AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
204 PM EDT TUE JUL 24 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL BRING SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...SOME
LOCALLY STRONG TO SEVERE TO THE REGION TODAY. HIGH PRESSURE BRINGS A
RETURN TO DRY WEATHER FOR WEDNESDAY. A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL THEN
STALL ACROSS THE REGION LATE THIS WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND...BRINGING
ROUNDS OF SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. CONDITIONS LOOK TO
GRADUALLY IMPROVE EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 8 PM THIS EVENING/...

2 PM UPDATE...

*** A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS LIKELY THIS AFTERNOON ***

DESPITE COLD FRONT/WIND SHIFT ALREADY INTO SOUTHEAST
MA...CONVECTION FIRING IN THE POST FRONTAL AIRMASS IN RESPONSE TO
STRONG FORCING FROM APPROACHING S/WV TROUGH. THUS LIMITED FRONTAL
CONVERGENCE IS BEING COMPENSATED BY STRONG MID LEVEL FORCING.

FRAGMENTED LINE OF STORMS FROM COASTAL NH SOUTHWEST INTO SOUTHERN
NH/VT AND NORTHWEST MA AT 2 PM. THIS LINE IS MOVING INTO A
FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR STORM INTENSIFICATION WITH ML CAPES UP
TO 2000 J/KG AND MID LVL LAPSE RATES AROUND 6C/KM. DEEP LAYER
SHEAR IS MARGINAL AT 25 KT BUT THIS WILL INCREASE LATER TODAY.
THIS WILL LIKELY BE COMPENSATED BY STRONG MID LEVEL FORCING FOR
ASCENT BY APPROACHING S/WV AND ATTENDING +100KT UPPER LEVEL JET
WITH LFQ OVER THE AREA TOWARD 00Z. THEREFORE EXPECTING THIS LINE
TO BECOME BETTER ORGANIZED AND INTENSIFY AS IT SLIDES SOUTH INTO
MA/CT AND RI. AS A RESULT A SVR TSTM WTCH BOX IN EFFECT TIL 8 PM.

TSTM HAZARDS WILL BE STRONG TO DAMAGING WINDS/LARGE HAIL AND VERY
HEAVY DOWNPOURS. THESE STORMS SHOULD EXIT INTERIOR SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND BY 20-21Z BUT MAY LINGER OVER SOUTHEAST MA UNTIL 8 PM AND
POSSIBLY 11 PM OVER CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /8 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM WEDNESDAY/...
ANY LEFT OVER SCATTERED SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD EXIT THE
SOUTHEAST NEW ENGLAND COAST BY MID EVENING.   OTHERWISE...MUCH DRIER
AND COOLER AIR WILL BE USHERED IN BEHIND THE COLD FRONT.  SKIES WILL
BECOME MOSTLY CLEAR AS OVERNIGHT LOWS RANGE FROM THE LOWER TO MIDDLE
50S ACROSS SOUTHWEST NH/WESTERN MA...TO THE UPPER 50S AND LOWER 60S
ACROSS MOST OTHER LOCATIONS.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
MODEL DISCUSSION AND PREFERENCES...
SOLUTIONS AMONGST THE MEDIUM RANGE MODEL SUITE WIDEN AS TIME GOES
ON...ESPECIALLY WITH THE CHANGING UPPER LEVEL PATTERN ACROSS THE
NORTHEASTERN U.S. LATE THIS WEEK. HOWEVER...APPEARS THAT THE GENERAL
SIGNAL CONTINUES TO SHOW AN UNSETTLED PATTERN SETTING UP ACROSS THE
REGION. AS THE UPPER TROUGH OVER NEW ENGLAND SHIFTS OFFSHORE...A
MAINLY BROAD ZONAL FLOW TAKES OVER. HOWEVER...AT THE SURFACE...A
WARM FRONT TRIES TO WORK N. MODELS HAVING DIFFICULTY POSITIONING
THIS FRONT. BIG QUESTION WILL BE WHERE THIS FRONT DOES SET
UP...ALONG WITH ITS ISENTROPIC LIFT AND INSTABILITY. ONCE IT DOES
MOVE IN...IT BECOMES PARALLEL WITH THE UPPER FLOW...SO WILL SEE
SEVERAL DAYS OF OFF AND ON UNSETTLED WEATHER. MODELS ALSO SIGNALING
WEAK WAVES MOVING ALONG THIS FRONT...SO MAY SEE ROUNDS OF SCT
SHOWERS/TSTMS THROUGH AT LEAST SATURDAY AND POSSIBLY INTO SUNDAY.
SPECIFIC TIMING OF THESE WAVES IS UNCERTAIN. DOES LOOK LIKE THE
FRONT FINALLY STARTS TO SHIFT OFFSHORE AS SHORT WAVE DEVELOPS IN THE
UPPER FLOW LATE THIS WEEKEND...SO MAY START TO SEE IMPROVING
CONDITIONS EARLY NEXT WEEK. DO SUSPECT THE TIMING...THOUGH...SO
CONFIDENCE IS LOW DURING THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST.

DETAILS...

WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT...
HIGH PRES RIDGE BUILDS ACROSS THE REGION DURING THE DAY WITH LIGHT
WIND FLOW IN PLACE. RATHER GOOD MIXING IN PLACE WITH DRY NW FLOW SO
MAY SEE SOME GUSTY WINDS DURING THE AFTERNOON...THOUGH WILL BE SHORT
LIVED. EXPECT HIGHS MAINLY IN THE LOWER-MID 80S...THOUGH A BIT
COOLER ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST AS WELL AS THE HIGHER TERRAIN
INLAND. WILL START TO SEE MID AND UPPER LEVEL CLOUDS INCREASE WED
NIGHT AS WARM FRONT STARTS TO APPROACH AND RIDGE MOVES OFFSHORE.

THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...
AS MENTIONED ABOVE...EXPECT EXTENDED PERIOD OF UNSETTLED WEATHER
DURING THIS TIME FRAME. WARM FRONT APPROACHES...THEN SETS UP SHOP
ACROSS THE REGION. THE LOCATION WHERE THIS HAPPENS WILL BE ALL
IMPORTANT...AS THIS WILL DICTATE THE AMOUNT OF MOISTURE...LIFT AND
INSTABILITY THAT WILL WORK IN. HAVE NOTED A PRETTY DECENT LOW LEVEL
S-SW JET WORKS IN CLOSE TO OR BEHIND THIS FRONT DURING THURSDAY...SO
MAY SEE GUSTY WINDS DURING THE AFTERNOON/EVENING. DOES LOOK LIKE THE
FIRST ROUND OF SCT SHOWERS/TSTMS WILL OCCUR FROM THU AFTERNOON INTO
FRIDAY AS A SHORT WAVE MOVES ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES. SPC HAS PLACED
THE REGION IN A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE STORMS THU INTO EARLY FRI. AT
THIS POINT...LOOKS LIKE BEST CHANCE OF CONVECTION WILL BE AWAY FROM
THE E COAST FOR THU AFTERNOON INTO EARLY FRI MORNING. AS THIS JET
MOVES E...MOST OF THE INSTABILITY MOVES WITH IT. HOWEVER...ONE OR
TWO MORE WAVES MOVE ALONG THE STALLED FRONT SO WILL SEE ROUNDS OF
SCT SHOWERS/TSTMS THROUGH SATURDAY. HAVE CONTINUED MENTION OF
SHOWERS/TSTMS IN FORECAST INTO SATURDAY NIGHT.  ANOTHER CONCERN WILL
BE POSSIBLE TRAINING OF SHOWERS AND STORMS ALONG WITH HIGH PW/S /ON
ORDER OF 2-2.25 INCHES ESPECIALLY THU-FRI/ MAY PRODUCE FLOODING OR
FLASH FLOODING AT ANY POINT.

DOES LOOK LIKE THE UPPER PATTERN CHANGES AGAIN LATE THIS WEEKEND AS
ANOTHER SHORT WAVE MOVES OUT OF THE LAKES...HELPING PUSH THE FRONT N
OF THE REGION. MOST INSTABILITY ALSO MOVES OUT. MAY STILL SEE SCT
SHOWERS ON SUNDAY AS FINAL LOW KICKS OFFSHORE.

MONDAY...
LOOKS LIKE HIGH PRES WILL BUILD ACROSS BETWEEN SYSTEMS...WITH DRIER
NW FLOW IN PLACE. TIMING IS STILL IN QUESTION...THOUGH.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...
LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT
MODERATE...30 PERCENT TO 60 PERCENT
HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT

OVERVIEW...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE.
LINE OF STRONG TO SEVERE TSTMS WILL MOVE ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND/S AIRSPACE THIS AFTERNOON...EXITING BY 21Z AND 00Z FOR RI
AND SOUTHEAST MA...POSSIBLY LINGERING TIL 03Z CAPE COD AND THE
ISLANDS. A FEW STORMS WILL CONTAIN STRONG WINDS/LARGE HAIL AND
HEAVY DOWNPOURS. OTHERWISE VFR CONDITIONS TONIGHT WITH INCREASING
NNW WINDS PROVIDING GOOD VSBYS. VFR AGAIN WED WITH A DIMINISHING
WIND.

KBOS TAF...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE.
VFR WITH A 1-3 HR WINDOW OF SCT TSTMS AND BRIEF MVFR. A FEW STRONG
STORMS ARE LIKELY WITH IMPROVEMENT 21Z-00Z. VFR TONIGHT AND WED
WITH A GUSTY NNW.

KBDL TAF...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE.
VFR THROUGH WED WITH A MODERATE PROBABILITY OF A STRONG THUNDERSTORM
UNTIL 21Z...THEN IMPROVING.

OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...

THURSDAY-SATURDAY...
MODERATE CONFIDENCE. PREVAILING VFR. SCT SHRA/TSRA WITH PSBL
MVFR-IFR IMPACTS. TSRA MAY BE SEVERE THU AFTERNOON INTO EARLY FRI
MORNING. LOW CONFIDENCE ON TIMING BEYOND FRI MORNING.

&&

.MARINE...
MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE THROUGH TONIGHT. WILL CONTINUE SCA FOR
HAZARDOUS SEAS AROUND 5 FEET ACROSS THE OUTER-WATERS INTO THE MID
AFTERNOON.  THESE SEAS SHOULD DIMINISH FOR A TIME LATE THIS
AFTERNOON/EVENING...BUT WILL LIKELY INCREASE AGAIN TO SCA THRESHOLDS
LATE TONIGHT BEHIND THE COLD FRONT.  LATER SHIFTS WILL LIKELY NEED
TO REISSUE SCA AND WILL PROBABLY ALSO SEE A PERIOD OF NORTH TO
NORTHWEST WIND GUSTS OF 20 TO 25 KNOTS DEVELOP TOWARD DAYBREAK
WEDNESDAY.

THE BIGGEST CONCERN FOR MARINERS WILL BE A FEW STRONG
THUNDERSTORMS.  PERHAPS A FEW EARLY THIS MORNING AND A BETTER CHANCE
THIS AFTERNOON INTO THE EARLY TO MID EVENING HOURS.

OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...

WEDNESDAY...
MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE. NW WINDS GUSTING TO AROUND 20 KTS OVER
THE WATERS DURING THE MORNING...THEN DIMINISHING. SEAS REMAIN BELOW
SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA.

THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...
MODERATE CONFIDENCE. S-SW WINDS ACROSS MOST OF THE WATERS THU-THU
NIGHT WITH GUSTS UP TO 20 KT. WITH GUSTY WINDS...SEAS MAY APPROACH 5
FT ON THE SOUTHERN OUTER WATERS INTO FRIDAY. FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL
SETTLE ACROSS THE WATERS...WITH WINDS GENERALLY 15 KT OR LESS. WILL
SEE PERIODS OF SHOWERS/TSTMS THROUGH THIS TIMEFRAME...BEST CHANCE
FROM THU AFTERNOON INTO EARLY FRI MORNING. MAY SEE SQUALLY
CONDITIONS AND FREQUENT LTNG IN ANY STORMS THU-FRI.
