AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAY ME
327 PM EDT THU OCT 14 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPING NEAR THE DELMARVA PENINSULA WILL RAPIDLY
INTENSIFY AS IT TRACKS TO NEAR BOSTON BY EARLY FRIDAY. THE LOW
WILL THEN STALL OVER THE GULF OF MAINE FRIDAY AND SATURDAY BEFORE
MOVING EAST LATE SATURDAY. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING HEAVY RAIN AND
STRONG WINDS TO LOCATIONS MAINLY NEAR THE COAST AND TO HIGHER
TERRAIN. THE POTENTIAL FOR RAIN TO MIX WITH OR CHANGE TO WET SNOW
ABOVE 2000 FEET WILL DEVELOP BY LATE FRIDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
THICKER CLOUDS WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD NORTH AND EAST TONIGHT AS
THE POTENT UPPER IMPULSE ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY OVER OHIO VALLEY
THIS AFTERNOON MOVES SOUTHEAST...THEN SPINS UP A SIGNIFICANT
COASTAL LOW VICINITY OF THE DELMARVA REGION THIS EVENING. RAIN
WILL QUICKLY RACE NORTHEAST TONIGHT AND BECOME HEAVY AT TIMES
BEFORE DAWN IN ASSOCIATION WITH 70 KNOT LOW LEVEL JET. THERE WILL
BE ABOUT A 6 HOUR WINDOW OF STRONG SURFACE WINDS TRANSLATING
NORTHEAST MAINLY ALONG THE COAST LATE TONIGHT AND FRIDAY MORNING.
A WIND ADVISORY HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR SW MAINE AND SEACOAST NEW
HAMPSHIRE WITH A HIGH WIND WARNING FOR THE MID COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
HEAVY RAIN DIMINISHES BY AFTERNOON BUT WITH SYSTEM BECOMING
NEARLY VERTICALLY STACKED EXPECT OCCASIONAL LIGHT TO MODERATE RAIN
TO LINGER INTO FRIDAY NIGHT BEFORE PRECIPITATION DIMINISHES TO
SHOWERS. LOWERING FREEZING LEVEL THROUGHOUT FRIDAY MAY ALLOW RAIN
TO MIX WITH WET SNOW ABOVE 2000 FEET BY LATE IN THE DAY AND FRIDAY
NIGHT. THE WINDOW OF HEAVY RAIN LATE TONIGHT AND FRIDAY MORNING
COULD RESULT IN URBAN AND SMALL STREAM ISSUES...WITH A SECONDARY
ISSUE FOR LARGER BASINS...RIVERS...LATER FRIDAY OR FRIDAY NIGHT.
BASED ON LATEST MODEL QPF'S HAVE POSTED A FLOOD WATCH FROM LATE
TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
RAIN WILL BE ONGOING ACROSS MUCH OF THE NEW HAMPSHIRE AND MAINE
SATURDAY MORNING AS A POWERFUL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM CONTINUES TO
TRACK THROUGH THE GULF OF MAINE. THE STORM SYSTEM WILL BE VERTICALLY
STACKED BY THIS POINT AND FILLING. A DRY SLOT WILL TRY AND WORK ITS
WAY IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON AS THE SURFACE
CYCLONE CONTINUES TO PUSH EAST NORTHEAST. BY EARLY AFTERNOON...
PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND SOUTHWEST MAINE WILL SEE THE
PRECIPITATION END AND THE SUN WILL TRY TO MAKE AN APPEARANCE. THE
NORTHWEST FLOW WILL KEEP SHOWER ACTIVITY OVER THE MOUNTAINS THROUGH
SUNDAY...WITH A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW OVER THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS.
NORTHWEST WINDS WILL STILL BE GUSTY THANKS TO A TIGHT PRESSURE
GRADIENT...ESPECIALLY OVER THE MIDCOAST OF MAINE. RAINFALL AMOUNTS
OVER THE WEEKEND WILL BE LIGHT (LESS THAN A QUARTER OF AN INCH)
COMPARED TO TOTALS EXPECTED TOMORROW.

AS THE LARGE UPPER LOW DEPARTS...THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL BECOME
MORE ZONAL BUT WILL STILL RETAIN SOME DEGREE OF CYCLONIC FLOW. ON
TUESDAY SURFACE LOW PRESSURE WILL TRAVEL ALONG A WEAK WEST TO EAST
ORIENTED FRONT TO OUR SOUTH. THIS WILL BRING CLOUDS AND LOW CHANCES
OF RAIN TO COASTAL AREAS...BUT MOST OF THE RAIN SHOULD STAY SOUTH OF
NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. BY WEDNESDAY...A STRONG SHORT WAVE WILL DIG
INTO SOUTHERN CANADA...PROMPTING A SURFACE LOW TO DEEPEN OVER THE
GREAT LAKES. THIS SYSTEM WILL PUSH A COLD FRONT THROUGH NEW ENGLAND
LATE WEDNESDAY...WITH THE HEAVIER PRECIPITATION PROJECTED TO FALL
OVER NORTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND MAINE. TEMPERATURES THIS WEEK WILL
BE SLIGHTLY BELOW OR NEAR NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
SHORT TERM...MVFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP THIS EVENING...
THEN DETERIORATE TO IFR IN RAIN...HEAVY AT TIMES...TONIGHT AND
