMID AIRMASS. COOL AIR ALOFT MAY YIELD SOME SCATTERED STRATO-CU
CLOUDS TO DEVELOP. OTHERWISE EXPECT LOTS OF SUNSHINE TO WARM TEMPS
INTO THE LOW 80S. COOLER ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST AS WEAK PGRAD
SUPPORTS AFTN SEABREEZES.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
FRIDAY NIGHT...HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OFFSHORE. EXPECT DRY WEATHER AND
LIGHT WIND. DEWPOINTS IN THE 50S...SO MIN TEMPS EXPECTED IN THE 50S
AND LOWER 60S. MIN TEMPS ARE A BLEND OF MOS.

SATURDAY...COLD FRONT DROPS SOUTH FROM ST LAWRENCE VALLEY DURING THE
DAY. MODEL CONSENSUS MOVES IT CENTRAL NH/EASTERN NY BY 18Z AND ACROSS
OUR AREA ON A BOS-NYC LINE SATURDAY EVENING. LIFTED INDEX FORECAST
BLEOW ZERO DURING PASSAGE...850 MB WINDS 25-30 KNOTS WITH 500 MB
WINDS 45 TO 50 KNOTS. WILL CONTINUE WITH CHANCE POPS FOR
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS MAINLY AFTERNOON/EVENING.

MAX TEMPS ARE ADJUSTED FROM A BLEND OF MOS...INCHED UP A COUPLE OF
DEGREES BASED ON SUNNY SKIES THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON AND 850 MB
TEMPS 14-16C.

SATURDAY NIGHT...THE FRONT SLIDES SOUTH OF THE REGION OVERNIGHT WITH
CONVECTION DIMINISHING. WILL CONTINUE CHANCE POPS EARLY...THEN
DIMINISH NORTH TO SOUTH DURING THE OVERNIGHT.

SUNDAY-MONDAY...DIFFERENCES IN THE MODELS AS TO HOW FAR SOUTH THE
COLD FRONT GETS...WITH THE EARLY GUIDENCE MOVING IT FAR ENOUGH FOR
CLEARING NORTH OF BOSTON. ANOTHER DISTURBANCE THEN MOVES A FRONT
THROUGH THE NORTHEAST USA MONDAY OR MONDAY NIGHT. WITH SUCH
DISAGREEMENT...LOW CONFIDENCE IN THIS PART OF THE FORECAST. WILL
GO WITH DRY FORECAST FOR SUNDAY...THEN BRING CHANCE POPS ON MONDAY
WITH NEXT FRONT.

TUESDAY-THURSDAY...HUDSON BAY UPPER LOW MOVES SOUTHEAST ACROSS QUEBEC
WITH THE ECMWF A LITTLE FARTHER SOUTH AND WEST AND THE GLOBAL FARTHER
EAST. WITH THIS UNCERTAINTY...BEST BET FOR ANY SHOWERS WOULD BE IN
OUR NORTHWEST ZONES...WILL GO WITH SLIGHT CHANCE POPS THERE AND DRY
FARTHER SOUTH AND EAST. DRY ALL ZONES THURSDAY AS SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS IN.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
