Special Weather Statement, NWS Boston/Norton, MA

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
741 PM EDT TUE AUG 2 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE OFFSHORE TONIGHT. LOW PRESSURE PASSING
SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND LATE WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT MAY
PRODUCE A FEW SHOWERS ALONG THE SOUTH COAST. QUIET WEATHER
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY GIVES WAY TO ANOTHER CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES
INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE
REGION FROM THE WEST EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
MESOSCALE UPDATE 730 PM...

TSTMS FLARED UP ACROSS CAPE COD IN AN AREA WHERE MCAPES INCREASED
TO 1000 J/KG AND 0-6KM SHEAR NEAR 40 KT. THESE STORMS HAVE
ORGANIZED INTO A LINE AND ARE MOVING S OF THE CAPE ALTHOUGH THEY
MAY CLIP ACK 00-01Z.

ELSEWHERE...RADAR IS SHOWING SCT SHOWERS AND ISOLD TSTMS MOVING
ACROSS SE MA WHERE MLCAPES ARE LESS...AROUND 500 J/KG.
HOWEVER...LOW PROB FOR AN ISOLD TSTM ACROSS SE MA TO BRIEFLY
SPIKE UP NEXT HOUR AS DEEP LAYER SHEAR IS STRONG. HOWEVER...WITH
LOSS OF HEATING...TREND THIS EVENING WILL BE FOR DIMINISHING
INTENSITY AS THE SHOWERS/ISOLD TSTMS MOVE OFF THE COAST.

CLEARING SETS IN BEHIND COLD FRONT LATER TONIGHT. EXPECT PATCHY
FOG ACROSS INTERIOR VALLEYS AS WELL AS NEAR S COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
MAIN ITEM OF CONCERN IS EFFECTS OF MCS AS IT DIVES SE FROM UPPER
GREAT LAKES TONIGHT. MODELS HAVE BEEN INSISTENT THAT THIS FEATURE
WILL MOVE ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND OVER PAST FEW DAYS...IN
PARTICULAR NAM...BUT MODEL CONSENSUS NOW POINTS TO A MORE SOUTHERN
TRACK. INTERESTING TO NOTE NAM AND SREFS REMAIN MOST AGGRESSIVE IN
BRINGING RAINFALL INTO REGION WED...WHILE GFS/00Z ECMWF KEEP BULK
OF ANY ACTIVITY TO OUR S.

BASED UPON MID LEVEL FLOW AND CLIMATOLOGY WE FAVOR MORE SOUTHERN
GFS SOLUTION...AND WILL RESTRICT CHANCE POPS TO OUR FAR W/SW ZONES
WED AFTERNOON. IT IS USUALLY TOUGH TO GET REMNANTS OF MCS INTO
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND UNLESS SYSTEM ORIGINATES N OF GREAT LAKES.
WE WILL PROBABLY SEE A GOOD AMOUNT OF MID AND HIGH CLOUDS OVER
AREA...ESPECIALLY IN OUR WESTERN ZONES...BUT BALANCE OF DAY LOOKS
TO BE DRY.

FORECAST HIGHS LEAN MORE TOWARD GFS MOS GIVEN MODEL PREFERENCE.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
* MAINLY DRY AND SEASONABLE THURSDAY AND FRIDAY
* SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY
* DRY WEATHER RETURNS EARLY NEXT WEEK

OVERVIEW...
MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON OVERALL LARGE SCALE PATTERN
DURING THE EXTENDED PERIOD ALTHOUGH THERE IS MORE UNCERTAINTY WITH
THE DETAILS. MID LEVEL VORTEX OVER THE MARITIMES EARLY IN THE
PERIOD WILL LIFT OUT WITH SHORTWAVE RIDGING MOVING IN FOR FRI.
FROM THE THE WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...A BROAD LOW AMPLITUDE
TROF WILL GRADUALLY DESCEND UPON THE GT LAKES AND NEW ENG AS
SHORTWAVES ROTATE AROUND JAMES BAY VORTEX. TIMING OF THESE
SHORTWAVES MOVING THROUGH THE LOW AMPLITUDE FLOW IS UNCERTAIN THIS
FAR OUT...BUT LATEST GUIDANCE SUGGESTS BEST CHANCE OF
SHOWERS/TSTMS WILL BE SAT NIGHT INTO SUNDAY FOLLOWED BY MOSTLY DRY
CONDITIONS EARLY NEXT WEEK. TEMPS WILL AVERAGE CLOSE TO
SEASONABLE NORMALS.

WED NIGHT...
MODEL CONSENSUS TRACKS LOW PRES FAR ENOUGH S OF NEW ENG TO KEEP
BULK OF SHOWERS/TSTM ACTIVITY TO THE SW AND S WED NIGHT.
DISCOUNTED SREF WHICH IS TOO FAR NORTH AND EAST WITH PRECIP
SHIELD. IT APPEARS OUR SW ZONES WILL HAVE BEST CHANCE TO CLIPPED
BY THE NE FRINGE OF THIS MCS WED EVENING AS DEEP LAYER THETA-E
GRADIENT MOVES INTO REGION FROM THE WEST. HIGHEST POPS WHICH WILL
BE IN THE CHC CATEGORY WILL BE FROM SW MA AND CT TO SW RI WITH
SLIGHT CHC POPS EXTENDING JUST TO THE NE FROM CENTRAL MA TO SE MA.
OTHERWISE MAINLY DRY WEATHER ALTHOUGH WITH MOCLDY SKIES.

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...
MAINLY DRY WEATHER EXPECTED FOR MOST OF THIS PERIOD...ALTHOUGH
CANT RULE OUT A BRIEF SHOWER/TSTM DEVELOPING THU AFTERNOON IN WEAK
INSTABILITY AXIS...MAINLY INTERIOR LOCATIONS. MAX TEMPS REACHING
LOW AND MID 80S...BUT EXPECT SEABREEZES TO DEVELOP BOTH DAYS
WHICH WILL KEEP THE COAST COOLER.

SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY...
NEXT SHORTWAVE LIKELY TO AFFECT SNE SAT NIGHT INTO SUNDAY AS
FRONTAL WAVE MOVES EWD INTO THE REGION. THINK MOST OF SAT WILL BE
DRY..ESPECIALLY E ZONES WITH JUST A CHANCE OF SHOWERS REACHING W
ZONES IN THE AFTERNOON. SEASONABLE TEMPS SAT BUT MORE UNCERTAINTY
WITH SUNDAY TEMPS. IF SHOWERS LINGER THROUGH THE AFTERNOON THEN
OUR SUNDAY TEMPS MAY END UP TOO WARM...BUT IT COULD BE QUITE
HUMID.

MONDAY AND TUESDAY...
LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST THIS FAR OUT...BUT LATEST GUIDANCE SUGGEST
MAINLY DRY AND SEASONABLE AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE
WEST.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...
  LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT
  MODERATE...30 PERCENT TO 60 PERCENT
  HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT

TONIGHT...
LINE OF SHOWERS/TSTMS WILL BE EXITING CAPE COD AROUND 8 PM AND
MAY CLIP ACK BY 01Z. ELSEWHERE SCT SHOWERS AND ISOLD TSTMS WILL
QUICKLY DIMINISH ACROSS SE MA THROUGH 01Z. OTHERWISE...VFR
TONIGHT WITH PATCHY FOG DEVELOPING ACROSS INTERIOR VALLEYS AND
AROUND S COAST.

VFR CIGS AOA 100 EXPECTED WED. SHOWERS SHOULD REMAIN SW OF NEW
ENGLAND THROUGH DAY...ALTHOUGH CIGS COULD LOWER TO MVFR TOWARD
EVENING AROUND BDL.

KBOS TERMINAL...
HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAF. WIND SHIFT TO N EXPECTED 19Z-21Z. MAIN
TIME FRAME FOR TSTMS IS 21Z-00Z...SOME OF WHICH MAY PRODUCE HAIL
AND STRONG WIND GUSTS WITH BRIEF MVFR.

OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...

WEDNESDAY NIGHT...MEDIUM CONFIDENCE. MAINLY VFR BUT LOW PROB FOR A
PERIOD OF MVFR CONDITIONS IN SHOWERS/SCT TSTMS SW ZONES IN THE
EVENING. PATCHY LATE NIGHT MVFR/IFR FOG ALSO POSSIBLE IN NORMAL
FOG PRONE LOCATIONS.

THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...MEDIUM TO HIGH CONFIDENCE. MAINLY VFR.
LOW PROB FOR A BRIEF SHOWER/TSTM THU AFTERNOON.

SATURDAY...MEDIUM CONFIDENCE. MAINLY VFR.

SAT NIGHT INTO SUNDAY...LOW TO MEDIUM CONFIDENCE.  CONDITIONS
LOWERING TO MVFR/IFR AS SHOWERS/SCT TSTMS MOVE IN FROM THE WEST.

&&

.MARINE...
STILL HAVE POTENTIAL FOR SCATTERED TSTMS THROUGH THIS EVENING...
MAINLY ON E MA WATERS WHERE STRONGER STORMS COULD PRODUCE HAIL AND
GUSTY WINDS. OTHERWISE LIGHT WINDS AND SEAS EXPECTED TONIGHT AND
WED WITH FLAT SEAS.

SHOWERS WED SHOULD REMAIN W OF RI BORDER THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON.

OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...

WINDS AND SEAS REMAIN BELOW SCA CRITERIA THROUGH SAT. THERE IS A
CHANCE FOR A PERIOD OF SCA SOUTHERLY WINDS SAT NIGHT INTO SUNDAY
AHEAD OF A FRONTAL WAVE. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE
POSSIBLE SAT NIGHT INTO SUNDAY.
