AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
818 PM EST SUN MAR 6 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE UP THE COAST...CROSSING SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND LATE TONIGHT...THEN MOVING TO THE CANADIAN MARITIMES BY
MONDAY EVENING. HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDS OVER OUR REGION FOR
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE MOVING OUT OF THE
PLAINS WILL LIKELY BRING RAIN BACK TO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND LATE
THIS WEEK...AND POSSIBLY INTO NEXT WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
LIGHT TO MODERATE RAIN CONTINUES ACROSS CENTRAL AND WESTERN
MASSACHUSETTS...SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND NORTHERN CONNECTICUT
THIS EVENING.

A LOW PRESSURE NEAR CHESAPEAKE BAY ALONG A COLD FRONT STRETCHING
FROM WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA UP THE EAST COAST THROUGH EASTERN NEW
YORK AND ACROSS NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. THIS IS PROVIDING
CONVERGENCE TO SUPPORT RAIN ACROSS NEW YORK AND MUCH OF NEW
ENGLAND THIS EVENING. THIS IS MORE IN LINE WITH THE CONSENSUS OF
THE MODELS EXCLUDING THE 12Z GFS.

THE 18Z GFS AND NAM ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT BRINGING THIS LOW
PRESSURE TO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND BY DAYBREAK MONDAY.

A 45-50 KNOT SOUTHERLY LOW-LEVEL JET OVER THE REGION WILL INCREASE
THROUGH THE NIGHT...WITH 70 KNOT SOUTHERLY WINDS EXPECTED AT 925MB
AND 850MB OVERNIGHT. WHILE A LOW LEVEL INVERSION SHOULD KEEP THE
STRONGEST OF THESE WINDS FROM MIXING TO THE SURFACE...ANY HEAVIER
DOWNPOURS MAY DRAW DOWN STRONG WIND GUSTS IN THE 45-55 MPH RANGE.
BELIEVE THIS WILL BE FAIRLY ISOLATED AND NOT A WIDESPREAD EVENT...
THEREFORE WE WILL NOT ISSUE A WIND ADVISORY JUST YET.

THIS STRONG JET WILL AID IN INCREASING ISENTROPIC LIFT OVER NEW
ENGLAND THROUGH TONIGHT. HAVE CATEGORICAL POPS THROUGH MUCH OF THE
NIGHT WITH SOME TAPERING TO CHANCE ACROSS THE CT VALLEY NEAR 12Z.
MOST OF THE PRECIPITATION WILL BE RAIN. HOWEVER...AS THE FRONT
STARTS EDGING INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND...NW PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN
NEW ENGLAND MAY SEE SOME WINTRY PRECIP TOWARDS 12Z. WHILE THIS
WILL BE OCCURRING AS THE PRECIPITATION IS TAPERING OFF AND
ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED TO BE LIGHT...WE HAVE GONE AHEAD AND
ISSUED A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY WITH THIS FORECAST PACKAGE. THIS
IS FOR THE EAST SLOPES OF THE BERKS...FRANKLIN COUNTY...AND
CHESHIRE COUNTY IN NH.

FOR QPF...USE THE LATEST NERFC QPF FORECAST WHICH BRINGS
WIDESPREAD 1 TO 3 INCHES OF RAIN ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND WITH
THE HEAVIEST AMOUNTS ACROSS THE CT VALLEY AND THE LIGHTEST AMOUNTS
ON THE CAPE AND ISLANDS. PLEASE REFER TO THE HYDROLOGY SECTION
BELOW FOR MORE INFORMATION ON POTENTIAL FLOODING HAZARDS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM MONDAY/...
LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE NORTHEASTWARD THROUGH THE GULF OF MAINE
MONDAY. WITH THE COLD FRONT MOVING OFFSHORE BY MID-MORNING...HIGH
TEMPERATURES WILL LIKELY BE REACHED EARLY AND COOL THROUGH THE
DAY. IN OTHER WORDS...WHILE HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE FORECAST TO BE
IN THE 40S...THAT IS LIKELY TO OCCUR BEFORE 9AM WITH TEMPERATURES
FALLING THROUGH THE 30S DURING THE DAY.

AS MENTIONED ABOVE...THERE MAY BE A BRIEF PERIOD OF MIXED WINTRY
PRECIP IN THE NORTHWESTERN ZONES EARLY MONDAY BUT THIS WILL OCCUR
AS PRECIPITATION IS TAPERING OFF. A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY HAS
BEEN ISSUED FOR THIS POSSIBILITY.

OTHERWISE...A GENERAL CLEARING TREND EXPECTED WITH CLOUDS MOVING
OUT OF THE REGION BY LATE AFTERNOON.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
06/12Z MODELS ARE IN DECENT AGREEMENT AT THE SURFACE THROUGH
THURSDAY NIGHT. USED THE CONSENSUS SOLUTION TO PROVIDE TIMING OF
FEATURES THROUGH THEN. IN THE MID LEVELS THOUGH...THE 12Z ECMWF
DEVELOPS A SLOWER AND SIGNIFICANTLY DEEPER LONGWAVE TROUGH. ECMWF
GARNERS SUPPORT FROM THE GGEM...WHICH HAS AN EVEN SLOWER AND
DEEPER SOLUTION. THIS WILL HAVE MAJOR IMPLICATIONS FOR THE
DURATION AND TIMING OF PRECIPITATION LATE THIS WEEK INTO NEXT
WEEKEND. LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST WITH SOME OF THE DETAILS SUCH AS
PRECIPITATION TYPE...SO STAYED CLOSER TO THE HPC GUIDANCE WHICH
FAVORED THE 06/06Z GFS.

MONDAY NIGHT...A LOW PRESSURE AND ITS COLD FRONT WILL MOVE FARTHER
OFFSHORE WITH THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH SWINGING ACROSS THE AREA.
COLDER AND DRIER AIR WILL INFILTRATE THE REGION. USED A BLEND OF
MET/MAV MOS TEMPERATURE GUIDANCE TO DERIVE OVERNIGHT LOWS.

TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE AND A MID-LEVEL
RIDGE AXIS WILL CREST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA WITH SEASONABLY
COLD AND DRY CONDITIONS EXPECTED.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY...ANOTHER COLD FRONT APPROACHES
FROM THE GREAT LAKES....BUT WILL STRUGGLE TO MAKE MUCH EASTWARD
PROGRESS WITH A STRONG HIGH PRESSURE OVER EASTERN CANADA. WARM...
MOIST AIR OVERRIDING THE LEFTOVER COLD AND DRY AIR AT THE SURFACE
WILL ALLOW FOR SOME MIXED PRECIPITATION TO START THE EVENT. WITH
LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE DETAILS...LIMITED PRECIPITATION TYPES TO
JUST RAIN OR SNOW FOR NOW.

STRONG SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL TRANSPORT MILDER AIR ACROSS SOUTHERN
NEW ENGLAND...ALLOWING FOR AN EVENTUAL CHANGEOVER TO ALL RAIN
THURSDAY. THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD OF COASTAL
WIND AND RAIN. DID NOT WANT TO MAKE MAJOR CHANGES...SO ONLY
TRENDED THE PREVIOUS FORECAST FOR NOW.

SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST DUE TO TIMING ISSUES
RELATED TO EVOLUTION OF MID-LEVEL FLOW. EXTENDED A CHANCE OF
PRECIPITATION INTO SATURDAY WITH BOTH GFS AND ECMWF SHOWING A LOW
PRESSURE IN THE VICINITY.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

TO 40 KT RANGE TO THE SURFACE AT TIMES. SEAS INCREASE OVERNIGHT
AS LOW PRESSURE APPROACHES SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.

MONDAY...WINDS SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST AS THE LOW PRESSURE MOVES
NORTHEASTWARD INTO THE GULF OF MAINE. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED. WHILE SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN ABOVE 5
FEET...THEY WILL BE DIMINISHING SLOWLY THROUGHOUT THE DAY.

OUTLOOK...MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY...
WINDS AND SEAS GRADUALLY DIMINISH ACROSS THE NEARSHORE WATERS
MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS LIKELY
TO LINGER ACROSS THE OUTER COASTAL WATERS INTO FRIDAY...MAINLY DUE
TO ROUGH SEAS.
