AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
850 AM EST THU DEC 27 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
STRONG LOW PRESSURE JUST OFF THE CENTRAL NEW JERSEY COAST EARLY
THIS MORNING WILL PUSH NORTHEAST INTO EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS LATER
TODAY...BEFORE HEADING INTO THE GULF OF MAINE TONIGHT. DRY BUT
BLUSTERY WEATHER CIRCULATES INTO THE REGION FRIDAY BEHIND THE
DEPARTING STORM. ANOTHER STORM MAY IMPACT SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
THIS WEEKEND WITH ACCUMULATING SNOW POSSIBLE. DRY BUT COLDER
WEATHER IS LIKELY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
845 AM UPDATE...
FORECAST GENERALLY ON TRACK WITH RAIN/SNOW LINE VICINITY OF ASH-
ORH-NW BAF LINE. ORH ITSELF CHANGED TO FZRN BUT COULD GO BACK AND
FORTH. AT 1345Z DRY SLOT WAS PUNCHING INTO NORTHERN CT. MAIN
CHANGE AT THIS TIME IS TO UPDATE COASTAL FLOOD STATEMENT. ADVISORY
STILL LOOKS REASONABLE BUT NUDGED SURGE AND SEAS UP SOME BASED ON
CURRENT TRENDS AND THE FACT STILL GETTING WIND GUSTS OUT OF THE E
ABOVE 45 KT AT CQX AND PYM. SEE TIDES SECTION FOR MORE INFO.

645 AM UPDATE...
DRY SLOT HAS REACHED CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS AND WILL PUSH INTO
THE REMAINDER OF THE S COAST OVER THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO. HEAVY
PRECIP MOVING ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN AREAS AT 11Z...WITH
PRECIP BACK TO SNOW AT WORCESTER WITH SOME MIXING REACHING INTO
NASHUA AND MANCHESTER NH.

FORECAST PRETTY MUCH ON TRACK...BUT UPDATED GRIDS TO BRING
CURRENT.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
BANDS OF MODERATE TO HEAVY PRECIP MOVING ACROSS THE REGION AT
09Z...BUT APPEARS THAT THE STEADIER PRECIP WILL START TAPERING OFF
AFTER SUNRISE. NOTING DRY SLOT MOVING TOWARD LONG ISLAND AND THE
SOUTHERN ISLANDS ON NE 88D RADAR MOSAIC LOOP. THE STEADIER PRECIP
WILL TAPER OFF FROM S-N FROM MID TO LATE THIS MORNING...LINGERING
ACROSS N MA/S NH INTO THE AFTERNOON.

PRECIP MAINLY IN THE FORM OF RAIN FROM LAWRENCE TO S OF WORCESTER
TO WESTFIELD SOUTH AND EAST...WITH BAND OF FREEZING RAIN FALLING
ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN WORCESTER COUNTY. SNOW CONTINUES TO
FALL ACROSS NW MA INTO S NH...MAINLY FROM AROUND ROUTE 2
NORTH...AS WELL AS WESTERN HAMPSHIRE COUNTY.

E-NE WINDS CRANKING ACROSS RI/SE MA UP TOWARD BOSTON THANKS TO
VERY STRONG PRESSURE FALLS AHEAD OF APPROACHING LOW. SEVERAL GUSTS
AT 60 MPH OR GREATER OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS REPORTED...AS
WELL AS A COUPLE OF DAMAGE REPORTS. HAVE UPDATED PUBLIC INFO
AND LOCAL STORM REPORT WITH LATEST SNOWFALL AND HIGH WIND REPORTS.
AS THE LOW MOVES ALONG THE S COAST AND EVENTUALLY INTO SE MA BY
MIDDAY...EXPECT STRONGEST WINDS TO SHIFT NE. HAVE UPDATED THE WIND
ADVISORIES/HIGH WIND WARNINGS TO END BY MIDDAY.

SHORT RANGE MODELS...ESPECIALLY THE NAM DNG 4 KM MODEL...APPEAR TO
BE HANDLING THE APPROACH OF THE DRY SLOT PRETTY WELL SO LEANED
TOWARD THIS. EXPECT STEADY PRECIP TO TAPER OFF FROM S-N...BUT LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE MAY LINGER THROUGH THE DAY. THE STRONG ONSHORE
WINDS WILL KEEP PUSHING MILDER AIR FURTHER INLAND...SO WILL SEE
MIXED PRECIP OR SNOW EVENTUALLY GO OVER TO RAIN EXCEPT FOR
PORTIONS OF S NH MAINLY THE HIGHER TERRAIN. EVEN THERE...THOUGH...
WILL PROBABLY SEE MIXED PRECIP. PRECIP WILL HANG ON MOST OF THE
DAY FROM CENTRAL MA NORTHWARD...THEN COLDER AIR ALOFT WILL WRAP BACK
IN AS WINDS BACK TO N-NW DURING THE AFTERNOON. THIS WILL CAUSE
THE PRECIP TO CHANGE BACK TO LIGHT SNOW. NOT EXPECT A LOT MORE
ACCUMULATION...BUT ANYTHING ON TOP OF WHAT HAS FALLEN COULD CAUSE
SOME TRAVEL CONCERNS FOR THE AFTERNOON/EVENING COMMUTE.

EXPECT WIDE RANGE OF TEMPS ACROSS THE REGION TODAY...WITH HIGHS
FROM THE MID-UPPER 30S ACROSS S CENTRAL/SW NH TO AROUND 50 ALONG
THE S COAST...CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM FRIDAY/...
TONIGHT...
AS THE LOW MOVES INTO THE GULF OF MAINE THIS EVENING...EXPECT
N-NW WINDS TO PICK UP AS TIGHT PRES GRADIENT USHERS IN COLDER AIR.
SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS WILL LINGER ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN
AREAS AND MAY EVEN MAKE IT DOWN TO THE COAST FOR A SHORT TIME.

WILL BE RATHER CHILLY TONIGHT...ESPECIALLY WITH GUSTY WINDS
DURING THE EVENING. EXPECT OVERNIGHT LOWS TO DROP BACK TO THE
UPPER TEENS AND 20S...EXCEPT THE LOWER-MID 30S ON THE OUTER CAPE
AND ISLANDS.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
*** A PLOWABLE SNOW POSSIBLE LATE SAT INTO EARLY SUN ***

FRIDAY...
DRY BUT BLUSTERY WEATHER AS GALE CENTER OVER THE MARITIMES KEEPS
PGRAD TIGHT OVER NEW ENGLAND. SEASONABLY COLD WITH HIGHS IN THE
30S.

SATURDAY...
THIS IS WHERE THE DRAMA BUILDS AS THE NEW 00Z ECMWF GOES BONKERS
WITH EXPLOSIVE CYCLOGENESIS SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND. AT 06Z SUN THE
ECMWF AS A 972 LOW OVER THE 40N/70W BENCHMARK AND FURTHER BOMBING
TO ABOUT 959 MB JUST SOUTH OF NOVA SCOTIA 18Z SUN! THIS RAPID
DEEPENING GENERATES QPF OFF THE CHARTS WITH STORM TOTAL OF 2+
/LIQUID/ OVER CAPE COD!

OBVIOUSLY WE DON/T WANT TO CHASE A SINGLE DETERMINISTIC MODEL RUN AT
THIS TIME RANGE /STILL 60+ HRS OUT/...BUT EVEN THE 00Z ENSEMBLES
GEFS & ECENS HAVE TRENDED STRONGER AND CLOSER TO THE COAST. ALTHOUGH
NOT NEARLY THE MAGNITUDE OF THE ECMWF. UKMET ALSO LENDS SOME SUPPORT
TO THE STRONGER EC. HOWEVER BIG BUST POTENTIAL HERE AS SHORT WAVE
ENERGY MAY NOT PHASE UNTIL EAST OF OUR LONGITUDE...THUS TOO LITTLE
TOO LATE IS ALSO A PLAUSIBLE OUTCOME.

HOWEVER GIVEN ENSEMBLES HAVE TRENDED MORE ROBUST WILL LEAN PARTIALLY
TOWARD THE STRONGER ECMWF AND AWAY FROM THE FLATTER/OPEN WAVE
SOLUTION OF THE GFS. DON/T WANT TO GO 100 PERCENT EURO FOR TWO
REASONS...1) TIME RANGE OF EVENT AND 2) WHILE ENSEMBLES HAVE
TRENDED STRONGER THE SPREAD REMAINS LARGE. SO FOR NOW WE WILL
TREND TOWARD THE ECMWF WITH LIKELY AND CATEGORICAL POPS LATE SAT
INTO EARLY SUN ALONG WITH SEVERAL INCHES OF SNOW. GREATEST RISK
FOR HEAVY SNOW APPEARS ACROSS EASTERN MA AND RI. AIRMASS COLD
ENOUGH FOR SNOW BUT COULD MIX WITH RAIN OVER CAPE COD AND THE
ISLANDS PENDING THE EXACT TRACK OF THE LOW AND ITS INTENSITY.

SUN...
VERY WINDY AND COLD ON THE BACK SIDE OF DEPARTING COASTAL/OCEAN
STORM. COULD BE SOME LINGERING OCEAN EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS OVER THE
CAPE BUT THE TREND WILL BE FOR DRIER WEATHER.

EARLY NEXT WEEK...
STILL SIGNS OF A PIECE OF ARCTIC AIR TO PLUNGE SOUTHWARD INTO NEW
ENGLAND. COULD BE SOME SNOW SHOWERS/SQUALLS ACCOMPANYING THE
ARCTIC FRONT AROUND NEW YEARS DAY. OTHERWISE MAINLY DRY WEATHER
PREVAILS...BUT COULD BE BITTERLY COLD TUE AND WED.

&&

.AVIATION /14Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
SHORT TERM OVERVIEW...MODERATE CONFIDENCE THROUGH THURSDAY.

TODAY...MAINLY MVFR-IFR CIGS AT 12Z. RANGE OF VSBYS...ANYWHERE
FROM VFR TO IFR...WITH LOWEST CONDITIONS ACROSS CENTRAL AND
NORTHERN MA INTO S NH. SHOULD SEE IMPROVING CONDITIONS BY AROUND
MIDDAY. LOWER CIGS/VSBYS MAY LINGER THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. WIND
E-NE GUSTS UP TO 50-55 KT ALONG COAST WILL DIMINISH BY AROUND
MIDDAY.

TONIGHT...TREND WILL BE FOR IMPROVEMENT TO VFR BY SUNRISE. GUSTY
NORTHWEST WINDS WITH GUSTS NEAR 30 KNOTS ESPECIALLY BOS AND CAPE
COD/ISLANDS. MODERATE-HIGH CONFIDENCE.

KBOS TAF...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAF. MODERATE CONFIDENCE ON LLWS
AND TIMING OF MIXED PRECIP.

KBDL TAF...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAF. MODERATE CONFIDENCE ON LLWS AND
TIMING OF MIX PRECIP TRANSITIONS.

OUTLOOK...FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY...

FRIDAY...VFR. GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS DIMINISHING BY EVENING.
HIGH CONFIDENCE.

SATURDAY-SUNDAY...LOWERING CIGS/VSBYS AS ANOTHER STORM PASSES
OFFSHORE.  CONDITIONS START VFR BUT LOWER TO MVFR BUT COULD LOWER TO
IFR IN SNOW ESPECIALLY EASTERN MA AND RI. LOW CONFIDENCE. BIG BUST
POTENTIAL RANGING FROM A LIGHT SNOW EVEN TO POSSIBLE NOREASTER.

MONDAY...
VFR. MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

&&

.MARINE...
MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE THROUGH THURSDAY.

TODAY...STORM FORCE WINDS CONTINUE ON THE SOUTHERN WATERS WITH
GUSTS AOA 50 KT REPORTED FROM SEVERAL BUOYS AS WELL AS NANTUCKET
AIRPORT. EXPECT STRONG WINDS THROUGH MIDDAY...THEN WILL SLOWLY
DIMINISH FROM SW-NE AS LOW PRES PASSES ACROSS THE WATERS. SEAS
WILL BUILD TO OVER 20 FT MAINLY ON THE EASTERN WATERS.

TONIGHT...NW WINDS GUSTING TO GALE FORCE ON THE OUTER WATERS WITH
THE COLDER AIR WORKING IN...WITH SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA WINDS ON THE
NEARSHORE WATERS. SEAS WILL REMAIN HIGH...AOA 15 FT ON THE OUTER
WATERS...BUT WILL SLOWLY SUBSIDE.

OUTLOOK...FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY...

FRIDAY...STRONG NORTHWEST WINDS EARLY THEN A DIMINISHING TREND.
LARGE SEAS ON THE OCEAN WATERS THEN SUBSIDING LATE. GOOD VSBY NEAR
SHORE WITH POSSIBLE SNOW SHOWERS OFFSHORE.

SATURDAY-SUNDAY... LOW CONFIDENCE AS FORECAST POSSIBILITIES RANGE
FROM A WEAK LOW TRACKING SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND OR A STRENGTHENING
GALE CENTER TRACKING SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND. LOW PROBABILITY OF THIS
BECOMING A DANGEROUS STORM TO MARINERS. STAY TUNED TO LATER FORECAST.

MONDAY... IMPROVING CONDITIONS AS POTENTIAL COASTAL/OCEAN STORM
MOVES EAST OF NEW ENGLAND.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
845 AM UPDATE...
HAVE CONTINUED WITH THE COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY FOR THE MA E COAST
FOR GENERALLY MINOR COASTAL FLOODING. DID NOTE...HOWEVER...THAT
THERE MAY BE POCKETS OF MODERATE COASTAL FLOODING BUT DO NOT THINK
WIDESPREAD ENOUGH TO WARRANT AN UPGRADE TO A WARNING. STORM SURGE
OF 2.5 TO 3 FT EXPECTED AT THE TIME OF HIGH TIDE WITH 20 FOOT
WAVES SEVERAL MILES OFFSHORE. ALSO EXPECTING SOME BEACH EROSION
ESPECIALLY N OF CAPE ANN WHERE WAVE ACTION EXPECTED TO BE GREATEST
AT THE TIME OF HIGH TIDE.

7 AM UPDATE...

EXTENDED THE FLOOD ADVISORY INTO RI AS SURGE VALUES APPROACH 3 FT
PUSHING STORM TIDES NEAR FLOOD STAGE. THIS COMBINED WITH LARGE
WAVES JUST OFFSHORE EXPECT SOME WAVES TO BREAK OVER SEAWALLS
RESULTING IN FLOOD PRONE SHORE ROADS TO BE PARTIALLY INUNDATED
WITH SEA WATER. HIGH TIDE OCCURRING AROUND 7 AM ALONG THE RI
COAST. THUS THE RISK OF COASTAL FLOODING EXIST UNTIL ABOUT 9 AM
FOR RI. PREVIOUS DISCUSSION BELOW.
===============================================================

A COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR MINOR COASTAL
FLOODING /SOME SHORE ROADS PARTIALLY FLOODED/ DURING THE MID MORNING
HIGH TIDE ALONG THE EASTERN MA COAST. WHILE ASTRONOMICAL TIDES ARE
NOT ESPECIALLY HIGH...STRONG ONSHORE WINDS WILL LIKELY BUILD UP A 2
FOOT SURGE. THIS WILL STILL RESULT IN STORM TIDES BELOW FLOOD STAGE
BUT BUILDING SEAS OFFSHORE OF 15-20 KT WILL LIKELY YIELD WAVES
BREAKING OVER SEAWALLS ONTO SHORE ROADS YIELDING MINOR COASTAL
FLOODING ESPECIALLY IN THE FLOOD-PRONE AREAS OF EASTERN MA
COASTLINE. THE GREATEST RISK FOR COASTAL FLOODING APPEARS TO BE FROM
BOSTON NORTHWARD TO CAPE ANN AND THE MERRIMACK RIVER...WHERE
STRONG WINDS WILL LINGER THROUGH HIGH TIDE.
