AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
304 PM EST TUE NOV 23 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
SOUTHWEST FLOW AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT WILL BRING
UNSEASONABLY MILD WEATHER TO THE REGION TODAY. A COLD FRONT WILL
MOVE ACROSS THE REGION THIS EVENING FOLLOWED BY WINDY AND COOLER
WEATHER WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE MOVES IN FOR THANKSGIVING...THEN
LOW PRESSURE WILL BRING RAIN THANKSGIVING NIGHT INTO FRIDAY...WITH
A PERIOD OF ICE POSSIBLE ACROSS WESTERN MA AND SOUTHWEST NH THURSDAY
NIGHT. DRY WEATHER AND BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED NEXT
WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
A LINE OF SHOWERS IS MOVING ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND THIS
AFTERNOON. THESE SHOWERS ARE DIMINISHING AS THEY MOVE ACROSS THE
AREA. HOURLY RAINFALLS ARE RANGING FROM A TRACE TO 0.05. A SECOND
LINE OF SHOWERS IS MOVING EASTWARD ACROSS NEW YORK STATE. IF THIS
LINE HOLDS TOGETHER...THERE MAY BE HEAVIER PRECIPITATION. THESE
SHOWERS ARE MOVING FAIRLY QUICKLY SO NO FLOODING CONCERNS ARE
EXPECTED.

THE COLD FRONT IS APPROACHING CENTRAL NEW YORK STATE. EXPECT WINDS
TO SHIFT TO THE WEST-NORTHWEST AND BECOME GUSTY AS THE FRONT MOVES
THROUGH LATE THIS AFTERNOON-EARLY THIS EVENING. ANY SHOWERS THAT
ARE STILL IN THE AREA WILL MOVE OUT AS THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH.

COLDER...DRIER AIR MOVES IN BEHIND THE FRONT ON THE NORTHWESTERLY
WINDS. LOW TEMPERATURES WILL DROP INTO THE 30S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY/...

THE COLD ADVECTION WILL START DRAWING SOME OF THE HIGHER MOMENTUM
AIR ALOFT DOWN TO THE SURFACE. MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOW LAPSE RATES
REACHING 7-8C/KM BY 06Z...THE NAM HAS 9C/KM. WINDS ALOFT INCREASE
TO 30-35 KNOTS DURING THIS TIME. THE MAIN UNCERTAINTY FOR TONIGHT
IS HOW MUCH WIND WILL REACH THE SURFACE AS WIND GUSTS...AND HOW
SOON WILL THIS START. IF THE 00Z NAM IS RIGHT THEN WE WILL HAVE
GUSTS TO 40 KNOTS BY MIDNIGHT. IF THE GLOBAL MODELS ARE CORRECT
THEN GUSTS WILL BE CLOSER TO 30-35 KNOTS. WE HAVE TENDED TOWARD
THE LOWER VALUES. IF THE MIXING WERE TO COME ON STRONGER...40
KNOT GUSTS WOULD BE POSSIBLE LATER TONIGHT AND REQUIRE A WIND
ADVISORY.

WEDNESDAY...
UPPER TROF SWINGS ACROSS NEW ENGLAND WEDNESDAY MORNING SUPPORTED
BY THE LEFT EXIT REGION OF ANOTHER UPPER JET...AND BY AN UPPER
COLD POOL WITH -25C TO -30C AIR. MODEL CROSS SECTIONS SHOW
ABUNDANT MOISTURE BETWEEN 800 AND 900 MB WEDNESDAY MORNING AND
EARLY AFTERNOON. EXPECT A PERIOD OF DIURNAL CLOUDS...BUT WITH THE
AIR SUFFICIENTLY DRY TO SUPPORT NIL POPS. TEMPS ALOFT SHOULD
SUPPORT MAX TEMPS IN THE UPPER 30S TO MID 40S.

THE MAIN CONCERN WEDNESDAY WILL BE THE WIND. THE COLD AIR ALOFT
AND SURFACE HEATING WILL MIX STRONG WINDS ALOFT TO THE SURFACE IN
GUSTS. WINDS OF 40-50 KNOTS AT 925 MB AND 850 MB WILL SUPPORT
GUSTS OF AT LEAST 40 KNOTS. A WIND ADVISORY CONTINUES TO BE LIKELY
FOR WEDNESDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...
 * RAIN LIKELY THANKSGIVING NIGHT INTO FRI WITH A PERIOD OF
   ICE POSSIBLE IN THE DISTANT INTERIOR
 * DRY AND COOL NEXT WEEKEND

STRONG PROGRESSIVE TROFS CROSSING OUR LONGITUDE ACROSS CANADA
NOTWITHSTANDING...OVERALL LONG WAVE PATTERN ACROSS USA SEEMS TO
FAVOR A NEGATIVE PNA PATTERN WITH PERSISTENT RIDGE OVER SE USA.
THUS...WE WILL BE VULNERABLE TO PASSING INTRUSIONS OF COLD AIR BUT
UNLIKELY TO REMAIN PERSISTENTLY COLD OVER THIS LONG TERM PERIOD.

MAIN FEATURE OF INTEREST WILL BE OCCLUSION PASSING THROUGH FRI
MORNING. REST OF PERIOD LOOKS DRY FOR NOW.

IN MORE DETAIL...EXPECT CLEAR SKIES AND CHILLY CONDITIONS WED NIGHT
INTO THANKSGIVING MORNING. GUSTY NW WINDS WED EVENING SHOULD
DIMINISH OVERNIGHT. INCREASING OVERRUNNING CLOUDS LATE THU MORNING
THRU THE AFTERNOON WITH A CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION SPREADING W TO NE
LATE IN THE DAY. DYNAMICS ASSOCIATED WITH THE OVERRUNNING DO NOT
LOOK TOO IMPRESSIVE SO EXPECT PRECIPITATION TO BE LIGHT. DO THINK
THE LIGHT PRECIPITATION WILL SPREAD RAPIDLY FROM WESTERN CT ACROSS
NORTHERN MA AND SW NH LATE IN THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING BEFORE
FILLING IN ACROSS SE SECTIONS. NAM LOOKS TOO SLOW WITH THE ONSET OF
OVERRUNNING PRECIPITATION. HAVE GONE WITH THE FASTER GFS FOR
NOW...ALTHOUGH NOTED THAT THE 00Z ECMWF IS A LITTLE SLOWER.

HAVE GONE A BIT LOWER THAN MOST GUIDANCE FOR THANKSGIVING TEMPERATURES AS
BELIEVE INCREASING CLOUDS WILL TEMPER DIURNAL TEMPERATURE RISE.

PTYPE MAY BE AN ISSUE FOR EAST SLOPES OF BERKSHIRES...MOST OF
FRANKLIN COUNTY AND SW NH FOR A TIME THU NIGHT...ESPECIALLY SINCE
PRECIPITATION WILL BEGIN IN AN AIR MASS OF LOW DEWPOINTS. AS COLUMN
COOLS FROM EVAPORATIVE COOLING MAY SEE LIGHT RAIN AT ONSET TURN TO A
PERIOD OF SOME LIGHT SNOW AND SLEET AND THEN A CHANGE BACK TO LIGHT
RAIN OR LIGHT FREEZING RAIN. POCKETS OF LIGHT FREEZING RAIN MAY
PERSIST WELL INTO THE NIGHT ACROSS NW MA/SW NH. EXPECT LIGHT AMOUNTS
BUT MAY BE SLIPPERY IN SPOTS FOR A WHILE THU NIGHT...AND IT IS
POSSIBLE THAT WE MAY NEED TO ISSUE OUR FIRST WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY
OF THE SEASON FOR PORTIONS OF NW MA AND SW NH.

MODELS SUGGEST TRIPLE POINT CROSSING OUR FORECAST AREA ON FRI.
SUSPECT GFS MAY BE A LITTLE FAST. MAY SEE SOME QUARTER TO HALF INCH
AMOUNTS AND HAVE BROUGHT POPS MOST LOCATIONS TO HIGH LIKELY...AND
EVEN A SWATH OF CATEGORICAL NE CT THRU THE HIGH TERRAIN OF SW NH.
ISSUE MAY NOT BE SO MUCH WHETHER OR NOT WILL HAVE PRECIPITATION BUT
JUST WHEN MOST OF IT FALLS. HAVE GONE WITH GENERALLY A TIMING
CONSENSUS OF THE 00Z GFS AND ECMWF RUNS. BELIEVE PTYPE WILL BE ALL
RAIN ON FRI...EXCEPT POSSIBLY SOME SNOW MIXING IN AT END OVER THE
HIGH TERRAIN OF NW MA AND SW NH.

COLDER AND DRIER AIR ON BLUSTERY NW WINDS MOVE INTO REGION LATE FRI
INTO SAT.  WILL LOOK FOR GRADUALLY MODERATING TEMPERATURES SUN
THROUGH TUE AS SURFACE HIGH SLOWLY DRIFTS OFFSHORE AND 500 MB HEIGHT
BUILD OVER THE EASTERN SEABOARD.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THROUGH 00Z...HIGH CONFIDENCE. OVERCAST VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED.
COULD SEE CIGS AS LOW AS 050-060. LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS WILL MOVE
THROUGH BETWEEN 18-22Z WITH BRIEF MVFR CONDITIONS ACCOMPANYING.

TONIGHT...HIGH CONFIDENCE.  ANY MVFR CONDITIONS WILL QUICKLY
IMPROVE TO VFR. WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE WEST-NORTHWEST AND MAY GUST
AROUND 25 TO 30 KNOTS.

WEDNESDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE. VFR. NORTHWEST WINDS 20-25 KNOTS
GUSTING TO NEAR 40 KNOTS. MEDIUM CONFIDENCE IN WINDS GUSTING
HIGHER THAN 40 KTS NORTH OF THE MASS PIKE. LOW CONFIDENCE SOUTH OF
THE PIKE. WINDS SHOULD DIMINISH OVERNIGHT.

KBOS TERMINAL...MEDIUM TO HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAF. BRIEF PERIOD OF
MVFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE IN SHOWERS LATE THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING.
LOW TO MEDIUM CONFIDENCE ON WIND FORECAST FOR WEDNESDAY. GUSTS
MOST LIKELY LESS THAN 40 KTS.

OUTLOOK...THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...

THU...VFR WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE.

THU NIGHT...LOWERING EARLY TO WIDESPREAD MVFR CIGS/VSBYS WITH
POCKETS IFR CONDITIONS. AREAS OF SURFACE ICE WESTERN MA AND SW NH.

FRI...WIDESPREAD MVFR CIGS/VSBYS WITH POCKETS OF IFR IMPROVING
FROM W TO E DURING THE AFTERNOON.

SAT...HIGH CONFIDENCE VFR...BUT GUSTY NW SURFACE WINDS POSSIBLE.

&&

.MARINE...
TODAY...
SOUTHWEST FLOW MUCH OF THE DAY. WINDS SHOULD REMAIN BELOW SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS BUT WITH GUSTS AROUND 20 KNOTS OR IN THE LOW
20S. SEAS SHOULD ALSO REMAIN BELOW SCA LEVELS WITH VALUES OF 2 TO
4 FEET. COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH LATE IN THE DAY WITH A BRIEF
PERIOD OF SHOWERS.

TONIGHT...
COLD FRONT MOVES OUT TO SEA. WIND SHIFT TO NORTHWEST AND INCREASE.
WIND GUSTS SHOULD APPROACH GALE FORCE STARTING JUST AFTER MIDNIGHT
ON SOME OF THE WATERS AND BY MORNING ALL WATERS. A GALE WATCH HAS
BEEN EXTENDED INTO THE LATE NIGHT HOURS OF TONIGHT.

WEDNESDAY...
HIGH PROBABILITY OF NORTHWEST GALES T0 40 KNOTS...MEDIUM
PROBABILITY FOR 45 KNOTS. GALE WATCH CONTINUES THROUGH THE DAY.

OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...

ANTICIPATE NW GALES PERSISTING INTO WED NIGHT...DIMINISHING BY THU
MORNING. TIGHTENING W TO NW GRADIENT AND AT LEAST MODERATELY
STRONG COLD ADVECTION WILL LIKELY RESULT IN AT LEAST SMALL CRAFT
CONDITIONS LATE FRI INTO SAT MORNING...WITH WINDS POSSIBLY
APPROACHING GALE FORCE OVER THE OUTER WATERS FRI NIGHT AND SAT
