AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CARIBOU ME
353 AM EST FRI JAN 7 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A LARGE UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL TAKE SHAPE OVER THE
GREAT LAKES TODAY. THE LOW WILL MOVE EAST THIS WEEKEND AS SURFACE
LOWS REMAIN SOUTHEAST OF THE REGION.
&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER LABRADOR CONTINUES TO RIDGE SOUTHWARD
ACROSS THE STATE EARLY THIS MORNING. HOWEVER, INVERTED TROUGH OVER
NEW BRUNSWICK WITH CLOUDS AND LIGHT SNOW CONTINUES TO EXPAND
WESTWARD TOWARDS WASHINGTON COUNTY. ONLY MODEL PICKING UP ON THIS
FEATURE IS HRRR WHICH IS NOT FAR ENOUGH WEST WITH THE SNOW EARLY THIS
MORNING. FORECAST CHALLENGE WILL BE HOW FAR WEST THE SNOW WILL
MOVE. LITTLE HELP FROM ANY OF THE MODELS WITH THIS FEATURE SO FOR
NOW WILL ADD SNOW SHOWERS TO WASHINGTON COUNTY WITH LITTLE OR NO
SNOW ACCUMULATION AND THEN BET ON THE SURFACE RIDGE TO HOLD OFF
ANY MORE WESTWARD MOVEMENT INTO THE REMAINDER OF THE REGION. IF
THIS DOES NOT HOLD UP, WILL HAVE TO MAKE MAJOR CHANGES IN THE
FORECAST FOR TODAY FOR AROOSTOOK AND WASHINGTON COUNTIES.

HIGH AND MID CLOUDS APPROACHING FROM THE SOUTHWEST WILL SPREAD
ACROSS THE REGION TODAY. ANOTHER INVERTED TROUGH IS FORECASTED TO
FORM LATER THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS EASTERN NEW BRUNSWICK AND MOVE
WESTWARD INTO EASTERN MAINE TONIGHT. WARM AIR ADVECTION AND
FORCING WITH THE TROUGH WILL PRODUCE SNOW FOR MOST OF EASTERN
SECTIONS TONIGHT. BUFKIT SOUNDINGS INDICATE BEST OMEGA EITHER
BELOW OR ABOVE THE FAVORABLE DENDRITIC GROWTH ZONE SO EXPECT LIGHT
SNOW AND THUS LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS TONIGHT WITH THIS FEATURE.
HIGHEST SNOWFALL AMOUNTS WILL BE ACROSS NORTHEAST SECTIONS WITH
AROUND AN INCH OF SNOW WILL LESSER AMOUNTS ELSEWHERE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
500 MB LOW ACROSS THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES REGION SATURDAY MORNING
WILL DRIFT EAST AND MOVE EAST OF NOVA SCOTIA DURING SUNDAY.
SERIES OF WEAK S/WVS ROTATING AROUND THE LOW WILL BRING SOME
PERIODS OF LIGHT SNOW TO PORTIONS OF THE FA THROUGH THE PERIOD.
THE FIRST SHOT WILL COME DURING SATURDAY...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE
NORTHERN AND EASTERN PORTION OF THE CWA. EXPECTING QPF TO BE
LIGHT...GENERALLY AROUND A TENTH OF AN INCH OR SO. AS THIS FIRST
DISTURBANCE MOVES TO OUR NORTHWEST LATER SATURDAY EXPECT ANY
STEADIER LIGHT SNOW TO DIMINISH. ANOTHER DISTURBANCE ROTATING
AROUND THE UPPER LOW WILL BRING YET ANOTHER CHANCE FOR A PERIOD OF
LIGHT SNOW DURING SUNDAY. ONCE AGAIN QPF WILL BE LIGHT WITH THIS
SYSTEM AS WELL. HIGH TEMPERATURES SATURDAY AND SUNDAY WILL
GENERALLY RANGE FROM THE MID TO UPPER 20S NORTH AND UPPER 20S TO
LOWER 30S DOWNEAST. LOW SATURDAY NIGHT ARE EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM
THE LOW TO MID 20S.
&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
LOW PRESSURE AT THE SURFACE AND ALOFT WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST
OF THE MARITIMES SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY. THERE MAY STILL BE A
FEW LINGERING SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS NORTHERN AREAS SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH
MONDAY...OTHERWISE EXPECT MAINLY DRY WEATHER CONDITIONS. DRY AND
FAIR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH
TUESDAY AS WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BUILD ACROSS THE REGION FROM THE
NORTH. MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE THAT A STORM SYSTEM WILL
DEVELOP ALONG THE EAST LATER TUESDAY AND THEN MOVE NORTHEAST
DURING WEDNESDAY. OPERATIONAL MODELS CONTINUE TO TAKE THIS SYSTEM
WELL TO OUR EAST. DID NOTE THAT THERE WERE QUITE A FEW GFS
ENSEMBLE MEMBERS THAT WERE CONSIDERABLY FURTHER WEST WITH THE LOW
POSITION COMPARED TO OPERATIONAL RUN. CANADIAN GEM WAS ALSO
INDICATING A LOW TRACK CLOSER TO THE COAST AS WELL. THEREFORE WILL
KEEP A SLIGHT CHANCE POP FOR DOWNEAST AREAS TUESDAY NIGHT AND
WEDNESDAY. OTHERWISE...GENERALLY FAIR WEATHER EXPECTED FOR THE
LATTER PORTION OF THE WEEK.
&&

.AVIATION /07Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
NEAR TERM: VFR CONDITIONS ACROSS THE REGION TODAY. NORTHERN SITES
WILL LOWER TO MVFR THEN IFR IN SNOW TONIGHT. EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS
FOR TONIGHT FOR BOTH KBGR AND KBHB.

SHORT TERM: EXPECT IFR IN LIGHT SNOW SATURDAY KCAR/KPQI/KHUL AND
VFR/MVFR IN PERIODS OF LIGHT SNOW KBGR/KBHB/. EXPECT MAINLY VFR
SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY ALTHOUGH THERE WILL STILL BE PERIODS
OF MVFR POSSIBLE IN ANY LINGERING LIGHT SNOW OR SNOW SHOWERS. VFR
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY.
&

.MARINE...
NEAR TERM: EXPECT WINDS AND SEAS TO REMAIN BELOW SCA CRITERIA
TODAY AND TONIGHT.

SHORT TERM: WINDS/SEAS SHOULD REMAIN BELOW SCA LEVELS SATURDAY AND
SATURDAY NIGHT. WIND/SEAS MAY APPROACH OR EXCEED SCA CONDITIONS
