SIPPRELL

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
709 PM EST SUN JAN 20 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A COASTAL STORM WILL BRING ACCUMULATING SNOWFALL ACROSS MOST OF
THE REGION MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY. OTHERWISE EXPECT BITTER COLD
TEMPS FOR NEXT WEEK FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM BY THE END OF
THE WEEK.

&&

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

7 PM UPDATE...
COLD FRONT MOVING ACROSS CAPE COD AND WILL CROSS THE ISLANDS EARLY
TONIGHT. WIND GUSTS HAVE COME DOWN AT ALL SITES...SO WE ARE
ENDING THE WIND ADVISORY FOR ALL ZONES. EXPECT GUSTS 20-30 KNOTS
THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE NIGHT...DIMINISHING OVERNIGHT.

OTHERWISE JUST SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO TEMPS AND DEWPOINTS BASED ON
OBSERVED WEATHER.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
RELATIVELY QUIET WEATHER EXPECTED TONIGHT...AT LEAST ONCE THE
WINDS DIMINISH BEHIND A COLD FRONT. MUCH COLDER AIR WILL ARRIVE...
AND SET THE STAGE FOR A STORM ARRIVING LATE MONDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A MUCH COLDER DAY IS ON TAP FOR OUR REGION MONDAY AS 850 MB TEMPS
WILL ONLY BE AROUND -15C. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL NOT REACH THE
FREEZING MARK...EXCEPT PERHAPS ACROSS NANTUCKET AND THE OUTER
CAPE. THIS MEANS ANY SHOWERS WHICH ARRIVES DURING THE AFTERNOON
AND EVENING WILL BE ALL SNOW...AND REMAIN ALL SNOW HEADING INTO
THE EVENING.

CLOUDS WILL BE ON THE INCREASE DURING THE MORNING HOURS AHEAD OF
AN APPROACHING SHORTWAVE. THIS WILL RESULT IN WARM ADVECTION AND
ALLOW FOR SOME SNOW SHOWERS TO PROBABLY DEVELOP DURING THE
AFTERNOON. THE MODELS ARE INITIALLY QUITE SPOTTY WITH THEM...SO
NOT SURE HOW WIDESPREAD THEY WILL BE DURING THE AFTERNOON/EARLY
EVENING. THINK THE MAIN FOCUS WILL BE ALONG THE SOUTH COAST...AS
THAT IS WHERE THE INITIAL CONVERGENT ZONE WILL SETUP. ALSO...MAY
EVEN SEE SOME UNUSUAL OCEAN ENHANCEMENT ALONG THIS REGION AS
850 MB TEMPS WILL BE -10C WITH SOUTHWEST WINDS. ANY ACCUMULATIONS
THROUGH EARLY MONDAY EVENING WOULD PROBABLY BE LIGHT.

THE MAJORITY OF THE SNOW SHOULD FALL MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY
MORNING. STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH THE EXACT TRACK OF A LOW
PRESSURE. SOME OF THE 20/12Z GUIDANCE...ESPECIALLY THE
NAM AND 20/21 SREF...BRING MUCH HIGHER PRECIPITATION TOTALS TO
EASTERN MA. EVEN THOUGH THE NAM SOLUTION WAS ALONG THE WESTERN
EDGE OF THE MODEL SOLUTIONS...DECIDED TO ISSUE A WINTER STORM
WATCH TO COVER THIS POTENTIAL.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
BIG PICTURE...

MOST OF THE LONG TERM PERIOD IS DOMINATED BY UPPER LOW CENTERED
OVER QUEBEC AND RESULTING CYCLONIC UPPER FLOW OVER THE EASTERN
USA. THE AIRFLOW THROUGH THURSDAY COMES OUT OF THE ARCTIC...AND
AFTER A BRIEF INTERRUPTION AT THE END OF THE WEEK THIS ARCTIC FLOW
RESUMES BY NEXT SUNDAY. CLEARLY A COLD PERIOD AHEAD.

ONE STORM OF CONCERN TAKES PLACE DURING THE PERIOD.  A NORTH PACIFIC
SHORTWAVE BREACHES THE WEST COAST RIDGE AND THEN DIGS INTO THE
EASTERN USA.  THIS BRIEFLY INTERRUPTS THE ARCTIC FLOW...NOT THAT IT
CAUSES ANY SIGNIFICANT WARMUP...AND GENERATES A PLAINS LOW THAT
RACES UP THE OHIO VALLEY AND PASSES NEW ENGLAND FRIDAY.

THE DAILIES...

TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT...LOW PRESSURE MOVES OFFSHORE TUESDAY
WITH NORTHWEST WINDS AND COLD ADVECTION ACROSS NEW ENGLAND DURING
THE AFTERNOON. SURFACE PRESSURE RISE FORECASTS ON GFS AND ECMWF
ARE 4-7MB/6 HOURS TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING AND DIMINISH BY
WEDNESDAY MORNING. COLD ADVECTION BEHIND THE DEPARTING STORM
YIELDS MIXING TO AT LEAST 900 MB AND POSSIBLY TO 850 MB...WHERE
WINDS ARE 30-35 KNOTS. OUR FORECAST FOR GUSTS WILL BE 25-30
KNOTS...BUT THERE WILL BE POTENTIAL FOR HIGHER GUSTS. TEMPS AT 850
MB WILL BE -17C TO -20C WHICH SUPPORTS MAX TEMPS IN THE 20S.

THIS COLD AIR WILL MOVE OVER 4-7C WATER TEMPS CREATING STEEP LAPSE
RATES OVER WATER WHILE NORTHWEST WINDS SHOW LITTLE DIRECTIONAL SHEAR
THROUGH THE LOWEST SEVERAL THOUSAND FEET OF THE ATMOSPHERE. SO OCEAN
EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS SHOULD DEVELOP OFF THE COAST.  THE OUTER CAPE
HAS THE BEST CHANCE AT CATCHING ACCUMS...BUT THE DIRECTION MAINLY
FAVORS BANDS SETTING UP JUST NORTH/EAST OF PROVINCETOWN AND TRURO.

EXPECT DIMINISHING POPS TUESDAY AFTERNOON WITH NIL POPS OVER LAND BY
TUESDAY NIGHT.

WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS TO THE WEST
WITH A NORTHWEST FLOW ACROSS THE REGION. A WEAK SHORTWAVE MOVES
THROUGH THE UPPER FLOW. MODEL RH FIELDS SHOW AVAILABLE MOISTURE AT
CLOUD LEVELS BUT VERY DRY AT THE SURFACE. MIXING REACHES AT LEAST
TO 900 MB WEDNESDAY BUT MAY BE SHALLOWER ON THURSDAY AS THE COLD
ADVECTION DIMINISHES. EQUIVALENT MIXING TEMPS WILL BE -20C TO
-24C BOTH DAYS...SO MAX TEMPS SHOULD BE ROUGHLY MID TEENS TO LOWER
20S. MIN TEMPS UPSTREAM ARE BETWEEN -10F AND +10F...BUT ARE MUCH
COLDER WHERE THE WIND HAS BEEN CALM. WE WILL FAVOR THESE
TEMPERATURE RANGES IN THE FORECAST. COLD FLOW OVER THE WATERS
CONTINUES WITH DIMINISHING/SHIFTING WINDS THURSDAY AFTERNOON. WE
WILL MAINTAIN OCEAN EFFECT SNOWS THROUGH MIDDAY THURSDAY AND THEN
DIMINISH.

THURSDAY NIGHT-FRIDAY...TIMING UNCERTAINTY IN THE LONG RANGE
FLOW...BUT GENERAL AGREEMENT IN THE MODELS THAT LOW PRESSURE WILL
APPROACH THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY THURSDAY NIGHT AND PASS NEW
ENGLAND EITHER FRIDAY OR FRIDAY NIGHT. THE 12Z ECMWF SEEMS TO BE
POINTING TO AN INLAND TRACK ACROSS NY AND SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND...BUT THIS DOESN/T SEEM RIGHT WITH COLD AIR OVER OUR
REGION.

OUR PRELIMINARY TRACK WOULD BE ALONG OR SOUTH OF THE SOUTH
COAST. MODEL QPF SHOWS 0.50 TO 0.75 INCH QPF IN AT LEAST SOUTHERN
PARTS OF THE FORECAST AREA...AND TEMPERATURE PROFILES WOULD
SUGGEST MAINLY SNOW. SO THIS WOULD SUGGEST A POTENTIAL FOR 6
INCHES OR MORE ACROSS AT LEAST A PART OF THE FORECAST AREA. THIS
SYSTEM WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

SATURDAY-SUNDAY...UPPER TROUGH AXIS MOVES OVERHEAD ON SATURDAY.
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE REGION THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
THE TREND WILL BE FOR A RETURN TO DRY AND COLD.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
OVERVIEW...HIGH CONFIDENCE THROUGH TONIGHT WITH MODERATE
CONFIDENCE LATE MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT.

TONIGHT...MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS. GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS WILL
DIMINISH OVERNIGHT.

MONDAY...VFR CONDITIONS EARLY MAY GIVE WAY TO MVFR-IFR CONDITIONS
DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING IN SOME SNOW SHOWERS.
HOWEVER...THE TIMING AND AREAL EXTENT OF ANY SNOW REMAINS
UNCERTAIN.

MONDAY NIGHT-TUESDAY MORNING...MODERATE CONFIDENCE OVERALL.
HIGHER CONFIDENCE IN FORECAST TRENDS...LOWER CONFIDENCE IN TIMING.
MVFR/IFR CIGS/VSBYS IN SNOW...AND A PERIOD OF LIFR POSSIBLE AROUND
DAYBREAK.

KBOS TAF...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAF.

KBDL TAF...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAF.

OUTLOOK...TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY...

TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT...SKY/VSBYS CONDITIONS IMPROVE TO
VFR. NORTHWEST WINDS GUSTING 25 TO 30 KNOTS. OCEAN EFFECT SNOWS
DEVELOPING OFF CAPE COD AND NANTUCKET...WITH MVFR CIGS/VSBYS IN
ANY SNOW SHOWERS.

WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY...
VFR ON LAND. MVFR IN OCEAN SNOW SHOWERS EAST OF CAPE COD.

THURSDAY NIGHT-FRIDAY...CIG/VSBY CONDITIONS LOWERING TO AT LEAST
MVFR AND POSSIBLY IFR IN DEVELOPING SNOW.

&&

.MARINE...
HIGH CONFIDENCE THROUGH MONDAY. MODERATE CONFIDENCE MONDAY NIGHT
INTO TUESDAY MORNING.

TONIGHT...GALE WARNINGS CONTINUE FOR THE OUTER WATERS BUT WITH A
DIMINISHING TREND EXPECTED OVERNIGHT. GALES HAVE BEEN CONVERTED TO
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES ON THE INNER WATERS THROUGH THE REMAINDER
OF THE NIGHT.

MONDAY...PRESSURE GRADIENT WEAKENS CONSIDERABLY AS WEAK LOW
PRESSURE BEGINS TO DEVELOP SOUTH OF THE WATERS. WINDS/SEAS SHOULD
DIMINISH BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY THRESHOLDS. HOWEVER...SOME
SNOW SHOULD DEVELOP AT LEAST ACROSS THE SOUTHERN WATERS BY LATE
AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING AND REDUCE VISIBILITIES.

MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY MORNING...WINDS AND SEAS SHOULD INCREASE
ONCE AGAIN AS A LOW PRESSURE APPROACHES THE WATERS. WILL LIKELY
NEED AT LEAST A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY...BUT THERE IS A LOW
PROBABILITY FOR GALE FORCE GUSTS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN OUTER COASTAL
WATERS.

OUTLOOK...TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY...

TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND TUESDAY NIGHT...MODERATE CONFIDENCE
COASTAL LOW MOVES OFF PAST NOVA SCOTIA. STRONG PRESSURE RISES
ACROSS THE WATERS WILL BRING INCREASING NORTHWEST WINDS...DRAWING
COLD AIR ACROSS THE WATERS. ALL OF THIS WILL GENERATE 35 KNOT
NORTHWEST GALES. THE WINDS WILL ALSO BUILD SEAS OF 5-8 FEET
ESPECIALLY ON THE OUTER WATERS.

THE FLOW OF COLDER AIR OVER THE ROUGH SEAS WILL LEAD TO A CHANCE
OF FREEZING SPRAY. THE COLD AIR OVER THE WATERS WILL ALSO MEAN
OCEAN-EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS EAST AND SOUTHEAST OF MASSACHUSETTS.
EXPECT LOCALLY POOR VISIBILITY IN THOSE SHOWERS.

WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.
CONTINUED NORTHWEST GALES WEDNESDAY...THEN DIMINISHING WIND
THURSDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OVERHEAD. CONTINUED FREEZING SPRAY
AND OCEAN EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS UNTIL WINDS DIMINISH ON THURSDAY.

FRIDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE
ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE AREA WILL MOVE TOWARD NEW ENGLAND...BRINGING
SNOW ON FRIDAY. THE PATH OF THE STORM CENTER LOOKS TO BE ALONG THE
SOUTH COAST...WHICH WOULD KEEP WINDS LIGHT UNTIL IT MOVES PAST.
WINDS SHOULD THEN INCREASE OUT OF THE NORTHWEST WITH SPEEDS OF
25-30 KNOTS. THIS WIND WILL GENERATE SEAS OF 5-9 FEET. THERE WILL
AGAIN BE ISSUED OF FREEZING SPRAY AND OCEAN-EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS.
