Special Weather Statement, NWS Boston/Norton, MA

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
633 PM EDT MON AUG 8 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
WEAK HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING DRIER WEATHER TONIGHT INTO THE FIRST
PART OF TUESDAY. ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM SHOULD BRING SHOWERS
LATE TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. MAINLY DRY WEATHER WITH TEMPERATURES AT
OR SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL SHOULD FOLLOW FOR THE END OF THE WORK WEEK
AND POSSIBLY INTO THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
MINOR TWEAKS TO FCST TO REFLECT CURRENT TRENDS. AREA OF SHRA/TSTMS
MOVING OFFSHORE WITH A BIT OF DEVELOPMENT IN THE CT VALLEY. WITH
SUN SETTING...LAPS SUGGESTS STABILIZING COLUMN. THEREFORE...SUSPECT
THESE SHRA/TSTMS TO BE THE FINAL CONVECTIVE PUSH IN ADVANCE OF
SHORTWAVE ALOFT. WV IMG SUGGESTS BASE OF THIS WAVE IS PUSHING
THROUGH SNE ATTM...THEREFORE SUBSIDENCE ON THE BACKSIDE /WHERE
SKIES HAVE CLEARED ALREADY/ WILL COMBINE WITH THE STABILIZATION
PROCESSES TO CONTINUALLY WIND DOWN AND DIMINISH FURTHER CONVECTIVE
DEVELOPMENT. WILL UPDATE POPS TO REFLECT EXPECTED TRENDS...ADDING
POPS OVER ESSEX COUNTY WHERE A FEW SHRA WILL PUSH THROUGH LATE
THIS EVENING. OTHERWISE CLEARING SKIES SAVE FOR THE S
COAST/CAPE/ISLANDS WHERE STRATUS/FOG WILL LIKELY REDEVELOP
OVERNIGHT.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
NOTING COLD FRONT WORKING ACROSS N CT/N RI/SE MA AT 20Z. WITH
FIRST BATCH OF SCT SHOWERS BRINGING BETTER LOW LEVEL MOISTURE INTO
SOME AREAS ESPECIALLY ACROSS SE MA...THIS ALLOWED MORE CONVECTION
TO GENERATE AND BECOME STRONGER. AS CELLS APPROACHED S COAST AND
INTERACTED WITH WEAK SEA BREEZE FRONT...SOME DID BEEF UP.

EXPECT A FEW MORE SHOWERS/TSTMS WORKING SE ACROSS THE REGION...BUT
APPEAR TO BE LESSENING AS THEY WORK OUT OF S NH. EXPECT ANY LEFTOVER
SHOWERS/TSTMS TO PUSH SE AND DISSIPATE AROUND OR JUST AFTER SUNSET.

SKIES SHOULD AT LEAST PARTIALLY CLEAR...BUT SOME LOW CLOUDS MAY
LINGER ALONG THE S COAST. WILL LIKELY SEE MORE PATCHY DENSE FOG
ACROSS S COAST...CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS...BUT DEWPTS SHOULD DROP
OFF THROUGH THE NIGHT AS DRIER AIR WORKS INTO THE REGION.  MAY ALSO
SEE SOME LATE NIGHT PATCHY FOG INLAND MAINLY ACROSS THE SUSCEPTIBLE
VALLEYS.

EXPECT TEMPS TO FALL BACK TO THE UPPER 50S AND 60S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/...
WEAK HIGH PRES WILL BUILD ACROSS THE REGION EARLY TUESDAY AS CENTER
PASSES ACROSS NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. NOT MUCH PRESSURE GRADIENT TO
SPEAK OF...BUT WILL BE AN ONSHORE FLOW. COLD FRONT AND WEAK LOW WILL
START TO APPROACH DURING THE AFTERNOON. WILL SEE MID AND HIGH CLOUDS
INCREASING DURING THE DAY...BUT MOST OF THE MOISTURE WILL REMAIN TO
THE W UNTIL TUE NIGHT. MAY HAVE CHANCE SHOWERS ACROSS CT VALLEY.
WITH TEMPS TOPPING OFF AROUND 80 DEGREES FROM KHFD-KCEF...MAY BE
ENOUGH INSTABILITY TO CAUSE ISOLD TSTM AS WELL.

DAYTIME HIGHS WILL REACH THE MID 70S TO LOWER 80S.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...

  * ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN WITH UNSETTLED WEATHER AROUND MID WEEK
    AND THEN AGAIN POSSIBLY LATE NEXT WEEKEND
  * HIGH PRESSURE SHOULD BRING A PERIOD OF DRY WEATHER THU INTO
    SAT

MODEL PREFERENCES AND OVERVIEW...
MODELS STILL IN FAIRLY GOOD SYNOPTIC SCALE AGREEMENT ON THE
PATTERN THROUGH THE LONG TERM. WITH WEAK HIGH PRES IN RESPONSE TO
SHORTWAVE RIDGING ALOFT. THE NEXT FEATURE OF NOTE IS A DEEP
LONGWAVE TROF DIGGING TOWARD THE SE FROM ON AND QC. WHILE OVERALL
TIMING OF THE LONGWAVE IS WELL AGREED UPON...THE TIMING OF
SHORTWAVE ENERGY ROTATING THROUGH ITS BASE IS DIFFICULT TO DISCERN
THIS FAR OUT. ATTM...ISENTROPIC LIFT INDUCED BY WAA ON THE
BACKSIDE OF THE EXITING HIGH LOOKS TO BE STRONG ENOUGH LATE IN THE
DAY TUE ACROSS WRN PORTIONS OF THE CWA. ECMWF/GFS/GEFS MEAN ALL IN
REASONABLE AGREEMENT ON THE TIMING OF AN H85 LLJ AROUND 06Z
TIMEFRAME...WHICH WILL LIKELY INITIATE PRECIP IN THE REMAINDER OF
THE CWA BY THIS TIME. THE KEY WILL BE THE ORIENTATION/PLACEMENT OF
A WARM FRONT S OF SNE THROUGH WED. ATTM...ECMWF/GFS/GEFS MEAN NOW
FAVOR LOW PRES DEVELOPING AND MOVING ALONG THE FRONT JUST ALONG S
COAST. GIVEN THE TREND OF RECENT MODEL RUNS SUGGESTING THIS
SCENARIO...TAKING OVER FROM THE COLD FRONT TO THE NW...EXPECT AREA
OF RAIN/EMBEDDED CONVECTION TO CONTINUE INTO THE DAY WED. THE
SECONDARY CONSEQUENCE OF THIS NEW DEVELOPMENT IS TO SLOW THE
SYSTEM...ALLOWING PRECIP TO CONTINUE INTO WED NIGHT.
FINALLY...MODELS STILL AGREE THAT HIGH PRES AND ASSOCIATED RIDGING
DOMINATES LATTER PORTIONS OF THE WORK WEEK. GIVEN THE GENERAL
AGREEMENT BETWEEN OPNL MODELS...A BLEND WILL GENERALLY BE USED FOR
GRIDS.

DETAILS...

TUE...
WEAK HIGH PRES IN RESPONSE TO RIDGING INDUCED BY LONGWAVE TROF
THE THE NW WILL AFFECT THE REGION DURING MUCH OF THE DAY. THE
TRANSITION OCCURS THROUGH THE DAY AS THE HIGH SLIDES TO THE E. WAA
ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE EXITING HIGH WILL LIKELY YIELD ENOUGH LIFT
TO OVERCOME THE WEAK SUBSIDENCE. THEREFORE...EXPECT SOME
-SHRA/TSTM ACTIVITY ESPECIALLY W IN ADVANCE OF THE APPROACHING
WARM FRONT INDUCED BY THE LONGWAVE TROF. MODELS CONTINUE TO SLOW
THIS FRONT...SO WILL LIKELY MAINTAIN THIS TREND. TEMPS WILL LIKELY
BE A BIT WARM WITH H85 TEMPS OF +15C TO BE FULLY REALIZED...AND
INCREASING DEWPTS ARE EXPECTED WITH THE EXITING HIGH.

TUE NIGHT THRU WED NIGHT...
WITH MODELS NOW COMING IN LINE WITH LOW PRES DEVELOPMENT ON SRN
TIP OF A COLD FRONT AND RIDING ALONG WARM FRONT ORIENTED ALONG THE
S COAST...EXPECT A PERIOD OF CONVECTIVE -SHRA OVERNIGHT TO DEVELOP
INTO MORE OF AN AREA OF STRATIFORM RAIN AS CYCLOGENESIS INITIATES.
THIS WILL ALSO BE FED BY A SLY LLJ AT H85 MOVING E OVER SRN
PORTIONS OF THE FA. THE KEY WILL BE THE MOVEMENT OF THIS NEW LOW.
WITH THE CURRENT TREND SUGGESTING IT MOVES ALONG THE WARM FRONT TO
THE S...PRECIP WILL LIKELY CONTINUE WITH A WEAK TROWAL SET UP
THROUGH THE DAY. INSTABILITY PARAMETERS ARE MEAGER WITH 5.5C/KM
LAPSE RATES. THE BEST INSTABILITY WILL ALONG THE FRONTAL
CONVERGENCE ASSOCIATED WITH THE COLD FRONT...SO WRN PORTIONS WILL
BE THE AREA TO WATCH. FOR NOW...EXPECT A CONTINUATION OF -SHRA/-RA
WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF SOME EMBEDDED TSTMS WITH MOD RA INTO WED
NIGHT DUE TO THE SLOW MOVING LOW PRES TO THE S.

THU THRU SAT...
AFTER THE SLOW MOVING LOW PRES EXITS TO THE E...THE LONGWAVE TROF
BEGINS TO SETTLE OVER NEW ENGLAND. COOL AIRMASS AND ASSOCIATED
HIGH PRES WILL YIELD A PERIOD OF DRY BUT ANOMALOUSLY COOL
CONDITIONS THROUGH THE LATTER PART OF THE WEEK. H85 TEMPS ARE
PROGGED TO DIP INTO THE UPPER SINGLE DIGITS...SO EVEN WITH FULL
SUNSHINE HIGHS MAY ONLY REACH INTO THE MID TO UPPER 70S THU AND
FRI.
