AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CARIBOU ME
1207 PM EST WED DEC 7 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A STATIONARY FRONT WILL REMAIN OVER THE GULF OF MAINE TODAY. LOW
PRESSURE WILL DEVELOP OFF THE MID ATLANTIC COAST TODAY THEN MOVE
THROUGH THE GULF OF MAINE TONIGHT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
UPDATE...NO MAJOR CHANGES NEEDED. SLIGHT ADJUSTMENTS MADE TO
TEMPS AND WEATHER TO MATCH CURRENT TRENDS.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
A FRONTAL SYSTEM IS NOW STATIONARY ACROSS THE GULF OF MAINE SO
WILL KEEP POPS TODAY HIGHEST OVER THE SOUTH. LATER TODAY EXPECT
LOW PRESSURE TO DEVELOP ALONG THIS FRONT ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC
REGION. THE DEVELOPING LOW WILL THEN INTENSIFY TONIGHT AND MOVE
NORTHEAST TO NEAR EASTERN LONG ISLAND AFTER MIDNIGHT. EXPECT THE
CENTER TO MOVE TO THE BAY OF FUNDY BY 1200Z THURSDAY. OPERATIONAL
GFS AND GFS ENSEMBLE MEMBERS ALONG WITH NAM AND ECMWF ARE ALL IN
CLOSE AGREEMENT ON THE TRACK OF THIS SYSTEM. COLD AIR SUPPLY
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA IS LIMITED SO PRIMARY CHALLENGE WILL BE
PRECIPITATION TYPE. HAVE INITIALIZED SNOW AMOUNT WITH OFFICE SNOW
FROM THICKNESS TOOL RUN ON GFS WHICH PLACES MOST SNOW ACROSS THE
NORTHWEST. FOR POPS HAVE BLENDED THE GFS40....NAM12 AND SREF.
TEMPERATURE AND DEW POINT GENERATED WITH NAM12. USED A BLEND OF
NAM12 AND GFS40 FOR QPF.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A CHALLENGING FORECAST CONTINUES W/ALL THE SHORT RANGE GUIDANCE
INCLUDING THE GFS AND MANY OF ITS ENSEMBLE MEMBERS ON BRINGING
THE LOW THROUGH THE BAY OF FUNDY. THIS TRACK HISTORICALLY SPEAKING
IS A RINGER FOR HEAVY SNOWFALL ACROSS THE REGION ESPECIALLY
NORTHERN MAINE. THE MAIN INGREDIENT LACKING TO THIS SETUP IS THE
COLD AIR NEEDED TO BE SETUP. IT LOOKS LIKE THERE IS GOING TO BE A
SHARP CUTOFF FROM RAIN TO SNOW FROM SOUTH TO NORTH.

THEREFORE, USING A BLEND OF THE GFS AND THE NAM12 TEMPERATURES,
THE RAIN-SNOW LINE LOOKS TO ALIGN FROM JUST SOUTH OF CARIBOU BACK
THROUGH MILLINOCKET DOWN INTO GREENVILLE. NORTH OF THIS LINE ALL
SNOW AND POSSIBLY HEAVY FOR A 3 HR WINDOW W/GOOD FRONTOGENETICAL
FORCING FROM 1000-700MBS ALONG W/STRONG EPV UP THROUGH 400MBS
LEADING TO SOME SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL AMOUNTS. SOUTH OF THE LINE,
ALL RAIN THROUGH EARLY THURSDAY MORNING. AFTER 7 AM...COLDER AIR
FILTERS IN BEHIND THE SYSTEM AS THE LOW INTENSIFIES MOVING INTO
THE MARITIMES. THIS WILL CHANGE ANY RAIN OVER TO A BRIEF PERIOD OF
SNOW BEFORE ENDING BY 17-18Z TIMEFRAME W/MINOR SNOW ACCUMULATIONS.
COLLABORATED W/GYX AND HPC ON SNOWFALL AMOUNTS. CONFIDENCE IS HIGH
ENOUGH TO GO W/A WINTER STORM WATCH FOR MEZ001-004 LATE TONIGHT
THROUGH MIDDAY THURSDAY. HIGHEST SNOWFALL AMOUNTS WILL BE NORTH
AND WEST OF CARIBOU-PRESQUE ISLE.

ANOTHER CONCERN WILL BE WIND GUSTS ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE SYSTEM.
BUFKIT MOMENTUM TRANSFER FROM BOTH THE NAM AND GFS INDICATES 40+KT
WINDS MIXING DOWN TO THE SFC FOR A 6 HRS WINDOW ON THURSDAY ACROSS
THE REGION. THIS WILL ADD TO IMPACT IN THE WATCH AREA. DAYCREW MAY
NEED TO ASSESS POSSIBLE WIND ADVISORIES FOR THURSDAY. WINDS WILL
SETTLE DOWN LATER IN THE DAY W/RAPID CLEARING BY THURSDAY NIGHT
ALLOWING FOR MUCH COLDER TEMPERATURES ESPECIALLY WHERE THERE IS
FRESH SNOW COVER. DAYCREW/S OVERNIGHT LOWS FOR THURSDAY NIGHT
LOOKED GOOD W/A SLIGHT ADJUSTMENT DOWNWARD ACROSS THE NORTH AND
WEST.

A MUCH DRIER DAY STARTING OUT ON FRIDAY AND THE POTENTIAL IS THERE
FOR SOME LIGHT SNOW OR SNOW SHOWERS BY AFTERNOON AS A WEAK SYSTEM
MOVES ACROSS THE REGION. THE GFS AND ECMWF AS WELL AS THE NAM
POINT TO STRONG FORCING IN THE MID LEVELS W/DEEP MOISTURE THROUGH
700MBS. THE COLUMN WILL BE COLD ENOUGH TO SUPPORT ALL SNOW ALL THE
WAY TO THE COAST. THEREFORE, KEPT CHANCE POPS FOR LATE FRIDAY AND
USED SNOW SHOWERS FOR THE WX ELEMENT. DAYCREW CAN ASSESS THIS
FURTHER AND ADJUST AS NEEDED.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
UNSETTLED PATTERN INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK W/A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES
MOVING THROUGH THE REGION. INITIALIZED THE GRIDS W/GMOS AND THEN
ADJUSTED AS NEEDED.

WEAK LOW PRES MOVES ACROSS THE REGION FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY
W/ON AND OFF LIGHT SNOW. ACCUMULATIONS AT BEST OF 1-2 INCHES AND
MAINLY ACROSS THE NORTHERN 1/2 OF THE CWA. ANOTHER DISTURBANCE IS
SHOWN BY BOTH THE ECMWF AND GFS TO MOVE ACROSS NORTHERN AND
WESTERN AREAS ON SUNDAY DELIVERING ANOTHER SHOT OF SNOW SHOWERS
W/SOME LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS. THE REST OF THE CWA WILL BE DRY AND
HAVE NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

A NEAR ZONAL FLOW IS SHOWN TO SETUP ACROSS THE REGION LATER
SUNDAY INTO MONDAY W/A SLIGHT MODERATION IN THE AIRMASS. GMOS
TEMPERATURES WERE ACCEPTED W/SLIGHT ADJUSTMENTS ON THE MINS.
DROPPED BACK THE GMOS POPS FROM CHC TO SLIGHT CHC FROM SUNDAY
NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY W/A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY SLIDING ACROSS THE
NORTHERN TIER OF THE CWA.

&&

.AVIATION /17Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
NEAR TERM: IFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED NEXT 24 HOURS.

SHORT TERM: IFR/LIFR EARLY THURSDAY AND THEN IMPROVEMENTS TO MVFR
AND EVENTUALLY VFR BY LATER THURSDAY AFTERNOON INTO THURSDAY
NIGHT. WINDS WILL BE AN ISSUE EARLY THURSDAY W/GUSTS HITTING 40MPH.
A RETURN TO MVFR AND PERHAPS IFR CAN BE EXPECTED ACROSS THE
NORTHERN TAF SITES LATER FRIDAY INTO EARLY SATURDAY AS ANOTHER
DISTURBANCE AFFECTS THE REGION. AS IT LOOKS RIGHT NOW, KBGR AND
KBHB WILL SEE VFR FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
NEAR TERM: HAVE USED A BLEND OF THE NAM12 AND GFS40 FOR WIND
GRIDS. DUE TO TRACK OF LOW STRONGEST WINDS SHOULD NOT OCCUR UNTIL
THE LOW CENTER MOVES TO NORTHEAST OF THE WATERS AFTER THIS TIME
PERIOD. FOR WAVES: SOUTHERLY FETCH AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM WILL BE
WELL TO EAST OF LOW AND LIMITED IN DURATION SO PRIMARY WAVE FIELD
EXPECTED IN OFF-SHORE FLOW BEHIND SYSTEM. WILL USE THE SWAN/NAM
FOR ALL WAVE GRIDS.

SHORT TERM: FOLLOWED SUIT W/THE NEAR TERM USING A BLEND OF THE
NAM12 AND GFS FOR THE WINDS AND ADJUSTED WIND GUSTS UP USING THE
MOMENTUM TRANSFER OFF OF BUFKIT WHICH SHOWED GUSTS HITTING 40 KTS
INTO THURSDAY AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL COME DOWN THURSDAY NIGHT ON
INTO FRIDAY. WAVE HEIGHTS WERE ADJUSTED FOR THURSDAY INITIALIZING
W/THE SWAN GUIDANCE WHICH BRINGS WAVE HEIGHTS TO 10+ FT BY EARLY
AFTERNOON. WINDS AND SEAS WILL DROP OFF THURSDAY NIGHT AND
CONTINUE THAT TREND INTO THE WEEKEND. LEANED CLOSER TO WNAWAVE IN
THIS TIMEFRAME FOR THE WAVE HEIGHTS AND USED THE GMOS WINDS.
