AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
352 AM EDT TUE MAR 19 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A SIGNIFICANT WINTER STORM WILL IMPACT MUCH OF SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND TODAY. DRY...BLUSTERY AND COLDER THAN NORMAL CONDITIONS
WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION WEDNESDAY AND CONTINUE THROUGH THIS
WEEKEND. A WEAK REINFORCING COLD FRONT MAY MOVE ACROSS SATURDAY
NIGHT OR SUNDAY. LOW PRESSURE MAY DEVELOP OFF THE EASTERN SEABOARD
EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
200 AM UPDATE...
HAVE MADE MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO FORECAST TO ACCOUNT FOR CURRENT
CONDITIONS. SWATH OF MOISTURE HAS CONTINUED TO FLOW UPSTREAM INTO
SNE OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS. THIS IS NOTED IN THE 850MB MOISTURETRANSPORT.
EXPECT MOISTURE TO CONTINUE TO MOVE INTO THE REGION OVERNIGHT.
THIS COMBINED WITH LIFT FROM A DEVELOPING SURFACE LOW OVER THE
MID-ATLANTIC WILL COMBINED WITH GOOD DYNAMICS FOR SNOW. ALREADY
RECEIVED A VARIETY OF REPORTS RANGING FROM A TRACE TO 3 INCHES
ACROSS THE AREA...WOULDNT BE SURPRISED IF THESE NUMBERS DOUBLED BY
MORNING.

KEPT MAINLY PREV FORECASTERS THINKING IN TERMS OF
TEMPS/QPF/THICKNESS...BUT WANT TO SEE WHAT THE LATEST 00Z MODEL
GUIDANCE PUTS OUT BEFORE MAKING ANY MAJOR UPDATES TO THE FORECAST.
AM CONCERNED THAT PARTS OF CT AND S RI MAY ALREADY START TO SEE SLEET/FZRA
WITHIN THE NEXT 1-3 HOURS. DUAL-POL IMAGERY AT 0530Z
SHOWSDISCREPANCIESIN THE HYDROMETEORS SHAPE AS THE CC VALUES ARE
QUITE LOW...INDICATING THAT THE DROPLETS ARE NOT UNIFORM. THE
HIGHER VALUES ON THE ZDR ALSO INDICATES LARGER DROPS...SO BELIEVE
THAT IS MAY BE THE RAIN/SNOW LINE. PLAN ON KEEPING AN EYE ON IT
ESP IN CT TO SEE WHAT THE 06Z OBS REPORT.

WINDS ARE ALSO STARTING TO INCREASE ACROSS THE AREA. AS THE
SURFACE LOW FORMS...THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL TIGHTEN AND GUSTS
OF 25 KTS ARE POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT INTO TOMORROW.

ONCE AGAIN...NO CHANGES IN HEADLINES AT THIS TIME.

LOW PRESSURE MOVES NORTHEASTWARD SKIRTING THE CAPE AND ISLANDS AND
BRINGING A WINTRY MIX OF PRECIPITATION TO MUCH OF SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND.  HEAVY SNOW WILL START TO CHANGE OVER TO SLEET AND THEN
FREEZING RAIN AND FINALLY TO ALL RAIN STARTING FROM THE SOUTHWEST
AND MOVING NORTHEASTWARD.  EXPECT THE NORTHWARD EXTENT OF THE
CHANGEOVER TO BE THE MASS PIKE.  NORTH OF THE MASS PIKE...EXPECT
PTYPE TO REMAIN AS SNOW AND POSSIBLY A BRIEF PERIOD /LESS THAN 3
HOURS/ OF A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW.  COLD AIR REMAINS PRETTY WELL
DAMMED INTO THE EASTERN ZONES...SO THESE WILL BE THE LAST TO
CHANGEOVER TO A MIX AND THEN TO RAIN.

WITH MUCH OF BOSTON REMAINING AS SNOW THROUGH THE ENTIRE STORM...
HAVE UPGRADED THE ADVISORY FOR SUFFOLK COUNTY TO A WINTER STORM
WARNING.  BELIEVE THE SOUTH COAST AND CAPE COD WILL REMAIN IN THE
COLD AIR LONG ENOUGH TO GET A QUICK 2 TO 4 INCHES OF SNOW...SO HAVE
ADDED THEM TO THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR SOUTHEASTERN
MASSACHUSETTS AND SOUTHERN RHODE ISLAND.

AFTER ABOUT 9 AM...WILL LIKELY SEE A BRIEF DRIER SPELL.  MODELS ARE
TRYING TO DEVELOP A DRY SLOT ALOFT DURING THIS PERIOD.  WITH PLENTY
OF MOISTURE IN THE LOW LEVELS STILL...EXPECT THIS WILL NOT BE ENOUGH
TO COMPLETELY CUTOFF PRECIP BUT WILL MORE LIKELY RESULT IN LOWER
INTENSITY PRECIP...LIGHT SNOW/FLURRIES OR LIGHT RAIN/DRIZZLE.  THIS
WILL CONTINUE FOR SEVERAL HOURS.  BETWEEN NOON AND 2 PM...MOISTURE
INCREASES AGAIN IN THE MID LEVELS AND WE EXPECT THE PRECIP INTENSITY
TO INCREASE...PARTICULARLY ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND
NORTHEASTERN MASSACHUSETTS.  COULD SEE SNOWFALL RATES BETWEEN 1 AND
2 INCHES PER HOUR DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS IN THIS AREA BEFORE
SNOW COMES TO AN END DURING THE EARLY EVENING.

PRECIP MAY CHANGE BACK TO SNOW BEFORE COMING TO AN END TUESDAY
EVENING.  ALL PRECIP SHOULD HAVE COME TO AN END BY MIDNIGHT.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE DROPPING INTO THE 20S ALMOST EVERYWHERE
OVERNIGHT WHICH WILL ALLOW RAIN AND SNOW TO REFREEZE ON SURFACES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...

WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY... SURFACE LOW AND UPPER LOW FORM A CLOSED
VERTICALLY STACKED CIRCULATION OVER THE NORTHEAST USA.  COLD POOL
TEMPS AND MOISTURE REMAIN OVER THE NORTHEAST WITH THE CORE OF CLOUDS
AND INSTABILITY OVER THE EASTERN LAKES AND NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND.
PARTLY CLOUDY NORTH OF THE MASS PIKE...MOSTLY CLEAR SOUTH.

SHORTWAVE ROTATING AROUND THE UPPER LOW EXTENDS SOUTH ON
THURSDAY...DRAWING ANOTHER DEVELOPING COASTAL LOW NORTH.  THIS LOW
REMAINS WELL OFFSHORE...BUT COMBINED WITH THE TROUGH AXIS THERE
SHOULD BE ENOUGH LIFT AND MOISTURE FOR SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS
THURSDAY ESPECIALLY MHT-ORH-IJD EASTWARD...DIMINISHING BY FRIDAY.

COLD POOL REMAINS IN PLACE ALL THREE DAYS...WITH TEMPS ALOFT
SUPPORTING MID 30S TO AROUND 40. CLOUDS THURSDAY MAY KEEP MAX
TEMPS A COUPLE OF DEGREES BELOW THIS MAX POTENTIAL.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...

NO CHANGES MADE IN THE FORECAST FRIDAY NIGHT TO MONDAY.

HEADLINES...

* DRY BUT COLDER THAN NORMAL WEATHER RETURNS WEDNESDAY AND CONTINUES
  THROUGH THIS WEEKEND
* MONITORING POSSIBLE LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPING OFF THE MID ATLC OR SE
  U.S. COAST SUNDAY NIGHT OR MONDAY

SYNOPTIC OVERVIEW AND MODEL PREFERENCES...
WITH CONTINUED BLOCKING ACROSS GREENLAND INDICATIVE OF A NEGATIVE
NAO PATTERN...NOTING CUTOFF LOW PRES ACROSS THE NORTHEAST U.S. FOR
MOST IF NOT ALL OF THIS PERIOD AND LIKELY BEYOND. MEDIUM RANGE
MODELS IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT AT THE SURFACE AND ALOFT INTO THIS
WEEKEND...THEN DEPARTURES COME INTO PLAY WITH EXIT OF CUTOFF UPPER
LOW. 00Z ECMWF APPEARS TO SHOW SOMEWHAT BETTER CONTINUITY WITH
PREVIOUS RUNS AS WELL AS ITS ENSEMBLE MEAN...SUPPRESSING THE POLAR
FRONT MUCH FURTHER S THAN NORMAL FOR THE BEGINNING OF ASTRONOMICAL
SPRING. THIS IS KEEPING AN ANOMOLOUSLY COLD PATTERN ACROSS THE
REGION INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK AND BEYOND.

NOTING 00Z EC/12Z GFS BOTH DEVELOPING LOW PRES AROUND THE MID
ATLC/SE U.S. COAST LATE IN THE PERIOD. RATHER WIDE VARIANCE IN THE
LOCATION AND TRACK OF THIS LOW...SO LOW CONFIDENCE ON THIS FEATURE
AND ITS POSSIBLE EFFECTS ON THE REGION.

DETAILS...

SATURDAY-SUNDAY...OFFSHORE LOW PRES FINALLY EXITS DURING SATURDAY
WITH NW FLOW WORKING INTO THE REGION. APPEARS THAT WEAK SHORT
WAVE/ REINFORCING COLD FRONT WORKS S IN THE UPPER FLOW SAT NIGHT-
SUN. HAVE SLIGHT CHANCE POPS MENTIONED DURING THIS TIMEFRAME.

SUNDAY NIGHT-MONDAY...00Z ECMWF AND 12Z GFS OP RUNS SHOW LOW PRES
DEVELOPING OFF EITHER THE MID ATLC OR SE U.S. COAST DURING THIS
TIMEFRAME. APPEARS THE 12Z GFS OP RUN IS FURTHER S IN MOVING THIS
FEATURE OFFSHORE DURING MON THAN ITS 00Z RUN...BUT STILL QUITE A BIT
FARTHER N THAN THE 00Z EC/ECENS MEAN. RATHER LOW CONFIDENCE DUE TO
THE WIDE VARIANCE IN MODEL SOLUTIONS. WILL LEAN TOWARD THE EC/ECENS
FOR THIS FORECAST PACKAGE...KEEPING DRY AND COLD CONDITIONS IN PLACE
FOR THE END OF THIS PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...
  LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT.
  MODERATE...30 TO 60 PERCENT.
  HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT.

OVERVIEW...MODERATE CONFIDENCE TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT.

OVERNIGHT...IFR OUT WEST AND LIFR CONDITIONS OUT EAST WILL
CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT AS SNOW CONTINUES TO FALL ACROSS
THE REGION. BELIEVE MANY SITES WILL BOUNCE BETWEEN IFR/LIFR. ACK
WILL REMAIN MAINLY MVFR WITH RA. SLEET/FREEZING RA MAIN IMPACT
SOUTHERN TERMINALS BY THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.

TUESDAY...SNOW AND LIFR CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST N OF ROUTE 2 AND
MIXED PRECIP S OF THAT LINE TO ABOUT A BOS-CEF-BAF LINE. FURTHER
S...THE PRECIP WILL LIKELY CHANGE TO RAIN BY LATE TUE MORNING.
REGARDLESS OF PRECIP TYPE...CIGS AND VSBYS EXPECTED TO BE
GENERALLY IFR/LIFR. E WINDS OVER COASTAL SE MA AND COASTAL RI MAY
GUST TO 35 KT FOR A TIME TUE MORNING.

TUESDAY NIGHT...CONDITIONS SHOULD BE IMPROVING FROM SW TO NE FROM
IFR/MVFR TO VFR WITH THE MOST IMPROVEMENT AFTER MIDNIGHT.

KBOS TAF...HIGH CONFIDENCE ON TRENDS...MODERATE CONFIDENCE ON
TIMING. LIFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THE NIGHT DUE TO HVY SNOW...THEN
MIXING WITH SLEET/RAIN TUESDAY THEN CHANGING TO AROUND DURING THE
AFTERNOON.

KBDL TAF...HIGH CONFIDENCE ON TRENDS...MODERATE CONFIDENCE ON
TIMING. CONDITIONS LOWERING TO LIFR/IFR IN SNOW...THEN MIXING
WITH FREEZING RAIN/SLEET AROUND 09Z-12Z. MAINLY RAIN/SLEET/SNOW
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.

OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...

WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY... VFR IN GENERAL.  WEST WINDS
WEDNESDAY WILL INCREASE AS DAYTIME SUNSHINE PULLS STRONGER WIND
GUSTS DOWN FROM ALOFT.  WIND GUSTS SHOULD REACH 30-35 KNOTS IN THE
AFTERNOON. SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS THURSDAY WITH BRIEF MVFR CIGS/IFR
VSBYS POSSIBLE IN SNOW SHOWERS.

SATURDAY...VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT.

SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS SHIFT TO THE EAST TONIGHT...INCREASING TO

EAST COAST DURING THE DAY TUESDAY. SEAS BUILD WITH THE INCREASING
WINDS. EXPECT SEAS IN THE 10 TO 15 FOOT RANGE. EXPECT GALE FORCE
WINDS TO CONTINUE THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT.

OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...

WEDNESDAY...POTENTIAL FOR WEST GALES IN FREQUENT WIND GUSTS TO 35
KNOTS.  WINDS DIMINISH WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

THURSDAY-FRIDAY...NORTH-NORTHWEST WINDS INCREASE TO SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY LEVELS LATE THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY.
