AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
711 AM EST SUN FEB 6 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
DRY WEATHER WITH ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES IS ON TAP FOR THE REGION
TODAY.  TWO LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS WILL LIKELY BRING A MIXTURE OF
RAIN/SNOW TO THE REGION MONDAY NIGHT/TUESDAY MORNING.  ANOTHER LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM ON THURSDAY MAY GRAZE PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND WITH A LOW PROBABILITY OF A MORE SIGNIFICANT IMPACT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
WINDS HAVE BEGUN TO SUBSIDE ACROSS THE REGION AND WILL CONTINUE
TO DO SO AS STRONG LOW PRES MOVES OUT OF THE BAY OF FUNDY TODAY.
AS A RESULT...WILL DROP THE WIND ADVISORY FOR SE MASS AND S RI AND
CHANGE THE HIGH WIND WARNING FOR THE CAPE AND ISLANDS TO A WIND
ADVISORY THRU 16Z TO GIVE DAY CREW A CHANCE TO ASSESS. PRIMARY
TIMEFRAME FOR IMPACT LIKELY TO BE UNTIL LATE MORNING.

OTHERWISE...
LINGERING SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS THE EAST SLOPES OF THE BERKSHIRES
SHOULD COME TO AN END THIS MORNING. OTHERWISE...A MUCH DRIER WEST
TO NORTHWEST FLOW OF AIR WILL BE USHERED INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
TODAY. THIS AIRMASS IS RELATIVELY MILD COMPARED TO WHAT WE HAVE
EXPERIENCED BEHIND MOST COLD FRONT/S THIS WINTER. PARTLY TO MOSTLY
SUNNY SKIES...WILL COMBINE WITH AN INCREASING FEBRUARY SUN ANGLE
AND A WELL MIXED ATMOSPHERE. GUIDANCE IS OFTEN TOO COOL IN THESE
SITUATIONS...ESPECIALLY WITH QUITE A MILD START. HIGHS SHOULD
REACH INTO THE UPPER 30S AND LOWER 40S ACROSS MUCH OF THE
INTERIOR...WITH MIDDLE 40S EXPECTED ACROSS MUCH OF THE COASTAL
PLAIN.

LOW PRESSURE IS NOW DOWN TO 981 MB IN THE GULF OF MAINE ACCORDING TO
LATEST MSAS.  THIS IS YIELDING VERY STRONG WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA
ACROSS THE CAPE/ISLANDS EARLY THIS MORNING AND VERY CLOSE TO MEETING
HIGH WIND CRITERIA IN A FEW LOCATIONS.  CERTAINLY WORTH CONTINUING
HIGH WIND WARNING WARNING FOR THE CAPE/ISLANDS THROUGH MID
MORNING...WITH AN ADVISORY JUST TO THE NORTHWEST OF THAT REGION.
THE STRONG WINDS ALONG THE SOUTHEAST NEW ENGLAND COAST WILL SLOWLY
SUBSIDE THIS MORNING AS PRESSURE GRADIENT WEAKENS.  HOWEVER...A WELL
MIXED ATMOSPHERE WILL KEEP THINGS BREEZY THROUGH THE AFTERNOON
ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM MONDAY/...
A WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING OVER SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
SHOULD KEEP THE WEATHER DRY TONIGHT.  HOWEVER...WEAK LOW PRESSURE
OVER THE GREAT LAKES WILL BRING AN INCREASE IN MID LEVEL CLOUDINESS
TONIGHT.  THEREFORE...GENERALLY EXPECT PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY
SKIES.  LOWS SHOULD RANGE FROM WELL DOWN INTO THE TEENS ACROSS THE
NORMALLY COLDER OUTLYING LOCATIONS...TO THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 20S IN
THE URBAN HEAT ISLANDS OF DOWNTOWN BOSTON/PROVIDENCE.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
MONDAY...
A VERY COMPLEX SYSTEM OF TWO LOW PRESSURES WILL IMPACT
THE REGION LATE MONDAY. MODELS BEGINNING TO SLOWLY CONVERGE ON A
SOLN FOR EACH OF THESE TWO WAVES. THE FIRST WILL INITIATE
CYCLOGENESIS ON A BAROCLINIC ZONE ESTABLISHED OVER THE CANADIAN
BORDER. THE SECOND INITIATING CYCLOGENESIS FROM THE GULF COAST AND
ALONG THE GULF STREAM. MODELS BEGINNING TO AGREE IN A PHASING OF
THESE TWO WAVES. HOWEVER...EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS FROM THERE IS
STILL A BIT VARIED. EXPECT MONDAY TO BE MOSTLY DRY AS PHASING
OCCURS LATE AND BAROCLINIC FORCING IS WELL N OF THE REGION.

MONDAY NIGHT...
THE AFOREMENTIONED PHASING LOOKS POSSIBLE MON NIGHT. FORCING FOR
LIFT ALOFT...IN THE WAY OF A STRONG JET...WILL ALLOW FOR SOME OMEGA
OVER THE REGION. BANDING CURRENTLY NOT LOOKING LIKE A STRONG
POSSIBILITY AS LLVL CYCLOGENESIS AND DEEPENING LOOKS
UNLIKELY...WITH AN OPEN TROF BEING THE DOMINANT FORCING MECHANISM.
HOWEVER...WITH THE TRANSFER OF ENERGY FROM THE NW LOW TO THE
COASTAL LOW PASSING JUST E OF THE BENCHMARK...EXPECT A STRATIFORM
AREA OF PRECIPITATION INTO TUE MORNING. WITH DRY AIR JUST TO THE
N...EXPECT OVERALL QPF TO BE ON THE LOW END.

TRENDED TOWARDS THE COOLER GFS SOLN...WHICH SUGGESTS MOSTLY SN NW
OF A PVD TO BOS LINE AND A MIX OF SN AND RA S...WITH RN ALONG THE
OUTER ARM OF THE CAPE AND ISLANDS. ECMWF STILL OUTLIER...SUGGESTING
COASTAL LOW IS SLOWER AND FLOW IS MORE AMPLIFIED. THIS BRINGS THE
LOW JUST W OF THE BENCHMARK. WITH STRONG JET ALOFT...EXPECT
PATTERN TO BE MORE PROGRESSIVE...AND COOLER. CURRENTLY KEEPING SN
LIGHT AND GENERALLY SUB ADVISORY.

TUESDAY...
DEPARTING LOW CONTINUES TO DEEPEN TUE...EXPECT REMAINING PRECIP TO
END DURING THE MORNING HOURS FROM W TO E. LOW TO MID LVL CAA
EXPECTED TO RAPIDLY INCREASE OVER AREA AS LLVL JET PASSES OVER
REGION. EXPECT GUSTY CONDITIONS TO OCCUR OVER MUCH OF THE CWA WITH
THIS SCENARIO...THIS WILL BE ESPECIALLY LIKELY OVER REGIONS WHERE
SKIES CLEAR EARLY ENOUGH TO ENHANCE LLVL INSTABILITY AND MIXING.
AIRMASS UPSTREAM HAS ARCTIC ORIGINS...SO EXPECTING COOL CONDITIONS
TO BEGIN TUE.

WEDNESDAY...
HIGH PRES RIDGING OVER S NEW ENGLAND FROM THE SW. LOOKS STRONG
ENOUGH TO KEEP WEAKENING WAVE TO THE N AT BAY ATTM. EXPECT COOL
AND BLUSTERY CONDITIONS TO PERSIST WITH STRONG GRADIENT OVER THE
REGION. LEANED AWAY FROM HPC TEMPS THIS TIME AROUND AS LOOKED TO
WARM FOR CONDITIONS.

THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY...
LATEST CALLS FOR A DRY START ON THU WITH HIGH PRES CONTINUING TO
HOLD ITS OWN TO THE SW. TREND IN THU/FRI SYSTEM HAS BEEN TO BE
MORE PROGRESSIVE WITH OVERALL PATTERN...SHIFTING THE DEEPENING LOW
WELL E OF THE BENCHMARK AND OUT OF REACH OF ANY IMPACT. THIS IS
FAVORED BY HPC IN RECENT DISCUSSIONS. ONLY OUTLIERS ARE ECMWF HI
RES AND A FEW MEMBERS OF GEFS WHICH STILL SUGGEST A GLANCING BLOW
TO SE MASS...AND RI IN THE FORM OF A QUICK SN. DUE TO THIS TREND
BEING VERY RECENT...THE CHANCE FOR ANY REVERSAL IN THIS SHIFT...AND
ECMWFS PERSISTENCE...WILL STILL SUGGEST LOW CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE
AFOREMENTIONED REGION FOR LATE THU THRU FRI MORNING. WILL KEEP QPF
VERY LOW AND JUST SUGGEST MOSTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS ACROSS
REMAINDER OF CWA.

SATURDAY/SUNDAY...
LONG RANGE GUIDANCE VERY SPREAD ON RESPONSE TO WAVE DIGGING SE
FROM NW TERRITORIES. WHILE BOTH ECMWF AND GFS CARRYING SOME
SEMBLANCE OF SFC LOW PRES IN RELATION TO THIS WAVE...TIMING IS
HIGHLY VARIED. HAVE OPTED TO KEEP POPS BELOW ANY MENTION OF
PRECIP...BUT SUGGEST THE POSSIBILITY OF INCREASING CLOUDINESS SAT
INTO SUN.

&&

FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...
  LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT
  MEDIUM...30 PERCENT TO 60 PERCENT
  HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT

TODAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAFS. VFR WILL CONTINUE FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE DAY. EXPECT BKN CEILINGS KORH AND W TO LIFT AND
BREAK...THIS HAS ALREADY OCCURRED E. GUSTS 30 TO 40 KTS ACROSS
CAPE AND ISLANDS WILL REDUCE THIS MORNING. EXPECT W WINDS GUSTING
20 TO 25 KTS ACROSS ALL TERMINALS THRU AFTERNOON.

TONIGHT...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN VFR. EXPECT HIGH CLOUDS TO OVERSPREAD
REGION WITH SOME MID CLOUDS TO APPROACH TOWARDS END OF THIS TAF
CYCLE. WINDS TO DIMINISH OVERNIGHT.

KBOS TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAFS. VFR THROUGH TODAY AND
TONIGHT. REMAINING LOW SCT DECK TO CONTINUE TO BREAK THIS
MORNING UNDER STRONG WNW FLOW. HIGH CLOUDS TO RETURN TONIGHT AND
A DESCENT TO MID CLOUDINESS TOWARD TOMORROW MORNING. WNW GUSTS 25
TO 30 KTS TO CONTINUE INTO MID MORNING SUBSIDING TO AROUND 20 KTS
THIS AFTERNOON.

OUTLOOK...MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...

MONDAY...VFR LIKELY. MEDIUM-HIGH CONFIDENCE.

MONDAY NIGHT-TUESDAY...LOW CONFIDENCE IN MVFR AND POTENTIAL IFR
CONDITIONS AS TWO LOW PRES SYSTEMS AFFECT REGION. IFR MOST LIKELY
IN AREAS OF -SN AND -RA WITH BEST CHANCES FOR FORMER BEING NW OF
KBOS TO KPVD LINE. WINDS TO SHIFT STRONGLY OUT OF THE NW
TUE...WITH WS A POSSIBILITY AS SHIFTING OCCURS.

WEDNESDAY...MEDIUM CONFIDENCE IN VFR...EXPECT WINDS TO REMAIN
STRONG WITH GUSTS EXCEEDING 30 KTS PARTICULARLY OVER TERMINALS
OPEN TO OCEAN.

THURSDAY...LOW TO MEDIUM CONFIDENCE IN VFR THROUGH THE DAY. LOW
CONFIDENCE IN MVFR AT TERMINALS SE OF KORH WITH LOW PRES MOVING ALONG
COAST LATE THURSDAY INTO THURSDAY NIGHT.

&&

.MARINE...
THIS MORNING...RAPIDLY DEEPENING LOW OVER THE BAY OF FUNDY WILL
CONTINUE TO PRODUCE WIND GUSTS APPROACHING 45 KTS THROUGH MID MORNING
ACROSS PRIMARILY OUTER WATERS BUT REMAIN BELOW STORM. GUSTS ON
INNER WATERS AND BAYS WILL ALSO CONTINUE TO BE GALE FORCE DURING
THIS TIME. HAVE DROPPED STORM WARNINGS FOR OUTER WATERS AS WINDS
WILL CONTINUE TO SUBSIDE AND BEST TIMEFRAME FOR STORM FORCE GUSTS
HAS PASSED. EXPECT SCA TO FOLLOW GALE INTO THIS AFTERNOON.

THIS AFTERNOON...
THE LOW QUICKLY LIFTS INTO THE CANADIAN MARITIMES SO WE SHOULD SEE
WINDS RAPIDLY DIMINISH BELOW GALE FORCE THRESHOLDS BY AFTERNOON.
HOWEVER...WILL STILL NEED SCA FOR WIND GUSTS AND SEAS ACROSS THE
OPEN WATERS.

TONIGHT...
A WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL RESULT IN WINDS BEING BELOW SCA
THRESHOLDS.  SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES FOR HAZARDOUS SEAS WILL LIKELY
STILL BE NEEDED FOR A PART OF THE NIGHT ACROSS THE SOUTHERN
OUTER-WATERS FOR LINGERING SEAS.

OUTLOOK...MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...

MONDAY...EXPECTING BELOW SCA CRITERIA FOR BOTH SEAS AND WINDS
THRU MONDAY.  MEDIUM CONFIDENCE.

TUESDAY...WINDS AND SEAS BUILDING THROUGHOUT THE DAY. LOW TO
MEDIUM CONFIDENCE IN GALE FORCE GUSTS LATE TUE IN STRONG NW
FLOW...ESPECIALLY OVER S WATERS. SEAS TO BUILD UP TO 8 FT OVER
OUTER WATERS IN LONG PERIOD SWELL.

WEDNESDAY...AFTER BRIEF LULL IN GUSTS LATE TUE NIGHT INTO WED
MORNING...EXPECT INCREASE IN W WINDS AGAIN WITH POSSIBILITY OF
GALE FORCE GUSTS BY AFTERNOON. SEAS EXPECTED TO REMAIN ELEVATED IN
SWELL THRU WED NIGHT.

THURSDAY...WINDS AND SEAS BELOW SCA.
