AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
145 PM EDT SUN JUN 3 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A PERIOD OF DRY WEATHER ALONG WITH SOME SUNSHINE IS EXPECTED MUCH OF
TODAY BEFORE SHOWERS REDEVELOP LATE IN THE DAY FROM WEST TO EAST...
AS LOW PRESSURE FROM THE GREAT LAKES MERGES WITH ANOTHER LOW EAST OF
NEW ENGLAND. RAIN WILL BECOME WIDESPREAD MON INTO TUE ALONG WITH
GUSTY NORTHEAST WINDS AND COOL TEMPERATURES...AS LOW PRESSURE
INTENSIFIES INTO A GALE CENTER EAST OF NEW ENGLAND. RAIN WILL BECOME
MORE SHOWERY AND DIURNAL MID TO LATE NEXT WEEK ALONG WITH
TEMPERATURES MODERATING SOMEWHAT AS ONSHORE WINDS DISSIPATE.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
1 PM UPDATE...

LAPS MASS FIELDS SUGGEST A WEAK AREA OF CONVERGENCE FROM ATTENDANT
SFC LOW OFFSHORE. THE BOUNDARY GENERALLY RESTS FROM DDH SE TO
SFZ...AND ALREADY RADAR SHOWS ECHOS...AND VIS SAT IMG SHOW
ENHANCED CU FIELD DEVELOPING GENERALLY ALONG THAT LINE. MESO-
MODELS SUGGEST THIS MAY BE THE AREA TO WATCH FOR FURTHER -SHRA AND
LOW TOPPED CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON...AS IT HAS ALSO BEEN THE
AREA MOST IN THE SUN THROUGH THE DAY. HAVE TAPERED POPS TOWARD
THIS SUGGESTION THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
WITH THE UPR LVL LOW BEGINNING TO SHUNT SEWD...COOLER AND MORE MOIST
AIR WILL BE DRAWN TOWARDS THE RGN. INITIALLY SUBSIDENCE IN WAKE OF
YESTERDAYS WEATHER SHOULD PROVIDE FOR CLEARING ALLOWING FOR A
REBOUND IN SFC TEMPS. SUBSEQUENTLY...LOW-LVLS SHOULD BECOME
WELL-MIXED BENEATH THE INVADING COOLER MOIST ADIABATIC MID-LVL
PROFILE. THEREFORE...DIURNALLY DRIVEN SHOWERY WX SHOULD ERUPT ACROSS
THE NERN INTERIOR GRADUALLY INCREASING IN AERIAL COVERAGE AND
ADVECTING EWD TOWARDS THE WRN FCST AREA LATE /ANTICIPATING AN AREA
OF SUBSIDENCE TO PREVAIL BETWEEN YESTERDAYS SYSTEM AND THE ONCOMING
UPR LVL LOW WHICH SHOULD KEEP THE ERN FCST AREA DRY/. ON A FINAL
NOTE...MEAGER ELEVATED INSTABILITY PRESENTS THE POSSIBILITY OF
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WITH SHOWERY WX LATE...BUT IT APPEARS THE
BEST LIFT IS BELOW BETTER ICE GROWTH RGNS. CONFIDENCE IS LOW SO WILL
FORGO MENTIONING THUNDER.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
SYNOPTIC SITUATION...
WITH A STRONG BLOCKING PATTERN ACROSS THE N ATLANTIC /HIGHLIGHTED
BY A VERY ANOMALOUSLY NEGATIVE NAO PATTERN/ THE DEEP CLOSED LOW
ACROSS THE NORTHERN GRT LKS IS SHUNTED SEWD AS HIGH PRES BUILDS S
OUT OF THE ARCTIC. CONCURRENTLY A BROAD AREA OF SFC LOW PRES
SWEEPS SEWD AND OFFSHORE...DRAWING COOLER AIR SOUTHWARD AS IT
BECOMES BETTER ORGANIZED AND DEEPENS INTO TUESDAY AROUND THE
40N/70W AND BETTER SFC BAROCLINIC ZONE. CONSEQUENTIAL DEEPENING
PROMOTES STRONG ONSHORE E/NELY FLOW BEGINNING SUNDAY NIGHT...AND
WITH HIGH ASTRONOMICAL TIDES...FLOODING ALONG THE ERN SHORES OF
NEW ENGLAND /INCLUDING CAPE COD BAY/ IS LIKELY.

TONIGHT...
UPR LVL LOW CONTINUES TO SLIDE SEWD. THOUGH DIURNAL MIXING
CONCLUDES...THERE IS THE HIGH PLAUSIBILITY FOR CONTINUED SHOWERY
WX FORCED BY INCREASED CYCLONIC FLOW AND ENHANCED ASCENT COUPLED
WITH AN INVERTED LOW-LVL TROF SWEEPING SWD THRU THE FCST AREA.
WILL GO WITH LIKELY POPS. CONSEQUENTIALLY NELY FLOW INCREASES IN
RESPONSE TO A TIGHTENING SFC PRES GRADIENT AND INCREASING
BAROCLINICITY...YET IT APPEARS WINDS WILL BE LATE...MORE LIKELY
STRENGTHENING INTO MONDAY MORNING. STILL WITH HIGH ASTRONOMICAL
TIDES...AND REPORTS OF MINOR FLOODING ACROSS THE BOSTON N SHORE
LAST NIGHT...THERE IS CONFIDENCE OF MINOR COASTAL FLOODING ALONG
THE ERN SHORES OF MA INTO CAPE COD BAY WARRANTING A COASTAL FLOOD
ADVISORY. THE GREATEST IMPACTS WILL LIKELY BE FELT AROUND LOCALES
SUCH AS BOSTON S SHORE AND SCITUATE SWD DOWN INTO CAPE COD BAY.

MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT...
INVERTED TROF CONTINUES TO SLINK SWD OUT TO SEA AS SFC LOW PRES
DEEPENS IN PROXIMITY TO THE BENCHMARK. GREATEST OF SHOWERY
CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY BE DURING THE MORNING PD WITH CONTINUED
CYCLONIC FLOW AND ENHANCED ASCENT...DISSIPATING INTO THE EVNG AS
THE STRONGER LIFT PUSHES OFFSHORE. NELY FLOW PREVAILS
SIGNIFICANTLY MORESO ALONG THE E SHORELINE WITH SUSTAINED WINDS
AROUND 20 KTS AND GUSTS UP TO AROUND 30 KTS. AM SOMEWHAT CONCERNED
OVER GALES FOR THE ERN WATERS /SEE MARINE FCST DISCUSSION/. THERE
IS SOME LVL OF UNCERTAINTY AS TO WHETHER BREAKS WILL DEVELOP IN
THE CLOUDS AND PSBLY MIX DOWN FASTER MOMENTUM TO THE SFC.
NEVERTHELESS THE EXPECTATION IS FOR STRONG SUSTAINED WINDS WITH
GUSTS 5-10 KTS IN EXCESS TO EXTEND FROM THE GULF OF ME SEWD INTO
THE WATERS S OF NEW ENGLAND.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
*** HIGHLY ANOMALOUS LATE SPRING NOR EASTER LINGERS INTO TUE WITH
PERIODS OF RAIN/WIND AND ADDITIONAL COASTAL FLOODING POSSIBLE ***

MODEL PREFERENCES...
GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT THIS PERIOD REGARDING THE DEPTH AND PROGRESSION
OF A HIGHLY ANOMALOUS NEGATIVE HEIGHT CENTER /ABOUT -3 STD/ AND
CORRESPONDING OCEAN STORM OVER GEORGES BANK 12Z TUE. THE UKMET IS ON
THE FAST EDGE OF THE GUIDANCE. HOWEVER WILL STAY CLOSER TO THE
SLOWER NAM/GFS AND ECMWF GIVEN THE HIGH LATITUDE BLOCKING PATTERN IN
PLACE. THIS ALSO SUGGEST PERSISTENCE WILL LIKELY BE THE MOST
SKILLFUL FORECAST. MODELS THEN DIFFER ON NEXT NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH
FRI/SAT WITH ECMWF MORE AMPLIFIED AND FARTHER SOUTH THAN THE UKMET AND
GFS. ECMWF TENDS TO HAVE A STRONG BIAS IN THE LONGER RANGE SO WILL
STICK WITH MODEL CONSENSUS HERE AND FOLLOW THE UKMET AND GFS.
OVERALL GMOS APPEARS A GOOD FIT TO THE SYNOPTIC SCALE SETTING SO
WILL NOT DEVIATE MUCH FROM GMOS.

SENSIBLE WEATHER DETAILS...

TUE/WED...
GALE CENTER OVER GEORGES BANK WILL SLOWLY MOVE SEAWARD THIS PERIOD.
EXPECT COMMA HEAD/TROWAL RAINS /MAINLY LIGHT/ TUE AND PROBABLY
DIMINISHING IN AREAL COVERAGE BY WED. GUSTY AND COOL NE WINDS WILL
CONTINUE TO IMPACT EASTERN MA EARLY TUE. TEMPS WELL BELOW NORMAL TUE
WITH HIGHS ONLY IN THE U50S TO L60S! NOT QUITE AS COOL WED AS
ONSHORE FLOW EASES.

THU...
BY THU GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT THAT NEGATIVE HEIGHT ANOMALY MOVES
NORTHEAST INTO THE ATLC CANADA WITH SUBTLE HEIGHT RISES OVER THE
NORTHEAST. SURFACE FLOW ALSO VEERS TO THE SSW. THIS COMBINATION
ALOFT AND AT THE SURFACE SHOULD YIELD TO SOME PARTIAL CLEARING.
HOWEVER WITH BROAD TROUGH ALOFT ALONG WITH WEAK CYCLONIC FLOW AND
COLD POOL DIURNAL CONVECTION IS POSSIBLE. ALTH NOT EXPECTING A
WASHOUT. SOME SUNSHINE WILL COMBINE WITH SSW SURFACE FLOW TO ALLOW
TEMPERATURES TO REBOUND TO 65-70.

FRI/SAT...
LOW FORECAST CONFIDENCE HERE AS MODELS DIFFER ON THE TIMING AND
TRACK OF NEXT NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH. HOWEVER BOTH MODELS OFFER SOME
QPF...MAINLY DIURNAL. IN ADDITION GMOS HAS LOW CHC POPS FRI/SAT.
THUS ENOUGH SUPPORT TO FOLLOW MDL GUID HERE AND INSERT SLIGHT/CHC
POPS FOR SHOWERS. ALTH DOESN/T APPEAR A WASHOUT GIVEN PRECIP WILL BE
CONVECTIVE AND DIURNAL IN NATURE.

&&

.AVIATION /17Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...
  LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT
  MODERATE...30 PERCENT TO 60 PERCENT
  HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT

OVERVIEW...

OVERVIEW...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.
MOSTLY VFR THROUGH THE DAY FROM TERMINALS W OF I-495...WITH SOME
LINGERING MVFR/LOW VFR MIX IN SOME WRAP-AROUND E OF THAT HIGHWAY.
DO EXPECT EVEN ERN TERMINALS CURRENTLY UNDER STRATOCU...WILL LIFT
TO VFR INTO THE EVENING. SCT -SHRA/TSTMS POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY W OF
ORH THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING.

OVERNIGHT INTO THE DAY TOMORROW WINDS WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT TO THE
NE. AS IT DOES SO EXPECT SOME MVFR/IFR CIGS TO BUILD OVER FROM
THE NE...WITH THE BEST CHANCE FOR IFR BEING OVER ERN TERMINALS.
ALSO EXPECT -SHRA TO MOVE DOWN FROM NH INTO THE MORNING HOURS.
WIND GUSTS OF 25-30 KT POSSIBLE DURING THE DAY MON.

KBOS TAF...
MVFR LINGERS IN STRATOCU THROUGH MID AFTERNOON...AFTER WHICH
EXPECTING A LIFT TO VFR WHICH WILL LIKELY LAST UNTIL CLOSE TO
MIDNIGHT. ONCE WINDS SHIFT MORE TO THE NE...LOWER MVFR THEN IFR
CIGS WILL MOVE IN ALONG WITH SOME -SHRA TOWARD DAYBREAK. AT LEAST
MVFR CONDITIONS WILL LINGER WELL INTO THE DAY TOMORROW. WINDS WILL
GENERALLY GUST OUT OF THE NW THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON...THEN SHIFT
TO THE NE OVERNIGHT...WINDS MAY GUST 25-30 KT DURING THE DAY
TOMORROW. MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

KBDL TAF...
GENERALLY VFR THROUGH THE EARLY OVERNIGHT HOURS. HOWEVER...MVFR
POSSIBLE POSSIBLE BRIEFLY THIS AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING IN SCT
-SHRA/TSTMS. OTHERWISE...REDUCTION TO MVFR LATE TONIGHT WITH -SHRA
POSSIBLE TOWARD MORNING. MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

OUTLOOK...TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...

TUE/WED...HIGH PROBABILITY FOR MVFR CONDITIONS IN SHOWERS. GUSTY NE
WINDS EARLY TUE ACROSS EASTERN MA WILL DIMINISH BY NIGHT OR WED.
FORECAST CONFIDENCE MODERATE.

THU...PROBABLY IMPROVING TO VFR ALTHOUGH MVFR POSSIBLE DURING THE
AFTN AND EVENING IN SCT AFTERNOON/EVENING SHOWERS AND ISOLATED TSTM
DEVELOP. FORECAST CONFIDENCE IS MODERATE.

&&

.MARINE...
THOUGH WINDS HAVE DISSIPATED...REMNANT SWELL WILL KEEP WAVES ACROSS
THE WATERS IN EXCESS OF 5 FEET. ANTICIPATE WAVE HEIGHTS TO DISSIPATE
ACROSS THE S WATERS INTO MONDAY MORNING...BUT AS SFC LOW PRES SWEEPS
SEWD ACROSS INTERIOR NEW ENGLAND AND DEEPENS ACROSS THE 40N/70W
BENCHMARK...N/NELY FLOW WILL INTENSIFY BEGINNING MONDAY NIGHT. SMALL
CRAFT ADV WILL CONTINUE INTO TUESDAY FOR THE E WATERS...AND THOUGH
DISCONTINUING MON MORNING FOR THE S WATERS...THEY WILL LIKELY HAVE
TO BE REISSUED FOR MON NGT. GREATEST IMPACTS WILL BE FELT ACROSS THE
E WATERS WITH PSBL GALES AND WAVE HEIGHTS UP TO AROUND 10 FT MONDAY
INTO MONDAY NIGHT...ALONG WITH SHOWERS AND PATCHY FOG LIKELY
RESULTING IN VSBY IMPACTS.

OUTLOOK...TUE THROUGH THU...

*** HIGHLY ANOMALOUS LATE SPRING GALE CENTER GENERALLY ESE OF THE
 NEW ENGLAND WATERS ***

TUE...GALE CENTER SHOULD BE OVER GEORGES BANK AND SLOWLY MOVING
SEAWARD. 10 FT SEAS LIKELY EASTERN NEW ENGLAND WATERS WITH A LOW
PROBABILITY OF 15 FT SEAS GIVEN LONG ENE FETCH AND DURATION. POOR
VSBY IN RAIN/DRIZZLE AND FOG.

WED...WINDS SLACKEN AS GALE CENTER MOVES SOUTH OF NEWFOUNDLAND.
HOWEVER LARGE ENE SWELLS WILL LINGER. VSBY SHOULD IMPROVE SOMEWHAT
DURING THE AFTERNOON.

THU...ADDITIONAL IMPROVEMENT WITH WEAK HIGH PRES BUILDING OVER THE
NORTHEAST. HOWEVER SOME RESIDUAL ENE SWELL WILL LINGER ACROSS THE
EASTERN NEW ENGLAND OCEAN WATERS. VSBY SHOULD BE AT LEAST MODEST.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
* COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY FOR TONIGHT FOR EAST COAST
* COASTAL FLOOD WATCH FOR MON NIGHT FOR EAST COAST

TONIGHT...
HIGH ASTRONOMICAL TIDES WILL OCCUR TONIGHT ROUGHLY AROUND MIDNIGHT
WITH BOSTON PEAKING AT 12.2 FT. SEEING AS REPORTS WERE GATHER OF
LOW LYING AREAS BECOMING INUNDATED ALONG THE NORTH SHORE OF BOSTON
HARBOR...A COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY WAS WARRANTED. THE GREATER
THREAT WILL BE ALONG THE IMMEDIATE EAST SHORELINE OF MA AND THE
SOUTH SHORE OF BOSTON AS WINDS OUT OF THE NORTHEAST BEGIN TO
INCREASE. ALTHOUGH THE STRONGEST WINDS WILL BE DELAYED MUCH AFTER
THE AFOREMENTIONED ASTRONOMICAL HIGH TIDE INTO MONDAY MORNING...
SPLASH OVER IS STILL ANTICIPATED ALONG WITH THE HIGH TIDES LENDING
TO INUNDATION OF LOW LYING AREAS.

MONDAY NIGHT...
WITH THE STRENGTHENING LOW OFFSHORE NEAR THE 40N/70W BENCHMARK AND
THE ANTICIPATION FOR STRONG NORTHEASTERLY WINDS /PSBL GALES/
COMBINED WITH SIMILAR HIGH ASTRONOMICAL TIDES AS TO BE SEEN
TONIGHT...THERE IS CONTINUED MODER TO HIGH CONFIDENCE OF MINOR TO
MODERATE COASTAL FLOODING ALONG THE EASTERN SHORELINE OF MA INTO
CAPE COD BAY. THE COASTAL FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES ACCORDINGLY.

WILL HOLD OFF FOR TUESDAY AS THERE ARE STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY
REGARDING WIND STRENGTH AS WELL AS SEA HEIGHTS. STAY TUNED TO
LATER FORECASTS FOR UPDATED INFORMATION.
