AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
910 AM EDT WED APR 13 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
COASTAL LOW PRESSURE WILL BRING HEAVY RAIN...GUSTY WINDS AND CHILLY
WEATHER TO THE REGION TODAY.  CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD
INTO THE REGION THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...BRINGING DRY AND SEASONABLE
WEATHER. ANOTHER STORM IS ON THE HORIZON BEGINNING LATE SATURDAY AND
SATURDAY NIGHT WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE RAIN AND GUSTY WINDS.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
***HEAVY RAIN THIS MORNING ESPECIALLY IN VICINITY OF THE BOSTON TO
PROVIDENCE CORRIDOR***

WV LOOP SHOWS TROPICAL CONNECTION EXTENDING NWD FROM THE BAHAMAS
INTO SNE WITH PWATS APPROACHING 1.5" S OF THE COAST. STRONG LOW
LEVEL CONVERGENCE AND ELEVATED INSTABILITY ASSOCD WITH THE LOW
LEVEL JET WITHIN THIS MOISTURE PLUME IS RESULTING IN AREAS OF
HEAVY RAIN AND EMBEDDED TSTMS LIFTING NWD ACROSS THE COASTAL
PLAIN. THE HEAVIEST RAIN AND TSTMS WILL SHIFT TO THE EAST 15-18Z
AS THE LLJ AND DEEP LAYER THETA-E RIDGE MOVE EAST...WITH MID
LEVEL DRY SLOT MOVING INTO SNE THIS AFTERNON. THIS WILL RESULT
RAIN TAPERING TO JUST SCT SHOWERS THIS AFTERNOON. DEEPER MOISTURE
ASSOCD WITH THE MID LEVEL LOW WILL MOVE BACK INTO W ZONES LATER
TODAY WHERE ANOTHER PERIOD OF SHOWERS LIKELY.

LLJ HAS PRODUCED SOME GUSTY WINDS IN THE COASTAL PLAIN WITH GUSTS
35-40 KT. STRONGEST WINDS THROUGH MIDDAY WILL BE CONFINED TO SE
COASTAL MA AND CAPE/ISLANDS THEN DIMINISH THIS AFTERNOON AS THE
LLJ MOVES TO THE EAST.

HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL PRETTY MUCH HOLD IN THE 40S WITH THE
CLOUDS/RAIN AND ONSHORE FLOW. PORTIONS OF THE SOUTH
COAST/CAPE/ISLANDS WILL LIKELY BE THE ONLY SPOTS THAT CRACK 50
AS THE WINDS GO SOUTH FOR A TIME.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM THURSDAY/...
TONIGHT...
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD WIND DOWN DURING
THE EVENING HOURS AS THE UPPER LEVEL LOW LIFTS INTO NORTHERN NEW
ENGLAND.  HOWEVER...LOW CLOUDS/FOG PATCHES AND EVEN A SPOT SHOWER OR
TWO WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE AFTER MIDNIGHT.  LOW TEMPERATURES WILL
MAINLY BE IN THE UPPER 30S TO LOWER 40S.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
MEDIUM RANGE MODELS SHOWING FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH THIS
WEEKEND...THOUGH SOME DIFFERENCES STILL SEEN ON TIMING AND TRACK OF
NEXT LOW PRESSURE APPROACHING THIS WEEKEND. STARTING ON MONDAY...
WIDE VARIANCE ON TRACK AND TIMING OF SENSIBLE WEATHER SYSTEMS ACROSS
THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN U.S...SO LOW CONFIDENCE CONTINUES FOR THE
LATTER PORTION OF THIS FORECAST...MOST NOTABLY ON THE GFS. APPEARS
THAT THE ECMWF AND ITS ENSEMBLE MEAN SEEMED TO SHOW BETTER
CONTINUITY AND RUN TO RUN CONSISTENCY OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS.

THURSDAY...LOW PRES EXITS TO THE MARITIMES DURING THE MORNING. MAY
SEE LEFTOVER CLOUDS...BUT EXPECT THESE TO EXIT THE REGION BY MID DAY
OR EARLY AFTERNOON. WITH MORE SUN...EXPECT TEMPS TO RISE TO THE
UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S FOR MOST AREAS. WILL REMAIN COOLER ON OUTER
CAPE ANN AS WELL AS CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS EVEN ON A N WIND.
STRONG HIGH PRES BUILDS OUT OF HUDSON BAY TOWARD NEW ENGLAND BY
THURSDAY NIGHT...SO EXPECT MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND LIGHT/VARIABLE
WINDS. THIS WILL ALLOW TEMPS TO FALL BACK TO THE 30S ACROSS MOST
AREAS...COOLEST IN THE COLDER VALLEYS...BUT WILL REMAIN AROUND 40
ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST.

FRIDAY...AS HIGH PRES BUILDS OFF THE MAINE COAST INTO THE GULF OF
MAINE...THIS WILL ALLOW WINDS TO VEER TO THE NE-E THROUGH THE DAY
AND PICK UP SOMEWHAT...MAINLY ALONG THE E COAST. AS THE HIGH BUILDS
ACROSS NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND...NOTING A DEFINITE COOLING TREND AT THE
MID LEVELS THROUGH AT LEAST MIDDAY. THIS...ALONG WITH THE ONSHORE
WIND OFF THE VERY CHILLY OCEAN /TEMPS ONLY IN THE LOWER-MID 40S/...
WILL MEAN RATHER COOL TEMPS FOR THE REGION. ONLY EXPECTING HIGHS IN
THE MID-UPPER 40S ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST...RANGING TO THE MID 50S
ACROSS THE CT VALLEY.

WILL START TO SEE CLOUDS INCREASE FROM SW-NE DURING FRIDAY
NIGHT...MAINLY AFTER MIDNIGHT...AS NEXT LOW AND ASSOCIATED FRONT
START TO PUSH EASTWARD. E-SE WINDS WILL ALSO START TO PICK UP IN
RESPONSE TO THE APPROACHING FRONT AGAINST THE STRONG HIGH TO THE E.

SATURDAY...MODELS HAVE SLOWED THE PROGRESS OF THE LOW AND FRONT TO
THE W OF THE REGION AS THE HIGH HOLDS IN THROUGH A GOOD PORTION OF
THE DAY. WILL STILL SEE CLOUDS INCREASE...AND DO EXPECT SHARP
LEADING EDGE OF THE PRECIP TO MOVE INTO THE CT VALLEY BY AROUND
MIDDAY. WENT ALONG WITH A BLEND OF THE GFS AND ECWMF WITH THIS
TIMING...AS THE GGEM LOOKED TOO FAST CONSIDERING THE STRENGTH OF THE
HIGH OFFSHORE. CURRENT THINKING MAY STILL BE TOO FAST. ALL WILL
DEPEND UPON POSITION AND STRENGTH OF THE HIGH TO THE E. E-SE FLOW
WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE...WITH GUSTS UP TO 25-30 KT ESPECIALLY
ALONG THE E COAST. WILL KEEP TEMPS ONLY IN THE MID 40S TO NEAR 50
THROUGH THE DAY.

SATURDAY NIGHT-SUNDAY...SLUG OF LOCALLY HEAVY PRECIP WILL MOVE
ACROSS THE REGION DURING THIS TIMEFRAME. WITH WINDS VEERING TO
SE-S...EXPECT PRECIP TO BE ALL RAIN. VERY STRONG H925 JET MOVING
ACROSS CENTRAL AND EASTERN AREAS LATE SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY
MORNING. DO HAVE LOW POTENTIAL OF WINDS CLOSE TO ADVISORY LEVEL FOR
A TIME. THIS WILL ALSO ALLOW TEMPS TO REMAIN STEADY OR EVEN RISE
THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. MAY SEE ANOTHER 1-1.5 INCHES OF QPF WITH
THIS SYSTEM AS WELL...BUT AXIS OF HEAVY RAIN IS STILL UP IN THE
AIR.  ALSO NOTE SOME INSTABILITY WITH TOTAL TOTALS INTO THE LOWER
50S LATE SAT NIGHT AND SUN MORNING...SO MIGHT SEE A FEW TSTMS AS
WELL. NOT MENTIONED FOR NOW...BUT SOMETHING TO WATCH.

EXPECT COLD FRONT TO PUSH THROUGH DURING SUNDAY...SO WINDS SHOULD
SHIFT TO W AND DIMINISH. WITH SOME SUN POSSIBLY BREAKING
THROUGH...SHOULD SEE TEMPS RISE TO THE 50S.

SUNDAY NIGHT-TUESDAY...STILL SOME QUESTIONS AS TO THE EXIT OF THE
PRECIP OUT OF EASTERN MA SUNDAY NIGHT...BUT DO EXPECT THIS TO CLEAR
EARLY. BEYOND THAT...MODELS ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE WITH SYSTEMS
MOVING ACROSS THE CONUS. HPC MEDIUM RANGE DEPICTS A COLD FRONT
PASSING THROUGH MON NIGHT OR TUE...SO WENT WITH SLIGHT CHANCE POPS
FOR MOST AREAS THOUGH MENTIONED LOW CHANCE POPS FOR S NH WITH THIS
SYSTEM. TIMING IS HIGHLY SUSPECT.

&&

.AVIATION /13Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...
  LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT
  MEDIUM...30 PERCENT TO 60 PERCENT
  HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT

TODAY...MEDIUM TO HIGH CONFIDENCE. WIDESPREAD MVFR CONDITIONS WITH
LOCAL IFR EXPECTED INTO THIS AFTERNOON. SCT TO NUMEROUS TSTMS OVER
THE CAPE/ISLANDS WILL MOVE TO THE EAST BY MIDDAY AS RAIN TAPERS TO
SCT SHOWERS. E WIND GUSTS 35-40 KT CAPE/ISLANDS WILL DIMINISH BY
THIS AFTERNOON.

TONIGHT...MEDIUM TO HIGH CONFIDENCE.  SHOWERS/ISO THUNDER SHOULD
WIND DOWN THIS EVENING BUT IFR CONDITIONS IN LOW CLOUDS AND FOG
PATCHES SHOULD PERSIST MOST OF THE NIGHT.

KBOS TERMINAL...MEDIUM CONFIDENCE.  EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD
DETERIORATE TO MVFR LEVELS BETWEEN 14Z-15Z...THEN LOW END IFR
CIGS/VSBYS IN AREAS OF RAIN. LOW CHANCE OF ISOLD TSTM THROUGH 18Z OR
SO. THE PRECIPITATION SHOULD BECOME MORE SHOWERY FROM MID TO LATE
AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING HOURS AND THEN FINALLY COME TO AN END BY
LATE THIS EVENING.  HOWEVER...IFR CONDITIONS IN LOW CLOUDS/FOG
PATCHES WILL LIKELY PERSIST INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. SHOULD SEE
IMPROVEMENT AFTER 10Z THU.

OUTLOOK...THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...

THURSDAY...MAY SEE LEFTOVER MVFR CIGS ACROSS EASTERN AREAS EARLY...
OTHERWISE HIGH CONFIDENCE FOR VFR CONDITIONS.

FRIDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE FOR VFR. MAY START TO SEE MID-HIGH CLOUDS
PUSH IN FRIDAY NIGHT FROM SW-NE.

SATURDAY...MEDIUM CONFIDENCE. EXPECT VFR CIGS LOWERING TO MVFR. VFR
VSBYS WILL LOWER TO MVFR DURING THE AFTERNOON AS RAIN MOVES IN.
EXPECT MAINLY MVFR-IFR CIGS/VSBYS SATURDAY NIGHT...WITH LOCAL LIFR
IN POCKETS OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN. MAY ALSO SEE SURFACE WIND
GUSTS UP TO 30 KT AND LLWS DEVELOPING AS 55-60 KT LOW LEVEL SE-S JET
MOVES ACROSS RI/E MA MOVES ACROSS DURING SATURDAY NIGHT.

SUNDAY...MEDIUM CONFIDENCE. MVFR-IFR CIGS/VSBYS IN AREAS OF RAIN
THROUGH MIDDAY SUNDAY...IMPROVING FROM W-E DURING THE AFTERNOON. LOW
CONFIDENCE ON TIMING. LLWS AND S WIND GUSTS TO 25-30 KT POSSIBLE
SUNDAY MORNING ALONG E COASTAL MA.

&&

.MARINE...
TODAY...COASTAL LOW PRESSURE WORKING NORTHEAST AND HIGH PRESSURE
OVER THE CANADIAN MARITIMES WAS CAUSING THE PRESSURE GRADIENT TO
INCREASE EARLY THIS MORNING. WE UPGRADED TO A SHORT DURATION GALE
WARNING FOR THE NEARSHORE WATERS UNTIL AROUND MIDDAY...THEN WINDS
WILL DIMINISH. SEAS WILL BUILD TO BETWEEN 7 AND 10 FEET ACROSS
THE OUTER-WATERS TODAY. THE WINDS SHOULD BEGIN TO SLACKEN THIS
AFTERNOON.

FINALLY...SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS MAY AFFECT THE WATERS AT TIMES.
ESPECIALLY THIS MORNING ACROSS THE SOUTHERN AND EASTERN WATERS.

TONIGHT...WINDS WILL HAVE DROPPED BELOW SCA THRESHOLDS BEHIND THE
DEPARTING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM.  IN ADDITION...SEAS WILL COME DOWN
BUT WILL STILL BE ABOVE SCA THRESHOLDS FOR MOST OF THE NIGHT ACROSS
THE OUTER WATERS AND A FEW OF THE SOUNDS.  THE OTHER CONCERN WILL BE
FOR AREAS OF FOG...SOME OF WHICH MAY BE LOCALLY DENSE.

OUTLOOK...THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...

THURSDAY...EXPECT NW WINDS BELOW SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA...VEERING TO
NE THU NIGHT. GUSTS MAY REACH SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA AFTER 06Z THU ON
THE EASTERN OUTER WATERS. SEAS WILL REMAIN AT OR ABOVE 5 FT ON THE
OUTER WATERS.

FRIDAY...NE-E WINDS MAY GUST UP TO 25 KT MAINLY ON THE EASTERN OUTER
WATERS THROUGH MIDDAY...THEN WILL DIMINISH. SEAS WILL REMAIN AT OR
ABOVE 5 FT THROUGH THE DAY ON THE OPEN WATERS...THEN SHOULD SUBSIDE
FRI NIGHT. MAY REMAIN NEAR 5 FT WELL SE OF NANTUCKET THROUGH THE
NIGHT.

OF GALE FORCE SE GUSTS SAT NIGHT ACROSS THE EASTERN WATERS AND S AND
E OF NANTUCKET. SEAS BUILDING TO OVER 10 FT ACROSS THE OPEN WATERS.

SUNDAY...LOW TO MEDIUM PROBABILITY OF GALE FORCE S GUSTS SUNDAY
MORNING...THEN WILL SHIFT TO W AND DIMINISH BUT REMAIN NEAR OR ABOVE
SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA. SEAS REMAIN AT OR ABOVE 5 FT.
