AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CARIBOU ME
433 PM EST WED FEB 24 2010
.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WILL TRACK NORTH TO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND TONIGHT AND
WEAKEN. A SECOND...STRONGER LOW WILL THEN TRACK NORTH FROM THE MID
ATLANTIC COAST THURSDAY INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND BY LATER
THURSDAY AND BECOME NEARLY STATIONARY INTO THE WEEKEND. THIS WILL
KEEP THE WEATHER PATTERN MOIST AND UNSETTLED THROUGH SUNDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
WITH A LARGE SCALE BLOCKING RIDGE TO THE EAST AND A LARGE SCALE
DEEPENING TROF TO THE WEST OF THE STATE UNSETTLED CONDITIONS WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH THE NIGHT TONIGHT. A WEAKENING LOW OVER SOUTHERN
NEW ENGLAND WILL GIVE WAY TO A STRENGTHENING LOW ASSOCIATED WITH
THE LONGWAVE DEEPENING TROF TO THE W. AS THIS STRENGTHENING
OCCURS THE SELY FLOW TO ITS N WILL FURTHER EFFECT THE CAR CWA. THE
BEST FORCING FOR PRECIP LOOKS TO BE ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST DUE
TO ENHANCED COASTAL FRONTOGENESIS...AND FURTHER INLAND OVER THE
HIGHER TERRAIN OF PISCATAQUIS COUNTY AND WESTWARD WHERE UPSLOPE
FLOW AND ISENTROPIC LIFT WILL WILL ENHANCE PRECIP POTENTIAL. A
RIDGE OF HIGHER THETA-E AIR WRAPPING NORTH OF THE LOW WILL ENHANCE
THE LLVL FRONTOGENESIS OVER THE SW PORTIONS OF THE CWA AS THE NEW
LOW MOVES NE AS WELL. GIVEN ALL THIS FORCING...WHICH STRENGTHENS
OVER TIME AS THE LOW STRENGTHENS...WILL ALLOW FOR HIGHEST QPF TO
BE OVER THE SW PORTIONS OF THE CWA AND IMMEDIATE COAST THROUGH 12Z
THU.
AS FOR P-TYPE...WITH THE THETA-E RIDGE COMES ENHANCED WARM FLOW
WRAPPING AROUND THE NORTH SIDE OF THE LOW. GIVEN THIS TEMPS WILL
BE SLOW TO COOL DOWNEAST WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR MISTILY LIQUID
OVERNIGHT. FURTHER N...WHERE BEST WAA WILL START LATER...WILL
ALLOW FOR SNOW AS LLVLS COOL A BIT DUE TO NATURAL DIURNAL TREND.
MODELS SEEM FAR TOO HIGH IN THEIR SNOW RATIOS AS WARM AIR KEEPS
THE BEST SNOW GROWTH REGIME WELL ALOFT AND ABOVE THE BEST LLVL
FORCING.
USED A BLEND OF THE RFC/HPC FOR QPF AND USED A MANUAL 8 TO 1
RATIO WHERE SNOW WAS MOST LIKELY. USED A SREF/GFS BLEND...TWEAKED
MANUALLY...FOR POPS...SKY...AND WINDS. USED A GUIDANCE BLEND FOR
TEMPS...ADJUSTED UP AS THEY SEEMED TOO LOW OVERNIGHT.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY/...
A PROLONGED STORM SYSTEM WILL AFFECT THE REGION THROUGH THIS
PERIOD OF THE FORECAST. THIS WILL BRING PERIODS OF PRECIPITATION
TO THE REGION.
WE HAVE ISSUED A WINTER STORM WARNING FOR ZONES 3/4/10 THROUGH
FRIDAY. POTENTIAL IS THERE FOR SEVERAL INCHES OF HEAVY WET SNOW
THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. THE SNOW MAY MIX WITH SLEET AT TIMES
ESPECIALLY DURING THURSDAY. A MORE SIGNIFICANT SLUG OF MOISTURE
WILL MOVE UP ACROSS THE AREA LATER THURSDAY NIGHT AND INTO FRIDAY.
CURRENT THINKING IS WE MAY SEE STORM TOTAL SNOW ACCUMULATIONS HERE
IN EXCESS OF A FOOT BY FRIDAY...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE HIGH
TERRAIN. ALTHOUGH EVENT WILL BE OF LONG DURATION...DECIDED TO UPGRADE
TO A WARNING SINCE THE COMBINATION OF HEAVY WET SNOW AND BRISK
EAST WINDS COULD POTENTIALLY HAVE SOME IMPACTS WITH REGARD TO
DOWNED LIMBS AND POWER LINES. WE HAVE KEPT THE ADVISORY FOR
ZONES 5 AND 31 SINCE LESS SNOW AND MORE IN THE WAY OF RAIN OR
MIXED PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED HERE. FOR THE REMAINDER OF
NORTHERN MAINE AND THE ST JOHN VALLEY PRECIPITATION WILL BE SLOW
TO SPREAD ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT AS ERLY WINDS
DOWNSLOPING OFF THE HIER TERRAIN TO OUR EAST KEEPS PRECIPITATION
AT BAY AT LEAST INITIALLY. THUS LITTLE IN THE WAY OF SIGNIFICANT
SNOW ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED HERE. ACROSS THE REMAINDER AND
CENTRAL AND DOWNEAST MAINE THE PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO BE
MAINLY IN THE FORM OF RAIN. WILL HAVE TO WATCH THE POTENTIAL
FOR FLOODING HERE. PLEASE REFER TO THE HYDROLOGY SECTION FOR MORE
DETAILS REGARDING HYDRO ISSUES.
ALSO...WE HAVE CONTINUED THE HIGH WIND WATCH FOR ALL OF DOWNEAST
MAINE THURSDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE WEATHER WILL REMAIN UNSETTLED UNTIL HIGH PRESSURE MOVES BACK
IN ON TUESDAY. ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM NEARS THE AREA BY THE
END OF THE WEEK...BUT WILL LIKELY REMAIN FAR ENOUGH OFFSHORE AND
NOT HAVE AN APPRECIABLE AFFECT ON THE WEATHER OVER MAINE. GMOS
USED AS BASIS FOR EXTENDED FORECAST.
&&
.AVIATION /21Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
NEAR TERM: LOW PRESSURE STRENGTHENING AND MOVING NE FROM THE MID
ATLANTIC WILL REACH SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND BY EARLY THURSDAY
MORNING. GIVEN THIS...MVFR CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST OVER THE
NORTHERN THREE TAF SITES THROUGH THE EVENING AND EARLY NIGHT
TONIGHT AND GIVE WAY TO IFR CONDITIONS IN -RA AND -SN BY EARLY
MORNING. KBGR AND KBHB WILL BE UNDER BEST FORCING FOR PRECIP
TONIGHT AS SE FLOW STRENGTHENS...THEREFORE IFR CONDITIONS ARE
LIKELY THERE. WORST CONDITIONS WILL BE DURING PERIODS OF HEAVIER
RA AND SN. WINDS WILL ALSO STRENGTHEN FROM THE S AND SE THROUGH THE
NIGHT TONIGHT.
SHORT TERM: MVFR AND IFR CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST PARTICULARLY IN
HEAVY BANDS OF RA AND SN THROUGH FRIDAY. S AND SE WINDS WILL
INCREASE ESPECIALLY ACROSS KBGR AND KBHB LATE THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY
AS LLVL JET STRENGTHENS OVER THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE STATE.
&&
.MARINE...
NEAR TERM: LOW PRES WILL WEAKEN AND APPROACH THE WATERS OVERNIGHT.
A SECOND LOW PRES WILL STRENGTHEN OVER THE MID ATLANTIC BY EARLY

.HYDROLOGY...
FLOODING CONCERNS FROM THE DOWNEAST COAST NORTH TO STATE ROUTE
6 THURSDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY DUE TO SIGNIFICANT STORM TOTAL
PRECIPITATION POTENTIAL. EXPECT MAINSTEM RIVERS TO RISE ON THE
ORDER OF 2-4 FEET BUT TO REMAIN WITHIN THEIR BANKS...ENSEMBLE
GUIDANCE SUPPORTS THIS. THE EXCEPTION WOULD BE ON RIVERS WHERE
RIVER ICE OR ICE JAMS EXIST...ESPECIALLY THE PISCATAQUIS. STILL
SIGNIFICANT SD ALONG THE AIRLINE AND SNOW MELT WILL BE A WILDCARD
IN THIS EXCESSIVE RUNOFF EVENT. SNOW MAY SERVE TO STORE HEAVY
PRECIP AND DELAY RUNOFF.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
WINDS AND SEAS DO INCREASE IN TIME THURSDAY FOR MORNING TIDE
CYCLE SO WILL CANCEL COASTAL FLOOD WATCH FOR THAT TIME PERIOD.
WILL CONTINUE WATCH FOR THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY MORNING TIDE
CYCLE. EXTRA-TROPICAL STORM SURGE MODEL INDICATES 1 TO 2 FOOT
SURGE. CONCERNED THAT THIS MAY BE A LITTLE LOW. OTHER CONCERN IS
LARGE WAVES WITH NAM/SWAN INDICATING MAXIMUM WAVE HEIGHTS COULD
EXCEED 20 FEET IN ZONE 29 AND SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 15 AND 20 FEET
ZONE 30. THIS COULD CAUSE ADDITIONAL SURGE DUE TO WAVE SETUP ALONG
EXPOSED BEACHES. ALSO WAVE RUNUP COULD PRODUCE BEACH EROSION AND
OVER-TOP BEACH BERMS AND LOW LINING ROADS ALONG EXPOSED BEACHES.
