AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
940 PM EDT THU APR 14 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE ACROSS EASTERN CANADA TONIGHT THROUGH
SATURDAY...BRINGING DRIER AND COOLER WEATHER TO SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND. ANOTHER STORM IS ON THE HORIZON SATURDAY NIGHT INTO
SUNDAY WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE RAIN...STRONG WINDS AND
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS. DRY AND SEASONABLE WEATHER IS FORECAST FOR
EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING SOUTH WILL SEND A BACKDOOR COLD
FRONT THROUGH SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND OVERNIGHT.  SCATTERED MID/HIGH
LEVEL CLOUDINESS THIS EVENING WILL GRADUALLY PUSH TO THE SOUTH OF
THE REGION DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.  CHILLIER AIR WILL FILTER IN
BEHIND THE COLD FRONT.  LOW TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO FALL INTO
THE UPPER 20S AND LOWER 30S ACROSS SOUTHWEST NH/NORTHWEST MA...TO
THE UPPER 30S TO AROUND 40 IN THE URBAN HEAT ISLANDS OF
BOSTON/PROVIDENCE.  IT ALSO WILL BECOME BREEZY AFTER MIDNIGHT ALONG
PORTIONS OF THE COASTAL PLAIN...PARTICULARLY THE CAPE/ISLANDS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
THE HIGH PRESSURE MOVING ACROSS EASTERN CANADA WILL RESULT IN AN
EAST TO NORTHEAST FLOW FRIDAY. THIS IN TURN WILL RESULT IN A BIG
DIFFERENCE IN TEMPERATURES BETWEEN THE IMMEDIATE COAST AND FARTHER
INTO THE INTERIOR. BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES EXPECTED FRIDAY NIGHT
WITH CLEAR SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS LEADING TO EXCELLENT RADIATIONAL
COOLING CONDITIONS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
MAIN POINTS
*HIGH PRESSURE RETREATS TO THE NE SATURDAY
*STORM SYS ON TAP BEGINNING LATE SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY
*BRIEF PERIOD OF HIGH PRESSURE SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY *FRONT
DRAPED ACROSS THE RGN INTO MIDWEEK WITH CONTINUED PRECIP CHANCES

OVERVIEW
FAIRLY GOOD CONSENSUS AMONGST THE OPERATIONAL GFS/ECMWF. NOTABLY
WITH THE UPCOMING WEEKEND STORM THE 12Z NAM WAS THE SLOWEST OF THE
SOLNS WITH THE 0Z/12Z ECMWF SLIGHTLY FASTER THAN THE 12Z GFS IN
REGARDS TO THE COLD FRONT PROGRESSION...WENT WITH A BLEND OF THE 12Z
GFS/0Z ECMWF FOR SATURDAY-SUNDAY PD...WHILE CONSIDERING QPF OUTPUT
FROM THE 12Z NAM. REMAINDER OF THE FCST PD BEYOND SUNDAY CONTINUED A
CONSIDERATION OF THE GFS/ECMWF BLEND...YET INCORPORATED A
CONSIDERABLE WEIGHT OF BIAS-CORRECTED STATISTICAL FCST GUIDANCE.

DETAILS

*SATURDAY
UPR LVL RIDGE ACROSS THE NEW ENG RGN SAT MORN WILL SLIDE E TOWARDS
DUSK. WILL SEE DIFLUENT FLOW AHEAD OF THE NEG TILTED TROF TRANSLATE
EWD INTO THE OH RVR VLY...WHILE THE SFC HIGH RETREATS NEWD. E/SE SFC
FLOW WILL INCREASE IN RESPONSE WITH A STRONG 50-60 KT SLY AT
H925-H85 BY SAT NGT...MAY SEE SOME STRONG ONSHORE GUSTS IN EXCESS OF
20-25 MPH. ALTHO BETTER DYNAMICS WILL STILL BE TO THE FAR SW OF THE
FCST RGN...AFOREMENTIONED DIFLUENT FLOW COUPLED WITH WEAK ISENTROPIC
FLOW...INCREASING MOIST CONV AT MID-LVLS...AND SFC SELY ONSHORE FLOW
MOISTENING THE LOW-LVLS OF THE ATMOS MORESO ALONG THE SHORES AND
IMMEDIATE SRN NEW ENG...ANTICIPATE POPS TO INCREASE FROM CHC TO LKLY
OVER THE WRN INTERIOR AND SW TOWARDS DUSK. WITH REGARDS TO TEMPS...
CLOUDS WILL BE ON THE INCREASE AT MID-HIGH LVLS WHICH MAY LIMIT
DIURNAL HEATING OF THE DAY. IN ADDITION A COOLER AIR MASS WILL
REMAIN OVER THE INTERIOR FROM THE RETREATING HIGH WITH H85 TEMPS
RANGING -2 TO -4C. HAVE MID TO UPR 40S FOR NOW WITH A FEW AREAS
PSBLY AT OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE 50F THRU THE S INTERIOR.

*SATURDAY NIGHT
RIGHT ENTRANCE RGN OF THE H3 JET AXIS TRANSLATES NEWD INTO THE FCST
AREA BY SUN MORN...COUPLED WITH STRONG UPR LVL DIFLUENCE AHEAD OF
THE NEG TILTED H5 TROF AND MAIN SHRTWV VORT MAX LIFTING NEWD THRU
THE RGN. AS SUCH WILL LIKELY SEE THE STRONGEST ISENTROPIC AND FORCED
ASCENT THRU THE ATMOS COLUMN OF THE WARM AND HIGH THETAE AIR ALONG
THE WARM CONVEYOR BELT FROM THE S DURING THIS TIMEFRAME...ESPECIALLY
AROUND MIDNIGHT. ALSO SEEING H85 TEMPS OF +8C NOSING WELL N INTO
INTERIOR NEW ENG. THIS WARM AND MOIST FLOW N IS AIDED BY A STRONG
MID-LVL JET AT H925-H85 OF 60-70 KTS. HAVE GONE CATEGORICAL HIGH
POPS FOR THE PD...WHILE ALSO INSERTING THE MENTION OF THUNDER AS K
AND TT INDICES ARE ABOVE THRESHOLDS THRU MUCH OF NEW ENG AHEAD OF
THE APPROACHING SFC COLD FRNT. STRONG ONSHORE SLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE
WITH UPWARDS OF 30-35 MPH SUSTAINED WINDS AT THE SHORE AROUND THE
MIDNIGHT TIMEFRAME. WILL NEED TO CONSIDER THE POTENTIAL OF WIND
ADVISORIES BUT AT THIS POINT CONFIDENCE IS LOW. WINDS TO SHIFT OUT
OF THE W/SW BEHIND THE COLD FRONT. THROUGHOUT...ANTICIPATE STRONG
AND GUSTY SLY WINDS AS LIKELY MECHANICAL MIXING/PRECIP DRAG WILL
BRING FASTER MOMENTUM DOWN TO THE SFC AHEAD OF THE FRONT...AND GUSTY
WINDS PSBL IN WAKE OF THE FRONT. TEMPS WILL LIKELY COOL ONLY
SLIGHTLY WITH THE ABUNDANCE OF LLVL MOISTURE THRU THE ATMOS COLUMN
AND STRONG SLY WAA AHEAD OF THE COLD FRNT. WILL SEE LOW-MID 40S FOR
MINS RGN WIDE. WILL NEED TO MONITOR THE FCST OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF
DAYS FOR POTENTIAL OF HEAVY RAINS WITH EXPECTED CONVECTIVE ELEMENTS
AND VERY MOIST AND SATURATED AIR FLOWING AHEAD OF THE SYS.

*SUNDAY
RAINS LINGERING THRU THE ERN ZONES DURING THE MORNING PD ALONG AND
AHEAD OF THE SFC COLD FRONT. THIS WILL BE THE FAVORABLE RGN OF
STRONG MOIST ASCENT...UPR LVL DYNAMICS...AND CONTINUED CHCS FOR
THUNDER AND POTENTIAL HEAVY RAINS. AGAIN...12Z NAM IS SLOWEST WITH
THE PROGRESSION OF THE COLD FRONT AND KEEPS IT THRU THE RGN INTO THE
AFTN PD. PRESENT THINKING IS FOR ALL ENERGY TO BE OFFSHORE BY
MIDDAY. WILL GO CHC TO LIKELY POPS FOR THE ERN ZONES. SKIES WILL
LIKELY CLEAR IN WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT...YET CONTINUED CYCLONIC FLOW
AND DISTURBANCES THRU THE MID-LVLS AROUND THE LARGER LOW PRES CENTER
E OF THE HUDSON BAY RGN AND ACROSS NEW ENG WILL LIKELY RESULT IN
STRATOCU DEVELOPMENT. IN ADDITION SOME WEAK ISENTROPIC ASCENT IS
NOTED AS GULF MOISTURE STREAMS NEWD AROUND AN AREA OF HIGH PRES OVER
THE SERN CONUS. W/SW WINDS WITH POTENTIAL GUSTS OF 30 MPH AS
EXPECTED SUNSHINE WILL EFFECTIVELY MIX FASTER MOMENTUM ALOFT DOWN TO
THE SFC. HAVE GONE WARM WITH TEMPS WITH UPR 50S AND LOW 60S AS
AIRMASS MODERATES LITTLE BEHIND THE SYS.

*SUNDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY
A FAVORABLE FRONTOGENETICAL AND BAROCLINIC ZONE WILL DEVELOP AT
MID-LVLS ENHANCED BY SEVERAL UPR LVL JET STREAKS. A STATIONARY BNDRY
AT THE SFC WILL EVOLVE AND BECOME THE FOCUS FOR MOIST CONV AND
PRECIP CHCS THRU THE ERN GRT LKS RGN AND INTO NEW ENG. UNCERTAINTY
RESOLVES AS TO THE LOCALITY OF THE FRONTAL BNDRY AND ITS STATIONARY
NATURE... IT MAY WOBBLE AT TIMES RESULTING IN SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN
THE FCST AS HIGH PRES BUILDS ACROSS THE SERN CONUS...AND A DEEP LOW
OCCLUDES OVER THE ERN HUDSON BAY RGN...LATER TO BE REPLACED BY HIGH
PRES INTO TUESDAY. THRU THE PD WILL LIKELY SEE MID-UPR LVL CLOUDS
STREAM THRU THE AREA AS WARM AND MOIST GULF AIR CONTINUES TO LIFT
AND STREAM NEWD AIDED BY WEAK ISENTROPIC PROCESSES. AS MOISTURE
CONTINUALLY POOLS AGAINST THE SFC FRONTAL BNDRY DRAPED THRU THE RGN
INTO MONDAY...ALONG WITH MOISTURE FETCH OFF THE GRT LKS...WILL
LIKELY SEE CLOUDS LOWER WITH CHC POPS SPREADING THRU NEW ENG. S/SW
FLOW WILL EXIST S OF THE FRONT...WITH VARIABLE WINDS WITHIN ITS
VICINITY. COULD SEE SOME GUSTS IF AT ANY POINT SKIES CLEAR AND
DIURNAL HEATING EFFECTIVELY MIXES THE LLVLS. TEMPS A CHALLENGE WITH
PRECIP CHCS AND POTENTIAL CLOUDS. HAVE KEPT CLOSE TO CLIMO.

*TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY
DEEP LOW EJECTS OUT OF THE CNTRL PLAINS WITH DIFLUENCE PUSHING E
AHEAD OF THE MAIN NEG TILTED TROF. MOISTURE POOLING TO INCREASE
ALONG THE NRLY STATIONARY FRONTAL BNDRY THRU NEW ENG...BUT THE PUSH
OF THE SYS NEWD WILL LIFT THE FRONTAL BNDRY NWD INTO WEDNESDAY. INTO
WEDNESDAY WARM SECTOR LOOKS TO PUSH N WITH WARM AND MOIST GULF AIR
WITH H85 TEMPS +10 TO +14C POTENTIALLY RIDING OVER THE RGN. SUCH
OUTCOMES WOULD NET SIGNIFICANTLY WARM TEMPS AT THE SFC WITH
EXPECTANT CLEARING SKIES. SLY FLOW TO INCREASE WITH POTENTIAL GUSTS
FOR THE WEDNESDAY TIMEFRAME.

*WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND BEYOND
MDL SOLNS SUGGEST THE SYS OUT OF THE CNTRL PLAINS KICKS THRU THE RGN
OFF TO THE N AND E WITH AN ATTENDANT SFC COLD FRONT. WARM AND MOIST
CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE AHEAD OF THE FRONT...PLUMMETING THEREAFTER AS
COOLER CANADIAN AIR UNDER NW FLOW FOLLOWS BEHIND. UNCERTAINTY AS TO
REGARDS OF THE REMAINDER OF THE FCST AND WENT CLOSE TO STATISTICAL
GUIDANCE FOR THE PERIOD.
