AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CARIBOU ME
515 PM EST TUE JAN 18 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WILL CROSS THE GULF OF MAINE TONIGHT...THEN EXIT
THROUGH THE MARITIMES WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD EAST
THURSDAY.
&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
INTENSIFYING LOW PRESSURE WILL TRACK ACROSS THE GULF OF MAINE
TOWARD SOUTHERN NOVA SCOTIA TONIGHT...THEN TRACK TOWARD NEWFOUNDLAND
WEDNESDAY. MODELS INDICATE UPPER LEVEL JET SUPPORT AND ISENTROPIC
LIFT SUPPORTING PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH THE EARLY
MORNING HOURS WITH THE HEAVIEST PRECIPITATION EXPECTED DOWNEAST.
PRECIPITATION WILL THEN CONTINUE ACROSS THE REGION OVERNIGHT.
BASED ON CRITICAL THICKNESSES...EXPECT PRECIPITATION TO REMAIN
MOSTLY SNOW ACROSS NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA TONIGHT.
ACROSS CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA EXPECT SNOW EARLY
TONIGHT TO MIX WITH SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN OVERNIGHT WITH WARMER
AIR ALOFT MOVING NORTH ACROSS THE REGION. ACROSS INTERIOR DOWNEAST
AREAS A MIXTURE OF SNOW...SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN WILL TRANSITION
TO RAIN. ALONG THE DOWNEAST COAST...WHERE LOW LEVEL WARM AIR HAS
ALREADY MOVED ONSHORE...EXPECT A MIXTURE OF SNOW AND RAIN THIS
EVENING TO TRANSITION TO ALL RAIN. A CHANCE OF FREEZING RAIN COULD
OCCUR IN SPOTS ALONG THE DOWNEAST COAST THIS EVENING WHERE POCKETS OF
COLD AIR HAVE REMAINED TRAPPED OR WHERE GROUND TEMPERATURES REMAIN
AROUND FREEZING AFTER THE COLD READINGS OF THIS MORNING. THE WARM
AIR SHOULD EVENTUALLY ERODE THE COLD AIR DAMMED UP ACROSS INTERIOR
DOWNEAST AREAS...ALLOWING PRECIPITATION THERE TO EVENTUALLY
TRANSITION TO MOSTLY RAIN. ICE ACCUMULATIONS ACROSS INTERIOR
DOWNEAST AREAS WILL BE DEPENDENT ON HOW QUICKLY THE LOW LEVEL COLD
AIR IS ERODED. THE LOW LEVEL COLD AIR WILL BE MOST PERSISTENT
ACROSS SOUTHERN PENOBSCOT COUNTY. PRECIPITATION WILL TAPER TO SNOW
SHOWERS LATER WEDNESDAY IN THE WAKE OF THE LOW...WITH COLDER AIR
BEING DRAWN BACK ACROSS THE REGION. STORM TOTAL SNOW ACCUMULATIONS
THROUGH WEDNESDAY ARE GENERALLY EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM 4 TO 7
INCHES ACROSS CENTRAL/NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST
AREA...WITH 3 TO 5 INCHES ACROSS INTERIOR DOWNEAST AREAS...WITH 1
TO 2 INCHES ALONG THE DOWNEAST COAST. LOW TEMPERATURES WILL OCCUR
EARLY TONIGHT...THEN REMAIN STEADY OR SLOWLY RISE THROUGH THE
NIGHT. HIGH TEMPERATURES WEDNESDAY WILL RANGE FROM THE MID 20S
NORTH...TO THE MID TO UPPER 30S DOWNEAST.
&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A MINOR UPPER TROF WILL PASS THROUGH THE AREA WEDS NGT WITH SOME
LIGHT SNOW SHOWER ACTIVITY AND WILL USHER IN COLDER TEMPS FOR
THURS. EXPECT THIS IMPULSE WILL BE SUFFICIENT TO DROP UP TO AN
INCH DURING ITS PASSAGE WEDS NGT...BASED ON A GENEROUS SNOW RATIO.
LOWS WILL RANGE FROM NEAR ZERO IN THE ALLAGASH TO MID TEENS ALONG
THE COAST. RESIDUAL CLOUDS AND A BRISK NORTH WIND DURING THE
MORNING WILL DIMINISH AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS LATER IN THE DAY.
EXPECT HIGHS IN THE LOW-MID TEENS NORTH AND LOWER 20S DOWN EAST.
THE HIGH WILL BRING CLEARING SKIES AND THE PROSPECT FOR ANOTHER
SUBZERO NIGHT FOR MUCH OF THE CWA. THE KEY WILL BE WHETHER ANY
OVERRUNING CIRRUS CAPS COOLING AND THE SPEED OF SFC HIGH
RETREATING TO THE NORTH IN ADVANCE OF LOW PRESSURE. EXPECT CLOUD
COVER TO THICKEN MORE DOWN EAST...LEADING TO A FORECAST FOR LOWS
IN THE SINGLE DIGITS. IN THE NORTH...CLEAR SKIES SHOULD PREVAIL
MUCH FURTHER THROUGH THE NIGHT AND WILL GO WITH READINGS OF -10 TO
-20 IN THE ALLAGASH AND READINGS IN THE ZERO TO -10 RANGE ALONG
THE NORTHEAST BORDER.

WITH REGARD TO THE APPROACHING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM ON
FRIDAY...NWP ONCE AGAIN OFFERS A WIDE RANGE OF LOW TRACKS. OUR
FORECAST AS WELL AS THE MODEL CONSENSUS FORECASTS A TRACK TOWARDS
SOUTHERN NOVA SCOTIA ONCE AGAIN. THE STORM IS EXPECTED TO SWEEP
THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA QUICKLY AND TEMPERATURES SHOULD SUPPORT
SNOW ALL THE WAY TO THE COAST...EVEN WITH A MORE WESTERLY TRACK.
INDICATIONS ARE THAT SNOW WILL START ALONG THE COAST EARLY IN THE
MORNING AS A COASTAL FRONT SETS UP. HAVE BROUGHT LIKELY POPS
NORTHWARD TOWARDS PQI BY AFTERNOON. THE SPEED AND TRACK OF THE
STORM WOULD CURRENTLY SUGGEST NO WORSE THAN ADVISORY LEVEL
SNOWFALL OF LESS THAN SEVEN INCHES IN 12 HOURS ANYWHERE IN THE CWA
EXCEPT PERHAPS ALONG THE DOWN EAST COAST. HOWEVER...THIS STORM IS
JUST NOW HITTING THE WEST COAST AND IT IS PREMATURE TO RULE OUT A
MORE WESTERN...AND SNOWY...TRACK INTO THE BAY OF FUNDY.
&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
MEDIUM RANGE MODELS IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH LOW PRESSURE
QUICKLY MOVING EAST OF NOVA SCOTIA FRIDAY NIGHT. VERY COLD ARCTIC
AIR THAN BUILDS ACROSS THE REGION SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY WITH
TEMPERATURES WELL BELOW NORMAL. GMOS MIN TEMPERATURES APPEARED TO
BE TOO COLD SO BLENDED THEM WITH THE GFS BUT STILL EXPECT LOWS 15
TO 20 BELOW ACROSS THE NORTH WITH BELOW ZERO READINGS ALL THE WAY
TO THE COAST.
&&

.AVIATION /20Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
NEAR TERM: IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE REGION
TONIGHT THROUGH EARLY WEDNESDAY...WITH IFR/MVFR CONDITIONS
PERSISTING LATER WEDNESDAY.

SHORT TERM: IFR IN SNOW SHOWERS WEDS NGT...ESPECIALLY FOR BHB AND
BGR. OTHERWISE MVFR AND CONTINUING MVFR NORTH OF HUL FOR THURS BUT
VFR FOR BGR AND BHB. VFR EVERYWHERE THURS NIGHT. SNOW IS LIKELY TO
