NWS Boston/Norton, MA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this areal flood warning went out at May 29, 7:39 PM EDT, 5 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 29, 7:39 PM EDT, 5 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
739 PM EDT TUE MAY 29 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE REGION TONIGHT AND
WEDNESDAY AS A COLD FRONT SLOWLY MOVES THROUGH. COOLER AND LESS
HUMID AIR WILL PUSH INTO NEW ENGLAND LATER THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. THE
REMNANTS OF TROPICAL STORM BERYL WILL PASS WELL SOUTH OF THE REGION
LATE THIS WEEK. ANOTHER WEATHER SYSTEM MAY BRING SCATTERED SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT INTO THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
CONTINUING TO MONITOR SEVERE CELLS ACROSS S NH. SVR TSTM WATCH IN
EFFECT UNTIL 02Z THERE. ALSO MONITORING CLOSELY FOR POSSIBILITY OF
DEVELOPING AND MIGRATING CELLS THAT MAY MOVE INTO W MA. PLEASE
MONITOR OUR WEBSITE /WEATHER.GOV/BOSTON/ FOR LATEST UPDATES AND
WARNINGS.

NOTING A SHARP TEMP SPREAD FROM E MA/S CENTRAL AND SE NH VS. THE FAR
WESTERN AREAS AS SEA BREEZE CONTINUES AT 21Z. FOG BANK ALSO HUGGING
THE COAST FROM NEAR BOSTON NORTHWARD. STILL EXPECT WINDS TO VEER TO
S-SW AND TEMPS WILL JUMP UP A BIT. TIMING IS IN QUESTION THOUGH.
MAIN ATTENTION IS THE CONVECTION MOVING OUT OF NY STATE AHEAD OF
APPROACHING FRONT. WITH HIGH PWATS OF 1.6 TO 1.8 INCHES ADVECTING
INTO THE REGION WITH THE FRONT AND ON THE S-SW WINDS...WILL LIKELY
SEE POCKETS OF HEAVY RAINFALL WITH ANY THUNDERSTORM OVERNIGHT.

EXPECT LIKELY POPS FOR MOST AREAS OVERNIGHT...THOUGH APPEARS THE
SEVERITY OF THE STORMS WILL DIMINISH AFTER DARK. WILL REMAIN RATHER
MILD AND HUMID WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS ONLY IN THE 60S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
WEDNESDAY...
SHORT RANGE MODELS SUGGEST THE FRONT WILL PUSH OFFSHORE DURING THE
MORNING WITH LEFTOVER SCT SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS. LOOKS
LIKE A SECOND FRONT WITH SHORT WAVE WILL CAUSE ANOTHER PULSE OF SCT
SHOWERS/TSTMS DURING LATE MORNING AND AFTERNOON WILL PUSH THROUGH
CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN AREAS...THOUGH THERE IS SOME TIMING
DISCREPANCIES AMONGST THE MODELS. EXPECT LIGHT WINDS MAINLY W-SW
THROUGH THE DAY WITH LIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT. COOLER AIR DOES NOT
WORK IN UNTIL SECOND TROUGH WORKS THROUGH. WILL STILL BE MILD BUT
NOT AS WARM AS TODAY. HIGHS WILL REACH THE UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S
EXCEPT UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S ON CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS.

&&

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

* COOLER AND LESS HUMID THU/FRI
* SHOWERS/STORMS POSSIBLE FRI NIGHT INTO SAT
* DRY WEATHER RETURNS EARLY NEXT WEEK

MODELS REMAIN IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON LARGER SCALE WEATHER PATTERN
WHICH FEATURES CLOSED LOW OVER MIDWEST HEADING THROUGH GREAT
LAKES. THIS MAINTAINS TROUGHING OVER NORTHEAST AS A NUMBER OF
SHORT WAVES ROTATE AROUND IT.

WED NIGHT...
LEFTOVER SHOWERS SHOULD MOVE OFFSHORE THROUGH MIDNIGHT...THOUGH SOME
MAY LINGER ALONG THE S COAST AFTER MIDNIGHT. DRIER AIR STARTS TO
WORK INTO S NH/N MA.

THU AND FRI...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER NEW ENGLAND BRINGING SOMEWHAT COOLER AND
LESS HUMID AIRMASS. UPPER RIDGE REMAINS IN PLACE WHICH SHOULD KEEP
US DRY INTO FRI EVENING...ALTHOUGH WE SHOULD SEE SOME INCREASE IN
CLOUDS BY END OF DAY.

SAT AND SUN...
LOW PRESSURE LIFTING THROUGH GREAT LAKES WILL PUSH A FRONTAL
SYSTEM THROUGH REGION. LATEST HPC GUIDANCE WHICH IS NOT FAR FROM
12Z GFS BRINGS TRIPLE POINT THROUGH WESTERN NEW ENGLAND MEANING WE
SHOULD SPEND SOME TIME IN WARM SECTOR...ALTHOUGH S/SE FLOW MAY
LIMIT AMOUNT OF INSTABILITY. COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO SWING
THROUGH SAT AFTERNOON AND EVENING...THOUGH WITH UPPER LOW HANGING
BACK TO OUR W CLEARING BEHIND FRONT SHOULD BE SLOW. MAY SEE MORE
IN WAY OF CLOUDINESS SUN THAN CURRENTLY EXPECTED GIVEN PRESENCE OF
COLD POOL ALOFT.

MON AND TUE...
LARGER DIFFERENCES APPEAR ON MODELS SO TRENDED FORECAST MORE
TOWARD HPC GUIDANCE...WHICH TAKES UPPER LOW OFFSHORE AND ALLOWS
HIGH PRESSURE TO BUILDS INTO REGION.

&&

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

MODERATE CONFIDENCE IN TAFS. IFR/LIFR CIGS BEGINNING TO SPREAD

CONDITIONS. TIMING OF ONSET OF LOWER CIGS/VSBYS MAY BE A FEW
HOURS TOO FAST.
