Special Weather Statement, NWS Boston/Norton, MA

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

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL BRING SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...SOME
LOCALLY STRONG TO SEVERE TO THE REGION INTO EARLY THIS EVENING. HIGH
PRESSURE BRINGS A RETURN TO DRY...WARM AND LESS HUMID 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 4 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...

840 PM UPDATE...
POTENT SHORTWAVE/COLD POOL ALOFT CONTINUED TO RESULT IN SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND EVEN A FEW ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS AT MID
EVENING...DESPITE THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING.  WE DO EXPECT THIS
ACTIVITY TO FINALLY DISSIPATE OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS AS DRIER
AIR CONTINUES TO WORK DOWN FROM THE NORTH...ELIMINATING THE
REMAINING INSTABILITY.

OTHERWISE...EXPECT SKIES TO BECOME MOSTLY CLEAR AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH
PATCHY FOG DEVELOPING IN THE TYPICALLY PRONE LOCATIONS.  LOW
TEMPERATURES SHOULD RANGE FROM THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 50S ACROSS
SOUTHWEST NH/WESTERN MA...TO MAINLY BETWEEN 60 AND 65 ELSEWHERE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /4 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
WED...

A GEM OF A DAY AND PROBABLY THE PICK OF THE WEEK AS DEEP LAYER RIDGE
BUILDS OVER NEW ENGLAND. A REFRESHING NNW WIND UP TO 25 MPH DURING
THE MORNING WILL EASE IN THE AFTN. 850 TEMPS AROUND +11C COMBINED
WITH MIXING TO 800 MB ALONG WITH SOME DOWNSLOPE WIND WILL YIELD
HIGHS IN THE LOW TO MID 80S IN THE COASTAL PLAIN...SLIGHTLY COOLER
HIGHER TERRAIN AND CAPE COD AND ISLANDS WITH NNW WIND.

&&

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

* STRONG THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE THURSDAY
* ACTIVE WEATHER WILL CONTINUE INTO THE WEEKEND
* POSSIBLE CLEARING AND IMPROVING WEATHER BY THE BEGINNING OF NEXT
WEEK

DETAILS...

MODELS/PATTERN...
MODELS IN GENERAL AGREEMENT FOR THIS PERIOD...MINUS A FEW MESOSCALE
DIFFERENCES. UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER HUDSON BAY WILL KEEP AN ACTIVE
WEATHER PATTERN FOR THE REGION. THE GFS IS A LITTLE MORE PROGRESSIVE
AND AMPLIFIED THAN THE ECMWF...ESP INTO NEXT WEEK. HOWEVER OVERALL
PATTERN REMAINS THE SAME. ZONAL FLOW ALOFT WILL HAVE A SHORTWAVE
MOVE THROUGH IT EARLY THURSDAY MORNING...WITH ANOTHER SHORTWAVE
RIGHT BEHIND IN THE AFTERNOON. SLIGHT RIDGING BY FRIDAY AM FOLLOW BY
STOUT TROUGH OVER THE REGION UNTIL MONDAY.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY...
DRY FORECAST TO START...HOWEVER MODELS ARE HINTING AT A POSSIBLE MCS
MOVING THROUGH THE REGION EARLY THURSDAY MORNING. BEST TIMING FOR
SNE WOULD BE AROUND 12Z. STILL PLENTY OF TIMING WITH THIS SCENARIO
AS THE GFS BRING THIS MCS FARTHER NORTHERN ACROSS S VT/S NH/AND NE
MA. THE ECMWF AND NAM BRING THE MCS ACROSS N CT/RI/AND MA. GOOD
AMOUNT OF SHEAR AND LLJ WILL STREAM LINE THIS SYSTEM...HOWEVER NOT A
LOT OF INSTABILITY PER MODELS. STILL A LOT OF UNCERTAINTY. DEPENDING
ON HOW THE ATMOSPHERE RECOVERS...THURSDAY LOOKS TO BE THE BEST DAY
FOR STRONG TO POSSIBLE SEVERE STORMS AS ML CAPE REACHES NEAR 2000
J/KG AND 0-6 KM BULK SHEAR NEARS 50 KTS AS A SURFACE LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM APPROACHES THE AREA. STILL A LOT OF UNCERTAINTY WITH THIS
SYSTEM...BUT CONDITIONS ARE STARTING TO LINE UP FOR AN ACTIVE
THURSDAY.

FRIDAY INTO THE WEEKEND...
LINGERING COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH SURFACE LOW THAT MOVED THROUGH
OVERNIGHT WILL STALL OVER SNE ON FRIDAY. THIS MAY BRING ANOTHER
ROUND OF STRONG STORMS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE AREA BY
FRIDAY. SHORTWAVE ALOFT WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE THROUGH PUSHING THE
LOW OFFSHORE BY FRIDAY NIGHT. WITH THE REGION STILL UNDER A TROUGH
CONDITIONS ARE STILL FAVORABLE FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS. DEPENDING ON
HEATING...THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE AS WELL. SUNDAY LOOKS TO BE THE
BEST DAY FOR NO SHOWERS...BUT STILL CANNOT RULE IT OUT.

TEMPS WILL BE CLOSE TO AVERAGE WITH UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S AS HIGH
TEMPS WITH MID TO LOWER 60S AS MIN TEMPS. HOWEVER DEWPOINTS FRIDAY
INTO SUNDAY WILL BE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S ESP ACROSS THE SOUTH
SHORE MAKING IT QUITE MUGGY/HUMID.

DID A BLEND OF HPC/ECMWF/AND NAM FOR THIS CURRENT FORECAST.

NEXT WEEK...
MONDAY LOOKS TO BE DRY AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVED OVER...HOWEVER IT
APPEARS THAT ANOTHER SHORTWAVE WILL APPROACH THE REGION BY
TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY BRINGING ANOTHER CHANCE FOR ACTIVE WEATHER.
