AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1037 AM EDT THU SEP 8 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
SHOWERY WEATHER WILL CONTINUE INTO TONIGHT AS A FRONTAL BOUNDARY
LINGERS SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD SOUTHEAST
FROM CANADA FRIDAY USHERING DRIER WEATHER. MEANWHILE KATIA WILL
TRACK SOUTHEAST OF NEW ENGLAND CONTINUING HIGH SURF AND SWELLS FOR
THE SHORELINES INTO FRIDAY. REMNANT LOW PRESSURE FROM ONCE TROPICAL
STORM WILL APPROACH SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND THIS WEEKEND. THIS MAY YIELD
A FEW SHOWERS FOR THE AREA HOWEVER A WASHOUT IS NOT EXPECTED. THE
WEATHER THEME FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK FAVORS A WARMING TREND AHEAD OF
AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT THAT MAY YIELD SCATTERED SHOWERS TUE
AND/OR WED.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...

1030 AM UPDATE...
SEVERAL UPDATES TO ONGOING FORECAST AS PRECIP AMOUNTS HAVE COME IN
HIGHER THAN FORECASTED. WESTERN MASS HAS RECEIVED THE HEAVIER
AMOUNT OF PRECIP WITH 2+INCHES...WHILE A HEAVIER BAND OF PRECIP
HAS TREKKED ACROSS RI AND INTO EASTERN MASS WITH 2+ INCHES REPORTED
AS WELL. THIS BAND WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EASTWARD AND DROP HIGH
AMOUNTS OF PRECIP ACROSS EASTERN MASS. INCREASED QPF THROUGH 00Z
WITH THE HEAVIEST AMOUNTS WHERE STRONGEST STORMS ARE MOVING
THROUGH. SEVERAL FLOOD PRODUCTS ARE IN PLACE.

LATEST RADAR TRENDS SHOW THAT PRECIP IS ENDING FROM WEST TO EAST
HAVE HAVE UPDATED THE FORECAST TO SHOW. DRIER AIR BEGINS TO MOVE
INTO THE MID-LEVELS AROUND 18Z AS INDICATED IN THE NAM AND RUC.
THIS WILL HELP TREND DOWN PRECIP AS WELL.

HAVE TRENDED TEMPS DOWN AS INDICATED BY LATEST OBS. OTHERWISE
FORECAST IS MAINLY ON TRACK MINUS THE TWEAKS.

7 AM UPDATE...
NOT MUCH CHANGE FROM PREVIOUS FORECAST AS WE CONTINUE TO EXPECT
PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN AND EMBEDDED TSTMS THROUGH THE MORNING
BEFORE BECOMING MORE SHOWERY TOWARD MIDDAY. SATELLITE DERIVED
PRODUCTS CONTINUE TO INDICATE TROPICAL CONNECTION STREAMING UP THE
EASTERN SEABOARD WITH PWATS AOA 2 INCHES...WHICH IS ABOUT 200% OF
NORMAL! THIS ABUNDANT TROPICAL MOISTURE IS WORKING IN CONCERT WITH
STRONG LOW LEVEL FRONTOGENTICAL FORCING ASSOCIATED WITH A WARM
FRONT SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND. GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT THAT THIS FRONTAL
BOUNDARY WEAKENS WITH TIME TODAY ALONG WITH UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK
EXITING NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND INTO THE MARITIMES. THUS HEAVY RAIN
WILL BECOME MORE SHOWERY TOWARD MIDDAY.

AREAL FLOOD ADVISORIES HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR MUCH OF CT/WEST-
CENTRAL MA INTO SOUTHWEST NH AS WE EXPECTED MINOR FLOODING OF
SMALL RIVERS AND STREAM ALONG WITH POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING. IF THE
HEAVY RAIN PERSIST LONGER THAN EXPECTED THESE ADVISORIES WILL HAVE
TO BE UPGRADED TO WARNINGS. SO STAY TUNED TO LATER FORECASTS.

COOL TEMPS WILL CONTINUE GIVEN THE NE FLOW...OVERCAST CONDITIONS
AND RAIN.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
THURSDAY NIGHT...

AS KATIA SLIDES SE OF NEW ENGLAND AND BEGINS ITS NE TRACK OUT TO
SEA...RIDGE OF HIGH PRES WILL BE IN CONTROL...AND MID-LVL DRY AIR
CONTINUES TO WRAP CYCLONICALLY ALONG THE N PERIPHERY OF KATIA
ITSELF. ISENTROPIC FLOW BACKS OUT OF THE N...EXHIBITING A
DOWNWELLING TREND IN RESPONSE TO KATIA. LIGHT NLY SFC FLOW CONTINUES
WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER AND DRIER AIR SETTLING INTO THE RGN. CLOUDS
STILL IN CONTROL...PERHAPS A FEW BREAKS ALONG THE S SHORELINE WITH
THE INTRUSION OF DRIER AIR. MINS IN THE UPR 50S TO LOW 60S N TO S.

FRIDAY...

DRIER AIR AND RIDGE OF HIGH PRES IN PLACE. KATIA SLIDES NEWD PAST
NEW ENGLAND AND MAY SEE GUSTS UP TO 30 MPH OVER NANTUCKET WITH THE
POTENTIAL OF SOME OUTER BAND INTERACTION WITH SHOWERY WX. THE
REMAINDER OF THE RGN MAY GRADUALLY CLEAR OUT MIDDAY INTO AFTN. YET
THIS IS SHORT LIVED AS THE ATLANTIC RIDGE BUILDS WWD WITH KATIA/S
DEPARTURE...ENHANCING THE MID-UPR LVL CYCLONIC FLOW AROUND THE
REMNANTS OF LEE OVER THE LWR OH RVR VLY RGN. THE COLLOCATION OF THE
LEFT EXIT RGN OF THE MID-UPR LVL JET STREAK WILL LEND FOR SHOWERS
AND POTENTIAL THUNDERSTORMS TOWARDS THE END OF THE PD FOR THE WRN
FCST RGN. CONFIDENCE IS LOW AT THIS TIME...SOME DEPENDENCY LIES ON
MOISTURE AVAILABILITY.  WITH POTENTIAL CLEARING CONDITIONS AND H925
TEMPS OF +18-20C...COULD SEE UPR 70S TO LOW 80S FOR MAX TEMPS.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MODEL PREFERENCES AND SYNOPTIC OVERVIEW...
ABOVE AVERAGE FORECAST CONFIDENCE ON THE LARGE SCALE FLOW THIS
PERIOD AS BOTH THE 12Z/07 GEFS AND ECENS ARE TIGHTLY CLUSTERED.
HOWEVER CONFIDENCE IS BELOW AVERAGE ON THE SMALLER SCALE DETAILS.
BOTH MODELS AGREE THAT REMNANT MID LEVEL LOW FROM ONCE TS LEE WILL
REMAIN DETACHED FROM THE WESTERLIES THIS WEEKEND AND AS A RESULT
WILL MOVE SLOWLY FROM THE OH VLY TO NEW ENGLAND. WITH TIME THIS
CLOSED CIRCULATION WILL TRANSITION TO AN OPEN WAVE AND EJECT SHORT
WAVE IMPULSES AND MID LEVEL MOISTURE TOWARD SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.
HENCE PLAYING HAVOC WITH OUR WEEKEND FORECAST. THEN BY EARLY NEXT
WEEK GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT ON POLAR VORTEX SLIDING SOUTHWARD INTO
HUDSON BAY WHICH SERVES TO KICK BROAD NE MID LEVEL TROF FINALLY OFF
THE COAST. AHEAD OF THIS DEVELOPING HUDSON BAY TO GREAT LAKES MEAN
TROF WARM AIR ADVECTION PATTERN WILL SET UP OVER THE NORTHEAST
YIELDING A WARMING TREND HERE IN SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND EARLY NEXT
WEEK.

DAILY DETAILS...

FRI NIGHT AND SAT...
BACKDOOR COLD FRONT SLIDES SOUTH FROM NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND FRI NIGHT
AND THEN ACROSS THE AREA SAT. MID LEVEL CONFLUENT FLOW THEN SETS UP
OVER THE AREA SAT PROVIDING LARGE SCALE MID LEVEL SUBSIDENCE AND
SURFACE HIGH PRES OVER THE REGION YIELDING DRY AND COOLER WEATHER.
THE 00Z GFS APPEARS TO BE AN OUTLIER WITH CONFLUENT ZONE FARTHER
NORTH ALLOWING LEFTOVER MOISTURE FROM REMNANT TS LEE OVER PA TO
STREAM EASTWARD INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.  GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF
THE NORTHERN STREAM JET PREFER THE SUPPRESSED SOLUTIONS FROM THE 00Z
NAM/GEFS AND ECMWF. THEREFORE HAVE UNDERCUT GFS MOS POPS BY
INCORPORATING THE DRIER METNAM POPS THIS PERIOD.

NE SURFACE FLOW AND SHALLOW COOL AIRMASS BEHIND BACKDOOR COLD FRONT
WILL YIELD LARGE TEMP DIFFERENCES SAT BETWEEN EASTERN MA /60S/ AND
THE CT RVR VLY /70S/.

SAT NIGHT THROUGH SUN NIGHT...
MID LEVEL CONFLUENT ZONE LIFTS NORTH PROMOTING FRONT TO OUR SOUTH TO
DRIFT NORTHWARD. UPSTREAM MID LEVEL LOW OVER THE OH VLY WILL
EJECT JET IMPULSES TOWARD THE REGION DURING THIS TIME FRAME. THE
COMBINATION OF THESE FEATURES WILL INCREASE THE RISK FOR SCATTERED
SHOWERS OVER SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. ALTHOUGH FORCING FOR ASCENT AND
INSTABILITY ARE MARGINAL SO AREAL COVERAGE OF SHOWERS WILL LIKELY BE
ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED. THUS TRIMMED GFS MOS POPS WITH DRIER
HPC GUIDANCE. OVERALL THE BULK OF THE WEEKEND APPEARS DRY WITH JUST
A LOW PROB OF DODGING A FEW SHOWERS...HIGHEST PROBS ACRS WRN MA INTO
CT AND COASTAL RI AND SOUTHEAST MA.

MON/TUE/WED...
REMNANT MID LEVEL LOW FROM ONCE TS LEE WILL FINALLY MOVE OFFSHORE MON
SUPPORTING A TREND TOWARD DRY WEATHER. NEW MEAN MID LEVEL TROF
DEVELOPS FROM HUDSON BAY SOUTHWARD TO THE GREAT LAKES TUE/WED. THIS
WILL LIKELY PROVIDE A WARMING TREND INTO THE NORTHEAST BEFORE A COLD
FRONTAL PASSAGE SOMETIME MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. THE RISK OF SHOWERS
WILL ALSO INCREASE WITH THIS FEATURE TUE AND WED. BEHIND THE FRONT
UNSEASONABLY COOL AIR MAY OVERSPREAD THE REGION.

AND SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES HAVE BEEN EXTENDED ACCORDINGLY.

OUTLOOK...FRI NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...

FRI NIGHT AND SAT...
CHOPPY/ROUGH SEAS ACROSS THE OCEAN WATERS WITH LEFTOVER SE SWELLS
FROM KATIA COMBINING WITH NE WIND WAVES BEHIND BACKDOOR COLD FRONT.
LIGHT NW WINDS FRI NIGHT WILL BECOME NE 15-20 KT SAT. DRY WEATHER
SHOULD PREVAIL WITH A LOW RISK OF SHOWERS OVER THE SOUTHERN COASTAL

.HYDROLOGY...
INCREASINGLY LITTLE ROOM TO SOAK NEW RAIN INTO THE GROUND IN MANY
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND AREAS AND THUS SEEING RELATIVELY RAPID
RUNOFF. BASED ON CURRENT AND PROJECTED RAINFALL IN ADDITION TO
ACTUAL OBSERVED SMALL STREAM RISES...FLOOD WARNINGS HAVE BEEN
ISSUED FOR WEST AND CENTRAL MA AS WELL AS HARTFORD COUNTY IN
NORTHERN CT. SURROUNDING THIS AREA...ESPECIALLY OVER EASTERN MA
AND RI...EXPECT STREET FLOODING IN URBAN POOR DRAINAGE AREAS. IN
THE BOSTON METRO AREA...WE ARE A LITTLE CONCERNED THAT THE ABERJONA
RIVER WILL COME CLOSE TO FLOOD STAGE DUE TO ANOTHER HOUR OR SO
TROPICAL DOWNPOURS IN THAT AREA AND NOT A LOT OF ROOM TO WORK
WITH.

SEEING MANY RISES...SOME SHARP...WITH MAIN STEM RIVERS. FLOOD
WARNINGS CONTINUE FOR THE CT RIVER FROM NORTHAMPTON TO MIDDLETOWN
WITH MIDDLETOWN PROJECTED TO REACH MODERATE FLOODING. A WARNING
HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE FARMINGTON RIVER TRIBUTARY FOR UNIONVILLE
AND SIMSBURY. WE ARE HOLDING ON TARRIFILLE AT THIS TIME. THE CT
RIVER AT MONTAGUE IS FLUCTUATING JUST BELOW FLOOD STAGE WITH THE
MAIN ISSUE HOW MUCH LOCAL RUNOFF IS CONTRIBUTING. SO
FAR...RAINFALL UPSTREAM NORTH OF THE MA BORDER HAS NOT BEEN SO
MUCH AN ISSUE. THE NORTH NASHUA RIVER AT FITCHBURG WILL PROBABLY
COME CLOSE TO FLOOD STAGE AND WE MAY YET HAVE TO ISSUE A WARNING
ON THAT RELATIVELY FLASHY RIVER. OTHER RIVERS OF CONCERN INCLUDE
THE SUDBURY AT SAXONVILLE AND THE ASSABET AT MAYNARD WHICH ARE
RISING WELL ABOVE PREVIOUS FORECASTS. THE BOTTOMLINE IS THAT THE
RVD LATER THIS MORNING SHOULD REFLECT SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER STAGES
THAN PREVIOUS FORECAST. WE WILL PROCESS THE NEW GUIDANCE AS
QUICKLY AS WE CAN.
