Area forecast discussion, Mar 26, 3:34 AM EDT, 9 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
334 AM EDT SAT MAR 26 2011
.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL MAINTAIN DRY AND COOLER THAN NORMAL WEATHER
INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. LOW PRESSURE APPROACHING FROM THE OHIO
VALLEY WILL BRING A CHANCE OF RAIN WED INTO THU...POSSIBLY WET
SNOW ACROSS HIGHER ELEVATIONS.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO BUILD INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND WITH A
MID LEVEL LOW IN THE MARITIMES. WILL SEE MOSTLY SUNNY TO SUNNY
SKIES TODAY. H85 TEMPS -10 TO -12...EXPECT BELOW NORMAL TEMPS TO
CONTINUE WITH HIGHS IN THE 30S. USED A BLEND OF THE MAV/MET
GUIDANCE FOR TEMPERATURES. GOOD MIXING WILL ALLOW GUSTY
NORTHWESTERLY WINDS TO AROUND 25 MPH TO MIX TO THE SURFACE.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SUNDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS IN THE AREA THROUGH SUNDAY AS THE MID LEVEL
LOW SLOWLY SLIDES NORTHEASTWARD. MOSTLY CLEAR TO CLEAR SKIES SHOULD
PREVAIL THROUGH THE SHORT TERM. TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE BELOW
NORMAL FOR LATE MARCH. HOWEVER...SLIGHTLY WARMER HIGH TEMPS ARE
EXPECTED SUNDAY WITH H85 TEMPS -8 TO -10 RESULTING IN TEMPS IN THE
MID 30S TO MID 40S. GUSTY NORTHWEST TO WEST WINDS WILL MIX DOWN
AGAIN SUNDAY.
&&
.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...
* DRY AND COOL WEATHER THROUGH TUE
* RAIN AND INTERIOR WET SNOW POSSIBLE WED/THU
UPPER LOW REMAINS IN PLACE OVER MARITIMES THROUGH TUE RESULTING IN
COOLER THAN NORMAL TEMPERATURES....ALTHOUGH DRY WEATHER WILL
PERSIST WITH HIGH PRESSURE ANCHORED FROM OH VALLEY TO MID
ATLANTIC. SHORT WAVES ROTATING AROUND BASE OF UPPER LOW WILL BRING
SOME CLOUDINESS TO REGION SUN NIGHT/MON...ESPECIALLY TO NORTHERN
MA AND SW NH.
LARGER SCALE PATTERN BECOMES MORE COMPLICATED DURING MIDDLE AND
END OF NEXT WEEK AS UPPER LOW LOSES ITS INFLUENCE ON REGION AND
SPLIT FLOW DEVELOPS ACROSS NORTH AMERICA. WHILE WE ARE CONFIDENT
IN SLOW MODERATION IN TEMPERATURES /BACK TO NEAR NORMAL BY END OF
WEEK/...WE ARE LESS CONFIDENT IN TIMING OF LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
WHICH LOOKS TO AFFECT SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND WED INTO THU.
00Z GFS IS A BIT FASTER THAN ECMWF IN CLOSING OFF SOUTHERN STREAM
LOW MOVING THROUGH PLAINS AND LOWER GREAT LAKES TUE/WED BUT BOTH
MODELS EVENTUALLY ROTATE SYSTEM THROUGH NEW ENGLAND. SO WHILE WE
THINK CHANCES FOR RAIN HAVE INCREASED FROM PREVIOUS FORECASTS...
TIMING IS IN QUESTION. IT IS CERTAINLY POSSIBLE WED REMAINS DRY
AND MOST OF RAIN FALLS THU...OR EVEN THU INTO FRI. FOR NOW WE
SIMPLY HAVE CHANCE POPS WED INTO THU GIVEN UNCERTAINTY THIS FAR
OUT IN TIME.
PRECIPITATION TYPE MAY ALSO BE AN ISSUE. LOW LEVEL THICKNESSES
AND 925 MB TEMPERATURES ARE COLD ENOUGH TO SUPPORT SNOW ACROSS E
SLOPES OF BERKSHIRES AND WORCESTER HILLS INTO SW NH...AND POSSIBLY
INTO MUCH OF NORTHERN CT AND NW RI WED NIGHT.
&&
.AVIATION /07Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...
LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT
MEDIUM...30 PERCENT TO 60 PERCENT
HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT
TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE VFR. GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS
DURING THE DAY.
KBOS TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE VFR.
OUTLOOK...SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...
SUN NIGHT THROUGH TUE...VFR. NW WINDS GUSTING TO 25KT. HIGH CONFIDENCE.
WED...MVFR POSSIBLE IN RAIN AND FOG. MEDIUM CONFIDENCE.
&&
.MARINE...
TODAY...WAVEWATCH SEAS ARE 1-2 FEET UNDERDONE...SO BUMPED THEM UP
A A COUPLE OF FEET...PARTICULARLY ON THE OUTER WATERS. EXPECT 5 TO
7 FOOT SEAS TODAY WITH NORTHWESTERLY WINDS GUSTING TO AROUND 25
KTS. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES ARE UP FOR MOST OF THE WATERS.
TONIGHT...SEAS 5 TO 7 FEET WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH WITH NORTHWEST
WINDS GUSTING TO AROUND 25 KTS. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES CONTINUE FOR
THE OUTER WATERS.
SUNDAY...SEAS 5 TO 6 FEET WITH WESTERLY WINDS GUSTING TO NEAR 25
KTS. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL LIKELY HAVE TO CONTINUE FOR SOME
OF THE MARINE ZONES.
OUTLOOK...SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...
SUN NIGHT THROUGH TUE...SCA CONDITIONS PROBABLE. UPPER LOW REMAINS
OVER MARITIMES AND PRODUCES BRISK NW FLOW.
WED...DIMINISHING WINDS AND SEAS AS HIGH PRES MOVES OFF MID
ATLANTIC COAST AND LOW PRES TRACKS ACROSS OH VALLEY.
