Small Craft Advisory 79, NWS Boston/Norton, MA

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
956 PM EDT FRI JUL 19 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE NEAR BERMUDA WILL CONTINUE TO CIRCULATE HOT AND
HUMID CONDITIONS INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND THROUGH SATURDAY.
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE GREAT LAKES. STORMS
WILL BE MOST NUMEROUS ACROSS WESTERN PORTIONS OF CONNECTICUT AND
MASSACHUSETTS ALONG WITH A FEW BECOMING STRONG TO SEVERE. RELIEF
FROM THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL ARRIVE SUNDAY AND CONTINUE THROUGH
THE REST OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
950 PM UPDATE...
IT REMAINS VERY UNSTABLE FOR THIS TIME OF THE EVENING WITH
MLCAPES STILL 2000-3000 J/KG. WATCHING AN ORGANIZED CLUSTER OF
STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS MOVING EAST FROM UPSTATE NY AND
APPROACHING OUR NW ZONES. THIS ACTIVITY IS FIRING WHERE MID LEVEL
TEMPS ARE ABOUT 2C COOLER. IN ADDITION DEEPER MOISTURE IS A BIT
LESS ACROSS SNE. SO THIS LEADS US TO BELIEVE WE SHOULD SEE A
GRADUAL WEAKENING TREND AS THESE STORMS APPROACH NW MA AND S NH.
THE HRRR CONTINUES TO INDICATE WEAKENING CONVECTION WILL AFFECT
OUR NW ZONES DURING THE NEXT 1-2 HOURS BUT CANT RULE OUT A STRONG
STORM WITH GUSTY WINDS. WILL MONITOR CLOSELY. KEPT CHC POPS ACROSS
NW ZONES UNTIL JUST AFTER MIDNIGHT.

OTHERWISE...A DRY BUT WARM NIGHT ACROSS THE REST OF SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND. LOWS WILL ONLY BOTTOM OUT IN THE 70S AND DOWNTOWN BOSTON
MAY NOT DROP BELOW 80!

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
*** STRONG TO SEVERE TSTMS LIKELY SAT ESP WESTERN NEW ENG ***

SATURDAY...

FORECAST THEME REMAINS THE SAME...NOT AS HOT AS TODAY BUT HIGHS
STILL IMPRESSIVE WITH MAXS IN THE LOW TO MID 90S AWAY FROM THE
SOUTH COAST. HUMIDITY WILL REMAIN HIGH WITH DEW PTS IN THE U60S TO
L70S. THEREFORE HAVE ISSUED A HEAT ADVISORY FOR MUCH OF
CT/RI/EASTERN MA AND SOUTHEAST NH FOR HEAT INDICES OF 100-104 SAT
AFTN.

AS FOR CONVECTION...TEMPS REMAIN WARM ALOFT BUT THIS SHOULD BE
OFFSET BY MODEST SYNOPTIC SCALE LIFT AS MID LEVEL FLOW BECOMES
CYCLONIC AND RRQ OF UPPER JET STREAK SLIDES ACROSS NY AND NEW
ENGLAND LATER IN THE DAY. PREFRONTAL TROUGH CONVERGENCE SHOULD AID
DEVELOPMENT. THIS FORCING FOR ASCENT SHOULD YIELD A STRONG
RESPONSE GIVEN MAGNITUDE OF INSTABILITY WITH ENSEMBLE MEAN CAPES
OF 1200-1800J/KG ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. DEEP LAYER SHEAR
INCREASES TO 30-35 KT BY LATE AFTN ACROSS WESTERN NEW ENGLAND.
THIS WILL BE SUFFICIENT TO ORGANIZE CONVECTION INTO MULTICELLULAR
LINE SEGMENTS. STRONGEST FORCING AND WIND FIELDS ARE ACROSS
WESTERN NEW ENGLAND...THEREFORE PROBABILITY OF STRONG TO SEVERE
TSTMS IS ACROSS THIS REGION. ELSEWHERE CONVECTION MAY NOT BE AS
WIDESPREAD...MORE SCATTERED OR ISOLATED ESPECIALLY SOUTHEAST MA.
MAIN HAZARDS WITH STORMS WILL BE STRONG/DAMAGING WINDS AND HEAVY
RAINFALL WITH PWATS OF +2 STD.

SATURDAY NIGHT...
TSTMS WILL DISSIPATE FROM NW TO SE WITH SUNSET BUT MAY LINGER
ALONG THE SOUTH COAST AS THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS SLOW TO EXIT.
POST FRONTAL AIRMASS OVERSPREADS THE REGION FROM NW TO SE WITH A
VERY NOTICEABLE CHANGE IN THE FORM OF LOWER HUMIDITY AND COOLER
TEMPS. THIS MAY BE DELAYED UNTIL SUNDAY ALONG THE SOUTH COAST
GIVEN THE SLOWER FRONTAL DEPARTURE.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
HEADLINES...

* RELIEF FROM HEAT AND HUMIDITY SUN AND MON W/MAINLY DRY WEATHER
* SCT SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS MON NIGHT THROUGH FRI BUT NOT A WASHOUT
* SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS MAY BE MOST WIDESPREAD ON TUE
* NOT EXPECTING EXCESSIVE HEAT TO RETURN NEXT WEEK

DETAILS...

SUNDAY AND MONDAY... RELIEF FINALLY ARRIVES FROM THE EXCESSIVE HEAT
AND HUMIDITY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTH BEHIND THE
COLD FRONT.  LOW RISK FOR A FEW LEFT OVER SHOWERS SUNDAY MORNING
NEAR THE SOUTH COAST.  OTHERWISE...DRY WEATHER DOMINATES WITH
COMFORTABLE HUMIDITY LEVELS. HIGH TEMPS WILL STILL BE WELL INTO THE
80S ACROSS MOST LOCATIONS WITH AT LEAST PARTIAL SUNSHINE.  IT WILL
BE A BIT COOLER ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST WITH ONSHORE FLOW...BUT
HIGHS SHOULD STILL REACH INTO THE UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S.

MONDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY... UPPER LEVEL TROUGH DEVELOPING ACROSS
THE NORTHERN GREAT LAKES WILL SEND A COUPLE OF SHORTWAVES AT US IN
WEST TO SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT.  TIMING IS UNCERTAIN BUT THERE WILL BE
THE THREAT OF SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AT TIMES...BUT NOT
EXPECTING A WASHOUT OVER THE ENTIRE PERIOD. SOME MODEL INDICATIONS
ARE THAT THE ACTIVITY MAY BE MOST WIDESPREAD ON TUE...WHERE WE WENT
WITH SOME LOW END LIKELY POPS FOR MUCH OF THE REGION.  THE OVERALL
SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL APPEARS LOW GIVEN LIMITED INSTABILITY.
HOWEVER...HIGH PWATS WILL RESULT IN THE POTENTIAL FOR LOCALIZED
HEAVY RAINFALL WITH THE ACTIVITY.

AS FOR TEMPERATURES....THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE ATLANTIC WILL
BE FURTHER EAST THAN WHAT WE HAVE SEEN THIS WEEK.
THEREFORE...EXCESSIVE HEAT IS NOT EXPECTED AND HIGH TEMPERATURES
WILL BE FAIRLY SEASONABLE FOR LATE JULY.

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY... THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL REMAIN ANCHORED
ACROSS THE UPPER GREAT LAKES PLACING US IN SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT.
WHILE THE ENTIRE PERIOD WILL NOT BE A WASHOUT...SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT
WILL ALLOW ADDITIONAL SHORTWAVES TO TRACK INTO OUR REGION AT TIMES.
WILL CONTINUE CHANCE POPS FOR SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS.
LOW CONFIDENCE ON THE EXACT TIMING.  TEMPS WILL REMAIN FAIRLY
SEASONABLE AND NOT EXPECTING A RETURN TO EXCESSIVE HEAT.

SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS COULD GRAZE NORTHWEST MA/SOUTHWEST NH AFTER 10
OR 11 PM.

SAT...STRONG TSTMS LIKELY DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING
FROM WEST TO EAST WITH GUSTY WINDS AND HEAVY RAIN THE MAIN THREATS.
