AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
433 PM EDT THU SEP 12 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO GRADUALLY OVERSPREAD THE
REGION FROM WEST TO EAST THROUGH THE EVENING.  SOME OF THE STORMS
MAY BE SEVERE WITH LARGE HAIL/DAMAGING WINDS ALONG WITH HEAVY
RAIN/LOCALIZED FLOODING. THE FRONT MOVES OFFSHORE FRIDAY. HIGH
PRESSURE THEN BUILDS OVER THE REGION WITH DRY WEATHER FOR THE
WEEKEND. A WEAK COLD FRONT CROSSES ON MONDAY...FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER
HIGH PRESSURE AND MORE DRY WEATHER FOR MIDWEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...

***SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AND FLASH FLOOD WATCH RUN ROUGHLY TO THE
  NORTHWEST OF A BOSTON TO PROVIDENCE LINE THROUGH THE EVENING
  HOURS***

PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH COMBINED WITH INSTABILITY HAS ALLOWED BANDS OF
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS TO AFFECT WESTERN NEW ENGLAND.  AS OF LATE
AFTERNOON...NUMEROUS SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS WERE AFFECTING NORTHWEST
MA/SOUTHWEST NH.  ADDITIONAL SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE MOVING
INTO WESTERN MA FROM NEW YORK STATE THROUGH EARLY EVENING.  MLCAPES
ARE STILL ON THE ORDER OF 1500 TO 2500 J/KG IN THIS REGION ALONG
WITH 30 TO 35 KTS OF 0 TO 6 KM SHEAR.  THEREFORE...THE POTENTIAL
CONTINUES FOR SCATTERED STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THIS
REGION INTO THE EVENING.  MAIN THREATS WILL BE STRONG TO DAMAGING
STRAIGHT LINE WINDS WITH A SECONDARY CONCERN OF LARGE HAIL.  SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH CONTINUES UNTIL 10 PM FOR SOUTHERN
NH...WESTERN/CENTRAL AND NORTHEAST MA...AS WELL AS NORTHERN CT.

IN ADDITION...PWATS ON THE ORDER OF 1.5 TO 2 INCHES WILL COMBINED
WITH STRONG FORCING.  THIS WILL CONTINUE TO YIELD HEAVY
RAINFALL/LOCALIZED FLOODING WITH THE STRONGER STORMS ACROSS INTERIOR
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES IN THIS
REGION...WHERE TRAINING THUNDERSTORMS MAY LEAD TO LOCALIZED AREAS OF
FLASH FLOODING.

MEANWHILE...ACROSS NORTHERN CT/RI AND EASTERN MA A POCKET OF DRY AIR
IN THE MID LEVELS WILL PREVENT MUCH CONVECTION THROUGH 7 OR 8 PM.
IN FACT...IT MAY TAKE UNTIL AFTER 10 OR 11 PM TO GET MUCH ACTIVITY
INTO THE BOSTON TO PROVIDENCE CORRIDOR.  THREAT FOR STRONG-SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS IS LOWER IN THIS REGION GIVEN THAT THERE WILL BE LESS
INSTABILITY BY THIS TIME.  STILL A LOW RISK IN NORTHERN CT IF STORMS
CAN GET INTO THE REGION BY EARLY EVENING.  LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL
AND POOR DRAINAGE STREET FLOODING WILL BE A CONCERN INTO THE EARLY
MORNING HOURS ON THE COASTAL PLAIN.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...

ACTUAL SURFACE COLD FRONTS MOVES THROUGH THE REGION EARLY FRIDAY.
SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL LIKELY LINGER ALONG THE
COASTAL PLAIN THROUGH MUCH OF THE MORNING HOURS.  OTHERWISE...UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH AXIS WILL REMAIN TO OUR WEST.  WHILE MUCH OF THE
AFTERNOON WILL PROBABLY END UP DRY...MAY SEE A FEW SPOT SHOWERS
LINGER INTO THE AFTERNOON.  AS FOR SKY COVER...WHILE A FEW PEEKS OF
SUN WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE AFTERNOON CLOUDS WILL DOMINATE GIVEN
MODEL CROSS SECTIONS.

HIGH TEMPS WILL BE MUCH COOLER ON FRIDAY BEHIND THE COLD FRONT.
HIGHS SHOULD RANGE FROM THE UPPER 60S TO NEAR 70 ACROSS THE INTERIOR
HIGH TERRAIN AND WELL INTO THE 70S ELSEWHERE.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...

HEADLINES...

* HIGH PRESSURE USHERS COOL AND DRY AIR FOR THE WEEKEND
* DRY COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY...SPRINKLES
* RENEWED HIGH PRESSURE WITH COOL AND DRY CONDITIONS INTO FRIDAY
* ACTIVE WET WEATHER PATTERN BY LATE FRIDAY INTO WEEKEND

*/OVERVIEW AND MODEL CONSENSUS...

MUCH BETTER BROADSCALE AGREEMENT BETWEEN DETERMINISTIC SOLUTIONS AND
THEIR RESPECTIVE ENSEMBLE COUNTERPARTS. TROUGHING PATTERN RETAINS
THROUGH THE WEEKEND INTO THE EARLY PORTION OF THE WEEK...WITH THE
GREATER CYCLONIC AXIS TO THE EAST OF NEW ENGLAND WITH THE PROMOTION
OF SUBSIDENCE AND HIGH PRESSURE TO THE REAR. OVERALL TRENDS ARE FOR
THE TROUGH TO SHIFT EAST AS IT DEAMPLIFIES PROMOTING WEAK RIDGING
INTO THE REGION TOWARDS THE END OF THE WEEK. A CONTINUED SIGNAL OF
RETURN TROUGHING BY THE WEEKEND AND AN ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN.

*/DAY-TO-DAY DETAILS...

*/FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY...

HIGH PRESSURE SWEEPING ACROSS THE REGION WILL USHER BELOW-NORMAL
TEMPERATURES AND DRY CONDITIONS. SATURDAY INTO SATURDAY NIGHT
COOLEST OF TIMEFRAME WITH H85 AIRMASS AROUND +5C WITH LIGHT WINDS.

HIGH TEMPERATURES AROUND THE MID-60S. WILL SEE RETURN SOUTHERLY FLOW
WITH WARMER CONDITIONS BY SUNDAY AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT.

*/SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY...

DRY COLD FRONT SWEEPING ACROSS THE REGION AHEAD OF WHICH A MORE
CONTINENTAL AIRMASS ADVECTED BY WESTERLY FLOW WILL YIELD A SLIGHT
CHANCE OF SPRINKLES/SHOWERS. DEEP LAYER LIFT...BUT NOT A LOT OF
MOISTURE TO WORK WITH. WILL SEE SOME BREEZY WEST-SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS
AHEAD OF THE FRONT...BECOMING BLUSTERY TO THE REAR OUT OF THE WEST-
NORTHWEST. H85 WINDS AROUND 25 TO 30 MPH...COULD SEE SOME DECENT
GUSTS DURING THE DAY MONDAY WITH DEEP BOUNDARY LAYER MIXING. MAY
NEED TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT GALES OVER THE WATERS. H85 TEMPERATURES
AROUND +3-4C...LOOKS TO BE A CHILLY DAY.

*/MONDAY NIGHT INTO THE WEEKEND...

HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS WITH A CONTINUED AVERAGE H85 AIRMASS ALOFT OF
+5C. THAT CONTINUES THE BELOW-NORMAL TEMPERATURES WITH DRY
CONDITIONS. COOLEST OF CONDITIONS LOOK TO PREVAIL MONDAY NIGHT INTO
TUESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE SHUNTS EAST LATE TUESDAY ALLOWING RETURN
SOUTHERLY FLOW WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY...WILL SEE GUSTS AT TIMES AT
THE SURFACE AS +16C H85 AIR ADVECTS NORTHEASTWARD. WARM AND MUGGY
CONDITIONS RETURN AHEAD OF A TROUGH SWEEPING INTO NEW ENGLAND BY THE
