.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
BAND OF SCT SHOWERS AND ISOLD TSTMS DEVELOPED ALONG THE SPINE OF THE
WHITE MOUNTAINS TO THE MONADNOCKS IN THE N FLOW OUT OF CENTRAL NH
INTO CHESHIRE AND WESTERN HILLSBOROUGH COUNTIES DURING THIS
AFTERNOON. SOME ARE HOLDING TOGETHER ENOUGH TO MAKE IT INTO CENTRAL
MA. CORES OF THESE CELLS NOT TOO DEEP DUE TO DRY AIRMASS IN PLACE

CLEAR ACROSS MOST AREAS. MAY SEE PATCHY FOG DEVELOP ACROSS S NH/W MA
WELL AFTER MIDNIGHT. OVERNIGHT LOWS FORECAST TO BE MAINLY IN THE
50S...BUT IF WINDS DROP OFF IN THE VALLEYS...MAY SEE TEMPS FALL
BELOW 50 IN A FEW SPOTS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
THURSDAY...SHORT RANGE MODELS CONTINUE TO PUSH RIDGE ACROSS THE
REGION AS SURFACE HIGH BUILDS OFF THE MID ATLC COAST. WITH GOOD
SUBSIDENCE IN PLACE...EXPECT A MOSTLY SUNNY AND MILD DAY AS WINDS
VEER TO THE SOUTHWEST AND PICK UP A BIT. EXPECT TEMPS TO TOP OFF IN
THE LOWER-MID 80S AT MOST LOCATIONS AWAY FROM THE S COAST.

THURSDAY NIGHT...AS RIDGE BUILDS OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST...WILL
START TO SEE CLOUDS INCREASING FROM THE SOUTHWEST AS WARM FRONT
STARTS TO APPROACH FROM ATTENDANT LOW ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES. MODELS
ARE A BIT SLOWER IN PUSHING THE HIGH OFFSHORE...SO HAVE BACKED OFF
ON BRINGING THE PRECIP IN UNTIL AFTER MIDNIGHT ACROSS RI/N CT/
CENTRAL AND W MA. WITH LACK OF DAYTIME HEATING AND LACK OF GOOD
LIFT...DID NOT MENTION THUNDER IN THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST...FOR
NOW.

WITH CLOUDS INCREASING AND WARM AIR ADVECTION IN PLACE...TEMPS WILL
NOT BE AS COOL AS TONIGHT. EXPECT OVERNIGHT LOWS MAINLY IN THE MID
50S TO LOWER 60S.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
A PERIOD OF UNSETTLED WEATHER IS LIKELY FRIDAY AND FRI NIGHT AS
SHORTWAVE APPROACHES FROM THE GT LAKES. MID LEVEL VORTEX OVER

MID LEVEL TROF APPROACHES FROM THE EASTERN GT LAKES MOVING ACROSS
SNE FRI NIGHT. WEAK LOW LEVEL BOUNDARY/WARM FRONT LIFTS NWD INTO
THE REGION DURING FRI ALONG WITH AREA OF DEEPER MOISTURE WHICH WILL
BRING SOME SHOWERS TO THE REGION MOVING FROM SW TO NE. SYNOPTIC
LIFT IS RELATIVELY WEAK AND SOME MID LEVEL DRYING IS NOTED IN THE
AFTERNOON SO DON'T EXPECT A COMPLETE WASHOUT. HOWEVER...HIGHER
DEWPOINT AIR MOVES INTO THE REGION AND COMBINED WITH MARGINALLY
COOL AIR ALOFT WILL DESTABILIZE ATMOS WITH CAPES AROUND 1000 J/KG.
WE INCLUDED CHC AFTERNOON TSTMS WITH CHC SHOWERS/TSTMS LINGERING
INTO THE EVENING AS MID LEVEL TROF AXIS MOVES EAST ACROSS NEW ENG.

FRI TEMPS...LEANED TOWARD COOLER MET GUIDANCE DUE TO CLOUD COVER
AND SOUTHERLY FLOW.

SATURDAY...
THE SHORTWAVE AND TROF AXIS MOVES TO THE EAST BUT RESIDUAL COLD
POOL ALOFT WITH 500 MB TEMPS -14C AND DEWPOINTS STILL IN THE 60S
WILL GENERATE CAPES UP TO 1000 J/KG. SO SCT SHOWERS/TSTMS
ARE POSSIBLE AND WILL CONTINUE CHC POPS. SEASONABLE TEMPS 70S TO
LOWER 80S.

SUNDAY...
MID LEVEL LOW CENTER WILL BE PASSING TO THE N AND E...BUT COLUMN
IS DRY WITH NW FLOW IN PLACE. EXPECT DIURNAL CU TO DEVELOP BUT
DRY WEATHER SHOULD PREVAIL. SEASONABLE TEMPS 70S TO LOWER
80S...COOLEST N AND HIGHER ELEVATIONS.

MONDAY...
LOOKS DRY AND SEASONABLE WITH HIGH PRES IN CONTROL.

TUESDAY-WEDNESDAY...
FORECAST CONFIDENCE DECREASES AS GFS AND ECMWF BEGIN TO DIVERGE.
ECMWF FLATTENS UPSTREAM RIDGING WITH FAST MOVING SHORTWAVES
APPROACHING IN WESTERLY FLOW BRINGING CHC SHOWERS. GFS IS MORE
AMPLIFIED WITH THE RIDGE KEEPING SHORTWAVE ENERGY WELL NORTH AND
WEST WITH DRY WEATHER. 12Z ECMWF SOLUTION IS A CHANGE FROM ITS 00Z
RUN SO WE WENT WITH A DRY FORECAST BUT LOW CONFIDENCE THIS FAR
OUT. HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL REMAIN TO THE SW THROUGH TUE. GFS
