AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CARIBOU ME
1216 PM EDT SUN OCT 28 2012
.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN ACROSS THE REGION TODAY. SANDY WILL CONTINUE
TO MOVE UP THE EASTERN SEABOARD AND MOVE NORTHWESTWARD INTO PENNSYLVANIA
BY MONDAY NIGHT. SANDY IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN AND CONTINUE TO AFFECT
OUR REGION WITH SOME RAIN AND BRISK WINDS INTO WEDNESDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
1215 PM UPDATE...LOW CLOUDS ARE HANGING TOUGH TODAY, BUT WE ARE
STARTING TO SEE A FEW BREAKS IN THE CLOUD COVER OUTSIDE THE
OFFICE. HAVE GONE A LITTLE MORE PESSIMISTIC ON CLOUDS FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THIS AFTERNOON, BUT STILL FEEL THERE WILL BE A PERIOD
OF PARTLY SUNNY CONDITIONS LATER TODAY. THE EXCEPTION IS INTERIOR
DOWNEAST AND COASTAL MAINE, WHERE THE STRATUS DECK WILL BE HARDER
TO BURN OFF. ALSO LOWERED MAX TEMPS A BIT IN SOME AREAS DUE TO
CLOUD COVER. NO OTHER CHANGES NEEDED.
PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN OVER THE
STATE TODAY. HURRICANE SANDY WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE NORTHWARD OFF
THE MID ATLANTIC STATES TODAY AND TONIGHT. HAVE USED A BLEND OF
THE NAM12...GFS40 ...SREF AND ECMWF FOR POP GRIDS. FOR WIND WILL
BLEND THE NAM12 AND GMOS. TEMPERATURE AND DEW POINT GENERATED WITH
THE NAM12 ...AND WILL INCREASE THE MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE TODAY
SEVERAL DEGREES. FOR QPF WILL BLEND THE NAM80...GFS40 ....SREF AND
ECMWF.
&&
.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
CHALLENGE CONTINUES TO BE AFFECTS OF WHAT IS EXPECTED TO BECOME
EXTRATROPICAL STORM SANDY. MAIN CONCERNS WILL BE WIND, HEAVY
RAINFALL AND COASTAL FLOODING.
SANDY IS STILL PROGGED BY JUST ABOUT ALL THE GUIDANCE INCLUDING
THE NAM/GFS AND ECMWF ALONG W/THE CANADIAN GUIDANCE TO MOVE
ACROSS NEW JERSEY. AS SHE DOES SO, THE STORM WILL TRANSITION TO
EXTRATROPICAL W/THE WIND FIELD SPREADING OUT FROM THE CENTER.
SANDY IS A LARGE STORM AND LOOKS TO COVER A GOOD CHUNK OF REAL
ESTATE AS FAR NORTH AS NORTH-CENTRAL MAINE. THE THREE MAIN POINTS
TO COVER WILL BE MENTIONED BELOW;
1ST...AS STATED ABOVE, WINDS WILL SPREAD OUT FROM THE CENTER
STARTING ON MONDAY AS SANDY APCHS THE NEW JERSEY COAST. 925-850MB
AN ESE JET OF 55-65+ KTS NOTED ON THE NAM AND GFS SOUNDINGS
HITTING THE COAST AND DOWNEAST BY MONDAY AFTERNOON INTO MONDAY
EVENING. SOME CROSSING OF THE WIND IS NOTED W/ENE WINDS AT THE
SFC. STRONG 0-6KM SHEAR OF 55+KTS OVER THE DOWNEAST AND COAST
NOTED AND W/RAINFALL PICKING UP IN INTENSITY, THESE WINDS COULD
EASILY GET TRANSLATED DOWN TO THE SFC. HIGH WIND WATCH REMAINS UP
FOR THE INTERIOR DOWNEAST(INCLUDING BANGOR) TO THE COAST. SOME
CONCERN THAT THE CENTRAL HIGHLANDS COULD SEE GUSTS HITTING CLOSE
TO 50 MPH ESPECIALLY IN THE UPSLOPE AREAS. AS ONE TRAVELS N AND W,
THE EFFECTS OF THE WIND ARE NOT AS GREAT. COLLABORATED W/GYX ON
EXPANDING THE HIGH WIND WATCH, CONFIDENCE ATTM IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH
TO PUSH THE WATCH FURTHER N FOR ONE AND GIVEN WHERE SANDY WILL BE
MOVING, THINKING HERE IS THAT THE GREATEST EFFECTS WILL BE OVER
THE DOWNEAST AND COAST. WINDS WILL COME DOWN LATER TUESDAY AS
SANDY MOVES FURTHER W AND CONTINUES TO WEAKEN. STILL PLENTY OF
TIME FOR THE DAYCREW TO ASSESS THIS SITUATION TODAY.
2ND...DECIDED TO GO W/A COASTAL FLOOD WATCH FOR HANCOCK AND
WASHINGTON COUNTY AS EASTERLY FETCH W/BUILDING WAVES WILL LEAD TO
OVERWASH TO SUCH AREAS SUCH AS SEAWALL ROAD IN HANCOCK COUNTY AND
ACADIA NAT'L PARK. THE WARNING IS UP FOR MONDAY NIGHT FOR THE HIGH
TIDE AT 11 PM. LATEST GUIDANCE KEEPS THE WATER LEVELS JUST BELOW
THE HIGH MARK OF 14.0 FT AT BAR HARBOR, BUT ANY SHIFT AND BUILD
IN WAVE HEIGHTS COULD LEAD TO A PROBLEM. CONCERN IS THERE AS WELL
FOR THE MACHIAS AREA.
3RD...FLOODING CONCERNS ARE THERE AS PERIODS OF HEAVY RAINFALL
WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION MAINLY MONDAY NIGHT ON INTO TUESDAY
NIGHT AND COULD EXTEND INTO WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL BE DISCUSSED
BELOW IN THE LONG TERM SECTION. AFTER COLLABORATING W/GYX AND
USING THE LATEST GUIDANCE FROM HPC, DECISION HERE WAS TO HOLD OFF
ON ANY FLOOD WATCH. WE ARE STILL EXPECTING 1-3 INCHES OF RAINFALL
ACROSS THE REGION OVER A 48 HRS PERIOD W/THE HIGHEST AMOUNTS
ACROSS DOWNEAST AND UPSLOPE AREAS. DAYCREW CAN ASSESS THIS MORE
TODAY W/THE LATER MODEL RUNS AND QPF GUIDANCE FROM HPC AND NERFC.
&&
.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS MENTIONED ABOVE SANDY WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK WNW AND WEAKEN.
THE STORM IS THEN EXPECTED TO LIFT NORTH AS THE UPPER LOW CAPTURES
THE SFC LOW. THIS WILL BE AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF RAIN/SHOWERS FOR
THE NEW ENGLAND REGION INCLUDING MAINE RIGHT INTO THURSDAY.
DAYCREW HAS THIS HANDLED WELL W/80-90% POPS FOR RAIN TUESDAY NIGHT
INTO WEDNESDAY AND THEN A TRANSITION TO SHOWERS AS SANDY LIFTS N
LATER IN THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY AND CONTINUES ACROSS THE QUEBEC
PROVINCE ON THURSDAY. RAINFALL COULD BE HEAVY AT TIMES TUESDAY
NIGHT INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY. THE LATEST ECMWF CONTINUES TO
ADVERTISE A DECENT AREA OF ADDITIONAL RAINFALL OF UP TO 1.25
INCHES FROM NE MAINE DOWN ACROSS THE CENTRAL HIGHLANDS INTO THE
DOWNEAST REGION. THIS IS WHEN FLOODING CONCERNS COULD ARISE AS SOIL
WILL BE SATURATED AND IT WON'T TAKE MUCH FOR THIS ADDITIONAL
RAINFALL TO LEAD TO SOME SMALLER STREAMS TO REACH HIGH LEVELS OR
NEAR BANKFULL. AGAIN, DAYCREW WILL NEED TO ASSESS THIS FURTHER TODAY.
TEMPERATURES DURING THIS TIMEFRAME WILL BE NEAR OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE
NORMAL A LIGHT SSE FLOW CONTINUING IN THE LLVLS.
COOLER TEMPERATURES AND A GRADUAL DRYING TREND LOOKS TO COME LATER
FRIDAY INTO THE WEEKEND AS HIGH PRES MOVES IN FROM THE W. LATEST
GMOS MATCHED UP CLOSE TO THE DAYCREW'S ASSESSMENT AND DECIDED TO
STAY CLOSE TO WHAT WAS SETUP. TEMPERATURES WILL DROP BACK TO
NORMAL READINGS BY LATER FRIDAY INTO THE WEEKEND.
&&
.AVIATION /16Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
NEAR TERM: IFR CONDITIONS THIS MORNING SOUTH THEN VFR. IFR
CONDITIONS EXPECTED LATE TONIGHT.
SHORT TERM: IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS RIGHT INTO TUESDAY AND POSSIBLY TO
WEDNESDAY. GRADUAL IMPROVEMENT TO MVFR COULD BE SEEN BY THURSDAY.
LLWS IS A BIG CONCERN MONDAY INTO TUESDAY W/AN ESE WIND SETTING
UP.
&&
.MARINE...
UPDATE 0710 EDT: HAVE ADJUSTED WIND SPEED SEVERAL KNOTS HIGHER
INTO THIS AFTERNOON.
NEAR TERM: HAVE USED A BLEND OF THE NAM12 AND GFS40 FOR WIND
GRIDS. FOR WAVES: NORTHEAST WIND WAVE WILL GRADUALLY INCREASE
TODAY AND PREDOMINATE AS PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS WITH HURRICANE
SANDY MOVING TO THE NORTH. LONGER PERIOD SOUTHERLY WAVE GROUPS
WILL REMAIN BELOW 2 FEET UNTIL LATE TONIGHT. WILL USE THE SWAN/NAM
TO POPULATE WAVE GRIDS.
SHORT TERM: COORDINATED W/GYX, AND DECIDED TO UPGRADE TO STORM
WARNING FROM MONDAY INTO EARLY TUESDAY MORNING. GUSTS COULD HIT
>55 KT MAINLY ACROSS THE HIGHER PLATFORMS. A STRONG 60-65KT JET
FROM 925-850MBS IS SHOWN TO SET UP OVER THE WATERS. SOME OF THIS
COULD EASILY MIX DOWN BY LATER MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT. IN
ADDITION, SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO BUILD TO 20-24 FT AT THE HEIGHT OF
THE EVENT WHICH IS MONDAY NIGHT. THE LATEST WNAWAVE LOOKED TO BE
TOO LOW AND BLENDED IN THE SWAN GUIDANCE TO ACCOUNT FOR THE HIGHER
SEAS. CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO DROP BACK TO SCA LEVELS ON
TUESDAY AND CONTINUE INTO WEDNESDAY.
