AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
336 PM EST WED NOV 19 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE REGION MOVES EAST TONIGHT...THEN A WEAK
DISTURBANCE MAY BRING A FEW SNOW SHOWERS TO THE SOUTH COAST
TONIGHT. ANOTHER SHOT OF UNSEASONABLY COLD AIR IS EXPECTED
THURSDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY. A SIGNIFICANT WARM-UP IS IN STORE BY
SUNDAY INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. A STORM MOVING OUT OF TEXAS WILL
LIKELY BRING RAIN TO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND SUNDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY
NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...

THROUGH 7 PM/00Z
HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE AXIS IS OVERHEAD AND SHIFTING EAST. THE LEADING
EDGE OF WARM ADVECTION CLOUDS IS MOVING ACROSS WESTERN NY AND
WESTERN/CENTRAL PA. THESE CLOUDS EXTRAPOLATE TO THE HUDSON VALLEY
BY 7 PM. THERE MAY BE A FEW HIGH CLOUDS OUT AHEAD OF THIS.

WE/RE ALSO WATCHING CLOUD BANDS OVER THE OCEAN THAT ARE SOUTH OF
THE ISLANDS. THE BANDS ARE ORIENTED WEST-EAST...BUT AS THE RIDGE
AXIS SHIFTS EAST THE MOTIVATING FLOW WILL BECOME MORE SOUTHWEST-
NORTHEAST AND SHOULD EVENTUALLY TURN THESE BANDS TOWARD THE CAPE
AND ISLANDS AND POSSIBLY A LITTLE FARTHER WEST ALONG THE SOUTH
COAST.

TONIGHT...
THE TWO CLOUD AREAS APPROACHING THIS EVENING WILL MOVE ACROSS
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND TONIGHT. THE OCEAN CLOUD BANDS WILL MOVE UP
ACROSS THE CAPE AND ISLANDS EARLY TONIGHT. MEANWHILE
EXTRAPOLATION WOULD BRING CLOUDS IN FROM THE WEST AROUND 9-10 PM
/02Z-03Z.

THE SURFACE LOW WILL MOVE FROM THE GREAT LAKES OVER
CANADA...PASSING TO OUR NORTH. THIS INCREASES THE PRESSURE
GRADIENT SURFACE AND ALOFT AND BRINGS INCREASING SOUTHWEST WINDS.
A 40 TO 50 KNOT LOW LEVEL JET WILL ENTER NEW ENGLAND AROUND
MIDNIGHT AND REMAIN OVERHEAD THROUGH THE NIGHT. THE BEST JET
DYNAMICS WILL REMAIN TO OUR WEST AND NORTH. SO ANY PCPN DIRECTLY
CONNECTED TO THE CLIPPER LOW WILL BE LIGHT AND MOSTLY TO OUR
NORTH. THE SOUTHWEST FLOW OFF THE OCEAN WILL BRING GREATER
INSTABILITY INTO THE SOUTH COAST AREA...TOTAL TOTALS ARE FORECAST
IN THE MID 40S WHICH WOULD SUPPORT SCATTERED RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS.

SO THE FORECAST WILL BRING INCREASING CLOUDS...CHANCE POPS OVER
THE CAPE/ISLANDS/SOUTH COAST...AND INCREASING WIND OVER THE OCEAN
AND ALONG COASTAL AREAS. FOR MIN TEMPS WE STAYED CLOSE TO
GUIDENCE WITH VALUES IN THE 20S INLAND AND LOW TO MID 30S
CAPE/ISLANDS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...

THURSDAY...
THE CLIPPER PASSES NORTH OF US DURING THE DAY AND SWINGS A COLD
FRONT THROUGH THE REGION. WE MAY START OUT WITH SOME CLOUDS AS THE
FRONT MOVES THROUGH BUT SHOULD SEE CLEARING FROM WEST TO EAST
DURING THE DAY. SUNSHINE WILL PROMOTE MIXING UP TO 850 MB AND DRAW
SOME OF THAT WIND TO THE SURFACE OVER LAND. THE 40 KNOT WINDS
AT 850 MB FIRST THING IN THE MORNING WILL DIMINISH TO 25-30 KNOTS
INLAND...BUT MAY LINGER OVER THE CAPE AND ISLANDS. THE WINDS THAT
ARE THERE AROUND MIDDAY WILL BE MIXED TO THE SURFACE IN GUSTS. WE
USED 25 KNOTS NORTHWEST TO 35 KNOTS CAPE AND ISLANDS. TEMPERATURES
INITIALLY IN THE MIXED LAYER WOULD SUPPORT SFC MAX TEMPS IN THE
40S. BUT COLD ADVECTION FROM THE WEST WILL LOWER THESE VALUES IN
THE AFTERNOON SO MAX TEMPS SHOULD BE MORE LIKE 35 TO 45...COLDEST
NORTHWEST.

THURSDAY NIGHT...
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE PLAINS AND LOW PRESSURE OVER THE MARITIMES
WILL FAVOR WEST WINDS...BUT THE GRADIENT WILL BE DIMINISHING AND
SO THE WINDS WILL ALSO DIMINISH. A SHORTWAVE MOVES OVERHEAD AND
MAY SUPPORT A FEW CLOUDS ESPECIALLY NORTH OF THE MASS PIKE. BUT
THE AIRMASS WILL BE DRY SO SKY COVER WILL BE LIMITED. THE COLDEST
TEMPS AND CONTOUR HEIGHTS WILL MOVE IN THURSDAY NIGHT...SO TEMPS
WILL BE A FEW DEGREES COOLER THAN TONIGHT. WE USED UPPER TEENS TO
MID 20S.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...

* ANOMALOUS COLD THROUGH SATURDAY
* WARMER SUNDAY THROUGH END OF PERIOD
* MAINLY RAIN LIKELY MONDAY

OVERVIEW AND MODEL PREFERENCES...
OPERATIONAL MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW REASONABLY GOOD AGREEMENT
THROUGH THE LONG TERM. THE LONGWAVE TROF ACROSS THE REGION WILL
BEGIN A SLOW LIFT TOWARD THE EAST NORTHEAST AS INCOMING PACIFIC
TROF FORCES RIDGE TO THE E. THIS PATTERN SHIFT IS WELL CAPTURED BY
BOTH OPERATIONAL RUNS AND ENSEMBLES ALIKE...SO CONFIDENCE REMAINS
RELATIVELY HIGH THAT A TRANSITION FROM BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES
TO POSSIBLY EVEN ABOVE NORMAL IS EXPECTED OVER THE WEEKEND. WHILE
THERE ARE SOME SLIGHT DIFFERENCES REGARDING THIS WAVE AND IT/S
ATTENDANT COLD FRONT FOR SUN-MON...EVEN HERE A BLEND OF GUIDANCE
CAPTURES THE PATTERN WELL. SUGGESTING A WARM INSIDE RUNNER. GIVEN
THIS AGREEMENT...A GENERAL BLEND WILL BE USED FOR THIS UPDATE
INCLUDING THE GFS/ECMWF AND SOME OF THE PREVIOUS FORECASTER.

DETAILS...

FRIDAY INTO FRI NIGHT... ONE MORE REINFORCING SHOT OF COLD AIR
EXPECTED EARLY FRI IN THE FORM OF A MODEST ARCTIC FRONT ATTENDANT
TO THE KICKER WAVE WHICH WILL SHIFT THE PATTERN E. THEREFORE...FOR
THIS PERIOD...EXPECT CONTINUED BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES. THE
FRONT WILL ALSO INTRODUCE YET ANOTHER ROUND OF GUSTY W-NW WINDS
YIELDING BLUSTERY CONDITIONS. SOUNDINGS LOOK MAINLY DRY...SO
EXPECT MAINLY JUST SOME CLOUDS WITH THIS FRONTAL PASSAGE.

SAT AND SUN...
UPPER LVL SHIFT AS CUTOFF/LONGWAVE TROF SHIFTS TO THE E ALLOWING
STACKED RETURN FLOW WITH GULF REGION CONNECTIONS.
THEREFORE...AFTER A COOL START ON SAT...EXPECT TEMPS TO GRADUALLY
INCREASE THROUGH SUN. WARM FRONT WILL BE APPROACHING AS OCCLUDING
SYSTEM MOVES INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION. AT THIS TIME...HANGING
LOW-MID LVL RIDGE SHOULD KEEP MOST OF SRN NEW ENGLAND DRY WITH THE
BULK OF OVERRUNING PRECIP ACROSS NRN NEW ENGLAND UNTIL COLD
FRONTAL/OCCLUSION PRECIP APPROACHES LATE IN THE DAY. H85 TEMPS ON
SUN SUGGEST HIGHS MAY ACTUALLY BE ABOVE NORMAL BY SUN IN SPITE OF
INCREASING CLOUD COVER AND OVERALL COLUMN MOISTURE.

SUN NIGHT INTO MON...
WHAT LOOKS LIKE A WARM OCCLUSION WILL MOVE ACROSS THE REGION LATE
SUN NIGHT INTO EARLY MON. DYNAMICS ARE FAIRLY ROBUST HERE...WITH
POTENTIAL FOR 60 KT H85 LLJ. COMBINE THIS WITH 1.25 INCH PWATS
/NEARLY 3 STD DEV ABOVE NORMAL/ AND SETUP SUGGESTS POTENTIAL FOR
HEAVY RAIN WITH MODEST CONVECTIVE ELEMENTS. INDEED THE COLUMN
LOOKS TO BE WARM ENOUGH FOR ALL RAIN BY THE TIME THIS PRECIP
BEGINS. GIVEN THE STRONG DYNAMIC POTENTIAL FOR THIS SYSTEM...WILL
HAVE TO MONITOR FOR PRECIP/WIND HEADLINES. A SECONDARY LOW PRES
MAY ATTEMPT TO MAKE A NORTHWEST PASS ON MON...CONTINUING THE
UNSETTELD WX...BUT THERE ARE SOME DISCREPANCIES REGARDING THE
MOISTURE BY THIS POINT.

TUE INTO WED...
ALTHOUGH ANOTHER /ALBEIT LESS DEEP OR COLD/ TROF WILL ATTEMPT TO
SETTLE ACROSS THE NRN CONUS INTO THE GREAT LAKES...A BLOCKING
PATTERN SUGGESTS THE CORE OF THE COLD AIR MAY REMAIN TO THE W AT
THIS TIME.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT.
MODERATE...30 TO 60 PERCENT.
HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT.

SHORT TERM...HIGH CONFIDENCE.

TONIGHT...INCREASING SOUTHWEST FLOW OVERNIGHT WITH INCREASING SKY
COVER. MOST AREAS WILL BE VFR WITH CLOUD BASES LOWERING TO
4000-5000 FEET. SOUTHWEST WIND OFF THE OCEAN MAY BRING SCATTERED
SNOW SHOWERS TO PARTS OF THE SOUTH COAST OF RI AND MASS INCLUDING
THE CAPE AND ISLANDS. CIGS WOULD LOWER TO MVFR IN/NEAR ANY SNOW
SHOWERS WITH VSBYS OF 3 MILES. PROBABILITY OF SNOW IS TOO LOW FOR
IT TO APPEAR IN THE TAFS AT THIS TIME.

THURSDAY...VFR. CLEARING SKIES. WEST-SOUTHWEST WINDS GUSTING 20-30
KNOTS EXCEPT 30-35 KNOTS CAPE AND ISLANDS.

THURSDAY NIGHT...CLEARING SKIES. WEST WINDS DIMINISHING INLAND
BUT GUSTING 20-30 KNOTS ALONG THE COAST AND ISLANDS.

KBOS TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE.

KBDL TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE.

OUTLOOK...FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...

FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE.
MAINLY VFR. NW GUSTS POSSIBLE 20 TO 25 KTS ON FRI. LIGHTER WINDS
SAT.

SUNDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.
MAINLY VFR. SW WIND GUSTS INCREASE TO AROUND 25 KTS AGAIN.

&&

.MARINE...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT.
MODERATE...30 TO 60 PERCENT.
HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT.

HIGH CONFIDENCE THROUGH THURSDAY.

TONIGHT...SOUTHWEST WINDS ALOFT WILL INCREASE DURING THE NIGHT.
THE COMBINATION OF COLD AIR ALOFT AND RELATIVELY WARM OCEAN
TEMPS...10-14C...WILL ENCOURAGE SOME OF THIS WIND DOWN TO THE
OCEAN SURFACE. THE SOUTHWEST LOW LEVEL JET HAS SPEEDS OF 35 TO 40
KNOTS...SO THAT MEANS A GOOD POTENTIAL FOR GALE FORCE SOUTHWESTERS
LATER TONIGHT. A GALE WARNING HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE OUTER
WATERS/SOUTHERN SOUNDS/CAPE COD BAY WITH SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES
FOR NARRAGANSETT BAY/BOSTON HARBOR/MASS BAY. MASS BAY WINDS ARE
BORDERLINE AND MAY NEED TO BE UPGRADED OVERNIGHT.

THURSDAY...CONTINUED WEST TO SOUTHWEST WINDS AS A COLD FRONT
APPROACHES THE WATERS. CONTINUED SPEEDS OF 35 KNOTS MOST WATERS
WHERE GALES WARNINGS WILL CONTINUE. CONTINUED 25-30 KNOTS CLOSER
TO SHORE WHERE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL CONTINUE.

THURSDAY NIGHT...WINDS AND SEAS WILL DIMINISH DURING THE NIGHT.
BUT WEST-SOUTHWEST GALES MAY LINGER ON THE OUTER WATERS FOR A FEW
HOURS EARLY IN THE NIGHT BEFORE GOING SUB-GALE.

OUTLOOK...FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...

FRI...HIGH CONFIDENCE. WINDS AND SEAS REMAIN ABOVE SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY THRESHOLDS...WITH GUSTS APPROACHING 30 KT AND SHIFTING TO
THE NW ON FRI. SEAS START AROUND 6-10 FT...BUT THEN GRADUALLY
DIMINISH THROUGH THE PERIOD.

SAT...HIGH CONFIDENCE.
WINDS SHIFT TO THE W-SE BUT REMAIN BELOW SCA CRITERIA AND SEAS
ALSO BELOW SCA THRESHOLDS.

SUN...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.
WINDS SHIFT TO THE S-SW...WITH GUSTS UP TO SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY
THRESHOLDS AT LEAST...BUT MAY HAVE A FEW GALE FORCE GUSTS. SEAS
INCREASE TO 5-7 FT ON THE OCEAN WATERS.
